I've pulled a rear wheel up taking city (90 degree) corners too energetically. The thing is that, due to the differential, as soon as the wheel comes up, all the power goes to the airborne wheel, and you start slowing down, causing it to drop again.

YMMV

Yeah that is just bananas. If that trike rolls over completely, that guy is done for

That guy is a accident waiting to happen

I have lifted the inner wheel more than once or twice during some aggressive cornering, but only about 6 inches or so. My desire to be in the circus left a long time ago!

That video is pretty funny, but not for my riding style

Makes me wonder if the trike is a 2019-2020 that hasn't had the recall done.

Kinda looks like what has been discussed about trikes that have the issue.

They will flip over and eventually this individual will wind up like a gentleman in Florida did, he wound up with a punctured lung and some broken ribs. There is a strange sharp curve that he went through (possibly a little hot) and went over.

Why in the world would anyone want to abuse, and beat on their motorcycle like that??

It's like these Azzwipe's that put their bike on a burn/smokeout pit and burn their rear tire off.. just to show off.................Totally freak'n crazy and just plain stupid.............:shortbus:

I may not be the smartest apple in the barrel , but I sure would not even think about doing that..

I believe a little different than you do.

It's a good idea to test the limits a little when in a more controlled environment. If you were out riding and your wheel up-expectantly came up, you might have a better chance to recover having already been in the same type of situation and know how to handle it...

The first Tri I did a test ride on. I had watched the videos and did the test ride thru the cones ok. The girlfriend and I hopped on the tri and took off. It was a bit un nerving when I had this happen on the first sharpish turn I made. The right rear wheel came up and the trike felt like it was tipping over. Left off the throttle a bit and it came right back down. I learned not to try and handle them like a bike. My girlfriend was not happy with the ride on 2 wheels either. I would not do that on purpose. This guy is out of control.
