Default Sewage Powered Motorcycle

Talk about a unique bike!

Motorcycle Powered by Sewage. Serious.

When you think you have seen everything, something new is “pooping up.” A Japanese toilet maker named Toto created a trike running on sewage, apparently the cheapest renewable energy. Yes, you can run on household and livestock waste, broken down and fermented, company spokesman Kenji Fujita said.

The motorcycle can reach 45 miles per hour and was used for a 600 mile promotional trip across Japan. As you can see it features a non-useable toilet and the 6 riders who rode it 100 miles each found it comfortable. No, it will not be mass produced but you could build yours and bring you a “Most Unusual” Class trophy in the next Daytona Bike Week Rat’s Hole Show. (on a lead of Ken Glenn)
