  • This is the same Papoose that Sean from Bikes and Beards didn't make it home on. Maybe there's good reason for that, but I'm going to try it anyway.
    Check out my awesome RM250 Rebuild • 27 year old DIRT BIKE ...

    After watching Shawn and Craig over the Months,I always figured that Craig was the brains behind this well oiled operation........after further analysis I have determined that it's really Dan!

    My daddy bought me one of these in about 1968 when I was 10. Here in the UK it was known as the Corgi and I only found out about the Indian connection many years later when restoring one as a nostalgia project. Mine was a 1948 MK1 with no kick start and only bump start option and came in two wooden tea chests and cost 30/- (that is thirty shillings in 'old money' or £1.50 about $2US). We (he) rebuilt it in an afternoon and I was happily riding it down the road in the evening in a cloud of 2-stroke smoke. I felt like the king of the road.

Either way now with that papoose finished, you'll be all set to ride right out of your future airplane!

    My father gave me a1979 Vespa (old style). Has a lot of chrome racks on it. Sitting in garage since 1980.
    800Miles only. Needs new seat, wiring new brakes, new tires new bulbs.
    It has 150cc I believe with gas and separate oil tank that mixed gas before pumping into engine.
    My disability, I cannot break down and put back properly. If I had a partner to guide,I would do 95% of the work. Blast it, primer, repaint.
    Get original motor running (consider new gasoline motor replacement and kerp original on shelf fixed up.
    Front fender has easy few dents. I can re-chrome wire baskets. Go for nice leather seat maybe. Or original.
