Bike for sale on EBAY....Bizarre

I came across this from a RYCA link on FaceBook, someone put a TON of time into building it......time and money they will never get back LOL. IMHO sometimes you shouldn't climb that mountain just because you can.

I am sure there is some cool engineering there... but ok, form following function without any eye to aesthetics.. not for me.

Looks like he took anything he could find in the garage and built up something with a motor and two wheels.

That is absollutely obscene, a waste of time and money, and serves no purpose whatsoever. It is not art, it is not tranportation, and it not even worth buying for parts.

Even worse it says those are steamed bent wood......such a waste of time and resources that could have gone to a cool bike build

People do their own thing, but if you want a hand gear change, buy a vintage bike.

Obviously it was not meant to be ridden. First.....there is the seat issue. And with one hand on the clutch, the other hand tryig to figure out how to got between the throttle and shifter......you got nothing availble to wave at other bikers with!

Yeah, old riding buddy of mine had an old Harley with a foot clutch, hand shift and no front brake. He said it got real interesting stopped on a hill. You had one foot on the clutch, one foot on the rear brake and one foot on the ground.
