I think you have your left and right mixed up

No - I'm VERY right of Atilla the Hun, so to me, he is a liberal softy...

It was obviously a poor attempt at humour...

Thanks - but if I have to explain something, I think I failed...

I'm sure you will, but you may just have to swap your bike for a cruser to help the arthritic back. Either that or put apehangers on your R1

(sorry, that will mean absolutely nothing to car drivers)

I'm going to convert it to a trike and register it as a disabled carriage

I've never understood the trike thing; they look cool but you can't filter and you get cold and wet - in other words, all the disadvantages of a car and bike rolled into one.

I'm not sure an R1 engine would have the umph to pull a trike properly. Isn't maximum power somewhere up about at 28000 rpm?

The drivers/riders of trikes always look like they've got a face made of leather and a long grey beard. I hope you're not there yet?

An R1 engine in this would go well

Surely one of the major markets for trikes is ex-bikers who have been left disabled following serious accidents.

Well, yes and no really. I meet many guys with trikes but I only know of one person who uses one out of necessity, for his wife who's living with MS

But I'm sure you're right that many do for the reason you said and good on them I say.
