"Useless as an ashtray on a motorbike" = vô dụng như cái gạt tàn trên xe máy -> nghĩa là hoàn toàn không cần thiết, không có hiệu quả, vô dụng. 

Ví dụ

The new rule is as useless as an ashtray on a motorbike, unless you give the cops the power to break up the wretched (khốn khổ) ­parties wherever they occur (xảy ra).

Back then I had one pair of glasses for reading - now eight pair are strategically (có chiến thuật) positioned in various locations in and around the house. I also have two pair in my golf bag and two in the car. In short, without my glasses I am as useless as an ashtray on a motorbike. I can't read a thing.

I tried to contact them on numerous times without reply, the term useless as an ashtray on a motorbike sums it up (kết luận) perfectly.
