The Pentagon Bolt

Well one of the problems I had with the Tessy was the original bolt that held the kick starter on was missing when I bought the scooter.
Someone had stuck a bolt from the hardware store in to replace it and it hardley worked. I tried to use a modified clevis pin which worked well for a short time but quickly failed.
Anna was able to find an original and get it to a machine shop to have some replicas made. Wow the set up fee was huge!!! She had 5 made at a cost of over $200 US dollars. So the price per bolt was quite high. I thought only the Pentagon paid that kind of money for simple things LOL :-)

Today was a warm winter day so I went to the garage and installed the kick-starter.



And then I started her up!!!! (VIDEO)
