10 Trikes That Are Worth Every Mile
Touring motorcycles are the best when it comes to enjoying those long highway runs. But trikes do one better by adding an extra wheel and more seating and storage space. While trikes are notably heavier than full dressers, the three-wheeled setup helps riders forget about “balancing” the vehicle. Riding comfort, luxury, and convenience are further elevated. We have bundled ten desirable trikes that are worth every mile on the road. Among legacy manufacturers, Harley-Davidson is the only one making trikes. The others on this list include cool specimens from Can-Am and Polaris.
This list is organized in descending order of pricing, from the most expensive to the most affordable trikes that are worth every mile.

The CVO treatment makes this Harley a luxurious affair, including a dual-tone paint job, bespoke collection accessories, and plush seating layouts with heated seats and controls.

It is powered by a sizable 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 204 horsepower and 149.8 pound-feet of torque.

This helps it do 0–60 mph in 4.9 seconds, and the top speed is limited to 125 mph. Power is sent to the rear wheel via a five-speed manual gearbox with a reverse gear.

Its two-wheeled rear layout is complemented by a new de Dion-style rear suspension that replaces the older live-axle setup for a more stable and dynamic riding experience.
