Why Buy a Trike?

Welcome to Heartland Honda®! At our dealership in Springdale, Arkansas, we’re proud to offer a wide range of powersport vehicles that we’re sure are going to satisfy all your off-road and on-road needs. But of all these options, your particular needs probably require a specific type of powersport vehicle. No need to invest in all of them if you just need one or two.

As you look through our inventory, you’ll find a wide range of trike models that we have for sale. You’re probably less likely to see these vehicles on the road, but they provide excellent benefits to a wide range of riders. Read on to find out if you’ll benefit from a trike and then visit us near Fayetteville to see your options up close and in person, including the iconic Honda Goldwing trike near you.

Comfort

One of the biggest advantages of getting a trike is the comfort. This can come in a number of forms. Firstly, you won’t be using the same amount of physical strength to control and navigate a trike as you would with a two-wheeled motorcycle. This can lengthen the amount of time you can spend on your trike before you’re completely worn out, even if you spend hours with strong winds hitting your body.

The wider frame can mean more seating, which is simply going to make for a more comfortable riding experience. As we’ll get into in a moment, trikes also offer a stabler, more natural riding position. This can be particularly helpful for riders whose joints aren’t what they used to be, like in their knees and hips, as well as those who have back pain. That way, whether you’re riding up to Rogers, or traveling all the way down to Fort Smith and beyond, you’ll be able to go longer before making a stop.

Stability and Safety

And speaking of stability, this is another great reason to get a trike. Of all the motorized bikes on the road, trikes are incredibly difficult to tip over. Their three-wheeled design makes it almost impossible to do so, even if you tried. Plus, they’re heavier and more grounded, which further helps keep you upright.

When you’re more likely to remain upright, there’s a certain amount of improved safety to make you feel better behind the handlebars. On top of that, they’re bigger, making them easier to see, and they’re not excessively wide, but wide enough to discourage weaving through traffic. Maybe you lose cool points, but this kind of riding involves a considerable amount of unnecessary danger. Avoid the temptation with a trike. Keep in mind, there are some safety issues related specifically to trikes, but depending on your riding style, trikes can sometimes make you much safer.

Storage

Trikes are fantastic for long-term riding, so over time, they’ve become better equipped for longer trips. If this is your kind of riding, then you’re going to love the extra storage that comes with trikes. Because of the bigger rear end, you might be looking at more than just saddlebags, but a proper trunk. This gives you enough space to bring all your gear for a longer trip, as well as make errands around town easier.

Goldwing Trike Power

Here at Heartland Honda, we’re particularly excited about the Honda Goldwing (maybe we’re a little biased). But of all the trikes on the market, the Goldwing consistently offers incredible performance and power, making it one of the more obvious choices for you. On top of the engine power, you’re also going to get smoother performance, between the suspension and the fact that you might be riding with a car tire. Just take a look on some online forums, there’s nothing that beats the Goldwing.
