I found this beauty while on a hunt for a project bike. It wasn't what I was looking for but I couldn't turn it down, plus I snagged it for $60. It was sitting behind "Ben's Bargins" in a little hick town just a little ways from here. It needs a ton of work and is missing the shifter for the 3 speed but man it is pretty. The siren/motor noise maker was a big bonus too!

I'm thinking about making a suicide style shifter for this guy. Does anyone have any ideas on how to go about that?
 
You can find different ways to do it. Search for 'Boss Chief'. Also... man, I can't remember the name, but he took a Shimano twist shifter and made it part of the seat post. Cool as heck.

I wonder is a 3-speed stick shifter would work better?
