First real road going thing I owned was a 1947 Cushman step thru scooter when I was 11. Rode it til I was 15 and got a 57 Triumph
Tiger motorcycle. Always wanted another Cushman so I few years back I looked for one. No way I could afford the prices they were bringing.
So decided to build something similar. Its scratch built from scrounged materials. Powered by an ungoverned 212 electric start and a clone
Tav30. Has a rear hydraulic disc which really hauls it down. Front end is a NOS 65 Suzuki 100. Even has an analog GPS speedo. Its tops in the low 50s and is fairly quick about it. Body removes quickly for service. Its easy and a pleasure to ride.
