    Here's something I threw together today-- My neighbor ran over his kids brand new $200 electric scooter, ruining the frame and forks and was hauling it to the trash when I dug it out. The frame is from a trash find a few weeks ago, but the bars are $12 hardware store finds. Goes pretty good, but no torque off the line. Figure later on I might throw a weed eater motor on it...

    I got a 2 stroke off of a 1953 Jacobsen lawn queen that is going to power my monster big wheel.

    The batteries last about 45 minutes. I'm about $20 in it total, so I think it's cool....Like I said, once the batteries stop taking a charge, I'll put a little 2 stroke in.
