The "Fire Cycle" was a V8 trike built by Lars "Fritte" Fredriksson, the owner of Frittes billack.

Based on a Chevy smallblock V8, Fritte built a frame to support the driveline to the rear axle.

He made the body out of plywood and covered the inside, roof and seat with black vinyl.
In front a very long Harley-Davidson springer was installed.

We believe he got some inspiration from Ed Roth.

The trike with a "fireman doll" was very appriciated at the Hot Rod Show 1971 Marmorhallarna.

After that, Fritte unfortunatley decided to dismantle the trike and parts spread, so it had a short life.
