That's probably a pretty cheap bike
I hope when I'm too old or beat up to ride that I've got the cash to make that

Thumbs way up! Great to see the many ways guys manage to stay in the wind.

When my buddy was 19 (about 1988), he was in a motorcycle accident and paralyzed from the waist down. In about 2000 we went to work on a bike for him. Started with a new Gixxer 1000 (I know I know). Added electric shifter, made a set of "training wheels" located on the back axle. Used a hydraulic motor from a Chrysler Sebring convertible top, and fabricated a cam system to make for rapid "up and downs" .
Wish I still had the pics of him riding around the parking lots trying it out with his legs ratchet strapped together hahaha.

Necessity is the mother of invention. I'd raise my glass to that person who would not allow anything to stand in their way of gettin in the wind.
