    most of the people I meet have alot of respect for trikes, some dumb comments, but most are like "aren't those things banned", "you're gonna kill yourself on that"

    Most people are cool, but some are real bad. There was a group of atv'ers at a local riding spot, and they cussed me out, saying that 3 wheelers are crap, and that they kill you, and such. I was pissed. I was funny when I took off though, and I was jumping a few jumps. They just sat there whatching. Don't let it get to you. They will stop soon enough, and learn that them themselves are the dumbones.

    people always tell me "why do you want a 3 wheeler? they suck" "fourwheelers are better" things like that. it kinda gets on my nerves but the guys i ride with think its awesome.

    Ive never been treated with less respect, and usually gain more respect, every where Ive ever taken mine. I can race, and take last place and I still get more applause than the guy who takes first on the quad. Ive spent my share of time making fun of trikers who talk a bunch of crap about how bad trikes are, but wont ride them beyond the parking lot. SHOW them what you can do, instead of telling them, and they will shutup, and may even compliment you. Works for me!

    When we goto Little Sahara with our trikes we get nothing but respect from quad guys. Then when you start jumping they are really amazed. I ride with a bunch of raptors and banshees all the time, they fear the R in trails until I get tired.
    I had the RIGHT to remain silent, I didn't have the ability!

    I've always heard static about riding three wheelers instead of four. You just get used to it after awhile. Generally after you ride with a bunch of quads they change thier minds. There are alot of benifits to riding on three wheels. Here's a couple examples:

    Which would you rather roll on top of you if you had too? 300 lb. trike or 500 lb. quad?
    Which would you rather load into the back of your 4x4 by yourself?

    How many quads out there will actually float across a stream?

    Who's going to get tired first trail riding? The guy pushing the extra drag of two front wheels and the extra 200lb. of the quad? Or the guy on the trike?

    I won't even go into the maintainence part of it...

    I ve a lot of that stuff too. But all you have to do is show them that 3 are better then 4. People thought I was talking nonsense when I was telling them about my R. But all that changed after riding a couple times.
    Your trike can out turn, and usally out run an equally compared CC sized quad. And you can do that nifty 2 wheel lean all day long around the yard while they watch and admire.

    im sick of the 4 wheelers dissin my trike. ive got a yamaha tri-moto 200E and i pull the ** home when they break. alot of people tell me my trike sucks and its unstable. ive got 25X13 tires on the rear and to me, its more stable than a quad because your always conscience of your rolling and keeping it controlled. i have only rolled bein a trailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro, and once i flipped it over on myself, but it was fun and interesting to me. i have a yamaha tri-moto 200E and a 2003 honda fourtrax and the only time i ride the fourtrax is when the snow gets too deep. other than that, its the yammi all the way. i also like it when i tip up on 2 and show the quads up. non of them can do it, they try and they try, but only hurt themselves....so i say ** the golf carts, they should be outlawed for the lack of fun and pride. spit liquor in the faces of the preps, the politicians, the rich and the dumb. i payed 500 for my trike and have more fun than those who pay 10 grand. thats my 2 cents, talk to ya'll later. peace out, tony

    Yamaha200E it's rare to see someone posting from Southern Illinois. I grew up there in a small town down the road from you. You ever been to DuQuoin? My folks still live there and I go and visit every couple of years. The last time I rode my 350X there was back in 1986. I mainly ride the dunes here in SoCal now. Good luck on that 'respect' thing you got going on. Most quad riders are clueless when it comes to trikes and how to ride them.

    there was this one kid down where i ride at one day and he said that his fourwheele is better than my 350x. "that thign is a piece of crap" and i said "well we'll see when you go down in. we all went in. first place we went was some playhills. i clumb a few small ones and he sat down atr the bottom talkin to the other 2 guys. i told him to go up this one hill that wasnt very steep but it was rutted pretty bad and he said "you go up it" and i said "ok". i went up it and come back down and said "i went up it, your turn" and he chickened out. when were leaving that place, i went down the crick and up this steep rutted out little hill. its not very big but it is steep. i went up aand yelled for him to go up. he came overf looked at it and chickened out. i come down and said "why did you chicken out?" he said "i cant make it." ok...we went up another little muddy hill after that. i went right up and he went part way up and rolled back down about 6 or 7 times. then he went up. after that i said "not bad for a piece of crap[/u][/i] threewheeler huh?" he had no reply.
