I'd like to see what an expert trials rider could do with that rig over

Like stopping half way through a section, selecting neutral, extricating
a pack of cigarettes from his back pocket and lighting up. All without a
dab.

it isn't a motorcycle..,it 's either a weird quad <spits> or a naked
car. Looks as ugly as home made trailer park sin to me either way.

Better wear a full coverage helmet to keep from getting a rock in the back
of your head. No fenders on the rear wheels???

Made me remember this and its offspring.

Found one moldering in a chicken coop back around 1975 in
Cape Town when visiting a friend and going to see what it
was he found in the classifieds. He didn't buy it as it
looked like too much work. I guess he's sorry now!

I studied the photos on the same web sight and only saw fenders on the
front wheels... unless you call that thing sticking out behind the
seat a "fender". The two small fenders you see over the wheels are in
fact the front wheels.

I'm still confused
