    Default Bummer..!!

    had I had cell phone camera growing up in Peru could have given you a ton to more. They had categories...

    1.Scooters..(Vespa, Lambretta) used for news paper delivery. Stack them from deck to nose and use only front brake.
    2. Harley's Indians..remove front wheel install bed with two wheels and deliver cooking kerosene
    3. BSA, BMW, Triumph etc same bed for fish, veggie deliveries and sale at markets
    4. All small cc bikes used for messenger service.

    But the rest loaded them to the max to move anything. Cars were to expensive gasoline as well so fewer trips was a plan...

    If those fools ever get there hands on a Spyder, they'll think they have a 18 wheeled semi.

    When I went to Philippines to visit with my gf and her family, we usually used the sidecar taxis to get around where she lived, which was in Angeles city, they made for ridiculously cheap transportation for about 25-50 peso($.25-$.50), if you didn't mind the smog during certain times of the day, it wasn't uncommon to see some of these machines loaded down with 3-4 people. Considering the engines were only 155cc Hondas, they seem like tough little motors!

    In Korea one would see bicycles made with 2 inch steel pipe frame carrying two 100 pound LP tanks on the back end. I stayed AWAY from them!!! They had some with an "A" frame up the back with all kinds of merchandise and wood. I wondered how they kept them(either motor or bicycle)upright. Talk about EXCESSIVE overloading!!!

    It's real. The guy just has more money than brains. It popped up a couple years ago on a Harley forum I watch.

    OMG

    If they can get 7 people on a small 2 wheeler like that, I wonder how many people they could get on a spyder
    The kid in the bucket is just too funny!
