So thanks to our resident Koala, I got a scooter. This is it after all the plastic is gone.

Scooter

 

Now, I'm currently hunting for a suitable go kart doner frame so I can make something like this.

Trike

 

As luck would have it, it has a knockoff Honday GY6 150cc motor in it, which apparently has a ton of aftermarket support. That means that eventually it's going to end up with a bigger bore, a longer stroke, and possibly a turbo, since I've already found youtube videos of it happening. 

 

If I die, the site is paid up until 2020.

Needs a flame-spitting gibson for the Mad Max feel. I'm sure you're not leaving it bare bones though

No it's still going to get finished. I was set back by rain and lack of welder.

I feel like I'm watching an episode of scrapheap challenge looking at this. :lol:

This is looking great though. Just promise to wear a full suit of armour or something before you go riding it around.


I hope you're having a nice day. :)

Oh man, I used to love that show.

 

I haven't had a chance to get with my welder friend and finish things out yet, but I do have a helmet at least thanks to our Koala.

Good. A helmet is very important. You wouldn't want a brain injury from your Frankenstein kegger death machine.
