Old Man's Doodle-Bug build (OldMiniBikes Build-off)

[hayden]

dose any body else see that one of those bars is bent? im thinking about painting my doodle black after seeing yours.

 

[OldMan]

Yeah... I noticed.... just haven't wanted to light the torch and straighten it... yet! :biggrin:

 

[GTO]

One of the bars came bent? :doah::sadcrying4:

Looks great in black! :thumbsup:

 

[OldMan]

It's very slight... I didn't even notice until I took the head-on pics.

I finally have a tank on the way for this one... now to decide on a seat.

Standard black seat with black / silver metal flake top...silver piping...that would look cool!!

Kenny,

Exactly what I was thinking... pm me a price and I will send you the money. :biggrin:

 

[kbs8ball]

OK I put a racing stripe on it for you..it would be a little plain with just a flat top. should look good on your dbug.

[OldMan]

Nice job... thanks.

 

[kbs8ball]

[GTO]

Nice seat but he's just going to leave a skid mark in the middle! :doah:

OldMans bike with that seat is a really nice combination. :thumbsup:

 

[Jleon]

Kinda small!

 

[kbs8ball]

I was wondering what kind of speed you would get from the engine/tav combo OldMan is using? Thanks..... I've never used a tav, just curious

 

[OldMan]

The seat has arrived... still waiting for my brake... shipped today... maybe next week, I'll find out how fast it will run.

 

[OldMan]

Well, it’s finished… not sure I like the tank, but it’ll stay for a time while I decide.

I might still add an additional kill switch, but for now it’s done.

It is an awesome ride with the 6hp Tec and TAV2… wheelies come easy, and sometimes unexpected! :biggrin:

I hope everyone else has as much fun as I did.

That Mini is Kool .It's the same frame/engine combo that I use for my Mini-Moto race bike . I didn't use the TAV2 system,is it worth the effort ?

 

[jimh]

If whatever made that puddle beside it ran down your leg, I'd guess it runs great. hmy: :biggrin:
