Wood Powered Motorcycle

From time to time, we stumbled upon a technology that we all sort of forgotten about. Take as an example this specific Ural motorcycle, which is powered by a substance known as wood gas. Wood gas will be the side product of partial combustion of carbon products such as wood. The gas passes through a process known as gasification in a wood-gas generator to provide combustible hydrogen and carbon monoxide. That means you're burning up wood to generate fuel. Top speed of this motorcycle is approximately 50 miles per hour, while it burns a sack of wood for 60 miles.
