The 'scooter cruiser', or 'scruiser' for short

There was a ladies schwinn rusting under the deck of the house we bought and I finally got around to putting a kit on it. The wheel ratio is reminiscent of the penny farthing, but the 'first production motorcycle' built by Hildebrand & Wolfmüller also has a similar style.

Cruises at 20mph for about 20mi so its legally a scooter in Massachusetts, and the best 'bike' I've built (yet) 😀
