It started out as a mid '70's Honda. He added a Yanmar-clone 10HP single. Custom built the frame from behind the fuel tank and front down tube back. He's still working out the clutch setup on it. The reading he did on it said that people were getting around 150 mpg @ 60 mph. He said that his is about 100# lighter and is gear to do about 70 mph. So, he's looking to get something like 170 mpg! He also has a little roots type supercharger to put on it after it's dialed in. Just thing of two Pepsi cans side-by-side! It's the neatest little thing!
