While the trek to dispose of the bodies garbage is long, at least the neighbors won’t complain about the smell. – Ms. Fix-It

Look closely at the side of the trash can, it’s full of speakers. I bet’cha that green ammo can has a radio in it as well.
Definitely an awesome kludge, also look at the milk jug hand guards
Agree. WANT
is it just me or does it look like the trash cans have been modified to look cinda like speakers??
kludging luggage(sic) for adventure touring has been around forever. this is a bit extreme by most standards, though. the plastic jug handguards complete the ensemble. I’ve done that myself, and they work well. WIN!
p.s. i’ll venture to guess this photo was taken at the “elefantentreffen”, a mid-winter camping rally in Germany. Google it for similar photos
The recession has even hit the garbage collectors!
Field dressing FTW.
Well, the snow on the ground certainly explains the gallon milk jug protective covers for the rider’s hands. The mailbox seems to serve as a saddle bag of sorts to carry various odds and ends. But both of these additions to the bike are eclipsed by what has GOT to be the largest pair of aftermarket motorcycle speakers in existence!!
wow, good eye to spot what look like speakers in the trash cans. i missed that. the “mailbox” is a military surplus ammo box. there’s most likely one on the other side as well, mounted with just enough clearance for the front wheel to be turned.
They’re not speakers, they’re drum heads.
Or something.
well they does say suzuki is a piece of junk but collecting it the next hill to climb. What no recycling to day honey
To be completely honest, first time I saw it I thought the rider was afraid of falling due to the snow and thought of adding some “side protectors” in case of falling….
The hill billy mini van–now with sidecars for the kids!
How to make sure your teenage son /does/ take out the garbage!
I like the ammo box, but where’s the minigun?
Mobile home of the future! (close to) no rent required, packs up in minutes, is very light.. Comes with very own mailbox, and massive speakers that double as garbage bins and triple as side cases! Call now, and we’ll include the plastihippogloves for free!!
That bike is trashed!
Zing!
Is it just me or are the garbage cans resting on the swingarm? That could prove problematic…
For the last ten years I’ve gone on fishing pilgrimages more than eight hours away, in a conventional four-wheeled vehicle. If I only had a bike, this is a setup I’d seriously consider. If nothing else, the garbage bins MIGHT JUST be large enough to bring back the frozen haul, as long as the bins were lined with styrofoam first.
Just like the occasional expedition to bring left-back waste down from Mount Everest (discarded food containers, dead alpinists, empty oxygen bottles), this rider has taken it upon him to clean up after the Kristallrallye.
Garbage trucks used to come down our street, then the company made a stupid excuse and stopped. We have to take the garbage to the end of the street. The people who live furthest up have worked out a way to hook their garbage can to their ATV and drag it down the street on garbage day.
I live at the front of the street. I hear EVERYBODY dragging their garbage cans by, the faster they go the louder the noise. Sigh.
Also notice the relocated turn signals to the top corners of the trashcan lids!
