My 50's Home on the Web
| I got the little thing in Nov. 2008 and have been working on it ever since. Not a day goes by where I don't think about what I'm going to do next with this bike. It's been a great experience putting it together and even more fun riding it. ***Make sure to leave feedback in the Guest Book*** Hope you enjoy the site! |

New Year comes around and guess what? It's time for a Big Bore Kit!!!
| November 2009. I got really fed up with the granny super-low 1st gear followed by a huuuuge gap between 1st and 2nd gear. It made riding trails very dificult as I had to rev it up to the moon in 1st before I could even think about going to 2nd. So, I decided to install a Kitaco close ratio tranny from MiniMob. |
