Monster Trike

[RacerX]

Something that started out in the mind and back yard of a guy known as the Michigan mad man, EJ Potter. He sold it to another guy by the name of George Barris who took the rough bike and made this. If i find the original picture of it i will add it to the set later. I have always wanted to build one like it if i can find a nice Allison i will. Enjoy the monster Trike and meet EJ Potter. Found the original pictures , On a trailer at a show and EJ in his signature white skull cap.

Man people were a lot more ballzy back in the day, and with cool leather jackets. I mean they didn't live long but they were tough and cool and that's all that really matters.

Yea they were and the tracks let them run their wild rides. Unlike today no more show cars accept the jet trucks and maybe a wheelstander if your lucky. You can find some videos of him, his last run he went in the mid 10s at 145mph tire smokin the whole way. The bike didnt have a clutch he put it gear started it revved it and dropped off a stand that pivoted under the rear wheel like a little scooter has. The bike is called the widow maker, At one time it was the fastest motorcycle in the world.
