I had a single version in my '61 Renault Dauphine with a small
electric pump for the air. I used to see how high I could get
pedestrians to jump ;-)

And when the engine breaks, you can retro rocket all the way back home.

He said it was a Renault - the wheels fall off those not the engine breaks,
or if its an ambulance it might catch fire!

With the more recent models - the hood catch lets go at speed so the hood
slams back and smashes the windscreen!

Not if you maintain the leather straps. (No kidding, leather straps
to keep the swing axles from tucking in too much, though I did do a
few horizontal-movement lane changes before I caught on ;-)

I had the same on a Honda CL450; I used it to make drivers notice that
I was there, until one late night in downtown Cleveland, when the
driver I had alarmed decided to make something of it. Fortunately, the
bike was faster and more maneuverable than the car, and I escaped.

"downtown Cleveland"?? It's a wonder you weren't shot.
