Ride-on lawnmower attachment for a scooter or motorcycle. The scooter would sit on a platform with the rear wheel powering the mower and the front wheel steering.

       So all the power needed to turn the mower blades and cut the grass will go through the back wheel of your bike driving a friction roller on the platform?

       You're gonna need a lower gear.

       Seems quite a sensible idea to me. Suggested new name: Mowped. Can it not add something like tennis court lines at the same time? Meanwhile, someone wake up goomba from their 20 year sleep.

       I have a proverbial sixpence and doubt if any moped would be able to turn on it, except for one which could be ridden by an ant.

       I have definitely seen (Pop Sci magazine, probably) a ride-on mower that was basically a motorbike with a cutting deck either side. It was particularly good for slopes, as the "bike" could remain vertical while the decks matched the slope.
A quick Google found nothing; I might dig into the Pop Sci archives later.
