Built by William Burky of the Singing wheels MC back in the early 60s. This cub is a prime example of adding lightness, just look at all the holes drilled throughout the bike including the brake drums, frame, and brake lever. The theme continues inside the engine with holes drilled in the rocker arms. I havent been in the cam chest but id suspect there to be holes in all the gears as well. Where he couldn't drill holes he just removed parts and bolts. The oil tank is a 12 oz gum out tin bottle with lines brazed into it and secured to the frame with a twist tie. The seat and fender have been cut down. Since I've owned it I've made a couple small changes. The original monobloc carb was unhappy so I've changed over to a 626 concentric, the piston.and rings were wore out and there was an attempt to lap the head to the cylinder in lieu of an head gasket. I installed a 10:1 piston and new rings with a copper head gasket. Really this might be one of the coolest bikes in my collection. Rumor is there is a sister bike out there painted the same colors but it's a triumph 500 twin.
