1972 Speedway Widow Maker

[mini one]

OK so when I bought this bike I was told that was the year and model. I guess some did come with the plate tab and a tail light, could have been welded on after, I'm no Speedway expert. P.O. bought it from the original who had a speedway trike too, didn't get that though... It seems to have only black paint underneath the re-paint. Gas tank great inside. 14" wheels. Newer 4HP runs and rides fine. Needs clutch cover, front brake (hub) arm and rear fender to be complete. 700.00 or 600.00 without the engine/clutch as a roller.

NOT a widow maker, widow maker has a Sachs 2 -cycle motor. Could be a Red Baron if has HS-40 or Green Horn if has HS-50.

 

[mini one]

umm, it's not the original motor.

Ummm, without the original engine how do you know it's a Widow Maker? It was probably a Blue Angel since it doesn't have headlight mounts.

Don't know if my e-mails are sending, but those interested can let me know if you didn't get the pics and I'll use another computer from my e-mail and not this PM here. A couple addresses bounced back...

mini one, I know this is an off topic question but I saw one of your older threads about looking for places to ride.. You ever find anything decent down your way?

 

[mini one]

I would consider a Heald or similar big tire bike trade also.
600.00 or 500.00 as a roller now
briggs, I sent you a couple PM's
Again, don't know what it started out as originally.
