No way. That didn't exist. It's a hoax.

Even if it did exist, what's the steering wheel for?

To swivel the motor.

I think that "steering wheel" might actually be the brake. And you steer by leaning.

With that prop pulling instead of driving the wheel, leaning may keep you going in the same direction, but leaning. :eek:

Looks top heavy. More of the mass, the guy's torso, the motor, all above the equator he's riding on.

Still, unbelievably cool.

Wow, those three-piece pushrods couldn't have had much of a lifespan...

I think that was designed with drag racing in mind so they wouldn't have to. It was the only way to get up through the heads, and the reason he gave it up when Ford came out with the cammer.
