Let's play, WTF is that?!
« on: October 24, 2010, 05:30:34 AM »
   Why not have one, on-going thread about obscure, weird and/or rare bikes? Keep 'em all in one place.

 I'll start. Spotted in the swap meet at the Barber Vintage Festival. Wicked cool! I must admit: I have NO CLUE what it is!

You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

Aside from the helmet thing and the maintenance issues and poor maneuverability, I think that actually looks pretty cool.  Pretty comfortable too.

Your picture is titled "Sears"  ;)
 I'll guess that it's a Sears and Roebuck.

Your partially right, they were sold through Sears, but were manufactured in France.
It is a 106cc single cylinder 4 stroke.
Anyone know the manufacturer?
