Dangit! Mustie! Now I've got to start looking for an old bike to cut up. Thanks for this series brother. It is really cool and looks authentic. Also has a great sound to it and does look like a blast to ride. Luckily, around Missouri here, there's no shortage of old bikes. Just got to figure out motor to look "old cool". Thanks again. New subscriber, but definitely a fan. I also hold an advanced degree in Hillbilly Engineering Technology.
Hey must do you want to think my grandpa put that together. I come from a long line of Polacks and we're always forgetting something, wait a minute what did I just say?
Crazy on the ring. I'll bet someone was inside it at some point and oopsie forgot a ring, or just didn't care if it smoked. Maybe the bore hole was so they could share oil?
Hey Mustie, missed a grey air powered bike table lift with extensions and ramp extensions for 550.00 yesterday. Sold about 10-15 minutes before I got the 🙁
it never ceases to amaze me when I take something apart and its wrong, like the other day guy brought in a cb750 said it leaked gas, well yeah when the needles are in upside down that happens. was running great my ass. too bad about your paint safety wire is what I use on small fuel lines in all your tools you must have the special twist pliers
I wonder if someone intentionally left that ring off of there in order to squeeze out some extra hp through less parasitic drag. I have heard of it being done on racing motorcycles but usually it's the oil rings that are left out. That's where "Smokey" Yunick got his nickname years ago. He did the oil ring thing on a racing scooter. Just a thought.
Maybe some industrial-strength paint on the tank. Try Magnet Paints in N.Y.
What is that little engine 😎,,,
Such a powerful motor probably vaporized the ring during a warp-speed run. Lol

Just when you thought you'd seen everything, old Reo has a handicap.
That little motor should be real happy with all it's new rings…..
Cool discovery, you'll make it right.
Watchin for the helmet cam !!
