Biplane motorcycle

[Richard230]

Last night my airplane-owning friend sent me the attached photos of a cool biplane custom motorcycle that one his aircraft club members built years ago.

Way cool

I'm gonna say Way Stupid but that's too generous.

There's some serious effort in there! Metal work, wood work, painting and the fabric covering. Nevermind fitting it around the existing equipment. A+ for effort.

Nicely done!

My friend told me that the motorcycle was mostly for display and was not something that you would want to ride very fast or in a wind. Stable when moving, it was not.

It is a work of art but it belongs in a display!

😂😂😂

If you say so, Guido.

What part of 😂😂😂 don't you understand?

[guidoveloce]

I’d like to ride (or to fly with) that bike. Again 😂😂😂

Maybe it’s a little bit repetitive and Richard could be confused.

Maybe it’s a little bit repetitive and Richard could be confused.

Or perhaps something is lost in translation? It was the: "😂😂&#x1f602" that confused me. I have seen those sort of random figures, letters and numbers before on a couple of posts and wondered if they were the result of typing on an European cell phone.

It isn’t the translation. Then, I use an iPhone, which is the American cellular phone for excellence. It’s more likely to have been the result of my recent health experience that left something wrong in my brain connections. 🙂

As I can see the main feature of the Italian discussions, to leave the subject as soon as possible, is taking place also in the English discussions. 🤣

[Richard230]

What I am seeing at the end of the sentence in both of your posts immediately above is this: "&#x1f923". That looks like a password to me.

Wow, it's so cool!
