One more piece of holiday candy I could have provided, not that it's a great idea, but saddle bags?

If you move the saddlebags back a lil bit, they would almost look like another wheel faring, without the wheel & they would obscure the view of the rear wheel, giving the rear end a hover-craft appearance! :D

It would look better back there I think, or maybe a little like a weird 4 wheeler, but moving weight backward is counter productive on a reverse trike. There is also nothing solid back there to bolt it to, and we need it clear of access to the panel.
So we make do. :-)

I suppose I could go crazy and work out a sidecar design. (ok a lot crazy then). But you know what I want? A camera that can deploy to a height and show the view forward and reverse, or even 360^. That would be interesting if it can be integrated to the body nicely.

Would that be considered a modern day periscope? :p :rolleyes: :) Z

I couldn't be sure what Envious would look like, but I did my best.
I'm sure if I saw this on the street, I would definitely be envious!

This windshield is either at the very limit of what is possible in glass, or it would just have to be in Plastic. Since open like this it's a motorcycle, that would be legal. Frankly people in all states would have no problem modifying a licensed Elio. They do not re-inspect for windshields anywhere I know of.

Probably have to wear a helmet in some states for the Super so at least get a matching color, or a matching style, or both!.
