trike at the traffic light

[Anonymous]

chatted with this cat at the loooooooong red light on the way to a b- day party for my kid.
didn't have time to stop and chat with him but he did let me snap a pic of his creation.
in the 3 to 4 mins we waited for the light he said he built this wicked trike.
said he went rounds with DOT and the state police to get it legal but after some fighting and time he won the fight.

hey tomb keep a look out because he lives in k-zoo

Looking at the way the front is constructed with the forks sideways, it seems to me that it would lean left when you turn right, and vise-versa.

That thing is awsome!!! You Michigan guys are crazy with motor cycles, Bosshosses are built there right? I tried to find a pic on a motor cycle I saw on tv that was homebuilt, had a Chevy 4 cyclinder motor, and was like 12 to 15 feet long, and had beer cans covering the forks. I looked up Michigan Madman thinking he built it but didn't see it. However there is some cool stuff there. See the ACE cycle car, might be the stoplight guys insperation.
