The donor bike and a sketch of how ill cut it up and re weld it.... an old used Next suspension bike.. they typically sold well under $100, this one was free.
Wheelbase and ride height look funky.. before the rake, and swing arm mods
after a rake, and swingarm is cut up and modified for the new rear shock position.
in front of my beach cruiser to check how the motor will mount
Stay tuned, next I will add the downtube and motor plate and gussets. Then, tear it all down, and shoot it before final assembly.. Total money invested so far.. $0, and about 4 hours or work.. not bad. I'm pleased![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
