If I recall, this was built by a chainsaw manufacturer to highlight their 2-stroke engines.

Where does the gas go?
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Of course it's not functional, never was intended to be. As the write-up on the site says, "Don't look at it as a bike, look at it as a pure feat of engineering". Wacky stuff like that is fun to marvel at but that's about it.
