steam rollers, steam boats, steam cars even,
but never a steam motorbike, until now,
the bike is driven by a direct drive rear wheel crankshaft,
and is the work of René van Tuil, at Revatu Customs in the Netherlands, it does
have it's limitations, the top speed is only 5 mph, although not mentioned I
guess the handling would leave a little to be desired and I did not see how the
brakes worked,
but with a name like the Black Pearl from the movie with it's
nautical connections to stop you just throw an anchor off the back! but
seriously what a feat of engineering.
