They say that the era of gasoline and diesel engines is coming to an end. Like it or not - it's hard to say. In Europe, they plan to abandon the sale of such cars in a few years. This does not threaten Russia in the near future - and that's great. And once gasoline engines on cars were a curiosity. Steam engines ruled the ball. And it is not for nothing that the word "chauffeur" is translated from French as "stoker". Then the drivers had to poke around with a shovel at the firebox.
If many have heard about cars with steam engines, then nothing is known about motorcycles with such an engine. If you imagine a steam engine of the early XNUMXth century, everything will immediately fall into place - it is too big. By the way, there were bicycles with such motors, but experimental ones.
But now, with the development of modern technology and the availability of tools, it is possible to build a steam motorcycle. On an industrial scale, no one will do this, but for the sake of interest and experiment, there will be masters. One of the modern "Lefhanders" was found by the author of the channel "#Wondertechniques with Georgy Belov". He simply took and assembled a multi-fuel steam motorcycle capable of running on any liquid or gaseous fuel, ranging from acetone and “mining”. And you will learn more about the miracle of technology by watching the video.
