"This was initially built as ” The Nine Wheel Harley Rig “. It was built in the late 80′s by Kenneth Kilpatrick of Huntsville Alabama. I see from this photo It has since been modified to incorporate a second front wheel making it now ” The Ten Wheel Harley Rig “. The tractor is a modified Harley Davidson FLT. The interior of the trailer is nicely finished. Kenneth did received license from HD to utilize their paint scheme and logo. I am told, at Harley Davidson’s expense, Kenneth has been able to show his Rig in several countries around the world. Previous comments show some find Kenneth’s creation a waste of time and money. I for one think not."
Im sitting here with kenny kilpatrick now and his 9 wheel harley rig is still the same. The front end was never changed, someone else must have made the ten wheel design.
Damn! +Raquel Sage +Rick B. thoughts?
Damn?!? +Warren Searle, with something set up like that, I would love to see what they are hauling?!?
+Warren Searle Ohh Myy!! My mind is RACING trying to figure the build on this! Crazy! But awesome at the same time!
kool
What, I thought every Harley got to Sturgis on the back of these?
Amazing what people can create. (I also suspect the original sketches were drawn on a bar napkin).
+Stuart Ponder pretty sure that is where the best ideas usually come from..
+Brent Burzycki Agreed!
+Rick B, isn't this just mind blowing? I have never seen anything like this even attempted. From an engineering point of view it's quite the feat…
Wow…soooo innovative and unique! Incredible creativity!
Here is more info on this thing….

Amen +Brent Burzycki.
+Warren Searle you are so right! I would LOVE to get up close to that just to see how it was done! Master craftwork there!

And let me add, kenny still owns the 9 wheel harley rig and looks just as good as it did in 1990.
What a unit, I hope it shows up in Sturgis sometime.
