My first thought was how ugly it is. Then that irrational part of me that automatically loves anything with three wheels took over, and I thought "Welllll....." If it were local I'd offer him $200 for it.

I love the rare ones! Can't find anything about this company so far. I would prefer a 10hp like the Carl Heald Super Tryke I had but still VERY interesting American made machine!

Wish he was closer! Has someone coming at 4:30 to look at it. Tire size is 22-12-8! Said he will call if the first guy doesn't take it. Hoping I can give him an offer and get him to meet me half way but have a feeling it will be gone.

I just saw one of those Heald Super Trikes for sale maybe 2 weeks ago from out in Albion. I think they only wanted like 250.00 for it . I don't recall if it had an engine or not though.

Tri-Rods used to be very very popular. My father still has mine from when I was a kid hidden in the barn somewhere. (Thank god for a pack rat) I will see if we can get the barn cleaned out this summer so I can get to it, get it cleaned up, and show it off. Mine was a Tri-Rod similar to the link I posted, not the thread topics one.

I am wondering if the Briggs is original. Most of the early American Mini-Bikes used Tecumseh motors like the Rupp's, Bonanza's, etc. I see in the photos the gas tank is mounted above the engine, most Tecumseh's were like that, gravity fed where the Briggs & Stratton had attached tanks under the carb. This one has both, under the carb and behind the Sissy Bar? Either way looks unique!

That is a sweet trike, I like it! I'd find a way to put a larger motor on it, but it looks like something outta Mad Max.
This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

Also a Chain Drive Jack Shaft, center sprocket looks like it would have good low end torque.
