Saw it in a parking lot. Not sure if the 2 extra wheels are modifications.

It's a Honda Goldwing, I believe the trike modification is aftermarket.

Some sort of Honda cruiser. In other words, something that I would never ever ride.

That’s what I thought, you can’t see it in the pic but there is a 4th wheel in the usual bike place.

Standard Honda Goldwing with an aftermarket set of training wheels. Seen a few of them rolling around. Pretty much a conversion to make it a trike without completely modifying it and removing the original rear wheel.

Extra two wheels? Did it used to be a unicycle?

You don’t have to remove the rear wheel off a Gold Wing when converting to a trike...
But it does make fitting the differential easier.

No, there is a 4th wheel where one would normally be on a bike, its just not visible in the pic (my bad)

It’s a GL1800 Goldwing with a bolt on “trike” kit. The original rear wheel is still there, though, and it’s the only driven wheel. The “trike” wheels are just outriggers - basically serving the same function as training wheels on a bicycle.

Do you think the extra wheels are powered? Or do you think they were basically really fancy training wheels?

Can confirm. Original rear wheel is the only one that is powered. 2 outside wheels are just like training wheels. This is most likely just a much cheaper solution that fitting an axle in place of the back wheel and all the body work that would have to cover it all.
