What cool adaptions for current vehicles can you think of?

The bow and arrow mods would have to use an alternative steering system. I think you start coasting and steady with the knees then you can go back to normal steering afterwards.

You could maybe add some foot pads to the side of the forks, and steady the direction like that, but I think (from attempted experience) that it is maybe as much work to learn to balance well... Hmmm, How about a Baja Bug fitted with low rider kit with a couple of mounted BB guns? I think we're onto something there myself... :D
