Yes I am pleased so far...lots of details to sort out. I think getting right back to building has been kinda therapeutic...after the loss
It's kinda flitting that this rascal resto mod be the first one since I never got a chance to finish the last big resto rascal
So we're moving right along...
it's got a heartbeat now that's a 212 tillotson with many modifications and plenty of hot sauce to haul around my skinny
118 lb body on 6" tires. I don't want to bore anyone with engine specs....unless y'all want to know..if so I'll post up the build specs for the Tilly for your amusement
So I posted up about my recent stolen bikes and the good resolution....so time to get going on...next
This bike started out with a GPS rascal " lite" frame

It's a roller now. I...
My 2 cents…I run one line from the crank case to the valve cover

Thanks for all the sympathy guys

I came into work this morning to find my 5x9 trailer open and my 3 beautiful mini bikes are gone !!! I feel like someone kicked me in the balls !! I’m missing a little rascal…a full size rascal and a mega Moto 80 I’ve posted text and photos and I’ll attach photos again
They were stolen on...

We went and had a blast. I brought home a bone stock unmolested Murray track
2…. I have coveted this machine for years and now have a great example of this period piece.
