My only experience with more or less wheels are dually pickups. Those do fishtail terrible when unloaded. but load the truck properlly and things pan out pretty well.

The point is, reguardless of the number of tires, the lack or addition of contact patches can be made up for with the overall weight distribution. It's not a doomsday vehicle just because it doesn't have four tires. Just put the weight where it needs to be and it'll be fine.

How many other modern production trikes are flying off roads like tops when the driver barely taps the brakes?
