Beat Box



Homemade East German Simson SR2 3-wheeler moped. The tradesman box is not an original factory option. The process of converting it can be seen in the video below.

One Swallow



This is a Simson KR51 Schwalbe, produced in the hundreds of thousands at the factory in Suhl in the former DDR. 

They've since achieved something of a cult status and I've always somewhat fancied one of these wee 50cc machines, but suspect that I'd look like a circus clown riding one.
