My Kite mobile

It fits... just.

I thought you'd parked on a golf course at first..... Cute little car, that. I"d be thinking a tow bar with a clamp - like a jockey wheel clamp - that could grab the axle with some sort of upright incorporated (like some multi-bicycle racks?) to attach to the down tube. Might be less risky to the duco than putting it on the roof.

Or maybe a small trailer......

Is that a Suzuki? If so, I had one of the original "Suzuki Jeeps" that they only imported into Hawaii during the 80's (had to sign an agreement that I wouldn't take it out of the state when I bought it). It looked like a miniature Willys Jeep, had a 2 cylinder engine and maxed out at 45 mph on the freeway. But that puppy worked great on the beach. That was my 2nd "beach mobile".

Love it!

I have a suzuki sidekick as well. This is my fourth Suzuki jeep; totally great gas mileage and go-anywhere type of vehicle.

Luckily my PL folder fits inside with just the front wheel removed.

Nice I thought about doing that but I'd destroy the roof of my wife's car; and there's no way I'm putting it on my car. so I got a trailer The geo can pull a small trailer; before i landed on the trailer I have now, I thought about using a motorcycle trailer (the one for towing from a mototcycle) and put a bracket on top for the buggy and use the inside for kites

They're called Jimny here and are pretty legendary! Have a look around YouTube, there's video of the Jimny driving around underwater and stuff
... the wife's car is the Mitsubishi version called "Pajero Mini" which is a bit less spartan. Bit of a tight fit to get me inside it, let alone a few kites, boards etc still, a pretty impressive 4WD for such a small car - and the intercooled-turbo puts out enough grunt to light the wheels up
Horrendous on the highway at even 60mph though - 7,000rpm for hours is not jun :o

No need to hunt him down, Kami, address is right there in the location spot! lol :duh:

Nice ride, my wife had one that was white with over sized mudders. Had the hard top with a rack built in. Thing could climb trees.
They do make a hitch for it, you could rig up a rack for the bug to hang off the back.
If the wind dies at the beach, you could go out and play-tell the rangers it's an atv with doors

This is what I'm thinking of using for my next "kite mobile":



No room for a buggy but I plan on building a rack to carry my kiteboard and Venom.

Nice! 49cc right?

?? In Oregon all you need is a flag, tag, and fire extinguisher, to go anywhere ATVs are allowed. Is it deferent up north?

Right, 49cc. I saw a young guy on the beach who built one from a mountain bike and it inspired me. I live 3.3 miles from the beach which would be a piece of cake to peddle, except there's a 100' incline on the bridge over to the island. That incline would get old fast. A little motor would be a big help I think. This summer they'll be charging $10 a day to park at the beach, so this is what I think I'll use instead. The bike racks are always empty, so parking won't be a problem.
