With a bike engine and only one seat, this means you've got no reverse

"With a bike engine and only one seat, this means you've got no reverse"
and if you made it with only 2 wheels........
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

I take it the seats conveniently placed over the petrol tank are for the Wife and Mother-in-law.
Neither of which I have............

That roll bar must be 5' high. You'd have to have a sign on it to keep the kids from swinging on it. Passengers would be well up in the
air as well, it would increase the wind resistance and raise the CoG to a new level.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Good way to get rid of your kids if your were in an accident though...
At the same time- the pelting of insects/stone chips/half bricks would certainly toughen them up a bit!
Not that a half brick is going to do a 2 seater driver much good!
