    Now I've seen it all.

    I was going to put this in the jokes and humour section, but I'm sure someone will be along to defend individuality. Fair enough too, no problem with people doing what they want with their money. But to me, this is just plain ugly. And I bet it handles like the titanic. After it sunk...

    The two chains are a clever idea but think of the drive line power loss.

    The iPod speakers look silly.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    two questions

    Is he taking it racing on a beach?

    Does he need a side stand with tyres that fat?

    I think that it is both stupid and dangerous - the rider would be in danger of Darwining himself! I have heard of a death due to messed up handling after changing a rear tyre for something different to what the bike is designed to use - that makes me think it is a really bad idea.

    FFS...I bet Mr Suzuki forbids all dealerships worldwide to sell that owner another of his bikes...

    I built a minibike a few years ago, (wellallright, was a few decades ago) with exactly that drive detail. Avoided the usual minibike rear sprocket size 1/2" smaller than the tyre.

    If a 4hp B&S can handle the double-wrap I reckon most road bikes would manage OK.
