You could try bolting one of these:




onto one of these:

Lee Valley Tools - Woodworking Newsletter Vol. 2, Issue 2


or even this:

The week in pictures: 22 April 2011 - Telegraph

Afterall, you can travel around on everything from two feet, to two wheels no engine, to two wheels plus engine.
So this arrangement should fit in there somewhere, and be a 'First Ever' for someone to try!!??


Sorry also :offtopic:

As a reply to Colbach on the short thing , im 5'4" and have a f650gs fl model its perfect for me , I can touch the floor with both feet flat the weight is low down thanks to the location of the fuel tank. I have ridden it off road through rivers and it coped no problem. I think weight is the biggest thing when looking at a bike and mpg I get 80 mpg from my bike and it cruises at 70-80 mph with ease for me its nearly the perfect bike and this from someone who swore never to buy a beemer ....

oh and if you need a mechanic on your trip I'd be happy to help lol
