That one leans with you like a motorcycle, but it's still mostly for retards. Just like the bombardier spyder (no leaning, just two front wheels). I worked at a larger multi line motorcycle dealer for a long time. I've seen obese elderly women and men ride M/C's and scooters. One even walked with a can but still rode, and dogged out trikes and such. There is NO reason for three wheels imo. The Suzuki Burgman and Honda Silverwing were very popular for highway running. The Burgman 650 would consistently pull very very low 12sec. et's. I never will take my 930 to the local drag strip, (I know thats not what there made for) even to just see what I can do in it. Because I fear lining up next to the guy on the scooter and getting beat.
