Wow.  First ever motorcycle, first motorcycle accident and first motorcycle fatality.

Nickcalne - That was positively EXCELLENT observation. There are no rational opposing arguments. It REALLY was 1st steamer. Nicely done! TTFN, j

Excellent  8)

I especially like "the exhaust gasses exit through a chimney behind the saddle" who was it on here that was thinking of a heated seat for a Steamer?

And "the water is supplied to the boiler from a tank integrated into the saddle" that one doesn't leave much to the imagination  :shock:  a truly long distance machine!

Although there is no accommodation for the kegs of beer to provide the saddle-integrated water supply. Design failure.

We might all scoff at this 'steamer' but think about it....

This thing runs on charcoal.  

That's kiln dried sticks of wood.  Charcoal is a wholly renewable energy source, and with petrol prices so high that thing is not the past, it's probably the future!   :roll:

Ah the future, I forsee the woodlands of Wiltshire disappearing in a cloud of steam  :lol:
