Have been following the launch of this

Can-am Spyder

for the last 6 Months and the UK launch/demo day is tomorrow.

Having had a number of bikes over the years, I am interested to see how this machine will handle.

Having never been into "typical" three wheeled vehicles, this looks somewhat radical, however not sure until tomorrow if it will fill the boxes of my previous rides?

Anybody else going to the launch??? or has ridden anything similar, seem to remember seeing something along those lines.

Sorry, but my personal opinion is, it looks dreadful!

I think it looks pretty smart!
It's not a bike though!

Not sure I like the look. – Sorry.

Like all three wheelers it appears to have most of the disadvantages of a bike along with most of the disadvantages of a car. I think I’d rather have the old Morgan 3 wheeler type layout where at least chatting to your passenger while stuck in the traffic is a little easier.
