It is good to see some people here actually have some imagination. But How legal would that be ?

I think we are taking this originality thing a bit too far.
I have an ex-GT RH tank in my `wasaMatic', it's mounted with a stock LH strap clamp, on a piece of wood. It's nice and rigid and sitting in the right place.
Go on, say it's illegal then... :twisted:
