That's definitely homemade. Looks like someone used a bicycle frame and put a trike fork on it.

Haha. Wow. I was absolutely sure that was something cobbled together in somebody's garage.

It's probably a 656cc Briggs and Stratton. That's only about 12 horsepower or so.

Search YouTube for Heald Super Trike for a vid.

There are much nicer ones out there (not mine).
