Don't know of anyone has seen this before:

Had a chuckle, but a good bit of imagineering involved. It's about halfway down the page, any ideas Blinky? :smt002

Ape rack eh.. Seeing as the wife's name is April, I'm sure she'll be thrilled to learn that there is a racking system that'll allow her to be bolted to the back of the bike. :smt003
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

I think it possibly should have read screwed on the back of the bike rather than bolted.
Well Pete was a bit slow tonight!
Sorry!

I like the bike idea.... Although the falco will carry a lot more. I was contemplating taking tims mille down to Mallory for him to collect. It seems my logistical problem has just been solved :smt112
