    I have people tell me this all the time and I am 16! I have 2 friends that love to ride trikes to, One of them I convinced his step dad to buy two of them, while the other friends father told his son to stay off the 3 wheeler becuase he was either going to kill him self or brake his ankle. The friend in question is 13 and his dad bought him and his brother(who also is 13) 2 spanking banshees and 2 dirt bikes and who also bought each 2 shotguns....

    Tell them,,,,"yeah I saw a trike pick up a gun and shoot 4 people last week!"
    Bottom line is,people think atv's are dangerous.But the wierd thing is, more people get hurt working on their house or something.
    My brother dis-located his shoulder this week.Mom said"was it on that 4 wheeler?"He said no,"I did it in a softball game"That shut her up.
    Here is where my long useless list of stuff nobody cares about should go...

    Buck did that eh Rob?

    You always get flack, or at least I do. I hit the local indoor and I tell ya, you get alota comments pre riding. Then you gotta go out there and hit it and show em they are just as fast and are the same danger level as anything.
    I just started clearing them 55 triples and that shut em up!

    After that I got praise! lol

    I think my R's may have intercepted it, becouse when I came out side this morning the x was on its side with all the oil and gas drained out! (i think they shanked it)

    Ride hard crash hard, It happens. I have bled more from my bikes and quads the any trike I have ever had. If you can ride it I will crtash it, But that is me. Not what Im riding. I have even hit the house with the mower.

    What about bikes they only have 2 wheels and can zip right out from under you. I dont ride any mean trikes but I think the Big Reds I ride are more dangerous the one with suspension. I bounced of the trail last week and didnt think it was the trike. I got back on and rode. Just like guns, quads, cars, mowers and golfcarts, trikes are only as dangerous as the people that own them.

    How many ols farts get hurt mowing the lawn from mowers rolling over? I bet its more then trikes each year, In any year.

    I get a kick out of everyone telling me my trike is dangerous, that's half the fun of having it. I can't remember who said this,
