I don't think you meant your first sentence to sound the way it does. And your post in its entirety actually makes my point. Cornering at
any speed above a walking pace is more interesting on an upright trike design. You need more balance sense to know where the limits are. I get that its more stable than a bicycle but that wasn't my comparison point. Upright trikes are far less stable than a recumbent trike would be.
