I've been trying to figure that out... I don't think you can put them on backwards. My guess was someone lawn darted, or ran into something.
The front end you linked looks just like my 200S.
I can see that happening lol.Quote:

I gave up trying to get it running on film. After a broken pull cord, I did get it running. I took it for a ride, and it died right at the end of the driveway. This meant I had to push the 300lb pig up hill about a 1/4 mile. Haha... Guess that is what I get for being lazy and not cleaning the carb out...
Tomorrow I'll try and get the carb cleaned out. Although I have to start on a engine swap on a International with a 466, and a Saturn VUE needs brakes.
First step of confessing you are a modder :DQuote:

The idea is coming together...

Having had moral issues with cutting a wheel off my ATC, I'm pondering maybe changing the build to keep it a three-wheeler. But still in the bobber/brat family.
Start by making a swing arm, and shock setup similar to this bike from TCU.
Everything else roughly the same. Sportster tank, etc.
