Harley-Davidson and Can-Am manufacture trikes, and there are trike conversion kits available for most any other motorcycle, including Honda, Kawasaki, and Suzuki makes.

The cargo capability of the trike also lends itself to commercial delivery uses, especially in traffic clogged urban settings. Between the two front or back tires, depending on whether you have a delta or a tadpole, you’ll commonly find a large storage compartment, perfect for packing all the luggage or gear you need. Trikes usually share design elements such as windshields, fairings, and windscreens with cruisers. Trikes are ideal for those with balance or mobility issues. Obviously, three wheels create a more stable ride, and when you stop there’s no need to drop your feet to the ground to maintain balance. There are two types of trike configurations-one is the delta, which has one front wheel with two in the rear, the other is the tadpole, which has two wheels up front and one in the back. Three-wheel motorcycles, or trikes, are becoming increasingly popular as a form of commuter vehicle or weekend getaway transportation.
