Looks like the front end of an old 3-wheler, which were outlawed in the US. I know there were kits to convert them into a quad, but not a motorcycle, or was there?

With those bikes, I don't think grooming is necessary.

Neighbors growing up had a pair of them. Fun things.

I don't know what it is but it kind of reminds me of a larger version of the first vehicle that I ever learned to drive. A Honda Trail 50.

Wow, that's it! I thought I knew my Honda quads, three wheelers and bikes pretty well. Learn something new every day. Thanks.

I'm going to get one of these next year. I'm thinking of a Surly Ice Cream Truck.

As popular as fat bike mountain bikes are becoming, you'd think Honda or Yamaha would make something like this again.
