Timeless Motor Company

I was researching motors for Jim's project and I came across this:

Timeless Motor Company

Funny thing is I had a dream a few weeks ago of myself riding on something that looks just like this.

I think I am going to have to get myself one.

I really don't know why you, of all people, would get one of those. The bike that you built is much better looking. As a matter of fact, your bike is my screen saver, I keep it for inspiration.

I would buy one in a second...if I could get it licensed for the street somehow.

Just curious ... is there some reason other than no lights that would keep this bike from being street legal? Anyone know how much they cost? Beautiful bike!

I've heard that because of the clutch actuator and the way it works these bikes can not be made street legal. Apparently you have to manually disingage the clutch because it is on a ratchet mechanism. Anyway, that's what I was told. Doesn't sound like anything a good mechanic couldn't overcome because they are neat bikes.

where do they start at with pricing?

[HoughMade]

...and thats the other reason I may not jump on one right away.

Oh yeah, I like the vintage.

The Classic Street Bike particularly.

But for now I'll likely be fabricating my own from old bicycle parts. It's one of the reasons
I liked those Russian motors Grubee had. But they just wanted too much for me. Perhaps
I'll find one on Craigs or fleabay someday. They're with the old look that would fit in to
a vintage replica. I figure I could conseal the turn signals to where they aren't so obvious
and the other things Ohio BMV wants to be street legal.

I'm working on turn signals- I'll post pics when they are done. Very compact.
