My old school build

I found an old 50s monark bike and I just could not resist I allways wanted a vintage board track bike this is what I came up with

Very nice.

I've craved a frame with more leg room than the modern bikes. Like this one.

But I see that that also made for engine mount issues.

Thank you for all the nice comments it still has a little ways to go yet little details here and there I am really pleased with the looks so far I tried to keep as much of the original bike as I could..The hardest part with the motor was keeping the original sprocket and chain guard which is why it is mounted up so high. sorry the pics are all over the place it was my first attempt to upload on this sight..I will try again

That's a really lovely old bike and the way you've mounted the engine looks good.

I had a very similar bike. I made a cylinder tank that fit inside of the horn tank out of 2" electric Conduit.
