How would you turn those things since they dont lean lol. I guess you dont countersteer in those
Ever ride a trike? They are very different than a two-wheel bike. And somewhat dangerous to learn for those who are only used to two wheels. We have a tendency to put our feet down at stops which could be dangerous on a trike. They steer totally different and are more difficult at slower speeds, takes more strength. I cannot ride trikes because I have arthritis in my right elbow, and it becomes very painful when I try to steer a trike at slow speeds. I have no problem at all with two-wheel bikes, I then cannot even notice the arthritis.

never rode one but I know they are different. I know you have to go slower through turns because you cannot tilt the bike through the turn. Out of those 2 I would prefer the 1st for the tandem wheels. I wouldn't expect a trike with that much weight on it to be very stable.

Or a bike with a sidecar is the same

Yep, a two wheeler counter steers. Once you start the turn the bike leans into the turn and you arms really don't need to move much.
 
I wonder if anybody figured out the new word I coined: motorchyocmle

It's motorChYoCmLe

IOW, "motorCYCLe" or "motorhome".


Now, if I can only figure out how to pronounce my own word.
