Kudos man,......like the way you came thru......... :2thumbs: ....... Probably the canvas cover idea would create much unwanted flap if it wasn't just right and trampoline tight...........and so begins the saga GYROMAN...................How will he escape the cunning and ultrasonic pursuits of.........TRIKEVADER!!!!!!!!............(tune in next time and get the secret word)..

Where will Gyroman appear next ??........Will his grime-fighting powers be ZAPPED by the stealth and blinding speed of TRIKEVADER ??........Word on the street is that Gyroman has taken on a sidekick......Is there any doubt that Gyroman needs assistance with the endless duties of maintaining such an awesome fleet of super-hero transports ??........Tune in next week and meet the little buddy that will shadow Gyroman in all his adventures.......Rumor has it this devoted tag-along is called--PIVOTBOY.......Don't miss the continuing saga of Gyroman and Pivotboy,.......brought to you by *.......This weeks SECRET WORD----MAROON....................... :hi:

OK Motor Mike here is my top secret Gyro rear end .It is still in the testing stage but I am thinking I should get a extra 28 MPG and hope to increase my top end to 66 MPH .
I think the Bondo is the problem .... Gaffer Tape just will not stick to it ... So how else will I attach it to the frame ?
I tried to gaffer tape it to the tires but as I would drive away the tape would rip as the tires turned .
Any Ideas ?
And please do not say wind tunnel testing .... If you look in the first photo you will see to the right ( wind tunnel ) ,I have been doing weeks of testing thats why I have rounded the top secret fender I tried flat but it seems to actually slow the bike down .

Well Brad it is in New Zealand and with the exchange rate your looking at around $800.00 bucks American
but it as been for sale for a few weeks so he would probably take 5 or $600.00
Shipping ??? Wild guess $1,500.00 give or take a grand .
