Ah yes, H-D parts, well the rear sprocket (chromed of course) hanging by the back door makes an ideal 'gong' for your other half to bang on to let you know somebody wants you on the phone. Can even hear it over the noise of the lawn mower.

Mount the bike upside down next to the shower head in the ...erm...shower.
Remove the/a spark plug, drill and tap into the top of the piston and screw in a long piece of rod.
At the end of the rod attach a scrubbing brush.
Engage a gear and turn the wheel (or get a 'friend' to do it for you).
As you turn the wheel the brush will move up and down and you can back up to it to get to those hard to reach spots.
Change to the appropriate gear to get the speed you want.
To make things a bit more convivial make sure you use a multicylinder - a twin, triple or even four just multiplies the fun.

Put slicks on and use as a pastry roller.

Make a mousetrap.
Prop it up on a drinking straw above a piece of cheese (anything heavier than a drinking straw would be too hard for a mouse to move).
Tie a piece of string between the cheese and the straw.
When a mouse grabs the cheese, two hundred kilos of motorbike will topple off the drinking straw and crush the life out of the evil little creature.
Aaahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!

A toy mouse ...made to look like he is running in his wheel With a photo of a cat pinned behind the wheel

a belt drive off the mouses wheel disappearing into the alternator side and the gear box sprocket connected by drive chain ... to a old Ac 3 phase electric motor ,,which has a lead that the tv runs off

So it LOOKS like the mouse is driving the engine ..which inturn is powering the 3phase Ac motor , which looks like the TV is being powered by the AC motor

you coul even rig up a few amp meters to swing wildly ........

The whole arrangement would of course be powered by a small cheap ac motor hidden in the engine !!!
