Decided to make this for some reason.
Before and after paint on the fender and gas tank cover.
Note that I did not polish the chrome with steel wool on the before pics.
For those just tuning in: got this for $200 and it runs great.
One mans junk is another mans treasure.
It looked better before.
If you’re being serious about your opinion, the camer gives the first paint too much justice.
I mean it really looked like crap before…
It did blend in with the chrome frame, but I wanted a candy green dragon chopper…sure it’s not that, or close to it, but it’s getting there.
I possess not the capability to hate you as much as I want.
now it’s a green cock rocket, congratuwelldone

You’re family history in 4 words?
So Puulaahi is, literally, family history?
Dude, if you start a “project” like this, at least be thorough… your horn (assuming thats a real one) is still the same red as the flamejob used to be.
I have already soaked it in brake fluid twice, so most of the paint has scraped off with my finger nail already.
And I am going to paint the air filter as well (it was also painted red)
A project isn’t done in one day/week.
You should have considered other color schemes
for example:
– black matte frame instead of chrome and orange (or read) body – these colors look badass on anything
– chrome frame and pink body (^_^)
– rainbow!!!! and a picture of a unicorn on the tank
– invisible (I’m pretty sure that’s a color… ninjas use it all the time)
– blue and yellow
– red
– everything black and white skulls scattered all over the body parts
and so on
The frame is chrome (no point in painting over 95% good chrome)
My favorite color is green.
It’s perfect IMO
omg i didnt realise green was ur favorite colour, thx 🙂
OMG!!! That is so freaking cool! Where did you buy it? I want one too.
Nice uid
I bought it from a guy on craigslist for a substantially lower price than it would have cost new.
They sell for $600+ on the website.

Correction: The Scooter Boy Reigns. Only not very comfortably. Look at the seat.
I’m more impressed that you were able to make one image out of all that. I know it’s the Internet version of scissors & glue time in kindergarten, but still. You should get an extra cookie or something.
Hey, for Case, it’s pretty complicated shit.
I am in no way impressed with this little project–either in your choosing it, or in the final outcome. I do have to give props to the, “one man’s junk,” comment. Back in the 60’s, my dad specialized in turning beaters and junkers into streetrods. If you enjoy that kind of thing, move on to vehicles that are worth your time.
Well first of all, everyone is subjected to their own hobbies and likes.
I happen to have wanted one of these for a while.
Secondly, my dad has thrown out tons of shit, including, but not limited to, an original beach cruiser Schwinn frame (the ones they make the beach cruisers out of) and a ton of my complete bikes that were all rideable.
But in this case, the guy was probably just tired of the chopper and didn’t know how easy it would be to shine it up with steel wool and paint it.
I rarely have free time. This is just a small hobby of mine, that’s all.
I’d still rather have a vespa.
This is a TOY, not a vehicle you can legally ride to get you somewhere.
Don’t confuse the 2.
1st you are a douchebag
2nd that is a waste of 200 bucks, you could have gotten yourself some charm lessons instead.
1. It’s not wasted if I turn around and sell it for more than I paid/invested.
2. I don’t need charm lessons, I have a smile that could kill.
I don’t care how you paint it, this thing is weapons grade homo.
Thanks. That really means a lot to me.
HOLY SHIT I DON’T CARE
HOLY SHIT WHY DID YOU POST THEN?
“One mans junk is another mans treasure.” this alone made me smile 🙂 dude , you can treasure my junk anytime , whatever floats yer boat
I just realized that it’s pretty gay to make sexual advances towards other men. (what you’re doing)
Yet you probably call people fag in real life.
Quite ironic.
That shit is so gay. Buy a real bike and get a Harley.
I’m not a 50 year old pervert in a mid life crisis
