Hey all y'all......been a while since I posted anything....haven't been inspired.....until now....
I bought a motorized bike off Craigslist that was in pieces in a big ol' box....got it for two hundred.....( of course after careful viewing ).....low and behold.....I made a steal.....an old Schwinn Pantera frame....painted " Deep Purple "....full chrome fenders....and somewhere along the line someone installed mountain bikes forks painted the same color....with tabs for a disc brake...which were included...it's a simple 49cc motor....nothing special....cruises at about 25.....but very comfortable after me replacing the seat .......I swapped out the exhaust with one I had laying around....rebuilt the carb.....this and that...this and that.....I'm not done with it yet......but so far it's fun as **** !.....and is very safe....the brakes are AWESOME !.....here's some snaps of said bike.....I need some feedback....open to suggestions.....but not anything obnoxious like from Norm.......
Thanks,
Salty
