My initial reaction was always "That's not a motorcycle" but lately I've been looking for a way for my wife to join me on rides. She has her MC endorsement but has never felt comfortable with anything on two wheels. I test-drove a Harley three-wheeler but don't think that's the solution for her; cornering was vastly different from a two-wheeler...I rode one of the older models once. I hated it. Turning was a chore. It felt like it was trying to buck my off like a bronco. Since you can't lean it the g forces suck.
I've never driven a Spyder -- at least not yet -- but would like to hear any opinions -- good or bad. If I went this way for her, I'd be thinking used, in the $10-12K range, with automatic (paddle shift?) transmission.
Thanks.

That's how I felt riding a Harley three-wheeler. Was kinda hoping the Spyder was different. Sounds similar...
