Been doing some projects at my brothers workshop. His son has been swapping out the handlebars on his scooter. My brother, a friend and I were speculating how his scooter would make a good donor vehicle for a custom garden tractor. We could repower several different units with that engine. Even a bigger version of my brothers choremaster!! Needless to say my nephew was not impressed at all!!! Go figure! Tim Allen would have loved it.
Nephew Not Impressed!

I gotta side with your nephew. Don't pull something good apart to build something else. Take a bunch of junks apart to build a custom tractor. Good Luck, Rick
Wait were you just trying to be the crazy uncle that every family seems to have?

I wouldn't have been impressed as well. That looks to be a nice Road King with a 96 engine. Does it have Stage 1 installed?
