Just to show other people what i mean!

Certainly is a conversation starter, fingers crossed some of those casual talks lead to additions to the collection. I like it.

What a great little bike. What's it like over sand?

Love it Jarret! Not only does it look cool, but it must have been fun to build as well.

That is a really great project Jarret and i'm impressed with how it has turned out - I can imagine it was quite challenging but you have really nailed it.
40mph though - don't you need to register it as a motorcycle? Or are the laws based on the engine size?

Thanks Anderson! I haven't been able to try it on sand yet, but I am very curious on how it will preform in those conditions. A friend of mine has some beach front property. I may bring the bike with me the next time im over for a visit.

Best regards- Jarret

I greatly appreciate the support HoundsTooth! Unfortunately I haven't read up on the laws covering these types of things yet. But I do believe you are right. If your vehicle goes over a certain speed it has to be registered. I think this bike exceeds the speed limit for no registration. This is definitely something I need to look into soon. On the upside the test drives I preformed were on private property.

Best regards- Jarret

Fabulous job, Jarret!
The bow-frame shape has a real period look to it and I’m sure you could easily (were you so unscrupulously inclined), pass it off as a ‘restoration’, rather than a modification!

Absolutely wonderful!

Well done and thanks for the grin!

All the very best,
Bob
