*sigh*
Yo Clint, we have a proud owner of one right here in St. Cloudy. Saw it yesterday on Veterans Dr. Shocked the H-E-double tooth picks out of me.

I can't see the thing being more economical fuel wise, than a good Japanese econobox {Toyota Yaris, Honda Fit, etc}.Why not? It's still quite a bit lighter. It just seems to be an answer to a question, that damn few people have asked. If I had lots of money, sure, I'd have one just for the novelty.
Yeah...

You would think it would be fitted out like a Goldwing.

My local dealer just got them in, will be doing the test rides weekend of June 20th.

If I had the money, no question I'd buy it. I laugh when I look at because it just looks like it would be so much fun to ride. My stepfather and mother had been considering getting a custom trike, but they are really interested in the Spyder now.
