What is the catch here? Apart from it being BS?

Well, it's Brazil, so the bike probably runs on ethanol in the first place. So drinking it isn't exactly proof that it's water. There's a camera cut at about 1:03, between pouring in the dirty-looking alleged river water or maybe dirty alcohol, and driving away. He probably swapped out the fuel tank at that point.What is the catch here? Apart from it being BS?
Trying to guess how a magician does his tricks is pretty useless.
The best we can do is think of ways we would do the same trick. A few of the ways I would do it:
1. The little water tank would just be a dummy and the engine would burn gas from the regular tank.
2. If I wanted to run on the hydrogen from the water then I would use a battery to break the water down through electrolysis then burn the hydrogen. But then it would be more efficient to replace the engine with an electric motor and use the electric power from the battery directly to drive the bike.
3. As Bomb#20 says, I could just pretend that ethanol was water for the camera and run the bike on ethanol.

Nothing new...This existed in the 1950's already...Shame the oil industry never allowed this invention to flourish..
his is old technology from the 1950's however was never allowed to be released thanks to the oil giants that want to sell their gasoline...there's MANY methods of FREE energy, unfortunately we are in a oppressed society
The only thing you're proving is just how indoctrinated you are. This wouldn't be the first time, nor the last, we had to rewrite physics...
it is possible to use resonant electricity... Once the electricity matches the natural resource of H2O, its easy to split it.. try it
hope the oil industries dont find him
+Lucky Silver I was just thinking that!
+Lucky Silver yeah..they will kill him like Stanley Meyer...
Well, they can use some sodium metal plus water to produce hydrogen from water so what they say can be technically true but I doubt it.
They run on ordinary fuel and water there is just dead weight.
Yes, but I know a guy who invested in this type of "water" engine.Well, they can use some sodium metal plus water to produce hydrogen from water so what they say can be technically true but I doubt it.

Yeah; but that would be a metallic sodium fuelled bike, not a water fuelled bike. Unless you are going to call an ordinary car 'air fuelled'.
High school chemistry.
Combining hydrogen and oxygen to form water produces energy. Cracking water back to its components takes energy.
You can run a vehicle by burning hydrogen, producing water. Going the other way -- you'd have to add energy to the system.
Thank you,The guy claims it runs on hydrogen from the water, so there is an electrolysis process, if he can be trusted. This would require a very robust on board electrical system to break H2O into H2 and O2.
When I was 12, I entered an electrolysis based hydrogen and oxygen generator into a science fair. My generator was powered by 2 D-cell batteries and was able to produce about 10 cc's of hydrogen in about 24 hours. I'm not sure how this would scale up, but a I can't imagine being able to carry enough batteries to produce enough hydrogen to fuel a motorcycle, and still keep air in the rear tire.
This is one of those scams that takes a well known technology and makes claims that require a rewriting of the laws of physics and chemistry.
I twisted my ankle badly doing that, once. Can't say I recommend it.High school chemistry.

But what if they reverse the polarity of the hyperdimensional Eigencoil?
I am often asked by biology students why they must take so many physics courses. I answer by pointing out that they are working on a bachelor of science degree, but on top of that they should understand enough physics that the chemistry and biology courses they take will make sense. In a broader sense, a basic understanding of physics is pretty important to understanding the universe that we are trying to live in.If the claim is that it runs on hydrogen electrolysed from water, then water isn't the fuel, it's just a very inefficient step in the drivetrain.
Leaving the questions:
What is the actual power source, used to drive the electrolysis? and
Why bother with the water, when modern electric motors are cheap, lightweight and efficient?
This sort of nonsense is useful only as a demonstration of why a basic education that includes some simple physics - such as the laws of thermodynamics - is so important, even for people who plan never to work in STEM fields. Not knowing basic physics leaves people vulnerable to fraud.
Or you could just listen to that song by Rush, "You can't get something for nothing..." That'd save you from having to take thermodynamics.I am often asked by biology students why they must take so many physics courses.
