Buddfab: An Express with only 50cc in the Belly

Posted By: Atul Roach | May 26 2008

50cc is hardly any power especially in today’s world where the likes of Buggati and Saab put the very word to shame. Yet, the Buddfab Streamliner is an awesome automobile for it manages to clock speeds above 210 Km/h with only 50cc in its belly. It is a 50cc, two- stroke, single cylinder powered Aprilia RS50 engine that was tuned to superficial limits by taking cues from the likes of AF1 racing and Metrakit which have a heavy repute of giving awesome power to smaller machinery.

The Shell of this unique looking commuter was designed by the famous metal fabricator John Buddenbaum while the brains behind the wheel belong to Eric Noyes, an engineer at NASA's Ames Research Center. World War veterans could recognize it with the era aircraft and rightly so for this streamliner has taken cues from the same machine. Buddfab doesn’t just look unique; it demands the rider to ride it in a position best defined as prone, with his face down and the arms in front.
