My son bought a Walmart Beach Cruiser and a King's 66cc kit . We started on it Saturday about 1PM and worked on it until 7pm . Took a few brakes and ate plus watched my 2 grandsons age 2 and 7 , in the process . You can guess which job was the most nerve racking . He plans on doing a little more customizing after the bugs get worked out . And we will keep an eye on the welds . Runs like a bat out of **** and rides great . dnut

The Point Beach makes a NICE ride. However the front fender is dangerous, either remove it or reinforce it. I had cracks in mine in less than 100 miles. If you want to paint the tank to match I have a testors paint code for that also.
 
thanks for the fender warning ,and I have your testor paint number from a previous post . How did you go about forming a poo poo pipe for your cruiser ? could you give me details ?
 
I bought it online bike-engines.com actually it fit pretty close. Just needed a bit of bending. I braced it down by the pedals with a hose clamp, and then at the rear too. It's louder than the stock muffler but way cooler.
 
well i tried to look up that exhaust on the website you gave me but all i get is Golden Eagle Co. and they don't seem to have it listed they sell rear mount engine kits . Any suggestions?
 
Leftywoody,
Love the bike but also your neighborhood. Reminds me of the one I grew up in. Great old houses and street.
Dan will probably chime in here because he's a big Point Beach fan and he'll have suggestions about that fender issue. Congrats, have fun and ride careful.

Nice clean bike. Building bikes are always fun. I keep taking one of mine apart and redoing it because i get bored. Rat Rod/ Trash bike is nextdance1
 
when we finished this bike you would have thought my son just got a new car . He was excited . A rat bike would be so cool . I get bored too and I am now starting a 22 day vacation, no plans just whatever comes along . I see your from Ohio .Great state . I live just west of your north west border .
