Now that's a serious thumper!
-
I'm in love.
-
Wonder what it turns in the quarter?
Otherwise it looks a lot like the trike I'm building. :afro:
-
Can't be ridden , no handlebars to countersteer with :evil:

Hey, it's a Hoggley Donaldson, they can't turn!
-
Okay, not that laughter gave me asthma! BRB, inhaler time!
-
Cast Iron!

The steering wheel is there on the left. The gunsight is up top on the boiler. The centerstand is not retractable.
I'm guessing it's inspirational equipment for a deep-fried-butter spin class. The spinner gets the wheel going, the piston pumps up the boiler and makes steam. The steam heats the deep-fried-butter fryer and the 'cycle' continues.
-
Ohh, deep fried butter. Sounds creamy!
County fair!

So... maybe it is the new Polarindian "Chef" :huh:

Can't be; no valenced fenders.
-
There will be as soon as someone brings a bucket of clams to steam*. :food:
*and some preschoolers with Elmer's glue
-
That will do then, sign me up. I love the opaque windshield!
Oh, who stole Elmer's glue from him?
-
Certainly does belittle the average "steam-punk" motorcycle interpretation... literally.

Where is Jay Leno?
-
Unfortunately, he's in the boiler. He thought it was an MRI machine and someone wanted steamed crabs . . . everybody won.
-
Jay Leno has crabs?
-
Naw, I'm just feeling libelous. :evil:
-
Good. I was a bit worried about that Vincent of his.
-
I can offer no reply to that. :bow:
-
yeah, you win. :bow:
-
I think that thread fell about as low as it could go. I am proud to have aided in digging the hole!
-
Aw c'mon guys , I was just riffing off both of you . We need a blushing emo . Yeah , we strive for "low" :grin:
Dusty
-
I knew I was at home here. We do need a blushing emo. Or at least one hiding behind a chair or something.
-
I just noticed that one of my comments didn't post. If you already thought we were at the bottom, then that's a good thing.

Toot! Toot! Thats an old design! Our steamscooters of today all have modern electrical and sound systems and are much easier to park! :shocked:

I feel a song coming on! "Tea for Two and two for tea ......" :grin:
-
It's an all-in-one motorcycle, competition BBQ smoker, and iron lung.
Awesome!
-
I thin I had one of those once! Isn't it a Honda reflex?
-
I found a better view of the steampunk motorcycle "Black Pearl" that shows more of the steering, front suspension and floorboards. It is a lot smaller than I thought it would be.

Hey! It looks like a beer keg replaced the boiler! :boozing:
-
It looked like a giant behemoth!
Question now is: would you ride it?
-
If it had a sidecar. Ya gotta have somewhere to carry the coal.
-
Now if you swapped ends and added a wheel and the banjo you'd visualize what I'm building.
-
Banjo?
-
Sorry, I guess that's a guitar.
