I saw this in a museum in Boise Idaho. Thought it was pretty cool. Should have a great power to weight ratio.

That's just a mere "baby" motor scooter, and with training wheels, no less. How 'bout a real bike with a V-12 Lincoln for "scoot"? DD

Both very cool. The V8 has a tank shifter and looks like an early ford 3 speed? Can see a square box I think is the ****** on the V12, could it be from a Harley? Both interesting and very cool as screen background on my computer.

The little thing interest me. How do they cool the V-12? I do not see a radiator.
I do see the water pump and it has a belt on it.

It was a standard Ford side shift transmission with linkage going to the tank.

I'll guarantee that there's a radiator inside that spare-tire-looking affair at the rear. Note cap on top! DD
