They just want to cover thairAso if some one got hurt and godfobid they wer on a trike they can sit on thair high horse and say SEE WE TOLD YOU SO. I feel more stable on my trike than any other atv. The bike wether it has 2 3 4 or even 6 wheels is only as unsafe as the rider. ( people kill people hand guns dont kill people )

To me, a dirt bike is more unstable than any ATV, but even though they can fall over without even being cranked, they(bikes) don't seem to receive much scrutiny for being unstable. I mean, when's the last time anyone had an ATV wash out from beneath them when they hit unexpected sand or mud.....while traveling in a straight line?
Reckon most of the haters are either just ignorant/fearful/etc..., or that they don't posses the skills or ability to learn what it takes to ride a more responsive machine? Getting them to answer that question would probably require more thought than they've ever put into the matter. They've probably gotten too lazy to throw their weight around on a machine anyway.
To the haters I say:
Just keep you![]()

on the seat and put it in drive, if that's all you can do. REAL RIDERS have options, and we're going to keep it that way.

I caught mine playing yard darts.
Once mine ran with scissors to the gas station, then drank out of an unapproved container! Luckily it fouled a plug and I was able to chain it down before it ran over my neighbor's dog.....
..again.
It did break into the house, left the faucet running, and scared my son's hamster into a heart attack.
Edited to add:
I had plumb forgot about leaving the boy's 70 in the house last summer when we went on vacation. It drank all my beer and ordered pay-per-view movies!
Dang things are evil, I tell you.

The things people waste their time on. In the grand scheme of things how much good does it do to down on 3 wheelers? They gave birth to a lot of modern atv racing not to mention all the money the states get for registering Off Highway Vehicles. All the money for the state parks. If 3 wheelers hadn't opened the door for all the off road riding there might not be any of this. The law makers should be greatfull, look at all the money the (dangerous) 3 wheeler is responsible for. They just don't think.
They are not dangerous, just like guns its not the equipment its the operator. We should out law idiots then nothing would be dangerous.
