    What is it?

    I posted this in the old photos section but I find that pics can get buried there pretty fast so here it is again. Tom Wilcock sent this pic to me and does anybody have a clue on what it is?

      It is pretty interesting isn't it Tom? I did a search on Koller, which I believe is what I read on the machine. I came up with these results.... http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1P2-6315185.html ....... maybe this bike was one of his inventions? It may be worth further investigation just to confirm or deny........

          Bob are you suggesting a rolling porta pottie? Have you been under the hood of that beast?

              What is it?

              What ever it is, it appears to have a radiator- note the cap. Looks like a cross between a motorcycle and a tractor. I like the steering wheel/handlebars.

                Wow! I think it's cool. Looks like a two-wheeled "cycle car." No doubt a one-off. Name doesn't show up in my card file, but I'm adding it.

                Looks later than teens. Mid-1920s?

                The way modern motorcycle companies are looking for novelty, this design should make a comeback any time now....

                  The sad thing is that it was probably just tossed away when he was done with it. Is the woman sitting in a side car? Sure looks like it to me. I would love to find some more pictures of it. Looks like a clone needs to be made
