back to article Bog builder pushes out poo-powered motorbike

Japan's leading toilet manufacturer has really pushed the float out with its promotional activities, creating a poo-powered motorcycle with its own built-in lav-look seat. The Toilet Bike Neo runs on biofuels such as compressed livestock waste and household wastewater, so while the design looks like a portaloo on wheels, it …

    "squeezing out a Richard the Third"

    As any fule kno, the correct use of rhyming slang should be rather more like 'squeezing out a Richard', on the assumption that all the cool kids will be aware of the complete phrase and its derivation and not need it spelling out.

    It's a blatant copy of Mickey's Monkey Spunk Moped.

      WTF?

      NTNN Prior prior art

      Viz prior art? Almost the same design featured in a fake advert in (IIRC) the Not the Nine O'Clock News book in about 1982 (and possibly in the TV series, which I missed because my parents were luddites and refused to have a telly). In a poke at the decline of British manufacturing industry, the "advert" stated that the frame and engine were made in Japan. But the porcelain components were British. (Vis's simian-fueled moped didn't appear until 1993.)

      Moped

      Wasn't Mickey eventually fined by the courts for animal cruelty and told to stop using monkeyspunk? I'm sure the last panel I ever read was him outside a zoo asking the 'keeper if he had any leopards' fanny batter!

      Either way - bloody hilarious!

    Crap puns

    I had a similar bike once, it was a Sackacacki and featured a SatLav.

    The chain broke in the end, so it had to be crapped.......err I mean scrapped.

    Main issue with it is the massive skid marks

    Crap Puns?

    At 50mph its a bit quicker than a "pony" but definitely not like shit off a shiny shovel.

    So no (bog)brush with the law for speeding.... I'd give it a "number two" out of ten.

    Just wondering what you could squeeze out of it between refills too.

    Right... off for an Eartha!!

    How well sealed is it?

    What happens in a crash if the fuel container breaks and the contents hits the fan?

    1. The Flying Dutchman

      appears to be air cooled...

      ...but apparently doesn't have a fan. So I'd say no worries here.

    If vans powered by vegetable oil smell like a chip shop...

    ... I don't want to be behind that bike.

    Another great invention -

    They appear to have pioneered the 3 wheel motorbike. Some people might have gone for a trike in that situation.

    "The bog bike can reach maximum speeds of around 50mph..............."

    Try in on the result of several lagers and a curry vindaloo - reckon it might achieve escape velocity under those conditions.
