Can die now. Have seen it all. Mother of all GL1100's

Went to pick up some Valkyrie bling from a fellow today. I tell you he should be featured on American Pickers. Fun guy. I ended up hanging around in the heat for almost two hours. Crazy wrench. Every imaginable project in all stages of <de>construction. One in particular caught my eye.

An '82 GL1100. I'll let the pics speak for themselves:

Does the drive go into a second gearbox driving a sprocket on the left side?

Confession time: There's a normal GL swingarm, differential and wheel underneath that pretend Hoosier meat. He built it to take to shows and park as a conversation piece.

Well then, that would answer my question... Why go to all that effort and keep the stock carbs? The flip-flips hanging from the ape hangers are a nice touch.
