Wow, i cant believe someone would ride this trike. It looks like a single rear drum brake on it. A underpowered honda 185 single motor behind a blocked off radiator shell. From the height of the man, and looking at the tractor seat, i think his hands would be above the top of his head when driving this thing. Good thing it won't go fast or very far at any given time. Looking at it more closely i notice it has no chain to the rear wheel. Throttle cable hanging across the top of the motor. 2x4 wood frame can get kinda flexible i would think. It even has decorative styling drilled into the frame. Kid's, don't try this at home, you need to be a professional to do this kinda stuff. srx660

Clearly unfinished. Looks like the goal is a steam punk art vehicle, not regular transportation.

I like what is going on here. The frame is either ash or oak and I’d wager there isn’t any flex in it. I can not identify the engine but probably less than a 200cc. There is a lot of engineering In this build. It is an example that you do not have to over build a project such as this. Nice steering and an elliptical spring rear suspension. I would say YES, KIDS DO try this at home. It won’t be fast, but would probably hit 55 pretty easily. Yes’ no chain yet, no front brakes yet, and no ignition or throttle, but what a nice start to a retro styled/engineered machine. I’d like to have more information on it....
