Wild Bill Gelbke built the World's Largest Motorcycle, this thing in his cycle shop, in his spare time. He values
it at $40,000. Do you value it? Why not? It's gorgeous.
The massive trailing-link front end is supported by four shock absorbers. A can of Busch sits atop the fork
crown. The steering seems to be controlled hudraulically. The clip-ons look like handles on a periscope; they
are somehow linked to two tie-rods that eventually end up turning the front wheel.
The engine is a four-eylinder Chevrolet of unknown vintage. The driveline seems to be unaltered until the
differential, which probably has been sawed in half..
The exhaust pipe snakes about in random fashion and appears to have swallowed something at the half-way
point.
