Sitting there on a dirt mound in the middle of nowhere wearing a for sale sign was what I eventually found out to be a 1937 Morgan Super Sports three-wheeler with two of the wheels in front of all things. There was a big ass Matchless V-twin engine mounted sideways between those wheels and I just kept circling and circling this thing until I got the guts to hop in and sit...

  Trilogy is powered by a 1971 Triumph Trident engine.  The 750cc stock motor has a big bore kit, resulting in 836cc.  The heads were ported and polished and a racing cam was added.  Ron extended the fins on the heads and rocker box covers for added dimension. The three gas tanks, of graduated sizes, were formed from sheet metal in cone shapes.  Finch used a Chinese cooking wok for...

  The smart choice of whitewall slicks is only one aspect of a smart build by Tim Sneed, one of the three owners of Mobtown Cycle in Baltimore, Maryland, and if anything looks like fun on three wheels, this trike is it. Impossibly low and simple in design, but intricately detailed the more you look, Tim’s ’78 FXE-based trike has got it all going at once. Not a big surprise, though,...

  Like most projects, things start out one way and can totally take a different turn especially when there’s some interest from an outside source and, oh say like a big company like Rockford Fosgate gets involved. Yeah it’s no surprise that what originally started out as a smart project to take a new Harley trike and make some trick trike parts to add to the already extensive...

  Even with approximately 3,700 miles between Stockholm and where I’m writing from on Cape Cod, nothing was lost in translation as far as building a bad ass Harley-powered custom trike. If somebody told me this trike was straight out of Hoot Owl (pop. 4), Lotsee (pop.2), or Shady Grove (pop.2), Oklahoma, I wouldn’t doubt it for a minute. That trike and its owners along with a hell...

That “something cool” was the mating of front half of Lauri and Forrest’s 2001 Heritage Softail with what appears to be fiberglass rear fenders from Dave’s over-the-top ’41 Willys Ridler contender and a Frankenstein Trikes’ rear end. Hot rods and Harleys, it doesn’t get much better than that. “Dave gave us a rough sketch of the body style he was going to make and we let him go from...

Obviously, Leona is no shrinking violet and her wild Big Cat theme makes absolutely sure she’s no wallflower wherever she parks her trike. From what I assume are leopard skin graphics (hey, I’m no felinologist) to her flair-to-dare when it comes to riding outfits, Leona is quite a cool cat herself. Subtle is not in her vocabulary when it comes to bikes and the cat theme running...

We previously featured David’s two-wheeled V8 Choppers bike (check archives for January 6, 2012) and that was one hairy ride, but in retrospect, that bike only made 520hp (In case you’re wondering, I’m not very tough at all and that “only made 520hp” was said totally tongue-in-cheek as 520hp is something to be feared, but enjoyed at the same time.). Now, a month later, I got a call...

Our photojournalist Jack Cofano certainly has an eye for cool bikes. This ’59 Harley-Davidson trike with a 45” Flathead engine belongs to Rob Swayze of Red Bank, New Jersey. Rob says the modified Servi-Car cruises at 65mph.
