I think I've seen those electric frying pan handlebars in the JP Cycles catalogue, but now I'm not certain. It may have been the Rachel Ray (Rae) roadshow.
Soren had those pipes mounted when the Idaho decibel police stopped him for a little visit a few years ago.

It looks kinda like something Jacques Cousteau might have ridden.

It's French isn't it? Maybe from the late 20s?
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)

I'll see that and raise you a "ner-a-car"  but I have seen yours before - I'll get my "Art of the Motorcycle" book. Ahh, got it, a Majestic? France in the 30's?

It's a double post, that's what it is (at least I think so...)

Well you got the awe part right ... it is awesome!! I mean look at it, study it... it is a thing of perpetual intrigue. How, and I mean HOW do you think it showed up here if it was just another something awful? I LOVE IT and think it is the best wood stove design ever imagined!!
Live to love, love to live.

I kind of like it in an oddly interesting sort of way. Like the Earls front end on my old BMW.

You know, that makes me think. Is Ness a French name?

Well GB, I'm not sure about THAT, but seein' as how you brought up the name "Ness" here, I'm now thinkin' that the bike Paul posted above might just look a little like "NessIE"!!!  
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
