What a week.....
After only riding to work two days this week with the ill-fated carb transplant, the camel's back was offcially broken friday afternoon.
*Kickstand snapped clean off
*Bike still would not run properly from idle, or get going once stopped
*Right side crank arm snapped straight through the pedal bolt hole leaving me stranded 10k's from home
I've decided to pull the motor from the Chopper and return it to a pedal only bike.
Question is, what now? This bike was built 'cos I can't drive and was hoping to save the $60 (plus time) that it takes me to get to work every week, plus allow me some freedom from being dependant on ohers to get me around, but I feel this combo will never work! I've dumped the bike out the back in disgust and don't feel like touching it any time soon.
Sorry for the rant.......
