    New springer build

    Well after doing cart wheels in two races this year in the Bumpkin II the wife says I need a more stable machine. I feel it is a little too light for open wheeled competition and needs to be stretched out. This will of course require more hp which will be supplied by an Artic Cat 550 liquid. An old racing buddy gave me an old stretched Attex style frame years ago so I dragged it out of the barn and will modify it into the Bumpkin III. Do any of of you old time racers recognize this frame?
    It had a front mounted motor with the t-20 behind it and a 4 chain set up with 1 1/4" axels. It may have been put into a rim body. I think I will use the original Country Bumpkin set up with this one. I'll post more pics as this progresses along.

    Outstanding! Can't wait.
    Stuck in the seventies- not in the swamp.

    (6) Attex, a Hustler, a Super Swamp Fox, (2) Tricarts, (3) Tri-sports, a Sno-co trike, 3 Dunecycles, and a Starcraft! ...so far

    Sorry to hear about the CB II. Will watch the new build look forward to seeing CB III
    Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways , cigar in one hand, whiskey in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!!"

    Hi Dave,
    I am looking forward to another great racing season. Will the Bumpkin III have a warp drive setting?!
