Anybody else wanna see the full set of pics on that rig? OK, well here they are. Sorry it's not a sixer, guys, but if I built it, it would be!

Pretty slick. That's the kind of eye candy we need to see going into the winter months, then watch what shows up in the spring.

Did you notice that the "bike's" rear wheel is not connected to the bike at all, but is, instead, suspended AND driven from the sidecar? The drive goes from the engine to the sidecar's axle first, and then transfers over to the wheel under the rear of the "bike". This rig could actually be called a two-wheeled, powered sidecar with a steerable unicycle attached! VERY innovative engineering! And, nicely executed!

Right out of the box thinking and an absolute masterpiece of engineering.

I love his train of engineering thought, if not his overall concept for a few of his rigs, like that quad! I know of two small high-performance sports cars that use the same drive-trains to better advantage.
