Not really, Have a look at a Windermere Kettle, designed to fit on the exhaust pipe to heat up water for Tea, works really well, bit old fashioned now as it was first made in the early 1800's. Funny how the good ideas all reappear at some time. Cant wait for steam to come back!!!!!!!

Tim,

A Windermere kettle would be rather cumbersome for a trail bike's exhaust, methinks! confuse biggrin confuse biggrin

Oh what a joyous piece of engineering, Mr Honda, Yamaha, KTM etc eat your heart out, As you say Martyn a bit cumbersome in its original form, but I am sure it could be made trail bike friendly. It just shows that the idea of heating foodstuffs from your engine goes back an awful long way. From railway fireman cooking bacon and eggs on the stoking shovel, to the most expensive I ever saw was a hot plate made to fit on the exhaust pipe of a Wessex helicopter. No doubt some Ex RAF or RN FAA may have photos. I think at the time it cost about 2 grand to fry an egg!
