i still got my rupp that my dad bought me when i was 4yrs old. now that i look back that was way to young to be turned loose on. i can't wait until i have grand children so they can get it for their 4th bday.
Chip was busy last night so instead of terrorizing his neighborhood, I tried out my new GHETTO HELMET Cam 1997... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hGThu0paYUs
I recently picked up what may be a very early 1967 wildcat proto bike - the first ones built by Harrison Research Inc. It has a 5 hp tecumpseh (not orignal) with a Tav2 Torque Converter. Pulls me around pretty good. Before... After
smarg" Your piece of crap is just too cool. What engine? I'm doing something similar with a 1945 Simplex.
Looks like a "converted" emergency room cart/gurney for a roll around work table. The last hospital I worked at had a 1940's era gurney, still being used in Radiology, I would have loved to get my hands on; the wheels even looked like bolt together Centerlines. Butch/56sedandelivery.
Briggs 5 Hp.. Post some pictures of your simplex! My dad has worked in the medical field for a long time we have a bunch of bed frames crawling around the shop.. They make good tire-racks to.

Wow, some of these are awesome! I've always wanted a mini chopper like the ones they always have at Tractor Supply...but they're $599!! I wanted one since the third grade, but my mom wouldn't let me get one. And last year, I thought I was too big for one, but I'm seeing adults ride these things....so I guess not. Maybe I can build one this summer from tips from this thread!
RYNO, nice job! Do you have a guitar to match also? It was a hard choice for me not to paint mine to match my truck. I do have a stratocaster sitting here that will be painted in the next month.
I recently got involved with mini bike drag racing. Here is mine, it started life a 1969 Mac XR250. before after
Thanks a lot! Just picked this up yesterday. Going to rebuild it with my dad...oh how the tables have turned, haha!
Bikes look great guy's! Did a little work on mine over the weekend.Harrison Wildcat.Gotta ride it this year!!
Just keep your eyes peeled at the local swap meets, wrecking yards, scrap yards, and dump. Oh, garage sales too! I, within the last year have bought four of the little beasts, and I have yet to pay more than 25.00 for a frame. As far as motors, every garage out there has a tiller, pressure washer, or other similar garden type implement hanging around in it that isn't used that can be had for free. Ask me how I know! I have six or seven motors now, and they have ranged from free to 20.00. You just have to keep your eyes open... You could soon have this -
ahhhh I gotta get some for the Bonneville trip this year!! Louvers- I think i saw you out at GCC saturday with yours.
