Looks like the front end of an Olds Toronado coupled to a Gold Wing.

I think this is the result of the Olds Toronado driver using a mobile phone and the Goldwing pulling up fast.

My grandmother had a Toronado back in the early to mid-70's, I thought I recognized that front end. Can't say I ever imagined it strapped to the frond end of what looks like a FJ1200 though?

I don't mean to be a wise guy--but I believe that's a Yamaha venture leading that toronado around.

I found one
It's the fact that I don't own it, so I don't have to drive it

This invention trike was built by Roger Lilly in Beckley, WV and is powered by a 307 Chevy engine. It is titled, registered and insured and has been ridden 4500 miles. Lilly is shopping for a Rocket III.

Roger is a master mechanic and I'd trust him to work on anything mechanical. He's hoping to buy a Rocket III in the spring.
