Citroen 2cv powered bikes

Spanish technology...

Notice the gear shift position!

Provided the 2cv was the car that leant like a bike but in the opposite
direction, how do these things go round corners?

 

I see that Citroen engined bikes are as ugly as Citroen cages.

 

If MZ made cruisers, this is what I'd imagine they'd all look like.

 

The first and third pictures are, erm, interesting, but no.2 is fucking
hideous.

And the big pool of stuff under the 3rd one.

With a wheelbase like that? Probably badly.

 

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "Domènec"

Nice little thing...

Holy fugly.

They all seem to have missed the point somewhat; instead of the
athsmatic gutless two-pot engine, the Cit GS lump would have fitted fine
in there.

Many moons ago I recall seeing (in Which Bike? - the Mark Williams one)
a French bike that has the GSA (1300 vice 1220 GS) lump fitted. The
fairing looked a bit angular, though not compared to a XJ650 Turbo.

And of course there was the Amazonas...

 

That's the one!

I want the BX19 engined one

Why the homo-erotic pop video photo?

 

Well, I quite fancy the one in the middle wot looks like a grumpy, dog-faced
version of Keifer Sutherland. Although I'd swap him for the bike on the
left if I could have it with a less crap tank.

 

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the

I rather like that; quite neatly done, Guzzi gearbox probably.

And then he had to spoil it all by putting something stupid like a chair
on it.

Pure ratistry.

May be not... as far as I can remember, in southern France there is a
category of kartcross where they run 2cv powered karts, it is somewhere
between the 500/2 and 600/4 bike powered karts. And they're fast (the kart
doesn't weight much)
