Motorcycle Powered by Sewage. Serious.

Published by Cyril Huze November 15th, 2011 in Builders, Customs and Editorial.

When you think you have seen everything, something new is “pooping up.” A Japanese toilet maker named Toto created a trike running on sewage, apparently the cheapest renewable energy. Yes, you can run on household and livestock waste, broken down and fermented, company spokesman Kenji Fujita said.

The motorcycle can reach 45 miles per hour and was used for a 600 mile promotional trip across Japan. As you can see it features a non-useable toilet and the 6 riders who rode it 100 miles each found it comfortable. No, it will not be mass produced but you could build yours and bring you a “Most Unusual” Class trophy in the next Daytona Bike Week Rat’s Hole Show. (on a lead of Ken Glenn)

    That trike is full of crap. This is the shittiest idea I have ever seen. My neighbors yard is now fuel storage. I could smell this thing coming from a half a world away. All this time I have wasted flushing away a renewable source of energy. This bike run’s on the lowest octane ever “2”. This trike will be very popular in Cleveland. Who fart….. Oh screw it. I’m done.

    Word from the grapevine is that the Motor Company may sue over the design, giving “intellectual property” as just cause.

    Apparently the Company claims that they have been designing bikes that run off of BS ideas for years. LOL

    Only problem…I wouldn’t be able to ride it and read my magazines and newspaper as usual.

    With some of the people I’ve seen on this blog they should get one. It would be able to do warp 3 and go from coast to coast in 15.9 seconds !!!!

    I guess if you wanna drag race, you’d better load up on ex-lax.

    We could run these on politicians since they’re all full of shit.

    So when someone says “your bike is looks like shit….” etc etc

    BUT… the French have a trial bike in Paris with a large top box on the back and a hose that sucks up the dog poo.. They tried that idea out in sleepy old Dorset (England) using a golf buggy style car – for sucking up Canadian Goose shit from the park..

    Nobody may have hit the nail on the head. You could collect all the crap from washington and most likely power every vehicle in Los Angeles. Energy crisis solved
