Wonder what it turns in the quarter?

Otherwise it looks a lot like the trike I'm building.    :afro:

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.

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

Certainly does belittle the average "steam-punk" motorcycle interpretation... literally.

Unfortunately, he's in the boiler.  He thought it was an MRI machine and someone wanted steamed crabs  .  . . everybody won.

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 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:
