I'm finally starting work on my JC Penny ElTigre. I wanted one when I was a kid and never got one, so I picked one up last summer only 48 years later.:thumbsup:
I remember that they had a Tecumseh engine so I installed a Tec HS50. No that the engine is installed, once I sat on the bike and with the foot peg placement, I am now wondering if the engine is correct for the frame. I realize I'm 60 years old not 12 anymore, but the right foot peg is a reach.
Can anyone confirm which engine is correct and if my complaint about the right hand foot peg position is warranted?
