I dunno, but it needs a lancer’s perch on the back and a War Boy driving it.

I’m not Australian enough to understand this yet but you’ve earned my upvote, sir/ma’am/whatever you identify as


MaryN6FBB110117

May I suggest you immediately go and watch that pinnacle of Australian filmmaking, Mad Max: Fury Road? Well, if you want to be a real Aussie you should watch them all. But the War Boys are from the last two:)


swiptheflitch

I have watched them all haha! Even the OG one with Mel Gibson. I guess I should rewatch it then and pay closer attention 😅


ckhumanck

the best is the 2nd in the original Mel Gibson series (Road Warrior) - it's so bizarrely masculine and unbelievably camp. And just huge fun on top of the style of it all.


RecordingGreen7750

Wasn’t the last one a complete and utter flop? I didn’t mind fury road but I feel like the originals are better even though they are much much older


antique_sprinkler

The pinnacle of Aussie movies? I think you mean The Castle


ckhumanck

can't stand the castle and "Australiana" in general.


ckhumanck

The Pinacle of mad max is definitely road warrior


SlamTheBiscuit

Looks like a custom built trike with a holden engine


cheekybeakykiwi

from the rego its a 1.8 L *F18D engine* from a holden cruze.


WAPWAN

It also has 1.8 on the rear fenders. I bet a tiny thing like that rips with a 1.8L motor


Total_Philosopher_89

Year 2021 Make CAM TRIKES RVCS APPROVAL 46330 Body type TRICAR They are usually based on VW bugs. Not sure what's going on here.


Beefwhistle007

some dude being rad having a great time


swiptheflitch

Being as cold as it was this morning, I hope he had more layers on than an onion


TheRainMan101

Probably has heated grips or seat


MLiOne

And heated vest.


basetornado

Couple of options. Either they used to have a HSV and that was the plate and they just kept it and transferred it etc, or the engine in that thing is originally from a Holden, plus they transferred a plate.


Putrid_Department_17

I think that might be the Batmobile


mrdoredumble

Mad max vibes


swiptheflitch

Exactly what I thought. I saw a pretty ritzed out TransAm the other day which looked like it came straight out of that universe


Namerunaunyaroo

Trikes are something I just don’t get. It’s taking a motorcycle and throwing away the best bit (being able to cut turns with a high power to weight) and keeping the worst (being stuck out in the elements). Or like taking a car , giving it crap handing and removing the cabin.


Antique_Tone3719

They're popular with people with injuries that preclude riding a normal bike


yrzero

The feeling of the wind in your hair, etc. It’s recapturing the feeling for older or disabled riders, as they don’t have to keep the bike upright. A pretty relaxing and pleasant way to tour the country


RecordingGreen7750

Well obviously it’s his HSV


Prudent-Economics794

It's looks like a hot wheels car


Vegetable-Window-629

It's Australia preparing for Mad Max to come true!


Bastard_of_Brunswick

Is that the blue motortricycle I used to see out Bundoora way years ago?


Life-Ad4024

Not an HSV


Wooden-Trouble1724

Obviously his HSV 3 🙄


antique_sprinkler

That's on wellington road yeah? South bound?


yrzero

At the intersection of Nantilla rd


thekeelhaul

A really expensive coffee machine.


oripash

With a throne. And on wheels.


CoachFinal7641

HSV 3


Greedy_Lake_2224

Is anyone else getting Girl from Tomorrow vibes?


hapablapppp

Batman


Guzkull

Ur looking at a flog


Addictd2Justice

It’s a couch on wheels. He set up a man cave in his garage and his wife gave him shit about the fact he was always watching sport and would never leave if he had a choice. To piss her off he turned his bike into a giant arm chair so he literally never needs to leave the garage.


UberDooberRuby

A boomer with more money than sense?


Beefwhistle007

Damn man how could you see this and your first reaction is to talk shit on him? I don't even like cars but that thing looks fun.


UberDooberRuby

Each to their own lol


swiptheflitch

I think you mean ‘to each their own’ lol


UberDooberRuby

Nope. I mean what I said.
