Okay, I confess I have had a few motorbikes, yep another Belletier is into the two wheeler's.
Though I don't have a motorized one at the moment, I do have this that I built a year or two ago.
Another is being researched currently.
Cheers
Rob

OMG
I had one of those in the seventies, oops.
Present from my grandmother no less.
Errmmm ... how do I say it politely, no I will not build one of those.
Next project is a boardtrack racer lookalike, if I don't get sidetracked with the trike !
Cheers

Here's the latest creation from the Cannon Cycle Works.
This used to be a old fat tube road bike with solid front forks and curved handlebars
