the owner of a local bar/restaurant had this trike built a little while ago. I haven't found out the builder, but I do know it's an Ultima motor, and I can't remember the displacement but it was the biggest motor I've ever heard of. The primary is an open belt setup, and the belt itself is 6" wide. Not sure on the tranny. It's obviously a springer front end, and the rear is a hardtail. I overhead the owner one day talking to someone and he said if he doesn't feather the clutch leaving a stoplight, he'll burn the tires off the back of it. I heard him take off on it from the cabin a few weeks ago, and it's just absolutely insane how this trike sounds. these pics were taken by me earlier this weekend.







And here the trike is last night:

Nice would like to see it in person. It's gotta bounce a bit.

 

Pictures look like it used to be a nice trike, I'm assuming the video is the same trike going up in flames.

 

Man that things gotta FAT A$$!!! LOL. That was a nice piece of machinery.

 

WAS. man, that's hard to watch those flames.
