Is 5 seater a poossibilities????
Just wandering whether a 5 year old child could be positioned on the central drivetrain columm and if a small racing type harness could be used as seat belts , as i have 3 children aged 15 11 and 5 it would be nice to ocasionally go for a spin together. I NOTICED THAT THERE seems TO BE ENOUGH room .in the rear between the 2 bucket seat for a small child .HIS MEASUREMENTS. ARE .height 116cm width 21cm weight approx. 22kg. any assistance would be appreciated.
LONG LIVE THE ROTARY REVOLUTION 50 YEARS OLD AND GETTING YOUNGER.

There is no way you'll be able to put a child on the center hump. In addition to it being extremely unsafe, the central hump has all sorts of storage space, so you'd most likely bow that, if not completely destroy it. And I seriously doubt it would be very comfortable.

Maybe some kind of saddle for the hump could be developed to hold the five year old. It could lock into place using the storage bin and the trunk pass through as anchor points and include its own shoulder belt.
