Title: Interesting ride...
Post by Serowbot on 02/13/18 at 08:21:38

Ignoring the fender wheel ratio,... it's a pretty interesting bike.
I especially like the steampunk tank gauges... :) (Hmmm,.. how can I put them on my Savage?)...
It even has a reverse... :-?

Hay ! One of those Old Enfields with oil lines running everywhere would be a good place to start for a steam-punk machine .

So was that originally a WWII Harley-Davidson Side hack 45? Looks good now. Those still turn up from time to time. Our Government left those all over the world. Cheaper to "write off" than to bring back, I was told.

Why would it have reverse? I can understand that for a really heavy bike ... but, why on this?

Most likely for sidecar use.

This was a Japanese copy of the Harley military bike.
