The only existing 1913 Scripps--booth bi-autogo. I remember seeing this in the Detroit City Museum as a kid, it is now at the Owl's Head Transportation Museum in Owl's Head, Maine. Sources place it at 3200 or 3500 pounds. Powered by a 332 cu.in. V8.

Have you seen Jesse James' Monster Garage trike? The engine/trans/rear diff are all vintage Peterbilt...or the Road Dog? 24 FEET long, powered by a Nova 4 banger.

Both are ugly as sin, at least your submitted pic has class.

saw a "trike" this past weekend up in burleson. it had a v-6. painted orange. they'd put a black rag top on it like on a surrey. think flintstones and you've got the idea.

Obviously "self medication" ain't all it was crackd up to be in the good ol days.

What is that? training wheels or landing gear, maybe both.

Think it was on Yahoo news but saw a cycle powered by like 16 chainsaw motors, very long and all the engines had to be pull started separately.
Some people have just WAY to much time to kill.

Swedish site, but the guy has a Texas hat ... looks like it's worth a try - he's in the Guiness Book for the world's tallest motorcycle:

How about this one? Maybe not the biggest, but the number of cylinders: 48, the other side looks the same.
