Very nice design and fabrication. I'm totally rippin' off some of the ideas here for my next project. I have a 15 horse Kohler motor that needs a home in a street legal/beach scoot. My wife's parents have a place down in South Padre Island. Maybe a mash-up of what you, OND and Firemarshall are doing.


I'm very impressed!

Thanks HP, Rugblaster and OND,

My brother popped round yesterday and we were both sitting on a bucket staring at the bike, Gonna make a few tweaks to the front rockers.
Will change the aesthetics slightly and I have found a new place to mount the bars which is going to look soooo Cool.

Might get some time in this week will see what happens

Thanks Bill, Tippy, Dave, Jdogg, Uncle T and Joe. Steep learning curve on this one, but really enjoying the build.

This weekend added cheek plates to the forks. Shortend the shocks and changed the angle between forks and the tree. Makes it look a little beter.
Then turned up two bushes for the Toyota Hilux leaf spring seat. This weekend I'll have a crackat the drive train.
