    Question Strangest thing strapped to a bike

    OK...what's the strangest thing you have seen strapped to the back of a bike?

    There was a bike (nice BMW) in the bike parking area at work yesterday with a big ol' chainsaw strapped to the back. It would have been a great bike for a Mad Max movie. Granted, I do work in Maine, but it was still pretty friggin funny to see.

    the only reason you haven't seen a chain saw strapped to the back of my SV is because I was in the woods using it when you stuck your business card on my bike


    I would say the strangest thing I have had strapped to my SV is a slab of granite (burnout board surface)

    Strangest thing strapped to a bike

    YSR50 strapped to the passenger seat of a 1500 Wing on the way up to Laconia Bike Week back in 1994.

    Another odd one was a full dress Harley towing a 10 ft. Aluminum boat on the Mass Pike.

    Haha Rob, I know that gas station. Look at the handwarmers on that thing.

    About the strangest thing I've personally had is a 4ft length of 3/4" square aluminum tubing. I bent it in half, and tucked it sticking backwards out from under my tailbag.

    These were taken in late august of 05 in Sebago ME. That is a big harley towing a crate with a dog in it. Sorry you can't see the bike but take my word for it - I was trying to drive and take the photo at the same time.

    Rob rode down to Manchester with a tire around his waist. Other than that, I haven't seen too much random stuff strapped to a bike.

    I remember that day

    There was a guy on the pocketbike forum that made a rack for his sportbike to carry the pocketbike on the back, I'll have to see if I can dig up the picture

    Strangest thing strapped to a bike

    I used to see a guy strap all his hockey gear and sticks to the bike to go to pulic stick time in Westboro.

    Oddest thing I have had on the back of my bike was my hockey scates strapped going to get them sharpened. One time I took a set of tires and made a small stand in order to tie then to the back of my yzf600 a few years ago. I got a few odd looks from people.

    That's a riot...I forgot all about that. That was last fall, up beind Sherry Barsanti's Self Storage area. So you actually found the card, huh ?

    So, do you have a bracket to hold your transit on the back of your SV also ?
