Now that's original. Maybe the should stick the propellar back on as well for some extra go, or to blow dry his hair anyway?

Not a new idea. After WW1 several designs came out with Radial , Inline and Rotary Aircraft engines. I've got a book on vintage bikes that has picture of several. Imagine that type of engine in a 1920's bike. No front brake, frame that would normally house a mighty 5Hp engine and skinny bicycle type tyres....... Need big balls to ride something like that. As for the one in the picture above, I respect the engineering involved but thats about it........

Ozkat, the exhaust is the dimpled aluminium shroud gigger. Look closely, the outlet is at the bottom near the rear brake pedal.

The Underground Buildoff was won by Builder 08(the Yami inline 4). But , he severely cheated and got sprung. Amongst other things he created 15 extra member accounts off his home IP and they voted for him. As he only won by 6 votes you see were this is a major problem. But, the second place getter(the bloke that lost by 6 votes) cheated as well but admitted to it before the vote rigging was found out. Seee, instead of spending $1000US as per the rules on the build he spent $2300US.... The only person that didn't cheat was the bloke with the Virago.... It turned into a big mess and I turned my back on the site and most of it's people. Fucking Yanks, one of the big cheaters publicly tried to out me for cheating(I didn't) by over spending my budget and the other accused me of trying to vote stack during the contest.......

Yeh. Pathetically funny. The "win at all cost" guys were the biggest advocates of sticking to the rules and making others do so. The vote rigger also finished the winning frame about 3-4 weeks before the contest started while idiots like me waited for the start date.... I should get you to go and PhoneBook them for me Rich........I'll do a proper thread on what actually happened soon.

I didn't finish. It was one of those times were life turned nasty. I had a legal shitfight with the Ex at the same time and had to sell most everything I owned to keep the solicitors happy. I ended up finishing the main frame cradle and sold it for $1K to Allan from the South Coast. He indicated at the time that he'd ship it back to get a subframe mounted and all the little brackets needed but I haven't heard back from him since. Sold the front end to Deano, the engine/injectors/electrics/pipes to Alex from the Central Coast. Sold the rear wheel to a yob from Cairns(who resold it on eBay 2 weeks later) and sold most of the left overs on eBay. I still keep tripping over the swingarm & other parts but will get rid of them eventually.
