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.

VIZ Prior Art

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).

Thumb Up

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.

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?

appears to be air cooled...

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

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.
