I live for the CABE
Been looking for a Whizzer and of course, prices and conditions are all over the board. Thought about getting a Phantom or a Road Master, one that needs a lot of work and using that as a base to build a Whizzer. I was thinking late 40's early 50's and buying a good period H motor and basically doing what a person did when buying the kits back than. Not sure about spoke thickness, cutting the rear fender and clearing the frame for the drive belt, but if I do all the work myself I should be able to build a nice bike from the ground up. I know we always run a the risk of putting more in than we'll ever get out, but sweet rides are running fro $2500 to $4500 and using parts that are period to the year (40's 50's) one could build a nice Whizzer.
Has anyone attempted it and what are the advantages/pitfalls??
