This time I found what looked like an old Schwinn, ??? it was painted over with a tan housepaint, brown trim, red stripes. subtle but doable, **** it only cost $50. wheels and all. So I took the parts and Motor from "Ol' Dependable" and started transferring to the new frame, but shizit, the DOWN TUBE is too curvy as we all know(now).
Lucky I know how to weld a plate to a tube to the frame, and fix that easy. (and mind you this is b4 I found these forums)
So I'm riding to work and the engine feels really rough! B4 I know it the engine slaps my leg and I skid uncontrollably to a stop. The screws on my mounting plate to engine are gone! Lucky I'm on a bus route.
Now, I'm thinking do I really like these things or r they 2 much trouble for cheap transportation?
Should I abandon all hope of enjoying a reliable long haul Motor Bike? and forget riding down to S America?
