Am looking at the idea of a trike for a trip in the USA next year. My wife enjoys riding pillion and is not 100% happy riding in my sidecar which is connected to a 1990 R80 GS we have ridden(without sidecar) around NZ, Australia, USA and Canada. I took it solo to Chile and Argentina last year and now we are talking trike. We do fairly long distance leisurely touring and camp 95% of the time except when visiting rellies. Looks like a good forum.:yes::beerchug:
