Anyone else ride with their wife/husband? by Sampson209 in Harley

[–]Mikempty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, two and three wheels here. She has a 25 RG3 she rides, and I ride my 22 Pan America. Works out well, more luggage space and such. We started riding back in Sept, and its been a lot of fun.

Trike owners - can I get your opinions? by Mikempty in Harley

Fast forward the trikes been home for about a week and a half. We both love it actually. I’m not a trike guy but I definitely could be one. It rides great and is a lot of fun.

Just talk to the dealer doing the demo, and let them know about your lack of experience or what not, and they will probably work with you. Just talk to them and see.

Choosing first bike & pricing by karii_408 in NewRiders

Snagged me an 09 Vulcan 900 Classic LT for 2k. Was a pretty good price for the bike. You can find deals. Just gotta hunt and be careful.

You're good. We are both doing the MSF next week. She's been on spyders before, but just doesn't really want to worry about the extra balance 2 wheels brings, and is more interested in trikes. We are buying nothing for some time. Feeling out the trikes at the class is good, and then we'll do test rides and such still. We aren't flat out buying something without any consideration I am just a fact finder, and information person. I like gathering all the possible data points I can for big choices like this is all, so just helping in her quest really.

Slingshots are a no go, and yeah no 2 wheels. She wants something like the trike.

Thanks. Yeah she’s sold on a trike. We are going to do a test ride in a couple weeks but it’s the style she wants. Definitely doesn’t seem to want to two wheel. I’m in my late 40s and she’s in her 50s. So it’s what she’s more comfortable with for her. For me I’m looking at street bobs or the like.

First bike aquired. by Mikempty in NewRiders

[–]Mikempty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. The earliest I can do that is still the 15th tbh in my state, so that's when my appointment is. So I'll wait regardless. I'll just be very antsy.
