Here's a little project I've been working on. It's one of those Walmart Razor Scooters. It was the Granddaughters, and the big kids (adults) broke the rear wheel. Well she got a new one because it wasn't her fault it broke. I got this one. It was pink. I completely disassembled it down to the bare frame. I ordered a new rear wheel from Monster Scooter parts. I lowered the front end about 2". I repaired some cracks in the front plastic with a soldering iron, and some bondo. I removed the chain guard and brackets. We don't need to be safe. I regeared it with the sprockets from an old Walmart 10 spd bike I found at the curb on trash night. I used the smallest sprocket from the rear cluster on the motor, and the smallest sprocket from the front two sprockets on the rear freewheel. I had to do some machining to make it work. It now uses the bicycle chain too. I had to clearance the motor plate to clear the chain. The handle bars are cut down from another old Walmart BMX style bike. I also cut the original goose neck and welded in one from a bicycle so I could use the bars. The skull on the front is from the dollar store, it's Styrofoam, and they sold them at Halloween. I cut it in half, and glued it to the front where the fake headlight went. I smoothed it out with Bondo. The paint is from a spray can. The tan is called evaporator cooler tan from ACE hardware. The black and white speed stripes are spray can too. I made the license plate holder from sheet metal, and made the license plate on the computer. I haven't been able to ride it on the pavement yet, but I think it'll be fast! It sounds fast sitting on it's stand when you fire it up. The wife's not happy. Said I better wear a helmet.
Here's what it started out as,
Here's what it looks like now,
Not sure if I like the sticker, but it's on there now,
Skulls on the handgrips too, but hard to see here,
