57 bcr Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 As a rider of them 2 wheeled machines like you,Paul,I would not appreciate the extensive use of "towel bars" and such as they usually end up on the road and are left there to be propelled by a car or truck in front of you.

Mike Blais Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Seems there was another "Frankentruck" as Tractor of the Month in the early seventies. A cabover Fabco??
