O.K. here we go. First let me say I use incorrect grammar and spelling. That being said, Please no grammar police. I started by buying 5 scooters for my kids and me. My wife wrecked the first one within 24 hours, in a parking lot that only had one car in it and it was ours. I quickly found out that plastics are hard to get even if the scooter is brand new. What to do with a busted up scooter? Let's build something. I decided to build something that I did not see anyone else building. I purchased an ETON 90cc atv and started my project. Let see how it has gone so far. This is what I started with. As you can see it has taken some turns. The pic. that looks like a little car was my best effort at a body but as Virginia winters are harsh the snow build up last winter crushed it. so now I get too start all over once more. Thanks for looking. Now lets see if I can get this thing built before the End of summer this year. New plan I'm going in the Can-Am direction. Wish my broke ass luck.

Remember seeing parked micros with handlebars (Messerschmidt?) in Frankfurt in about '57, & plenty of Isettas.

I think you should just slap a seat on it and then ride it around in a big field of wet grass so you can drift it. Great for pulling a "lawn job" on those nasty nosy neighbors everyone wishes would drop dead. They climb into their car and drive away, you go over and give them a free surprise landscaping re-vamp.

Yes, I meant my comment as a compliment. Part of a Jim Morrison quote. Sorry if that was unclear.

Well today I did a total break down. Time to get serious with some cleaning,sanding and painting. I wish the micro car thing would have worked out but like I said the snow last winter crushed it. Love me some micro cars. The Germans built great little micros. How ever in the state of Virginia we have that 24 inch seat height you have to deal with. That kind of dictates body style. I wanted a year around rider but that got CRUSHED!!!! Damn snow and no garage! That's ok I will move on. Don't worry about calling my ideas weird as I am a touch off. I ride a scooter and love it more than the gold wing I had.
