Yesterday i was taking apart a frame that had a different angle to it and thought,what it would look like inverted. So i took it apart and turned it upside down. That started a little adrenaline going to back when i was a kid about 55 years ago.
I seen a picture in Popular Machines mag. and just had to build one..........Curt

The bar for the gravity feed gas tank is more level. I went with no pedals, just foot pegs on my motor (bike not). Drop outs have me concerned though as I'm off-roading legal in the elements and occasional bottoming my shocks on the front. No rear shock, just a good padded seat. I suppose I could make the frame use those safety clips on the drop outs, or mod the drop out, or eliminate dropout and always have to feed the axle through, but that's a hassle.
