as well as annie the dog at the honda cub owners weekend in wales was this, its owner Pete (ironside) uses a pullchord 125 engine out of a honda 3 wheeler,and has adapted it to his liking, its feet forward and goes like stink. He toured Belgium and France on it last year , and led saturdays 120 mile ride .

the writing on the side says ' not eccentric just slightly off center.'

It is a good example of modding to suit the needs with a bit of imagination thrown in. Brilliant!

I remember fitting dustbin fairings in the 60's, what a head scratching problem, trying to get a good strong bracket above the front wheel to hold the considerable weight of the fibreglass shell, and getting good clearance for steering lock at the wheel and handlebars. Having got it fitted, the whole lot would vibrate and bounce around like crazy, so I would would be interested to see how he fixed it. The last one we put on, was on a Royal Enfield Bullet, but a bracket broke descending a hill and the bike got written off.

Fibreglass is really heavy, an aluminium shell would be better.
