One of the classic ways of knowing that an RPG's vehicle design system is clunky - invented, I seem to recall, by  history_monk - is to design a single-seater motorbike and see how it comes out. Too big or heavy and it fails the test.Here's one that came out at Total length of vehicle: 3450 mm Wheel base: 2410 mm Total height: 1480 mm Sitting height: 800 mm Total weight, empty/curb weight: 650 kg (almost 2/3rds of a ton without rider) There's only one problem - someone took the rules seriously and built the bloody thing  The other one isn't exactly a small bike. Makes Big Red look positively puny. NOT one I want Santa to give me for Xmas... | ||||||||

| I read that as "Lawnmaster", assuming you meant a type of lawn mower. | ||||||
