[QUOTE="uncle_punk13, post: 50661"] Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself and say hi. Well, my name is Rif Addams, I hail from Washington State. I have, and have had, a number of different moto-bikes My first moto-bike was a Zipper engine kit mounted on a 1960's Huffy middleweight that was butchered painted camoflauge (The guy I got it from said it was used to go rabbit hunting up in the foothills... ) and from the first ride around the block I was hooked! Engines I've had: Zipper~ tecumseh 49'er rear friction drive Bike Bug/Little Devil~ Tanaka manufactured *indestructible* 23cc front wheel friction drive Island Hopper/Harbor Freight~ Tecumseh 49'er Rear wheel friction drive Whizzer~ I rode this one from San Francisco to New York in 2003 to re-create the first motorized crossing of the U.S. by George A. Wyman in 1903 on a motor-bicycle. 50cc Grube~ rear wheel chain drive 80cc Grube~ built on a Schwinn camelback Speedster frame with a bit of kustomization Whizzer NE5 'hot rod'~ The frame/bike for this one is under construction and being heavily modified to endure my cross country adventure this coming July; Washington to Indiana. um, I don't know, I just love old bikes, the art of creating a moto-bike, and the hardship of the long hard road riding these things across the country. Glad to be here and look foward to interacting with other like minded individuals. Happy New Year everyone!!! Rif [/QUOTE]
