new bike with old look

[BradBiker]

Please don't tell me all about how the fenders are going to fly off and lock up in the spokes....lol
Seems to be the number one comment when I post the pics on other forums.
Going on 3 years old, I drive the p out of it and not one lick of problems yet.
You have to maintain these bikes and always do a visual before you ride.
When I ride it always makes me smile.
I call it "Red China" cause every part other than the hub-shiners are from there.

home made hub shiners are easy to make and look great!

Looks good. Is that horn a repop too?

Nope....60's Hong Kong. Same with the light. The bike smells like mothballs..lol.

Cool bike and nice race track. Slot car racing rules and my Boss 302 Whips the Camaro every time. I even have a Chevy clock that runs slow.

Slot cars are nice, but my kids don't get the concept. Nothing beats the smell of burning motor windings as far as I'm concerned. I'm also into Lionel trains.

I used to have a sweet permanent 4-lane track layout for racing Thunderjets on. It was a blast sliding those things around the corners. My kids never got into it and I got tired of racing myself. Ended up getting rid of it. :roll:
