Hello Big Kitty Prototype
« on: October 29, 2013, 10:51:32 AM »

For those that subscribe to the notion of Go Big or Go Home, no explanation is required, for everyone else, there is no possible explanation.

As you might imagine, virtually everything on this machine was fabricated or modified. The engine is a Cat 3208 with mirror image turbos, the transmission is an Allison LCT 1000, the Kenworth hood was narrowed 12”, and the cup holder is an off the shelf item from the Hello Big Kitty Trike Shop.  :P

The enthusiast who built the big trike has ridden it just over 6,400 miles between the end of July and Oct-1. He is the same person that built the well received fatty pictured here two years ago.

Jesse....thank you for that.  I thought I had seen it before but couldn't remember...now I do....

dj, definetly not something you see every day.  Bet with the pipes, wind and the air horns just above his head would make for an interesting experience going down the road.  So, is this a trike, three wheeled car/tractor or what?  Looks like it's tagged as a trike (small plate) so...?

It’s licensed as a trike, but not all States allow a tag like this for a machine this heavy.

This guy has ridden it quite a bit, so the experience must be somewhat tolerable.

That's very cool DJ.  Thanks for the pics.  Any chance you've got another that shows the rider cockpit area better?
