    Wow that motor is crazy! Funny you’d say that about putting motor in it. The guy who gracious got it for me, thought it was from some kind of moped/whizzer. Like the visual of a riveted tank. Not a motor guy, but it would make killer motorized ride, but for me I’d never go that route with this.

    Didn’t realize this was a build off to break speed records, better eat some pizza and go back to the drawing board.

    Id like to respond to your comment again. I can tell you and I think alike. I got people calling this frame a “ rust bucket” and a “ Sh——y” looking frame? This is “ Ratrodbikes “ by the way people. I Don’t get people putting fake patina on new bikes and stripping nice “Real patina” off old. You...
