See the potential? I did.

What? Clearly you haven't been to Thailand. You can carry a family of 4 or a grand piano on one of these:lol:

It's mounted on the back of my 4x4 so all up I have a 5x6. Reason for this bike is I can't carry a full size dirt bike on my 4x4 or I'd have to trailer it. This 70kg peewee bike is a good fit.

No motorcycle license required
has both electric and back up kick start
twist and go
fuel consumption 2.35l/100km
honda reliability
will carry full carton of beer

Here's mine..

and a few mods I made for the outback.

large rear rack and 54l storage tub
15l under seat storage
4" lift kit
replaced center stand with side stand
run flat A/T tires. No more punctures
snorkel kit for dust and extreme river crossings ;)

I carry 5l of water under the seat + a 3l Camelbak/backpack
All prospecting equipment fits in the rear box and a few heavies go under the seat
Basically if you can haul your kit with difficulty on your back you can easily store it on this bike.
Gives a range of around 450km on road and 350+ bush bashing
Have a couple thousand km's in this configuration and it's holding together well.. so far
 
look where his knees would be Jaros...there is a little tube and air filter behind the leg guard.

Looks like a sweet little setup and the mods sound like the right way to go. Got any pics of it in action in the bush??

Cheers
 
Sign me up.... wait what's top speed? I do close to 1000 km a week mostly commute.
 
Pretty awesome little setup there, I see the potential in it for sure.
Really like the mod's as they're well though over, especially the tyres and snorkel.
Well done.
