One bike, eight friends

FAISALABAD: Shaikh Heera of Faisalabad couldn’t travel with all of his friends together on his motorcycle. Perturbed, he decided to make a new one himself, one that would accommodate them all comfortably.

Heera, a young man hailing from the Samundari district of Faisalabad, machined a motorcycle which is 11-feet in length and can accommodate up to eight adults or 12 children. Heera said he was inspired to create his modified motorcycle after watching a Bollywood movie, but the motorcycle in the movie could only accommodate four people unlike his 11-feet long monster.

Heera added that it was his dream to build such a vehicle, and expressed pleasure over how he could now travel with all of his friends together.

The motorcycle’s 9-feet long frame was made locally. It has eight shock absorbers to offer a bump free journey for its riders.  It is powered using a double chain. The mechanic who helped modify the motorcycle said that it took him 15 days to complete the task.

Previously, an enthusiast from Gujranwala had created a bike that could seat six adults and 10 children.
