That stupid idea I mentioned ...

[Bearbonesnorm]

... it moves another step closer to becoming a stupid reality.

Isn’t your Moulton missing its wheels?

[boxelder]

Ooooooh, looks super duper boost?

[fatbikephil]

For going down big hills with only gravity involved??
Or is a V dub motor and a pair of wheels going on the back??

There are engine mounts but it's far smaller than in might appear in the picture

I'm more worried that it's in the house Stu not the workshop. Unless you have a very neat workshop....

Top work though - will it be a bit noodley though?

[Bearbonesnorm]

That is my workshop Steve but in fairness, it's the tidy bit.

will it be a bit noodley though?

Shouldn't be, there's a lot of triangulation going on (even more so with the lump bolted in place) ... think Ducati but smaller.

That seat tube looks a very small diameter...

Inspired by the recent chat about Jeff Jones' creations?

One of my favourite bikes from the 1980/90s was the Honda VT500. Lovely engine. Dreadful handling. Death brakes. But the donk was brilliant for something with about 50hp, especially in traffic.

You got one of them in mind Stu?

[Dave Barter]

That's going to be one hell of a lawnmower

[Bearbonesnorm]

You got one of them in mind Stu?

No, in truth I'm no fan of the VT and this is much sillier

[JohnClimber]

That's one hell of a....... Fat bike

Morini??
Honda 125 varadero lump?

[FLV]

I dunno what it is, but I’m interested

[Keith74]

Nice bit of work.

Looks interesting. Hopefully a 2 stroke slots in there

Sorry Phil, I think my Ducati comment was something of a curve-ball - not a V twin, sorry.

[fatbikephil]

OK, C90 lump?

[godivatrailrider]

Buell based ? I had an S1WL, stunning bike

[pistonbroke]

Sur-Ron electric motor and a long extension lead, it's the future

[Robster]

Wasn’t there mention of an old Brit single awhile back?

Looks interesting!

[Alpinum]

Stu saw this and wanted to make one himself

He's soon off to chase some rally folks.

Good luck.

C90 lump?

A Friday prize for Phil - sort of
