Saw that in an amcn mag a few months back and thought that looks pretty cool.

Love the shovel.

[jim.cox]

I'd rather have a WR250 myself...

I like the little spanner so blind riders can find the tools.

Was it in Braille? :)
Very nice, like it......Never get here, but you never know.
I wonder what type of tyres were on that beast? They looked unfamiliar.
Looks a lot better than the serow anyhow....wouldn't be hard.

[Padmei]

very cool. def a contender for the cool wall.

[Sable]

No way in hell. Looks like a Rokon.

[CrazyFrog]

Functional..... Yes.
Cool ....... Fuck No. Styling is ugly. That thing is a leap light years backwards, I think the German BMW's in WW2 were cooler. At least they had the sense to paint theirs a mean ass grey colour, and they had machine guns.

Needs a bigger engine too.

[pete-blen]

It has its appeal..but would need to see it
in the flesh...
I would buy the XTX250

There was a bike made in Stratford in the 1960s that looked just like that only with tractor tyre tread.a And a waterpipe frame

my cousin had one of those, bloody ripper work horse and a lot of fun for us kids

[avgas]

Yes I would.
Although I would be wanting a 230v setup please.

It would have to be farkin heavy though with a generator on board- they weigh a ton!

[TrentNz]

sure is an ugly fucker... but the concepts their i guess.

Nah its using the bike as a generator. Flip down centre stand. Start bike and let it idle. Thats why the engine has a little side fan.

[Night Falcon]

I'd buy one but only if it was orange and had a gas burner and shaft drive :shifty:

Almost exacary what I thought. Head straight for the horizon.

[Padmei]

I like that seat & the shovel idea is a great concept - only really useful for burying your poos tho I think.

Motor is same I know- but the windings-the armature for 240 volts 1.5kv will weigh about 20kg

I think you mean 1.5kW or 1.5kVA.......and this is not in the same league. I think you will find its around 0.5kVA or less (prob 200w or less).
I have run 200w 230V inverter on a bike before. But its better if its designed around it better.

[NordieBoy]

Pity they don't have a 350 motor to put in it.

Then it'd be a modern TW/BW350.
