That ain't all it could use. :yikes:

I bet it turned heads way back when
In 100 years time i wonder what people will make of the spyder:bowdown:

[SpydermanCT]

Any idea on the specifics of the bike ?

Nope, but it's old. :D

I've always been an innovator. Hard to believe I was ever that young.

[SpyderWolf]

That's a cool picture. Thanks for sharing it.

[wyliec]

I can't tell; does it have an IPS?

It actually looks like it has handlebars and a steering wheel.

Thanks Lamont, I wonder if anyone knows any history about it.:chat: he kind of looks like a young SCOTTY, might be in his collection. :dontknow:

[Gordy]

looks like a farleyspy:yes::yes:

[Lone Spyder Ryder]

Love that picture. bet it had a 100 ft. of baling wire on it.

Judging by the low backrest and no rear speakers, I'm guessing RS rather than RT? Plus it's not in the RT Touring section.
:roflblack:

Cool stuff Lamont:thumbup:

Actually, I was thinking of RT because of its bulkiness.

They said, Harley never thinks ahead. That looks like a HD flathead engine. Dale Walker at Wheels Through Time might know. The front wheels have wooden spokes from the way they look ( personal knowledge).
I wonder what the "People" at Consumer Product Safety Commision would make of it?

Looks home grown to me. You can see the original bike frame, attached to an extended wooden frame. Front end looks to be rigidly attached. Model T steering wheel...and likely the steering box and front axle/wheels, too. Strap iron, extended swingarm look like it is rigidly attached, too...I can see no springing. Rough ride! Could have at least used a pillow for a seat rather than his sweater.

Look's like the picture was taken during the Depression, Probably couldn't afford a pillow back then.
I kind of lived though the Depression. [By proxy]
My old man would remind me about it any time i spent money.:roflblack:

I saw this at a HOG rally (actually held at a hog farm in So. Illinois). It is not a Spyder, but it sure turned heads. It acutally ran...you should have seen the man and woman riding on it...no one looked at the trike...ha ha

I know that drill! Still have it drummed into my brain from my youth, where it was implanted by my father and grandmother. My mother called it the "Depression mentality."
