Yes, I was thinking of the blue elements as a tank, but it seems to lack
a bit of height.  Putting a plate on the top may help to give the
impression of a tank.  But I'm worried that putting a plate on top of a
half-pin will make the plate swiwel around; I need a means to secure it
better.

anyway, you could use a short shaft and put a flat plat there for the
seat .

I probably need to outline the seat better, yes.  I was thinking that
the two black halfbeams should do the job of looking like a seat, but
giving it a bit more volume should be nice.

  The wheels look great if you are going for the mini bike look. my
own opinion would be the pulley wheels would be too narrow.

I was aiming for the street bike look, so the wheels should probably be
somewhere between the 30.4×14VR and the pulley wheels.

Thanks for the comments.
