This impressed me!! And I do not impress easy!!

I went to buy a bike today, and it was at the home of a friend of the owners. This kid was in his early 20's, and into mopeds. There were mopeds everywhere. People were even bringing their mopeds to be worked on. I was talking to the kid waiting on the owner of the bike to get there. He told me he wanted to show me something I had never seen before. Since I have been to two rodeos, and a goat roping I thought I had seen it all. When I went into his basement work shop, I was surprised!!! I had never seen anything like it. A two cylinder moped. He had joined two 49cc moped engines together. He was in the process of tearing it apart, for a rebuild, but here are some pictures. Also the moped in the back ground is his racing moped (yes they race mopeds), and it has been clocked at 67 MPH. He had the engine off it on the workbench rebuilding it, so no pictures of it together. But I am impressed!!!
