12-14-2012, 04:15 PMFu..k me! This is actually in Bulgaria. Judging from the license plates, it's in the town of Burgas, on the Black Sea coast.
lipsee, oddly enough this not the first fire extinguisher exhaust I've seen round here. I don't know if you understood enough, but the ignition for example is a hybrid from Trabant (famous East German "car") and from a Chinese scooter Alternator is from Toyota, and in the past the "differential" was from a harvester.

Rat bikes
Ratbike engineering: Sound joint between sections of exhaust pipe without the use of welding equipment.
The concept of keeping a motorcycle in at least minimally operational condition without consideration for appearance has probably characterized motorcycle ownership since its earliest days.[2] The essence of a rat bike is keeping a motorbike on the road for the maximum amount of time while spending as little as possible on it.[3] This calls for adaptation of parts that were not designed to fit the model of bike in question. While the origin on the term ratbike is unclear, it may attributed to custom motorbike magazines,[4][5] and retrospectively applied. Most Rat bikes are painted matte black but this is not a requirement.[6]DT

Some guys aren't afraid of a little snow ...
I'm not one of them.
EDIT - for some reason, the embedded Youku doesn't work in my Chrome browser, but works in Firefox (no idea about IE). Here is the direct link:

Dancho, guy in a jumpsuit said that diff earlier was off a harvester. On a clip is a diff off a Yamaha XS 750. It is possible, because they are not talking about classical differentials as you can see on the car or truck, but the one, not that big assembly, that transmits torque to a single shaft.
Here's how it looks: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1979-Yamaha-...-/370472637711
There are a lot of interesting things on the bike: ZZR's front fork with the wheel, Lada Niva's modified rear shock absorbers, Opel Omega's calipers, old Lada's brake disc, Wartburg's wheel on rear...
But in this clip, funniest is the dialogue between the man in jumpsuit (which is a Bulgarian) and a cameraman (who is a Russian) and his comments. I'm sorry that I cannot translate all this into English.Last edited by Zorge; 12-16-2012 at 06:42 AM.
