He's just multi-tasking - who needs a BowFlex when you can do lat pull downs and leg extensions while riding.

 
Check out the location of the mirror. He would need to look up at 11 o'clock to check the traffic behind.

 
Does that sign say Missouri? I was expecting he'd be from a little further west. :lol:

 
I'm not seein' a front brake lever, I suppose it could be hiding behind his hand but if that's the case how the hell does he manage to pull it? ...and is that a jockey shift made of a faucet handle under his butt? Must be, since there ain't a clutch lever either! Now all he needs is an open primary, so on one his late nite blasts home from the Tav' he can grab a handfull & have it chew off a coupla digits!! Sheeeez!

 
Stupid is as stupid does...

I am still waiting for the first FJR with ape-hangers and an extended front fork...

 
In all seriousness, what's the purpose of this kinda bike? I mean jeebus, it can't do anything well. It doesn't even work well as art or as a ***** extension.
Well, it got his picture on the neenernet, and it started an entertaining topic for humorous banter on at least one forum. :rolleyes:

 
Thanks goodness!!

I woke up this morning with this odd sensation, that yes indeed, I *have* seen it all.

But now that I opened this thread, I can very fortunately discard that sillyness.

Whew!! That was close!

Funny,

I recently rode a buddies HD that had some ape hangers. They were pretty large ones (smaller than above) and my hands were over my head. The one thing I noticed right away about ape hangers was that slow speed maneuvers are not your friend. Now, I can see why a lot of folks with them drag their feet during slow speed maneuvers! At speed, they weren't difficult to have control but small inputs made for much larger steering responses.

I couldn't image riding with a huge set like the above and I wouldn't want to!!
