Description

NO RESERVE!!! This reverse trike motorcycle/car coop was hand built from all aircraft parts by a meticulous craftsman. All welds and rivets are placed very carefully and precise. 1960's magnesium Mini Light wheels hooked up to a 1960's Fiat front brake system. with aluminum finned drums (dont know if these are Fiat or Porsche. or some other European make). Aluminum uni-body design that bolts to the motor frame in the rear. Was originally built for Bonneville salt flats and then made street legal in the early 1970's. It has a vin. # from a Suzuki GT750. 1971 and when I got it the GT750 motor was in it but locked up so tight the top end would not come apart. The previous owner ran it on the street as a commuter to and from college in Reno NV. and forgot to put oil in it back in 1972. I got it complete and have all parts except original motor. I took the bike apart and bagged every part. as to do a paint polish/restore and bring it back to Bonneville. Everything is accounted for. Cool 1960's Shiths gauges in the cockpit. Original key still in the ignition. All wiring is still intact and solid. All electronic parts are still there bolted to the rear firewall. GT750 carburetors and still attached to the cables. Gas tank is clean. electric gas pump still works. built in to the body behind the seat. Foot controls are custom with hydraulic brake and clutch. All tubing with hand bends are connected with aircraft fittings. This is a one of a kind. hand built. reverse trike race motorcycle made for the Bonneville flats in Nevada. It comes in two pieces that are lightweight and ready for easy transportation. The aluminum uni-body cockpit is 7 1/2' long. 6' long with front trunk open. The engine cage with rear wheel is 4 1/2' long. It is about 4' wide from spindle to spindle. I bought it in Reno NV and drove it down to Los Angeles with a pick up truck. This is a custom bike that was used briefly on the road in Reno NV back in 1972. The title was lost decades ago. if there ever was one? and there is no account of it in the Nevada DMV. I will provide a bill of sale. If you are a cafe racer builder or a vintage race fan who can build bikes. this trike will need a little of your skill to be the coolest race bike out there All that is needed is to put it back together with a fresh Suzuki gt750 motor. Engine cage will accommodate other motors with minor fabrication. Any questions. message me and I will answer asap. NO RESERVE!!!
