I haven't been able to find out who built it. Perhaps 'Gary aka Triple obsession'? Although it looks like a drag bike, it is used as a pit/tow bike for a REAL drag bike.

"The Gurney ALLIGATOR has a look and riding feel unique and different from anything on the road. Unlike other motorcycles, the rider sits below the top of the tires with feet in a forward position. The fuel tank is mounted below the seat and behind the engine. Gurney originally moved in this design direction because he is tall and many bikes made him feel as if he were pitching forward when going downhill. The Alligator is this concept taken to its logical extreme. What works so well for tall people works equally well for people with shorter legs. They do not have any trouble getting on or off the bike, are no longer worried about falling over at a standstill and being closer to the ground, they feel much more comfortable and safe. This low CG concept has been developed and refined over the years into something quite extraordinary: a motorcycle with a confidence inspiring riding feel, obvious and significant aerodynamic benefits and most of all: a fun factor to match."

I've been in love with the Yamaha Venture since my first one in 1985. It was a 1983 Royale. The only thing I missed was the lack of a cruise control on the '83.

Toured many miles with that first Royale. Loved it. Loved it even more than the '90, but the '90 was really the ultimate, most comfortable touring bike I've ever had.

No I never had one as a kid. If I had, I probably wouldn't be around today to talk about it.
