Hey guys! My name is Zach and I live in Michigan. I'm 18 years old and about to start college soon going into natural resources management (quite fitting for this forum i.e. saving gas, right?)
I'm a bicycle guy but recently had the desire to put a 66cc engine on my board track bike which built from frame up; I found the frame at a scrap yard (1960s Spaceliner frame).
I'm into old Indian motorcycles but what are the chances of getting one of those? So I just built mine to look old. The handlebars are off of a 1936 Schwinn Excelsior, I have 1950s truss rods, old Brooks saddle, non-reflective '68 Schwinn pedals, etc.
I'm getting a 36T sprocket and a performance carburetor so I can hit higher speeds.
Anyways, here is my bike. It still needs some work but not much.
It seems as if there is endless information on this site -- very detailed threads that I have used and already benefited from. Thanks!
