As kids in the country - sometimes this stuff just appears - and I hated that thing.
If you ever see how they were factory - with retarded kick start facing forward -

Cool this guy made huge make over - but I'd walk on.
It should be half track - skidding logs out between the trees.

This one was electric start. I do remember the old ones though. Rode a bunch of them in the early 60's.

"Had it above 100 on the freeway" brave soul, that he is.

I'd be literally afraid to even get ON the freeway .. no matter how fast it would run. Id run it in tow on the backstreets, but that's about as far as I'd push my luck.

My first set of wheels - old black Cushman. Could ride all day at 65 on those big fat tires. That was just about all she had, but more than enough for a beginner. Got my MC license at 14 on her.
