Tricycles for adults target safety-conscious

COVINA, Calif. — A motorcycle that grew an extra wheel. Or a car that somehow lost one. It's possible to make the case for either when it comes to the Can-Am Spyder, a head-turning, motorized means of transportation that will start showing up on American highways this month, according to USA Today.

The Spyder is licensed as a three-wheel motorcycle, has cycle-style handlebars, engine and seat. It shifts like one, too.

But how many motorcycles have power steering, stability and traction control, anti-lock brakes — even a reverse gear?
