Flame-Throwing ‘Secret Agent’ Scooter
A novel but definitely illegal way of deterring rush-hour traffic, this flame-throwing vehicle is a great idea for all you budding DIY secret agents on a budget. **Update** We’ve just learned that this guy has been arrested for ‘possessing an object converted into a firearm.’ Sad day!

The scooter is fitted with a rear-facing nozzle that shoots up to 12ft of flame operated using a button on the handlebar. It would definitely discourage any tailgating, just be sure the wind is blowing in the right direction! Here’s another superb suped-up scooter project.

Interesting interpretation of the firearms law. In the United States we have similar technology for cars. An igniter is placed near the end of the exhaust pipe. If the vehicle has electronic fuel injection a canister of flammable gas has to be added. If it uses a carburetor, the air fuel mix is adjusted to run rich. With either method, a ten foot flame comes out the exhaust. The low riders use flames for street cruises.
