Steam filled handlebars, to suppliment the heated grips

Hollowed out tyres for lightness

Big magnets are affixed to the bottom of the bashplate. These attract the earths magnetic core, giving more grip.

Old valve springs on the handlebar ends. When it falls over, it just bounces back up again.

Each exhaust is rerouted into its opposite inlet tract. This gives a supercharging effect.

Daffodils are taped to the fork legs to provide extra ground clearance...... Everyone knows that daffys rise up in the spring. These are removed in the summer.

And a Y piece of course.

- oil radiator bug screen owner fabricated out of black fiberglass screening.
