How many of you have the stool you started to build. I haven't even got tires bolted to mine and allready I find that I want to modify and upgrade....case in point.....I just bought a honda 250 big red with electric start and high low range as a donor engine...not sure if it will be for this creation or the next but my Barstool was the reason I bought it. I bought plans from mike (which were very helpful) but I am sure at the rate I'm going it won't resemble his at all by the time I'm done. I can't wait till I get days off again (work in remote location) to finish to the stage I can at least ride it. If you guys have friends & family like mine you hear WHY alot....to which I usually answer "why didn't I think of doing this years ago. I don't know."lol To quote a member who I tend to think of as a cross between Tim Taylor and his neighbour Wilson "all of this is an ego exercise". Anyway..... my questions are (1) best idea? (2) worst idea? (3) best change or modification? (4) funniest or most memerable reaction to your creation?........... Thanks for your time........ May the bar be open and the beer be cold. CHEERS

Hey Kid,
Save the engine for your next creation, Why have 1 BSR when you can have 2 at twice the price. I know what a pain it is to modify, so design around the new engine and stool on your next build, finish the first one while planning the second, We learn as we go...
