Yes I only built one of them however I sold it to a good friend of mine in California. He is starting a bike museum and currently has bought about 20 of my bikes for it. He has over 200 schwinns and many mini-bikes. Not sure what you call them there but they are small motorcycles from the 60's and 70's.

joe the bikes you are on about that we have here are called mini motors.and they have caused a lot of trouble over here,with the police taking them of youngsters driving them round the streets and stuff..i would love to have a look in your friends museum aswell i mean who would love to look at over 200 bikes and loads of mini bikes..

I would be guessing as to how many I have ever owned but probably around 100 or so. I use to just collect and buy and sell whole bikes and I had 45 in the house at one count. Many others were bought and sold and now i may have about 20. I am doing mostly parts and restorations and when I can get an exceptional one I buy it to keep.
