Wood Motorcycle!

Wood motorcycle - still a MAKE mystery
normal_HPIM0679k.jpg
Cparada writes in with some more clues to origins of the wood motorcycle - "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 - Small world... but still no name for the artist." - Link.

Re: Wood Motorcycle Maker

Jabari,

from the page at makezine.com that you link to above:


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 [at] gmx.de

bye

Re: Wood Motorcycle!

Hi Jabari,

Interesting find!
I'll have to check out the - Classic Motorrads Deutschland.
Did you see the entry where the alleged owner posted?

Edit: I see Crusher posted the content.

Re: Wood Motorcycle!

Well they are both renewable, when they get old just use the wood to heat your home.
What about DMV etc?
