I just thought of a hilarious "useless contraption" using a van de graaff generator attached to a bicycle wheel for those times when you're going on the boardwalk ... click a little gear and the bicycle slows down transferring energy to a van de graaff bulb and then simultaneously zaps people who are in your way while you're passing them up ... the closer they are, the bigger the zap :>

What's "useless" about it ? Far, far superior to a bell or a horn ...

Will there be a grown-up version for motorcycles ?

Yes, of course, you can put it on motorcycles, use it against other motorcyclists or also use it against motorcycle cops too. It should have definitely been a feature on Roadrash :>
