I don't see any point in that.  It doesn't look very cool.  Now face 'em backward and shoot 'em off when the gangsta idiot in the cager decides to get as close as possible to the back of the bike...that sounds like a good plan.

I love it.  He needs to work on directional control though.  It looks like he is just making big bottle rockets with model rocket engines.

Yep, just big bottle rocket type deals.

Well, as much bashing as he might catch, at least it looks like he knows what he's doing from the fabrication end of things. I don't think I could knock that out in 15 hours...

And as far as Darwin, not even an honorable mention candidate... yet. To win one you must do something to remove yourself from the gene pool. 9 times out of 10 than means you get yourself dead, but there's a few where folks have.. um... well gotten out of the pool alive, mostly.

i love it!

i was actually going to post a link to the story myself.

he needs a longer tube to help keep them from shooting off the side like that. possibly make them less bottle rocket like and more actual rocket like to keep them on target and in a straight line.

Firing those things off on public streets is really dangerous. Anyone get his plates?
Jack ass. He should fire those things on his own property.

A random arson tool.  Start a fire while on the run.

You're a buncha grumpy old men.  cheeky  Stop being so responsible and embrace the fact that he mounted a rocket launcher to his motorcycle.  How is that not the best thing ever (other than the burning down the neighborhood part)?  Besides, as far as I'm concerned, anything that is characterized as a "random arson tool" is just plain AWESOME!!!!

I have to agree completely laughingdp

I can imagine the conversation happening after he's pulled over.

Cop - "I'll need to see your license, registration/proof of insurance. . ."

officer leans back and eyes the launcher

"and your license to deploy ordinance from a moving vehicle."

laughingdp

Id like to see him explain that thing away laughingdp
