Had a fantastic day at Road America for the Rockerbox Motofest event. It was a great time and was able to see all the vintage race bikes. I surely will make it next year. I have about 2000 trouble free miles on it now. I average about 50 MPG but am on the throttle quite a bit. The trailer works great when I go a long distance to a show. Hope everyone is doing well.

Whatever happened to the Rayvolution? Same sort of concept as the (hideous) Gaiai Deltoid - remove the headstock and forks froma a superbike and bolt on a cockpit subframe and two wheels at the front.
Interest was piqued by a completed Rayvolution currently for sale on ebay albeit at a totally unrealistic price.
Nice looking piece of kit

It might. Not fo me. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CARVER-ONE-Its-a-LHD-RHD...
I still find the classic twin front wheel, trailing rear wheel set ups by far the best handling, most forgiving, entirely predicatble layouts and therefore by far the safest and the least demanding.
The Berekely still rules IMO especially if tweaked with a1300cc modern bike engine, new suspension and brakes and strengthened bodyshell. Never bettered as yet IMO.
Glorious fun cars and very very safe even in all wheel slides OTT. and great cheap fun.
Prices are starting to rise now as ever with old cars.
But good luck to the sellers and, as always each to their own!
All a matter of personal preference!

I think this will require IVA or similar since it appears that a different chasss will be required. As the various topics in PH remind us from time to time registering a heavily modified car correctly is no longer an easy task. It might be possible to get this through as a rebuild but I rather doubt it, personally. Not sure of the legality of what he is proposing, but I have loved Bugs since I was 5 when my uncle had 1!
The many heavily modified cars advertised on the Net as just requiring registration, not selling and then reappearing after failing to sell, tells its own story I think. Lot of effort and work required and no guarantee that the result will satisfy the DVLA/VOSA requirements.
Personally I would look for a complete three wheeler with the two front wheels layout with all the advantages that layout brings. Sliding a Bond Bug is a real challenge, they roll over all too easily. Driven a fair few and they are very idiosyncratic.
