This is an interesting concept that looks to utilize an existing Honda platform. They will build it I hope.

So...combine this patent with Honda's development of a supercharged version of the NC700 motor and you could have a 3-wheeler that I might consider riding...someday.

I rode one CB4ME and wish it leaned very badly. First turn I went into it felt like I was being thrown over the bars to the outside.

I don't have any hard info, but just from other forums, there is a lot of talk of a high number of Spyder crashes in turns. Maybe people with no motorcycle experience at all thinking they'll be OK, it's gotta be like driving a car?

There was just a warning issued for the owners of one of the three wheelers to park them due to safety issues, just last week.

I've heard that if you transition from a motorcycle to Spyder it can a problem. Car to Spyder, less of an issue.

That was for the Polaris Slingshot. Not many of them out there. They only went on sale like two weeks before the notice. Saw a few at the bike show. That front end is huge.
