It is an invention that its author guarantees to be the first in the world. A motorcycle that runs on beer, and that, far from seeming like a joke, is capable of reaching 240 km/h. The first video that exists of the motorcycle leaves no doubt about the particular and bizarre nature of the creation.
Unusual, quaint, strange, to define a motorcycle that runs on beer is something that has never been seen before. Its author is Ky Michaelson, who already has a certain history in this difficult-to-categorize inventions. One of his latest works is a rocket-propelled toilet (hence his nickname, ‘rocket man’), or a water-jet-propelled coffee maker. A lot of free time and desire to enter the Guinness book of records.
how the bike works
A Minnesota man invented a motorcycle that runs on beer, surprising everyone with his incredible creation that continues to rack up views on his YouTube post, where it already has 2.5 million.
This innovation works with a 50 liter barrel instead of gasoline. The video is a few months old now, but it’s still making the rounds online as Ky and his son Buddy demonstrate how beer enters the keg-turned-fuel tank and heats up to over 300 degrees Fahrenheit. The steam creates enough momentum to move the motorcycle forward.
Although he used an Oregon brand of beer in the demo, Buddy assured that any brand of drink could power the motorcycle.
Ky Michaelson is considered a “genius” who is characterized by his creativity and by doing things that no one else has done in the past. This is his latest creation, and he continues to give the world something to talk about.
