Motorized Bicycle Build Ideas

[Clayon]

Well, this last summer I found a old bicycle frame in the trunk of a old Hudson. I've been itching to build a board tracker type deal for a while, and now once my build off bikes are done I think I finally have accumulated enough junk yard parts to build it. I'm having some trouble deciding a few thing though, and who better to ask then my friends at OldMiniBikes?

Okay, here are the questions:

What motor, 5hp B&S FH? or 3hp Clinton?
Also, from the sketches below, which general style do you like best?

Thanks in advance for the help. :thumbsup:

Top scetch and the clinton, Clay where the pics of the bike frame? Love the smell of a new project

Thanks Tank. :thumbsup: I don't have any at the moment, but it isn't much, lots of surface rust, but the tubing has thick walls.

if you redo the down tube so its curved youll be able to fit the engine alot cleaner.

I would go with the top sketch and the Clinton.

Wow, what a long video. The guy kind of talked like Mr. Rogers, but I will say I rather liked it and it was worth the time. :thumbsup:
