This is another tip we received on the tip line, and it could not wait for Hooniverse Two-Wheel Tuesday. It was sent in by fisheater (Thanks Man!) and according to his e-mail:
Saw this on reddit. Some mad genius took a 1.3L engine out of a Lada Samara, converted it to CNG, and stuffed it inside of a Cezet 175 motor cycle. His build quality is impeccable.
You will have to make the jump to see it though….
This is so bad ass…..

That is quintessentially Slavic it in its terrifying genius.
Post Apocalyptic Lada Bike.
That contraption hauls ass, I've got to admit. If he ever biffs it, and that gas cylinder goes off, he'll be a cancelled Czech. The bike kind of reminds me of this <a href="http://(http://www.factoryfat.com/roadog.html),” target=”_blank”>(http://www.factoryfat.com/roadog.html), the Roadog. Another home built bike with a car engine.
It looks like one of those movies where the aliens take someone and then turn them into a terrifying half-machine. Reused dash cluster, good God. Exposed belt and pulley at knee level right. The seat cushion. The fuel tank. The battery placement. The various reservoirs. I don't even know where to stop.
I'd stop no closer than 5 hearse-lengths back.
Does the rosary qualify as 'safety equipment'?
At one end he aptly installs a Jesus cross, and at other a nice dose of "hell-in-a-can".
The key should have a warning; "Do you feel lucky?"
Pure awesome.
Has a Samara engine ever sounded this good?
While it will (sort of) wheelie, and skid, there's no chance in the world that he's in danger of doing a stoppie & going over the front.
One tiny bit of danger eliminated. Now there's just the rest of it all to worry about.
That polish redneck is probably dead by now
