The '69 Bonanza BC1000 is done!

Here are some pics of the bike when we got it for $40.

Here is what it looks like now! It still has the 3HP Briggs flattie that it came with, though I am thinking I will upgrade as soon as the kids can ride well... probably put a 6.5 clone on there. It does well with the 3hp, it has no governor and I am confident I hit 30 MPH yesterday, but I was going down a slight hill. I hit 20-25 on a flat area, and I am 190lbs.

I fabbed up a cool little chain guard....

Got goop on the tank riding yesterday, I'll have to fix that

Rear pegs are foldable, just like the originals, I fabbed these up and Rhino lined them
