A modeling friend of mine sent me this picture... This little bobber is in a museum somewhere, but no other info was available EXCEPT that it is only 13 inches long!!!

It probably weighs less than two pounds!

Check out the seat, springer-fork, reverse, end-pivot euro-levers, functional drum-brakes, wire-wheels, and that INCREDIBLE teensy V-Twin 4-stroke flathead glow-motor!!!

Can you just picture a little Rhesus Monkey in leathers and helmet riding this bomb around your man-cave? I'd LOVE to cruise on this one if it could be enlarged about 600%... LOL! Most every piece of this model had to be made by hand... Somebody who knows their way around machine-tools made a beauty with tis one!

Enjoy!

Wow that's really impressive. I never even had the patience to tinker around with those pre-made model kits you can buy, even the beginner ones! lol

Thanks for sharing, my girlfriend's dad will get a kick out of this.

That little v-twin is awesome.
