NO. Please do not contemplate this.
Designed for a very small light bike. Look strong but will be very light as most of the material has been machined away underneath.
Looks like even the stem is alloy.

Getting older but no wiser! Just using bigger hammers.
The answer to most problems, fire and lots of it.

i saw a few at 48 mm but hellish expensive. I could go to custom made yokes, but that will be a lot of £££ I think  |

If you know someone that could bore the holes for you ,
You could do the rest yourself.

I suppose a good staring point would be wheel width.
That will give you an idea on the hole spacing.

Thats the trigger i needed Hunter:) If I start there I can get the caliper carriers in , speedo drive etc and that will then set me a width between the rockerss. I could rough all that out to prove how I was going to do it. once I knw that I can work uphill on my dimensions I have a fat bob style tank on, so wider stachions (and fatter ones) will give it a more balanced look I suppose |

i wouldn't worry about the clutch Rod. i standard reliant weighs just over 400kg and it can carry 4 adults  . so yours at 300kgs plus 2 adults. that leaves 100kg plus 2 adults and a bit to play with  |

Maybe its deceptive Rod. True there are 2 chairs to the rear and a little steel behind them, other than that its about the same I think. Currently weighs about 250 kg with all the stuff on, I am expecting 300 - 350 when its finished.
