Silly Econofalcon, you're not a Honda.

Seriously how do you talk a guy into taking this seat.
You're going to ride right here with zero protection and take absolute faith I won't kill us both while going over a hundred miles per hour. Also you have to crawl and hang around to adjust the aero and weight.
Cool, where do I sign?

It is crazy! But I would do it! There was one of the faster 1 liter bikes where the guy was way into it and he was leaning way out and was literally dragging his butt around the whole corner. Some guys would lean way out hang on with one arm and wave to the people. Some guys nearly drag their helmets around the corners I would be one of these guys and put magnesium plates on my suit for the kids.

I look at WRC videos and think what kind of nut places their life in the hands of another driver and then I look at these things and find the answer. A suicidal one.

My uncle used to have one of these; it got stolen by a biker gang.

It was a sweet machine. It had a different rear fender and seat than the one in the picture; it looked more like a regular Sportster but with twin carbs and crazy pipes.
He'd listed it for sale in the classifieds and while he wasn't at home some guys came and loaded it up in a stolen truck. They abandoned the truck on down the road and were never seen or heard from again.
I think they later found the frame of his bike, but nothing else was left.
