Motor Trike Condor | First Ride Review

Last June at the Americade rally in Lake George, New York, company owner Jeff Vey let me take a quick spin on a prototype of the new Condor trike, with strict instructions to bring it back in one piece since the rear bodywork would be used as a plug for the production molds.
Motor Trike?s fenders match the Gold Wing?s sleek lines.
