i get most of my stuff from him. did the paint job myself with heat resistant paint. did not want to put too much bling on it as fire wall is stinless as well. then bought the bling from dave . motor is standard 1600 for now. will b puttn on a kit dave makes up for the twin port. not the two bad ass carbs with the cool link rods. maybe later.

I have been meaning to ask, does the choice of red have anything to do with the red beach buggy body standing by it?

good note, the answer is no. i wondered how long u buggy nuts would take to pick up on the buggy in the background. dave was building it for a customer of his. apparently with a VISHAAS motor.
