New guy from south-central PA

[Keystone Motorsports]

Hello all. My name is Doug. Im from the central Pennsylvania area and also lived in very northwest Vermont for a while. I love to break stuff, been doing stuff with engines and metal fab for a few sears, starting with mower modifications and builds then working my way to doing minibike stuff, and more recently motorcycle dealios. I've lurked around for a while (actually ordered some of the new stickers when they were announced) and figured I would finally sign up to give me another outlet to archive my minibike builds and stuff that I normally wouldn't post on the ATLTF.

Anyways, here are some of my more recent builds (pics below):

-Craftsman II modified for offroad (flipped it over and parted it out)
-Baja DB30 swapped to a modified Predator 212 - more mods upcoming
-Baja MB200 swapped to a modified Predator 212 (brought it to Haspin Acres and screwed up the tensioner, only after eating a belt :/ )
-Gravely 1238H being paired with a Craftsman GT6000 and powered by a modified Predator 420 (current project)
-1980 Yamaha XT250 with a rack I custom made (wrecked :'( )
-1972 Honda CB175 being rebuilt into a scrambler-type bike (current project)
-1982 Honda Odyssey frame powered by a 500cc Honda V4 from a 1984 Honda Interceptor (upcoming project)

Also have plans to make a gas-powered cooler using parts salvaged from my job and the "original" Briggs 205 off the DB30.

Hope to stick around and update something soon!

There's a secret club?

Yea I love em. The DB30 leaves some to be desired but I have plans to either make it worse or fix it next year. Tried selling it with no luck this year so figured I might as well make the most of it and hang on to it since I'm so far invested into it. Trying to hunt down more of varying body styles and starting a collection of 40+ MPH minibikes but it seems like everyone wants box store prices for junkyard bikes. They're just too fun. Actually did about a 16 mile ride on both minibikes in March with a friend. Was pretty rough lol.
