I certainly hope the driver's side is on the right wherever they are.

Why does he do it?
Same reason dogs lick their b@&*£&^s - because they can.

The bike is a Royal Enfield Silver Bullet.

It was an English bike from the 40's and 50's that was made in Enfiled (what a surprise)and under license in India.

It's a 500cc Single cylinder thumper, a simple joy to look at.

They are still made brand new to this day in India.

You can buy them from the web site.

I'm just trying to figure out how he's keeping it from stalling.

Is there a comment of the day on Neato? If so, I nominate VonSkippy!

If not, why not? While we're at it, maybe a boneheaded comment of the day award too?

How on earth do you brake or stop the bike whilst not losing your balance getting down?

In indonesia I saw a few people riding bicycles while sitting on the rear mudguard or the bag rack. The bikes all had seats but they just chose not to use them, I thought that was pretty bizzarre, but compared to this it's plain ordinary

A guy did that once while I was riding on the back of the motorcycle. But he didn't keep his hands in his pockets! That was a long time ago, when I was a teenager. I believe I was covering my eyes most of the time.
