Near the end of this thead are some pictures of a Flexit sidecar on an ST11. This was mentioned over the weekend, so this is what it looks like

Evenin' Saaz...
...do you remember or meet Peter Holt from the old Ozstoc site? Well he fitted a 'Flexit' chair to his 1100 back in the late 90's after his Wife had a bad accident and still wanted to have that 'motorcycle' experience. He did a wonderful job fitting it, and it too was candy apple red...he'd fitted additional lights and intercom for Fiona...she loved it...remember seeing a jumper she'd been knitting as they travelled along...I followed him on one occasion and it really looked fun but I haven't seen him for some years now, pity.
When I get time I'll rummage through the old rally pics, I know I took a few pics of it.
Ciao, the can :)

John...
Saw your comment re the LED's in the tail lamp...Laurie and Baz said the same when I ask them too.
The object was to make the back end more visible...dunno about you, but I find following 1100's it's hard to pick up indicator lamps from any reasonable distance back...so with this in mind I put clear LED's in the rear indicators only and red LED's in the tail / brake lamps thinking that red would defuse more...I was apparently wrong.
Mind you, I am not sure that you can get offset twin connection LED's...which in all likelihood would exacerbate the problem :think1
...and I thought you tucked in behind me coz of the great lines I was taking too :crackup
Cheers Dick :)

Dick, I agree that the rear lights could do with a bit more visability. I may look around for some standard bulbs that are a bit brighter..or perhaps clean the lense :rofl
