Rough old barn find, wrecked or burnt fine just looking for
a reasonably priced roller or frame for a project.

i'm really curious about this one. Knowing your other projects, this should be good.

Well I ride a 30yr old moped (ya the kind you peddle to start) to work
every day, thing only does 26/27 mph.....not my speed but 100mpg.

The old Cushmans did anywhere from 30-60 mph depending on the
motor,trans and clutch. The trend of the old farts is using an 18hp
Briggs and a Comet clutch geared for 70mph max and still very quick
out of the whole. Im leaning more towards a buddy's 1300 Yamaha
Venture as a powerplant or an old automatic Honda cycle motor/trans.
Whatever powers it, it will be outside the box :devil

5.5hp and a 5spd needed wheelie bars on the barstool racer :)
