ever heard of the Killinger and freund motorcycle?

An amazing piece of German tech that had a 3 cylinder motor mounted in the FRONT WHEEL! Motor and trans were both up front the spokes were actually cooling fins! Was captured at the end of WW2 and is on display here in the U.S.

Update:

you can see it on facebook page RIDING VINTAGE
