    I can't picture the end product.

    Just doesn't look like it would be comfortable to me. I can't figure out what it would look like completed.

    I had to turn my head to look at it.

    Is that a back rest or ironing board?

    Yeah I can't picture the end either, looks like the forks will be way out there.

      No, silly. It's a Craftmatic adjustable bed.
      Ich habe dich nicht gefragt.

                Here is a "trike", the homemade steering looks like it would be a little awkward to turn.

                              Holy Smokes! That has to be the best looking XS650 Chopper I've ever seen.Amazing how these bikes are so popular to convert into choppers.I first learned to ride on a Yamaha XS650 Heritage...back in the mid 70s'
