Description

Trike buyer's remorse is real, but the viral number behind it isn't. This breakdown covers what actually drives regret when retirees and returning riders buy a Harley Tri Glide, Freewheeler, or Can-Am Spyder and Ryker: the no-lean handling learning curve, real 2025-2026 pricing and financing terms, five-year depreciation differences across the lineup, and the maintenance costs dealers rarely mention up front.
