Default AndrewSmiths old SV suggestion thread

We now know Andy has a very nice and shiny white pointy to abuse.
So the burning question is ..... What should the org encourage him to do with the old one.

My suggestion is a 1970s easy rider style trike with the two wheels at the front.
I know this is a bit tame but I'm sure there will be better.

Discuss

Andy should strip out the electrics and take the time to set up a new loom. while he's doing that he could get the plastics and tank sprayed black, the frame swingarm and fork bottoms powder coated black. Whilst getting the wheels done another colour maybe gold.
