Gee, sounds kinda' like my fantasy of getting an old 850-T with a "Miss
Piggy" fairing, and a couple of military "marmite" cans for saddlebags.
I'd paint the whole thing with flat black spray bomb and add a hitch so
that I could hook up a rolling portable pig roaster. I could see it now,
stopping for gas every 175 or so miles, adding charcoal, and checking to
see if the hog was done. Bet I'd be the hit of every rally I showed up
at with that kind of rig. Oh, I'd have to get a big chuck wagon style
triangle to hang off the luggage rack. Upon arrival at the meet I'd get
out a big tire iron and beat on the triangle and let everybody know that
it was time to eat!
