I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by EZEKWIBE(m): 11:49am On Feb 06, 2009
I made this motorbike [prototype] with my bare hands, and it runs on alternative energy, Is very unfortunate that our local technology has not been receiving the push it deserves, but eventually I know we would get there,  well I won't bore you with all the blah blah. I only have this one question, is it not time we start looking inward?

Why are we still surprised that Africa is backward, you don't expect this kind of reply from sane people, unless of course there is a hidden catch.

@poster
From some statements above nigerians will not appreciate what you have just done.I advice to go to south africa or maybe ghana or any country that is interested in what you have just done to showcase your feat.Forget nigerians.

OMG look who's talking and how he speaks, is pure jealousy or tribalism, I have no time for you, just talk to the hand.
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by Muza(m): 1:02pm On Feb 06, 2009
wait u actually believe that this liar made this picture he copied from a website with his bare hands,or didnt u see bare hands?
how can smone make a bike with his hands.
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by plappville(f): 1:50pm On Feb 06, 2009
It could be that he made it himself, but if he is lying shame to him, I think we should learn how to appreciate our own handmade things, appreciate good things don by others. Even fela kuti don talk say na oyibo thing we dey like, bad habit.

The motor bike was actually made from scrap here and there.

That's really very kind of you, thanks a lot.
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by Kobojunkie: 5:43pm On Feb 06, 2009
@Poster, isn't that a toy in the picture? What alternative energy did you use?
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by Nobody: 5:47pm On Feb 06, 2009
if as the oposter claims he built it 'with his bare hands' i'd expect to see his garage /toolshed in the background.

by the background, the bike looks as if he dragged it to a photo op

anyway tell us what alternative energy your bike is running on

Thank you guys, is not a toy though
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by asha80(m): 5:51pm On Feb 06, 2009
hmmm
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by Kobojunkie: 5:52pm On Feb 06, 2009
It is not a toy? Could you please take a picture of yourself on the bike for us then @Poster. What I see in that picture looks so much like a toy. The wheels also lead me to believe it is. Please prove my doubting mind wrong!
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by mustafar1: 5:55pm On Feb 06, 2009
can you please give some detail into what went into it. if you say u assembled it from scrap. that is like throwing a stone into the darkness. what kinda scrap? did u mean, u melted scrap metal and used the resulting ore to mold the different parts. some have asked wat u mean by alternate energy? is it groundnut oil, used cooking oil, solar, water, wind, hydrogen, oxygen, CO2, nitrogen, i could keep listing the list.

some claim its a toy, some claim its not. simply saying its not a toy doesnt convince my curious mind. i might know someone in the federal ministry of science and technology. that might be my reason for asking.

I'm really, really dissapointed in some Nigerians. Not those doubting him, i'm talking about the ones dumb enough to fall for this hook line and sinker.
Someone produces a bike with clean lines and well sculpted chassis and claims he made it with his bare hands and you fall for that? He talks about alternative energy and you're dumb enough to swallow that when he provides absolutely NO description of his work or any technical detail whatsoever?
he shows a photo with no object conveniently located near it so we can get a sense of the scale and it doesn't ring a bell in your heads?

While the poster should be ashamed of himself, the people that fell for this obvious hoax need to upgrade their glasses and IQ.

This is a very legitimate argument smiley but it depends on the way you look at it,  different people has different level of mental development, so you expect people to evaluate different information their unique way, people look at things from a 3D triangle perspective, is all about which ever  side you are, every piece of technology no matter how sophisticated was achieved by first the creative capability, then the hand to carry it out, there is no magic stick, believe me there is non.
Re: I Made This Motorbike With My Bare Hands by Nobody: 6:16pm On Feb 06, 2009

Even you?
-1000 Respect points for that. Take a look at oyb's photo of that helicopter and see how a handmade project should look like.

You should know by now that money is most often not the reason why people fake such stuff. All the guys who faked fossils were after fame and adulation, not money.

All you have to do is take a photo of yourself beside the bike. If you don't want to do that, then take a photo of the bike beside an object we can use to scale it, such as a tree, a vehicle or another Human being.
Oya, provide more detail about the 'alternative energy'. Many people may be naive enough to believe the bike is the main breakthrough, but it's not. Any ape can build a crude bike. What the world needs is alternative energy sources. So what does this your 'creation' run on?
