Amazing but how could they put 70 plus mpg on at 404cc engine. Those dont look like Brembo brakes. + The were 3,600 to 4,000 rpm motors so they needed the displacement to develope tourque and horsepower at a lower rpm. Engines ran cooler and lasted longer due to that. Wanted one ever since I saw one on Father Knows Best. That one you had to lift the seat up on its hinge to get to the rope starter so you could wind the rope around the pulley and pull start it. Don't let the knot clip you in the eye. |

Those do look pretty good for a modernized version but they look a little smaller than I remember. these were pretty neat back in their time. The floorboards were pretty good too, even if you couldn't go around corners fast.  |

Earl,
That looks like the Eagle, similar bike I think it is a hair larger than the Mustang. I also think the Mustang would run circles around the Eagle though.
