HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERE'S JOHNNY!!!

Mark took the pics, I'll take some more detailed stuff later when it gets here. Total cost? 50 dollars, 1x7.5 sheet of diamond plate steel, and a burrito. Mark loves burritos.

I'm going to get it running (carb kit and battery), I've got a headlight and taillight here somewhere, prolly order some ebay signals, then finish cleaning all the crap under the seat and make it look neater.

Shop fighter!!

put a huge chain saw motor on that thing

Lol, mods will be fairly minimal on this. For right now mods are actually fixes so that I can get it on the road asap. But down the road it'll still be minimal, as this will be my shop vehicle and needs to stay somewhat "normal". Gonna be fun making the attachment to haul a trailer, and making the trailer itself.

Once it's up and running, I'm gonna spray bomb it bright green, and make signs to hang off the sides

It's already got one, LOL.

I've seen some pretty beat scooters, but damn. She's seen better days, huh?

What are you gona trailer with that thing? Parts and supplies I'm guessing?

Fight Everything · 10-10-2011, 06:17 PM

My toolboxes, parts, supplies, etc. I'm currently running around town with a bicycle and a bicycle trailer I modded for cargo use. Even as bad as the trailer looks right now (I sealed the wood, but it didn't last and looks old as shit now), I get compliments for being green (like I care about that) and doing something different (I DO care about that lol).

A small coincidence for you guys. This is the exact make/model/color/size of bike of any kind that I first rode (excluding bicycles). My gramma used to have a red Riva when I was a kid, and I rode that thing all over the county picking up cans and making money. Not sure what years hers was though.

Haha looks like she got laid down pretty hard. I acquired one of these for free a few years back. With ~200lb person I couldn't quite get it to do 30 on flat ground.

The main drawback on these is that with a BBK it will only do about 45 due to trans. Extremely fun to put around in however!

150 kit.

Do it.

does that thing got a hemi?

Fight Everything · 10-10-2011, 06:51 PM

Later down the road I might see about swapping for one of the larger motors. For right now, the idea is to be able to get around at all, and it doesn't get any cheaper than running around on a moped.
