2012 Whizzers of the West Coast Whiz-In pictures

[cobrafreak]

What a fun event! There were roughly 83 assorted motorbikes from Whizzers old and new to custom one-offs, Cushman scooters, and everything in between. The highlight of the event is the 83 mile ride along the Sacramento Delta river. There is nothing like a getting a bunch of motorbikes together for a ride. Here are some pictures.

My Wife Debbie and I rode together the whole time. It was a lot of fun.

83 bikes is a great turnout. How did your 50 cc Huasheng perform on the 83 mile ride? Did it keep up with the pack?

The little four stroke my Wife was riding did fine. She had to run at 100% throttle but she averaged 30mph the whole trip. She was probably getting the best mpg at around 150.

Yes, very cool event. We had a great time.
Here is a close up pic I took of your bike in the campground.

Cool pictures, wish I could have gone but had prior commitments. My wife and I went to the last one and had a blast.

I took pics of most of the bikes there.
Here are a few more. I can post more if anyone wants to see them.
One pic is of a cool Marman Twin 2 stroke, that bike made it the whole way (a few didn't). It screamed like an unmuffled chain saw.

Those Whizzers and other bikes are too cool so please post more pics.

The burgundy Whizzer on the right has come to a few of the
SoCal Motor Bicycle Races.

Nice! Not single one out over another but the gray bike with the shock forks and shorty fender on the rear reminds me of a Harley Hummer.

is that an overhead valve train on the yellow bike in post#9 ? It's a whizzer lower end?

Apparently they were made for a short whle and were pretty fast: http://www.mikeybike.com/whizzer_pacemaker_2_overhead_valve_motobike.html

 

[racie35]

made by who?

The Yellow bike is mine. The overhead valve conversion is by Fred Koenke and PBS Engineering in So Ca. It makes about 9 H.P. It really makes a old Whizzer run. Ive been clocked at 67 mph and Im 260 lbs.

That looks like it was huge fun. The ride must have been fantastic with all those bikes.
