Modern Buddy

i would l ike a show of hands. who wants to see a klx 400 engine and swingarm in a rattler. i have all the donor parts and the equipment to do the job. im just not sure i want to start chopping a working bike. I have built a few custom scoots from the ground up, so its likely to be a quality build. just looking for a few opinions.

I don't want to see you build it. I want to watch you try to ride it.

How many miles per tank of gas to you think that beast would get

Haha, you'd be stopping every ten minutes to fill up, not to mention you'd have to get really good at riding wheelies as your front tire would never touch the ground!

Makes me smile to even think about it

Yea..... I have to say I'm in. Not enough build threads on this forum.

good thoughts are rolling. the wheelbase would be way longer to handle the speed and yes i have thought about not being able to ride it but any bike can be ridden safely. the fuel issue wouldnt be one. I would need a down tube for the upper motor mount i would just put a cycle tank on there. my main issue is rear brake. if i am doing a wheelie through all 5 gears i need a rear brake in a comfortable position and making it look clean and be practical for dismantling i need to come up with a decent design. did i mention the donor bike was thrown away by someone because they lost the motor mount hardware and gave up to buy a new cr 250.

all i am thinking about is stomping a cbr600 ON A SCOOTER

i can remember when your scoot looked like this

Its a new scoot every month
