Wooden motorcycle

Does anyone still have a picture saved of the Harley that was built from 2X4's and 4X4's.

Does anyone remember the post it was shown? No pun intended.

Thanks,

.why do you call it a Harley made of 2x4's. Is it the engineering? Just sayin

[latexeses]

I thought that is what it was called in the original post. Oh Lord, I may have offended a Harley rider.

I APOLOGIZE AT ONCE FOR MY TRANSGRESSION.

There is a poster on another site that uses a picture of that bike as his avatar, and yes he is a Harley rider.

Can anybody tell just what motor this thing does have? It's not any HD motor I've ever seen; looks like some kind of big single.

Love the car rear wheel....

hey Steve,
I found this on the internet.. so take it for what that's worth... but:

This "Holzmotorrad" has been around a while - The (VERY old) 25 HP Honda has been remade as an Alabama Harley in some photos. There's something odd about the streetscape, buildings, cobblestones... and a pair of VWs).

In addition to RatBike, it shows up on a great site for arcane bikes: Classic Motorrads Deutschland - http://www.classic-motorrad.de/galer...&cat=0&pos=585

Small world... but still no name for the artist.

Hey Guys

My name is Mathias and I come from "good ol´ Germany". The Wood Motorcycle on the Picture is made by me. The Build takes about 9 months. Like a child :-) It´s a Honda CB250 RS engine with 22 Horsepowers inside. It´s enough for a topspeed from over 75mph.
For more questions, ask me at holzrocker@gmx.de

bye

here's the link to the site where I found the info:

Wow, 75 MPH?

That guy has a set, don't he?

[LoHo]

Say, isn't that a Special gas tank?

[DiverRay]

Say, isn't that a Special gas tank?

I think the BIKE is "Special"

[latexeses]

I don't think a Special tank holds that much gas.

DiverRay,

That thing sure looks like it came out of a "can we build a bike in an afternoon" type of dare, doesn't it?

Deb is wondering if this is the motorcycle version of a "Woodie".
