1978 Mongoose Motomag

1978 Mongoose Motomag build. I used restored and NOS parts on this one. Most of the parts on this bike were from my '77 shorty I parted out. It's sitting on my NOS Motomag II's in the factory freewheel version.

Re: 1978 Mongoose Motomag

Mongoose never did a green, besides it probably would look weird having a green Motomag!?

I see him saying "fire engine red daddy" LoL ;)

Re: 1978 Mongoose Motomag

Keith, is that you and the Missus talking here? Awesome...

My wife is too afraid to go online and talk to me publicly about my Mongoose obsession! She'd rather give my grief behind closed doors. LOL!

BTW, you may have seen it already, but I built a "Custom Goose" for her just to keep the peace. Funny, she also thought green would be cool and chose that color for her "Girl's Mongoose". Go figure...

Here she is checking it out:

A "Squonk" is like a Mongoose only much harder to find...
