I just saw that new members must post here first... oops!
Well, I'm a cyclist and lover of air cooled engines.
I've had a desire for a motorcycle for about forever... and gas prices have put a damper on my will to drive my VW bus, so I'm looking to combine the two hobbies. (using gas prices as the excuse of course... grin) At the moment I'm thinking to cross breed a dead Tomos with an XR50 based chinese engine/transmission combo, and attempt to retain the pedal power option.
About me... Well I'm based in North Carolina and work on old boats/cars. I can weld, rebuild engines and most anything mechanical. Tend to bite off more than I should, and work through projects to an OCD level...
