I recognize that engine -- It was originally on a Cat bike -- Eliminator, or maybe a Dominator?

It looks great!

If you are referring to the black one, it is original to this bike:

I'm mistaken then. It's the exact same decal as this engine:

You did a nice job on the engine! I didn't mean to hijack your thread!

Slick! Johnny likey!

Haven't I seen that receiver in the background of ebay ads?

 

[Not so mini bike]

That engine looks great. I'm getting ready to do a couple my self. You did a fantastic job.

That was quite an interesting assumption Mr. Cowboy, however, if you look at both the white and black engine in the first pic...you can see the remnants the original, faded, checkered flag Tecumseh decals. :thumbsup:

Thanks Johnny!

I've never made an ebay ad. that had the receiver in the background. That vintage gem pumps out 220w and has a built in equalizer. :smile:

Thank you! This is the first one I've done and I've very happy with the results. I scored the white 1970 next to it from you, and it will soon be restored and find a new home in my 1970 SSScat II.
