I found this amusing because it looks as if there's a giant Cox engine cylinder on the front!

Looks a bit like the fuselage was hacked from a tree trunk!

Yeah it does!

That is one brave feller standing there. Might have been his last photo!

A lot of motorcycle parts were used way back when...

http://http://americanmotorcyclesnorway.blogspot.com/2010/03/what-to-do-with-your-spare-engine.html
Found this cool photo showing a small home built plane motorized by what I think is a IOE Harley engine from late twenties.
I recon this means you can thrust a Harley motor as in a plane you face bigger problems when your engine stops, than if driving down the road on your motorcycle.
