Took the 911 through Oregon this last weekend, drove about a thousand miles, and I would have to say I saw, like, 5 of those 3 wheel Can-ams. They don't look especially comfortable, ie, the rider looks like s/he's 'perched' on a low box, and unless the windshield is more aero than it looks, it seems like the rider is getting a full bug blast.
I also saw a lot more three wheel trikes (like GL conversions) than I ever had on this same run; I ALSO saw a lot of baggers with the small fairings. In fact, the baggers run in packs now like choppers used to, and most of the riders like 'em in black. I think the people that ride to live and live to ride are getting a little older and they like a few more comforts. Come to think of it, I rarely if ever see any stretched-out choppers on the open highway.
