PK50XL2 for the missus & courtesy visit to Rivals Kristiansand

Since the previous PK was beyond salvage, and a buddy of mine was in need of some transportation of a newly procured Smallframe from Kristiansand to Stavanger, I felt obligated to help.

It takes 3 hours by car to drive to Kristiansand, but hey; this was a great opportunity to visit some old scooter buddys from the Rivals. And, if I was lucky I might just find a scooter of my own to transport home.

And yes. I found a 1994 PK50XL2 in pretty good shape, perfect object for tricking the missus into scootering. More of that later.

This is what it looked like at Svein's from Rivals:

Chicken anyone?


Understatement...


Piece of rust - eh correction - ART!


Spectacular details on this Lammy...


Somebody's collecting scooters...


You can't even take a pee at Svein's without hitting a Lammy...


Work in Progress...


And. This piece of work is going to become the WORST Lammy EVER.



This is a Monster. "I eat Harleys for breakfast!"


We can't wait to see this on the road!

So. The red smallie is for a buddy of mine, Torleiv, and the white PK is for my missus.

But wait, there's more! A late order: A 90 Racer for Øyvind.

Thanks for the Smallies & a great roadtrip!

As every scooter of mine, the PK50XL2 has got it's own blog. Follow the upgrades and status of this here. (And if you wonder why I have separate blogs for the scooters: The blog follows the scooter when sold. Thats why. )

PK50

Acquired my first PK50XL some days ago. The scooter was advertised for spare parts, without a pink slip. Color? It just happened to be RED. It's a curse.

Borrowed the Transporter from work, excellent for hauling scooters...

got the scooter back home.

I added some fuel and kick started the scooter. Voila. Liftoff, for a few seconds.

Desireable XL fork.

The scooter was dismanteled for parts as the scooter was beyond salvage.
