That effin turtle gave me a 3rd degree burn and almost broke my leg just above the ankle.

BTW I think I'll get more ridin' done, not less!

There may be some turtle hunting expeditions while on sabbatical. There's room for trophies on the shop wall.

Cheers! (No actual turtles were harmed in the making of this thread)

Should have Fotos of the MotorNewsBoy w/ the in frame tank shortly (week or so). Also, HuckerSteve and I shot vid of it going real fast. I'll get those up shortly as well!

It eats mega range freewheels for breakfast but after I figured that out it's been smooth sailin'!

Cheers!

I was helping develop this and still use it as my daily rider trany/reduction. I have bought the tools necessary to make em. (Just a mill/lathe) There were some things I did not like about it. Nothing terrible but just some things that could be a little more user friendly and lack of smooth take off. But is dang sexy.

As this was for the HF 79cc, (so as to be unobtrusive to existing products and at that time friends) and now they have become unavailable, I was worried but turns out the 99cc Predator engine is the same dimensions.

Any way and with all that said should be testing the V.2 in a short while and will report.

This is not to be a business venture and will build a few after safety testing, will sell or trade for material cost and time only. I am not really wanting to get into all the crazy vendor stuff and as a mod, I really can't. So will make some for friends and folks here and there if there is any interest.

I had called Evan a few months back. He said he was working on a car of his own design and didn't mention getting back into MBs at all. There was a whole bunch of unpleasant with this project.

Nope, I am a fairly new appointed servant (mod and pretty much self propelled anti-spam devise)

Did you stop motorized bicycle riding altogether Jared?

Finally got to ask some one else who quit em to ask why. I always wonder. He had told me it was due to a move and the roads not being conducive to motorized bicycle riding but got the feeling he just lost interest. I know I get board and frustrated with em at times. Love/hate/ ah, forget it sort of thing. lol
