i posted a thread and a poll came along with it. maybe thats why it got no replies. It is concerning a schwinn spoiler series chopper the new one. I would like some help on the question below the poll please if anyone has some advise.

P.S. in 1971 I jumped my Bobby Brady schwinn over 7 friends and a not to steep ramp. friend 7 got a little of the rear tire. thanks, jim

They're a fickle bunch over here in alt bikes. Had you said that you bolted some rusting frames together, and filled the gaps with JB Weld, you would have gotten more responses. Go look at some custom Harley's and lowrider bikes for a bit of inspiration. As far as a plastic motor, forget it. You can add a working motor pretty cheap, if you're so inclined. Are you looking for bolt on stuff, or are you prepared to get some grime under your nails?

Man, that's lame! You asked a question and I gave you a fairly detailed answer and EnigMatic relpied as well. You replied to my reply and I replied to that!

How can that be NO replies? :eek: :rolleyes:

That kind of snivel puppy attitude won't win many points.

Hmmm. He posted first 07-21-05, 03:51 PM, got no response. Started this thread 07-21-05 06:26 PM. He got his first response to thread one 07-22-05, 05:24 AM. So what we have here is impatience on the part of the first party, coupled with a bit of misunderstanding on the part of the second party. What would Judge Judy do?

He'll probably accept your apology about the snivelling puppy...
