I was pedaling down 5th St. today and I met Mark Frohnmayer hisself in a blue one going the other way. I gave a thumbs up but then I realized my Arcimoto hat was still in the glove compartment of the bicycle.

I'd been out at their office and I had the chance to talk to Mike the builder about Indian motorcycle fenders with Ivory Indian-head lights and big saddle bags in black leather with chrome buttons and fringe.

I saw two in assembly bays w/o the plastic nose piece. The headlights are carried on the roll cage, so the nose piece is the first to go. I'm thinking Randy Grubb-style DecoPod-style aluminum with a big Cyclopean DLR.

I believe I saw an opaque roof panel on a table. I want a Haartz-cloth bikini top. It would be shaped like a Model T touring, following the roll cage, with no back window.

I guess a drawing needs to be willed into existence.
