Japan Toilet-maker Unveils 'Poop-powered' Motorbike by Nobody: 2:11pm On Aug 25, 2012

Created by Japan's leading toilet makers TOTO, the energy efficient bike certainly meets the motor industry's demand for more climate friendly vehicles.

Talks to turn the ambitious project into reality have been on-going since 2009, with the latest version of the 'Toilet Bike Neo' making its debut at s showroom in Fujisawa, near Tokyo, on Thursday.

The environmentally friendly three-wheel 250cc motorcycle features a specially customised toilet-shaped seat that runs on bio-fuel from the discharge of livestock or waste water.

Despite the eye-catching seat, TOTO is keen to point out that the motorcycle does actually not run on the rider's waste.

'Toilet Bike Neo' does not have the mechanism to run on the rider's waste,' explained the company in a blog post.

'It runs biogas fuel (fertilised, purified and compressed livestock waste and household wastewater) provided by Shika-oi Town in Hokkaido and Kobe city.

'Therefore, the Neo rest seat does not function as a toilet, and has been created for promoting TOTO's environmental efforts.

'TOTO has set up the project to inform everyone about what we have done in the past, and what we will do in the future.'

Really?? You don't say!! shocked, but where in my post did you see me ask about what it runs on?? I simply asked about how a person would feel comfortable pooping in that thing.

All these people making silly jokes, in the past 150 million years, what has your country produced apart from
419 crooks
Elected crooks
Bible crooks and the likes?

Such ignorance is really disgusting, yes more disgusting than the POOP in the Japanese TOTO. With this kind of mentality, its little wonder our campuses have been turned to fellowship/cult centers instead of centers of knowledge....

Even if the refineries don't work it still doesn't change the fact that it is our oil! See now im not going to waste my time and start a stewpid argument about oil production. You should reconsider who the fool is here undecided. STOP IDOLIZING THE ASIANS AND DO SOMETHING TO BETTER YOUR OWN COUNTRY!
