    In the 60's there was poster of some guy sitting on a home made motorcycle that was about 12-14 long, he steered it from in the middle, it was a real mixture of all kinds if parts, definetly worth another look!!
    anybody remember it?

    Dunno, but my uncle's Indian Chief had a longer wheelbase than my dad's 67 Datsun pickup.
    I miss those long springer forks, necked hardtail frames, tall king & queen seats, fishtails and spoked wheels.

    Are you thinking of the Norm Grabowski poster?
