Must-do Mods
Wondering who'll be the first to get these done. I'm especially interested in how gaiters and Prince of Darkness turn signals might look....

Can't decide if the first bike is Fred's or Barney's, but it's definitely a Bedrock Special
Is that what passes as road-legal in Alabama?
As for the second one, well I think a highly raked front-end would be as practical on a lawn-mower, as it is on a motorcycle.

You really have to have an iron butt to ride the first one. You sit straight on the wood!

I've changed my mind.
It's not Fred Flintstone's bike (or Barney Rubble's)
It's Jethro Bodine's bike! (Jed Clampetts nephew off the Beverley Hillbilly's)
A Good Ol' Boy's ridge-runner, if ever there was one.
Probably runs on straight Moonshine!

Oh yeah...bugs, splinters, and no chicks...sounds like a good time to me...
the John Deere offering... someone is a candidate for an intervention...not because of design...but because of the chrome...the over-spray on the rear wheels is a desperate cry for help...

I was wondering if the speedo was in knots instead of mph
