A little something ive been working on

Scott,
You've outdone yourself. That is truly amazing. It looks like a barn find. If you hadn't told us you could have passed it off as something you found stashed away and forgotten. I don't see how you could part with it. Especially if the lady likes it.
Beautiful work my friend. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Tom
 
That is beautiful. I wouldnt paint it,looks too good in patina.
How fast does this machine go with the HF engine?
 
Thanks for the compliments. As far as speed goes iI have never topped it out.. I live in a beach community the speed limit is 25 and my average the other day was about 15 - 20 rpm running really low. So I I'm guessing it might hit 40 pretty easy. The nice thing about the way jackshaft is run I think I can change it over to a geared bike fairly easy. By geared I mean peddle side drive running to a cassette on the rear. Also can run a centrifugal clutch. Or maybe run a generator. Just add a longer jackshaft.

Update got a lipo 12 v battery (pretty small) and mounted it under the seat on top of the fender unseen . Getting about 2 1/2 hrs burn time out of it... Oops Tom can you rotate that?
