Two motorcyclists found an ingenious way of riding through flooded roads with wacky customised bikes.<br /><br />Ikram Shahidi Mat Kail, 24, and his brother, Muhammad Zakaria, 22, altered their bikes after rainwater covered paths in Terengganu, Malaysia, on December 3.<br /><br />They used plastic bottles suspended from metal poles as fuel tanks, while the exhausts were extended and pointed up to prevent them from being clogged with water.<br /><br />Ikram Shahidi said it only took them two hours to finish renovating the Honda C70 and Modenas Kriss 110 motorcycles that they own.<br /><br />He said: ''We tried doing this last year but it failed. The motorcycle died in the water. We improved the model of the previous one and during the test drive, it worked perfectly."<br /><br />The two brothers work as a mechanics at a workshop while also working part-time as fishermen.<br /><br />The older brother said he wants to get a formal education with his brother so they can improve their amphibious motorcycles.<br /><br />He said: "They can be useful because our region is often flooded. We can also help bring villagers to safety.''<br /><br />Last week, Terengganu and nearby provinces were submerged with multiple waves of flooding due to heavy rainfall that caused the region's river to burst its banks.
