Something I did a long time ago to the fenders of a newer doodlebug.

This is a DB30 a friend of mine built around 2008-2009. Lowered fenders with a 110cc Lifan 4spd in it. I bought it off him in 2018 and sold it to another friend a few years ago. I have no idea if he followed through with his plans to put a bigger engine in it.

This bike used to be the hottest thing on the market, they were just everyware, people loved them, they were cheep easy to mod and looked so much better with a bigger motor in the frame. It was a mistake updating this bike to the newer weird looking model because no one liked those and the company went under a few years later. Somone needs to bring this bike back!

Nice mods by the way I like it, looks good.

I definitely prefer the old 1st generation Doodlebugs as well. They’re traditional-looking (you might even call them legit “vintage” at this point), tall enough to easily accept most engines, and be a halfway comfortable ride for adults. However, they probably pivoted to selling newer low-slung frame styles, as they have lower seat heights that are easier for small kids to ride, plus look a bit more modern and trendy.

Here’s one I built that’s mostly in interesting due to it being raised a couple inches. Made it sit a bit nicer for a tall guy, and gave it a bit more ground clearance.
