| Just wanted to say hello!! I just recently traded my 2005 Honda Shadow Aero for a 2007 Swing Trike and I love it! I have been searching the sight for answers to a few of my questions and have been pretty successful in doing so. Never being on a bike even as a co-rider I decided it was time. Took a 3 day riding class and have not looked back! I've ridden 2 wheels until Valentine's Day of this year when I traded for my Swing....Being almost 5'1" I am certainly glad I did!!! |

| I have a 2007 Silver Wing with a Voyager trike kit. I am very much still amazed at the performance this bike has! Just got it in February and I can't tell you how many people have stopped me to check it out! It sure is an attention getter! It sure got the attention a couple weeks ago when a Harley rider came up beside me on the Interstate and he gave me a look "like you gotta be kidding" then he showered down hard on the throttle...and I thought "guess we will see what he things now" and I showered down on the throttle......passed him up in less than a quarter mile and just kept on going. Since I was just running to the next town I took the exit...he came up beside me and asked me what in the world is that and I said "it's a scooter"! Then when I raised up my full-face helmet he said...oh my gosh..your a girl! LOL Like all bikers he was a real nice guy and said well that is one fast trike, I've never seen anything like it but, I have to admit I really like it! We said our goodbye's and with a wave went on our separate ways! |

| swing-trike-gal, You are so Baaad. Just our kind of member. Are you aware of the STO rally in Eureka Springs in the fall. You can check it out in the rally section of the forum. We have had several members attend. It is open to all, even Harley taunters. |

| Yes actually I am aware of the STO rally in Eureka, Springs..actually there are several members of Chapter I which I belong to that go every year....GWRRA is the Gold Wing Road Riders Association and I have been a member for 3 years now....and they all just love the STO Rally! Really it doesn't matter to me what anyone rides as long as they ride and I can even say I've never met a bad/mean biker whether it be a Harley rider or any other brand!!! I ride a lot and some of my best friends ride Harley's....I just make sure I always ride in front of them!!! |
