I really am interested in buying this. It has something to do with the extras included.:thumb:
My wife will not go for it.:mad:

Does the price include the trike as well?
Can you blame her? Argyle socks would provide very little abrasion resistance in a spill. On the plus side, it has airbags.

...seriously tho, I never understood these trikes, they're like motorcycles for people with middle ear infections. I mean, why would you deliberately get a motorbike that's heavier, has greater drag due to increased frontal area, wears out 50% more rubber, yet has absolutely no safety or other benefits over a regular 2-wheeled motorbike? ...apart from not falling over when you're blind drunk and decide to ride your motorbike, in which case your days are numbered (likely in single digits) anyhow, what's the point?
If you're looking for a 3 wheeler with 'accessories', check into one of these. Much more fun to ride. http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm250/willmw/imagesCAGA4M74.jpg
Oh, and for cyclaholic...unlike the can-am, this bike WILL fall over when you're blind drunk, etc. It rides just like a 2 wheeler with the exception being that you have more rubber in front in case of slippery surfaces or emergency braking.

A model that nice is a big red flag. What are they trying to get you to overlook by distracting you with her?

There is a Can-Am dealership in this area, and I see a fair number of older riders on them. I can see that if the choice was between a trike and not riding at all, the trike may look like a good option, especially if you have mobility or balance issues.

The argyle and lime green color scheme is all wrong.

You should open a Victoria's Secret next door!
The Can-Am Spyder.
What are you talking about? Can-Am Spyder? All I saw was Little Miss Muffet and her very nice tuffet.
Maybe one hundred and curdy pounds?

My wife, who buys much more lingerie than I do, looked at the pictures and authoritatively said it was a bra and thong set. Not a bikini.

My wife would have just slapped me across the face.

I thought the Lexus on the street looked pretty nice.
Yeah, not only that, but in one picture there are three guys replacing the roof on the house down the street, then in the next picture there are two. Maybe one of the roofers came over to make an offer.

I wonder how many people, like me, had to go back to the pictures to see the Lexus and the roofers.

No I did not, but thanks for pointing it out. Now back to the hooters.
