Q: Hey, we got two spare Vespa motors, a bunch of old tires, bamboo sticks, and a couple of monkeys. Whatchu wanna do with them?

Indonesians:

@drahardja

That monkey has a nose ring.

I can't figure out who's steering.

@drahardja so Indonesians are the Puerto Ricans of Asia? sorry Filipinos, you lost to your extra extra cousins LMAO
@drahardja The first rule of automotive design is to have fun & be yourself!

@drahardja

Their roads are better than most of the ones in the UK! (Not a pothole in sight.)

@drahardja it’s the couple of monkeys that really drive this home for me. lmao.

@ErickaSimone @drahardja *assumes stuffy, white, Midwestern American accent*

*ahem*

"But what if one of the monkeys had been harmed during the course of this reckless endeavour?"

@drahardja oh I love this one! I just watched a german documentary about this subculture recently! I just checked to look it up but I can't find the name of it off the top of my head. though there are a ton of similar results on youtube for vespa extreme in indonesia
@drahardja this is fucking awesome
@drahardja it's the monkeys that really sell this. 10/10 would ride just for the bragging rights.
@drahardja indonesians will just build a contraption
@drahardja Man, this leaked Mario Kart World DLC is looking wild. Totally justifies the $500 Switch 2 Bundle.
@drahardja the rest of the world is dangerously behind on contraption technology
@drahardja I feel like Bad Piggies music is all that's missing
@drahardja
It's just another loud polluting ... monkeys! 🐒
@drahardja
This post and video alone is enough to justify the creation of the entire internet.
@drahardja
Low-budget reboot of Mad Max!

@drahardja

It's sort of a vertically integrated parade.

@drahardja @Nickiquote Damn these pesky health and safety laws holding us back over here
@davidbcohen @drahardja Do they have insurance tho.

@Nickiquote @drahardja It’ll be really cheap shared amongst all of those drivers.

Reminds me of those works Transit vans that apparently need three people next to each other to drive them.

@drahardja The strain on that single front (and directional) wheel seems like it must be rather terrifying: it seems to be pretty much all that’s stopping the front of this wacky racer from abruptly grounding and face-planting itself! (Looks like there are a couple of wheels on the right but nothing on the left other than the more central driving wheels) 😱

But I love that one of the monkeys is clearly loving this to bits, though! 😆

@drahardja

This is how you roll up to intimidate the other teams at the robotics meet.

@drahardja There also seems to be a dog on the platform. Not sure of the dog is having as much fun as they monkeys though.
@drahardja the monkeys are the cherry on top
@drahardja omg I love seeing those modded vespas, sometimes they'd just strap the most random thing on it 
@drahardja Heh vehicule modding goes brrrr

I love it when people do this kind of stuff
@drahardja
Fantastic! So ingenious & inventive & your caption is perfect!! I have watched several times & it really cheers me up! Sending it on now…
@drahardja why isn’t there a movie about these epic dudes and their monkeys?
@drahardja This has WH40k Ork energy all over it, I approve!
