It must be done!

[Highwaystar]

I have a really bad habit of buying bikes to motor, then I ride them and I can't bring myself to follow through with motorizing. Pretty sad, huh?

This one is different. I have been drooling over the BTR styled Worksmans for some time now. A couple days ago one landed in my driveway. I will post pics very soon. I had originally bought it with hopes of having it converted to WZ Flyer specs, but I think those guys are busy with something new that will be better suited to the Whizzer.(fingers crossed)

So that leaves me with a perfectly good Worksman to do something with. Hopefully a few orders from some of our awesome vendors along with some local talent, I will be sporting a nice BTR in the future.

Wish me luck!LOL

If you plan to, want to stretch the frame get ahold of Dan at Taylar motorbikes

Tell him Truckd referred you and you might even ask about the Worksman Stretch & down Loop kit for the Worksman if you plan to weld it your self.

Dude that is awesome! Many thanks!

A weld in kit would be great. I am not a welder, but I have many friends that are.( I must admit, that is part of the reason I never really do much welding. Every time I need something welded there is always an awesome welder standing next to me.LOL)

Dan can do either good luck and keep us posted!

Hey! Highway..........
Have you gotten ahold of Dan yet?

 

[Highwaystar]

I spoke with him today. Great guy. I may go ahead and motor this one with no stretch, and then just get a complete set up from him to do a ground up build. He definitely gave me some ideas!

I have a Sportsman Flyer Deluxe done by Pat Dolan, set up for a china engine no room for any bigger engine without stretching the bike same amount of room with a regular Worksman, so if you want the power in a smaller size frame either beef up that china engine or get a little Hushaung 4 stroker.

 

[Highwaystar]

A china chic will do just fine. This bike will mostly be used by friends that want to ride when I am on the Whizzer. My wife and oldest daughter may want to use it some too.

As long as performs as well as the 1903 I built. I will be happy.

It's a long arduous process but well worth it. Hope you are inventive and resourceful with lots time, patience, tools and money!

I started with a Worksman. Maybe 5% of the original bike remains and that's becoming less and less. Rebuilding the chain and rear seat stays now to accept bigger, fatter tires.
