Biker's Barber Shop

Cut and dried.

Some barber's shops have special chairs for kids that look like small motorcycles.

In this establishment, all the barber's chairs are real, fully operational motorcycles. For height adjustment, they are supported on hydraulic lifts.

For unisex establishments, couples may elect to have simultaneous haircuts, one patron on the rider's seat and the other on the pillion.

The kid's seats are real mini-motos.

All the "chairs" are for sale and test rides can be arranged.

       Clippers powered by flexible shaft driven from roller against the rear wheel.

       Hmmm, just thinking about on the hair clippings on the floor mixed with all the oil that has leaked from the HDs.

       Hey now, [AusCan]. 95% of Harleys ever built are still out on the road.   

       The rest of them made it back home.

       woo-hoo yes [+] loud and rumbly!

       [+] Great idea, but I'd hate to be the guy sitting in the second row [pillion] seat while the driver is getting his hair cut.

       Do bikers have haircuts?
MaxwellBuchanan, Jul 22 2012
  

       I thought this was an idea about actual bikers getting haircuts when they ride in with helmet hair. Maybe have open parking spaces so patrons can sit on their own bike for the haircut
evilpenguin, Jul 23 2012
  

       That's good. Yes. But not "open"; just a narrow garage-style door.   

       Perhaps best to have a waiting area that's an enclosed bike park. Chat with other patrons and look at bikes, perhaps partake of a beverage. When your turn comes, sit on one of the "house" bikes, or ride your own in.

       If the place employed both barbers and mechanics, it would be perfect for me: I'd only have to make one trip for my annual haircut and motorcycle inspection.

       Nothing better than the smell of fresh-clipped hair on a hot hog exhaust in the morning...?   

       I keep wondering how the stylist is going to ensure a nice straight neckline cut when he/she has to work around and over the rear wheel.

       That's what the pillion seat is for.
Jscotty, Jul 26 2012
  

       For extra pay, you can have the haircut while riding.
