Wink 13.5HP Honda.....the deathtrap

Honda 13.5hp in a home made rig....click on pics to enlarge....scary!







This is the result of someone that just has way too much time on their hands.....just glad it's not me...any volunteers to ride such a contraption?

It's really just one step further along from putting a motor on a Huffy that can barely hang together as a pedal bike. There are plenty of bad ideas to go around; this is not the worst of them.

That is a photo from Burning Man, but I did not take it. I've never been there, nor have I seen the Riot Wheel in person.
