Very cool. I think I need one. Is that supposed to be an antiaircraft gun?
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
I think it's one of the water cooled machine guns, Randy.
That would come in handy here with the rude ones on the bike trails here
Can I get one with phasers?
Made to rid the world of those darn spandex wearing bikers that think they own the road! 😁
Novel concept, but I don't like it.
Bike replaces the tripod and tripod bearer, right?
So who totes the ammo and feeds the beast?
And there is no armor, no shielding from opposing fire, so maybe the biker/gunner wouldn't need much ammo anyway.
In other words, yes.

Good point. It looks like it just needs a modification to add some armor plate inside the bike frame. You could at least get a modicum of concealment that way.

Don't forget to let it cool real good before you hop back on the bike. I bet that's why it was never a big hit, hot tamales!
I understand the concept of what they’re trying to do, but, not practical in my opinion. But you know what they said about weapons from Europe back then. If anyone can build the worse weapon the French will build it. The French Chauchat they said was worse machine gun ever designed.
I think it's obvious why nobody has ever heard of this thing. That's probably the only one ever made, cobbled up by some "military genius" only to be laughed off the field at the first demonstration.
One more example of the adage: Any idea that starts with "All you have to do is..." is a bad one.
If you were able to trip the trigger with it in the stowed position you could lay down some suppressive fire whilst getting a boost in your getaway!
Back in the late 1980's........in a stretch of daredevil-ism.......I trained and rode the Hotter`n He'll Hundred bike ride twice. The toughest, most exhausting thing I ever accomplished.
That said.......THAT bike would have come in handy.....in response to cars containing coke/beer can throwers. Luckily for me, they had no clue of the ballistic coefficient of their empty cans.😎
I'll see your bicycle and raise you a scooter.
Now that's how you get thru rush hour traffic! The ultimate lane-splitting machine!

I’ll take two, when can you have them ready. I noticed that the tube is rifled, apparently a recoilless type weapon. Do you know it’s origin?
The true definition of a "Crotch Rocket"!!! 🤪😎
