That old heavy Sting ray bike had about 5 extra pounds of welds. I broke it several times jumping things.
My brother & I built a motorized bike from his bike. We did not know how to figure out the brakes or a clutch so we had to just kill the engine to stop and use engine braking to stop. The funniest thing was we kept breaking the bikes drive hub. We would go to a old Japanese bike shop and the owner was amazed. He would ask "how you Haole boys break that? I have never seen one broken." one week later we were back after breaking another one. We never told him he had a 3.5 hp motor on it.
