Nope, we probably didn’t take these photos. Yup, we probably swiped them from another forum, blog or website. It seems that there’s a trend wherein the blogs are expecting a little recognition or credit. Fine. I respect that, because they made this thread, albeit now over a year old now, possible. So, post up the source when you can and let’s give credit where credit’s due.

Photo Numero Uno was from the Cycle Zombies (CZ) Blog

Weird man!

Alligator bike?

[mrbones]

Yes, Mommy. Please use the handcuffs.

[mrbones]

Is that a Goldwing front end?

[dt]

What the heck are all those tanks on the back?

[mrbones]

NOS?

[dt]

This thing really is weird.

[dt]

These appear to be modern versions of the weird uni-cycle…equally weird.

[dt]

What’s faster?
   48 cylinders and 4,200 cc’s
   24 chainsaw engines

[mrbones]

I've seen that weird circle bike before. Maybe it was on TV. I remember the guy crashing pretty good.

Which is faster? I'm betting on the 24 chainsaw engines assuming they are 2 stroke. You gotta pull start every one of those?

Crazy!

There is no shortage of weird motorcycles. Here are a couple bikes with radial airplane engines:

I found the Mono-Wheel Crash Newsreel. This is ASTOUNDING! The guy gets thrashed around like a rag doll.

Yeah, that wreck is funny. No gear riding that thing?!

I remember seeing a radial engine Jesse James chopper in Cycle World. I'm sure he was the first to do it. It looked awsome.

It would appear Gary has subsequently decided to go with protective gear…plus a stabilizer thingamajig to increase the weirdness of the Mono-Wheel.

[dt]

Spike-Bike!

[dt]

Diesel Power. That's a big bike!

[dt]

This Kawasaki ZX10R has 12 loudspeakers with 1,500 watts of output, two iPod’s, a Sony PSP, a flat screen with DVD and remote control, and a connection for an electric guitar.

[dt]

This is a Yamaha R1 that someone chromed, totally.

[dt]

Mobile Moonshine? No it's much more boring. It's a mobile bar-b-que that some restaurant owner commissioned OCC to build.

[dt]

ZX-6R Ninja with triangle wheels? No way does this work.

This bike is dedicated to mrbones and bagobones and anyone else with bones in their handle.

[mrbones]

Those are some oddball bikes! That skeleton bikes kicks ass! Where did you find that photo? I want more info on that sucker. Notice it even has hands holding the front axle.

[bagobones]

The skele-bike leaves me speechless. I noticed that the exhaust is pointed right up AT THE RIDER. I guess riding that bike would leave me "hearing-less" as well.

SOme time back Jesse James built a bike with an airplane motor. I think it was on the cover of cycle world. In the article he sheepishly admits to putting the whole thing together without regard to which way the airplane engine rotated, and when he first fired it up, up ran backwards! OOPS! Jesse is funny as hell.

[mrbones]

It's hard to tell where the foot pegs are on that thing. Maybe the exhaust is just above your right leg? Ride with caution. Just imagine seeing that thing go down the road.
