I assume this is a show bike? I mean, that's sexy but I'm pretty sure even a rotax engine isn't supposed to support the entire load of the front end.

Edit: does it have brakes, at all?

There are actually quite a few bikes that integrate the engine into the frame

Craigslist find of the day, AS-R with a 888, hell yes!

From our local mtb forum:

And you know what would make it better? A 888 up front.

I know, but a 650 BMW isn't one of them. FSM knows that the one sitting in my garage sure isn't built like that.

Flat tracker. Brakes are for people who want to finish last.

A couple of years ago, BMW USA took the Rotax engine from an F 800 and gave it to legendary flat track builder Ron Wood. Wood obliged by building this exquisite machine, and on its very first competitive outing, it finished in sixth place.

The F 800 was the loudest bike on the track: the AMA race announcer reported that the BMW “sounded like a bear coming out of his den for the first time”. But aside from the exhaust system, the motor in this bike is mostly stock, and it even retains the electric start. Wouldn’t it be great if BMW made a road-legal version of this?

Yep, OG oceanfill FTW. That said, I have some morbid curiosity about riding that donkey bike. I'd be afraid of getting thrown out the front door, but it would still be amaze in a surreal way.

Average day in Australia, little snake in the backyard and a white tail spider in the dogs' water.

I generally like spiders but those are ugly fuckers. And the necrotic bite? FTS!

It ain't necrotic.

It's just a marsh snake, almost harmless.
Another harmless critter, turns out you have to shoot at around 1/10000th to freeze their wings, I don't have a flash good enough

Well yeah. Can't get the car dirty on the way to the track.

I assume the kitchen has a wood fired stove for pizzas. If not you'll need to get on that.

Add in the cost of the check, toner, person to print it and stuff In the envelope and it cost them well over a dollar to give you a penny

My buddy got one and framed it on his wall. Do that!

It costs more than a penny, to make a penny.

Around here no amount below $2 is neither collected or sent. Guess our gumint is smarterer.

I would imagine most coins cost more to make than they are worth
