Headlight fluid?

Actually some older (really older) bikes DO need headlight fluid.

Water was needed to mix with the calcium carbide to form acetylene gas for the acetylene head light.

Who's laughing now?

Time-travelling motorcyclists? Or possibly undead motorcyclists, if they were buried with their now-super vintage bikes. Either possibility is disconcerting.

Imagine being stuck by the side of the road because the wick in your headlight's gone out ?
