To quote vanzen: "Nothing about this machine is 'stock' or after-market accessory attainable ..."
That is some amazing engineering!

Yes, I believe the engine turns counter clockwise too. It runs down the road in reverse, and sucks up exhaust with it's pipes, and pumps clean air out of it carbs.....these in turn are able to convert hydro carbons into refined gasoline...which is run back up into the tank. Quite an impressive machine.

It looks like a body work kit. I like the style but it looks like a stock bike for the most part. Did I miss something?

If you look at the photos for Blaxer, the first row of pix, 2nd one from the beginning, the final drive and rear brake are......mystifying.

Essentially a low mileage stock 1979 RT stripped and fitted with cosmetic bodywork and bits
that are all available and attainable for a price from flatracer.
note: some of the photos in the "Blaxer" grouping are NOT photos of the Blaxer ...

Mystifying ? Yes. Especially since the drive and brake return to their intended sides in the 3rd pic ...twist wrote:

The 2nd image that we are talking about has been "flipped", in a mirror-image sort of way.Chuey wrote:It looks like a body work kit. I like the style but it looks like a stock bike for the most part. Did I miss something?

See the final drive on the left side of the bike?

I've thought about how this backward image could be made ...justoneoftheguys wrote: The 2nd image that we are talking about has been "flipped", in a mirror-image sort of way.

Went to Photostudio
and matched the results using the Photostudio edit / orientation / mirror function
