Reminds me of a case when WW2 allied M4 Sherman crew needed to replace the engine, so they used 12 bike engines belted together

That sounds impressive, do you have a source for that? I know they did produce 7500 M4A4s which used 5 6-cylinder Chrysler car engines linked to one transfer case, but I've never heard of one using bike engines

Is this deliberately shit then?

That's so subjective. Like, I doubt it was the goal, but likely a known result because, let's face it, they're chainsaw engines. There is another guy on YouTube that does weird car stuff like made wheels out of wood or stone and slaps them on like, a Pinto . Everyone knows the wheels are going to break, but it's fun to watch them be made and tested to destruction anyway. It's more about doing something, just to do it.

No, I meant the fab work and the welding etc just all looks ropey AF. Obviously, it's not going to work well and is a silly idea, so no point trying too hard, just wondered if they do good work as well or it's all crap like this which is good for clicks but doesn't teach anyone anything worthwhile.

That said...72 is about perfect to keep up with traffic for the weight of it.

I can see it… children on scooter and dogs whizzing past at double your speed. I’d be scared for sure.

I think he was more worried about those motors exploding and spraying two-stroke napalm all over the place. But he didn't say, so idk
