In the deep snow maybe. Otherwise I have no problems. Handles like a positraction. Even on sand I can punch the gas and go straight. You must be running over the remains ouside a sushi bar.

Maybe if you gun it on a slick surface that will happen..

Haven't happened to me - yet, but I have peeled rubber a couple times making a turn while stomping on the gas.

I had a 1800 Goldwing Trike with a Champion straight axle kit That would drift threw a sharp cruve and smoke the back tire. I have a 2011 Triglide that I can't get to do the same it gets fantastic traction I have had the Triglide skip the front tire when I take off and make a turn, It just skips the front tire and goes straight, but never fishtail but I only run 20 psi in my rear tires. I bet if I hit it real hard it would pull a wheel stand.

Be careful in the rain, when the tires hit the wet pavement you can be all over the road before you know it..

Yeah GBSG, the first time the front end skipped it scared me too. Fishtailing is really easy on a black top surface that's recently been coated with that stuff that looks line watered down asphaht. But the squealling is pretty loud. Probably something you wouldn't want to do in front of your neighbors house.

Be Carefull on wet pavement. found that out first hand on our trip to north carolina. Actually it was my own fault, it was raining really hard and hard to see the exit ramp, when i did it it was right upon me but still figured i had enough time to turn.needless to say, i ended up going sideways down the exit ramp and luckly pulled it around and straightend it up. like i said probley was more of me Not being carefull then anything else.
