Well I got up at 3:30 this morning picked up a friend and took a trip to get the scooter. We got there just after 9:00, got home at 4:30. Here are a couple pictures of it I got a set of seals for it and will pull the flywheel off to see if it is just the key, I think I may have one that will fit and if the crank is not damaged, it should be an easy and cheap fix. I just wanted to sat Thanks to Lou for letting me have it. ha ha ...I picked up one of those Roketa 250s for FREE also, it had some cosmetic damage so I painted it like this then sold it.

Disabled is a state of mind. I have what appears to be able bodied people coming in to the clinic on an almost daily basis wanting to get papers signed for disbility. Then I had a patient in the early 70's that was a polio victim and spent all her time laying on her stomach, she could talk and move her right hand. She had a full time job as a dispatch operator. She also smoked like a train, that is why she was my patient.

How did he come up with that effect on that paint job ? I kinda like it. How come a lot of these old threads never have an ending ?

the rust effect paint job was air brushed I spent about 50 hours on it, it would have only taken me about 10 in younger days. I cant hold the airbrush for too long now as my hands are very weak. ( transparent yellow, red, orange, brown, an black was layered to create the rust look. it is very easy) ken

But when your disabled you get to do what YOU want to do. Not someone else's bidding.
