one of those bicycle fantasy things i guess, i wouldnt really hunt this one down but an s&m TIKI frame, only 50 were made, it has a Hawaii theme because Hawaii was the 50th state.

Oh heck yeah. Never saw that Felt before, but I've always loved the old motorcycles that have that style of front license plate.

I would say an original Krate/Picker since I never could afford a Stingray growing up. I do not have a Black Friday Krate, but it's just not the same. :?

Elgin twin bar...........Drool.....................

 

[davy B]

my mouth actually dropped open when i saw that Elgin picture,

 

[outskirtscustoms]

Mine too. Still does........Could you imagine that with some nice paint on it some 24 x 3's on it and some whitewall flamed tires.........sexy.

 

[outskirtscustoms]

That front shroud and lights for my Elgin twin bar.

26 inch motomags. Yes the were made, but in very small numbers.

Really? I had a 20" motomag when I was a kid, I never knew they made a 26 though.

oh the love i would put into restoring that. there is one on ebay right now that looks like it was kept in the garden since it came out of the factory, its at 200, its so rusty ill bet you could pop the frame welds with a rubber mallet. just throwing it out there if someone is interested.

Yikes, that's a little on the rough side even for me, all it'd be good for is making a pattern to make a new frame.

What's in a name... :lol: 8)

 

[halsencrew]

^^^ is that shaft driven and new wow sweet

 

[outskirtscustoms]

Nice, I wonder how hard those shaft drives are to work on and how well they wear?

 

[Ace]

I have no idea about the performance of a shaftdrive, I just love everything about this bike - even the name I can live with :mrgreen:

One thing is strange though: it says in the specs it has a hub dynamo - but where are the lights ? :?

It runs a seat warmer.

[seetheusachevy]

I just want a Schwinn Manta Ray. Is that too much for a fat kid to ask for?

 

[corysmeltzer]
