The Mystery Bike.




Believed to be our first Mystery Bike, this elegant, aluminum Ducati-based dustbin special still makes our heart stop in awe. Sadly the builder still remains a mystery as xmasons flickr photostream only refers to it as a fictional Spagthorpe.

Another mystery bike.

This mystery bike comes from portalmotos "odd bike"thread. Looking like something out of a bad French Science Fiction film, the rider in the top photo peers through a slitted visor only used for gazing into pulsing atomic reactors. Still it's all great fun-and besides I never thought screen door mesh could be used as an aerodynamic aide as I think it would somehow defeat the purpose. Any clues to this bikes origin are most welcome.

The mystery bike.

You have to love the interweb, I saw this amazing special Dustbin Fairing special just a few miles from my home and was sadly unable to chase the rider down. Only a few days later during my evening of blog content searching I found these pictures of the same bike on the Pashnit "weird bike" forum thread. It was seen on a local Doc Wong instructional ride, but sadly the rider was not found.

So we await for the builder/owner of this amazing bike to stand up and take a bow....
