I've been working a really good deal $ wise on a standard frame K&S Hornet with disc brake caliper mount. It looks to have been painted at a school bus company because that dark mustard yellow paint is tough to look at. I plan to use some 6" Mancos with a nice drum brake setup rather than the disc setup so it will look right except the brake but I can live with that.
Right now it has scat cat rear wheel and a random front runner and a silly foot brake working the band.:doah: Anyway I got it delivered today by my buddy who had it and he brought another bike with him so I'm making a clone powered neighborhood bomber out of it.:thumbsup:
Turns out the other bike a Western Flyer SS300 with Scat Cat forks adapted to the frame but well done they really work well so it will stay like that since I got no W/F forks laying around. Like I said up above the W/F wheels are on the K&S with a janky foot actuated band brake and remnants of the band bracket that I will have to reconstruct to get it back on the Flyer. So it will have it's correct wheel out back and a decent front runner. I got $120 in both bikes plus I gave my buddy a set of 6" steel wheels with a good sprocket for his Roper, we plan to build similar Ropers and terrorize the neighborhood.:laugh:
