Had 5 of us on the bandit about 5 years ago coming through the green on way home from bud. Was doing surprisingly well until chap on bars asked for a wheelie. Meself and chap on tank was only ones left on bike. Good fun until that

I strapped a couple of golf clubs for pitch n putt sideways across the seat. After filtering to the top of a queue I suddenly remembered them. Luckily I didn't touch anything - but for the rest of the journey it was *like a car* *like a car* *like a car*

I also managed to strap a case of beer (bottles) onto the bike. I don't know why I got the strange looks, surely if I had chucked them into a car it'd just be less noticeable but are bikes not allowed to visibly display their cargo?

Few crates of beer, bungee straps everywhere!

50 kg bag of cement on the tank, 2 cavity blocks in the back box on the CB.
Keg of Guinness on a Vespa PE.

In dominican republic i've seen a family of 5-6, children up to grandmother with all the shopping.

Two lads driving down beside each other with a big ladder beween them.

And a pig.

Well I drove around in full military garb, a tactical vest with 2 handguns in holsters and a G3-SG1 rifle on my back. Does that count as 'strange'?

If it was commuting through traffic, yes. If not, probably not that strange.

Miscreant

Carried a PC home from a friend's house one time, rode a scooter at the time and the CPU was under the seat in the storage compartment (along with keyboard and mouse) and the screen strapped to the pillion seat. Journey was about 10 miles with that stuff and I worried about it every foot of the way!

Picked up one of the lads from a session one night and we seen a wheelchair on the road. I know yeah!! Where the hell was the person who used it. Anyways it turns out wheelchairs can't be dragged that fast behind a bike with someone sitting in it. Was some laugh though.

Reminds me of the time I towed my brother's little 50cc Suzuki moped to the garage behind my RD350YPVS with a bungee cord!..

Accelerating was fun

My compromised BSA M20 outfit back in the early 90's before I discovered JAP and Cages. Carried anything from a dog on the tank, building materials, rubble and a crated one ton capacity Sealey Engine crane from Newry to Dublin. :eek:

I would probably get arrested for attempting any of this now.
