I saw this weird concoction for sale on Yahoo Auctions today:







According to the blurb, the owner has lost interest and wants money to fund a new project; a motorcycle with a radial engine (presumably from an aircraft), which can be seen in the background of one of the images.

Apparently, the bike was last run two years ago and is (obviously) very dusty. The frame is 1989 GSXR1100 and the engine is 1977 GT750. The expansion chambers are made from brass, with titanium silencers.

More images (including a video of the bike being ridden) can be found by searching Instagram for member 'builderjunjun'.

The asking price is 10 Million Yen (about 55,000 GBP), so the owner is obviously prepared to wait for the 'right' buyer!

Here is the auction listing: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e1115464971

Regards,
James
