I've not seen one with four pipes before.

Aaaah, the Steam Punk bike.
Nope, those pipes don't play the right tune for my liking 😁😁😁.
This bike has been up for sale for a long, long time now, its a scam of some sort.... They ad doesn't show the photos with the  bully, nutter, weirdo posing by it any more 😂😂😂

Nobody going to comment on the fire-extinguisher-fuel-tank "shit-off" valves?  Oh, wait - I just did!

Is that the same fella who's in the other items listed by the seller?  Looks like it might be this geezer (https://www.gumtree.com/p/books/new-release-april-2020-book-in-for-a-penny-...-in-for-a-pound-by-scott-matthews-looooooooook/1371645042).

Um . . . oh.

It's amusing that he has an interest in "time travel" and further so that also involves brass and plumbing fittings,  the bigger the better  ;D

What is it within a dramatist's psychological makeup that equates plumbing of various sizes ( it's always there) with the ability to travel through time?  Along with Victorian button down upholstery  ::)

Nearest we've seen to time travel is long, white, and pointy , in the form of Concorde.  Even that has no inch and a half brass compression fittings  :D just Aeroquip .

Perhaps if he's got genuine time travel skills we could ask him to nip into Tippets Honda of Surbiton in 1972 with a parts shopping list we can knock together for mutual benefit  ;D

They must all be fans of HG Wells stories and films. 😂

Is this bike giving birth to the brass section of an orchestra? Hate it! Each to their own.
