....like Daimler/Mercedes  Benz  , Liga preceded Saki in the partnership with the famous Japanese motorcycle works started by Kawa.....at least that's how I think it went , yeah .

Of course wood is ok for a LAKEster frame.  Wood floats.
Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.

I guess you guys never saw the real lakester that seated 6 as it motored around El mirage looking a lot like a converted wooden canoe.
When Kent gets done with the chicken wire and plaster, that bike will be really swishy. :wink:

The MC displayed is the prototype for the  SCTA "Generica" bike they are developing
 that is only going to be "HALFAST" anyway.
 The use of local materials to match the skills of the locals is the ultimate objective.
 They are striving to take only 1 step back at a time so as to not be noticed.
 Sometimes they trip up and take 2 or 3 but if the
 bikers don't speak up they are harmless.  :wink:

The new prototype will feature Willow rather than Fir for the front forks, thereby negating the need for suspension.  The driver, obviously, Mr. Doug Fir..................

Willow Meana has been selected because she presents a smaller , more aerodynamic package and she eats less. :wink:
