Flyinfool Posted June 8, 2010 #1 Posted June 8, 2010 Since I now have Collector plates on my bike I decided to stop at a local car show last night since I was riding by. Lots of neat toys to look at. And won a free dinner in the raffle. Missed the $50 gas card by 1. There was a custom trike there that was made from the back half of a Pontiac Fiero GT and a motorcycle front end to make a trike out of it. Lots of custom fiberglass to bring it all together and then it was painted a burnt metallic orange. Sorry but I did not have my camera with me. At one point I noticed a group of people standing by my bike arguing, so I wandered over to see what was going on. Turns out they were arguing about what year Gold Wing I used as a base to build this custom bike that I had. They could not / would not believe that was a stock Yamaha, even with all of the Yamaha logos.

SilvrT Posted June 8, 2010 #3 Posted June 8, 2010 The most distinctive thing about a GW is the opposing cylinders. How could they have mistaken a V4 engine for that???
bongobobny Posted June 8, 2010 #4 Posted June 8, 2010 There nis a burnt orange Cobalt turned trike in this area. Very cool ride indeed!!
Flyinfool Posted June 8, 2010 Author #5 Posted June 8, 2010 I will try to get back there next Monday with camera in tow to see if it is back. This Restaurant hosts this car show every Monday during the summer.
