That was a great video. I enjoyed that a lot. It looks in really nice shape. Is first gear all the way forward in second gear back? just curious. Thanks for the video.

70 years ago I drooled to own one. Unfortunately it took another 50 years to acquire a 2-wheeled motor vehicle.

🎄💥🎉🎏🎗🎁🎊🎄

Cant blame the rider for not wanting to get a compression fracture of his back riding the old beast. Or as has happened to me hit a bump wrong and getting launched off the snowmobile.

The only exterminator I like personally . Never looked at another EXT and thought . Wow nice sled. But these ones . 👌👌

Man I love your bike! Cushman's understated simple design is timeless

Probably more dependable than the Eagle. 2 speed was great.

Can't where the throttie is or how to control.

Why didn't Cushmans have return springs on kick starter?

I grew up in Morristown, Mn 2 years, 1975-76. I would watch the dirt track races in the summertime it was awesome. Way more entertaining than somebody's big black top fancy race tracks in its own way. It certainly no brickyard 400 or Daytona 500, but that's all the amateurs became professionals they all grew up on these great dirt tracks like this one. I hear they shut it down in 80. Too bad it was a piece of classic Americana that nobody would be hurt by bringing it back

Those were the cats pajamas if you had one of those.

Why not just load it into the bed of yiur truck? Are the new sleds to wide to fit? Last sled I had was a 99 lol so I'm a little out of the loop

Not going to lie, i LOVE the winch idea, never know when you'd need it/ when it would come in handy.

Who sent ?????

Hey my dad actually owns Truckboss. What do you think of it? Any feedback you want to give

I miss mine. 340. Chrome skis, shocks and tank. Cutters on skis. Put stingers and Comet 110C clutch on it. Kalamazoo Kangaroo Klaws. Polished ports. Wiseco Chrome Domes. Wasn't real fast by today's standards but it sounded great and was more fun than I ever deserved.

Thank you! your video was one of the best, more content of that wonderful Cushman with a drivers view and maybe some commentary, about it's history, how cool it is to ride etc... would be fantastic!

Thanks so much for video reminder in my young days my buddy had a good when he go he was hot stuff

We had the same sled new. That Kawasaki engine sound is unforgettable when you are seated at WFO and have tuned exhaust. Thanks for the memories.

how hard is it to remove in the summer? how many holes do you have in the truck? I like the concept but after seeing this... im not sure a sled deck will work for me if its this difficult to install. I have a 5th wheel as well, not that I camp much in the winter but trailer is looking easier to deal with for some sleds. UGH

Had a 50’s Eagle in 1967. Left it under the dorm at Evangel College with the signed pink for the next student that got my room, 😇. I wonder what happened to it? I don’t know if my 2014 Honda Forza 300 will still be running 70 years from now, 🤣

Just bought a Cushman Roadking. How fast can they go?

This summer I’m gonna try and restore my grandpa’s 49 model 54 When he was stationed in Japan after ww2 his base had a couple of cushman model 53 airbornes (they are like the 54 but striped down) and after he got back to the states he bought a 54 with the viramatic CVT and now I want to restore it I am nervous because I’m just trying to figure out everything from the little literature about it that he had and what I could find online about it, but it will be a great experience

Nice vid. How long total did it take to install? How was the Deck delivered? Are you happy with the deck now that you have had it for some time? How is the pickup bed and side walls? Any cracks or is the truck bed and side sill structurally sound?

She’s pretty!

What would you sell it for

Thank you, Jacob. Brings back wonderful memories of wonderful people with their wonderful little children, who made every day a blessing and a joy.

Very good, when I was 12 I had the pacemaker ( 1 speed) I had a transmission but didn't know how to put it in.

Excellent idea! Any reason why you didn't add a block of wood to each side of the platform at the loading end to allow the ramp to lay on top of the platform instead of your tailgate?

Ride it up all that time I would be long gone..if u can't ride it up that ramp u should b on a kitty cat..

How the hell do you shift on this?

You need that winch for a Cat! :) Just kidding, but I had to.

Ride it up

I had a Cushman Eagle in high school, you won't grind the gears shifting into low gear if you stop before you shift. Every time I heard that CRUNCH it was like a bolt of fire right up my spine.

What music is playing? Sounds cool

My Dads Cushman had steel flex pipe that he made into dual exhausts by using a T fitting at the head.

My Dad had the same model since 1957, it was in his garage for years unrestored , not running but complete, my stepmother threw it away when they moved neither I nor my Dad knew it in time.

sounds good

hey Jacob did you race this year,what class do you ride,these look like so much fun I think I might have to drive the 15 hours to do this,im 47 and did my first 2 races this year at timberline ski resort in davis wv,probably the most fun ive ever had on a sled,it was a lot tighter than this,like a hare scramble for sleds a snow hare scramble.talk to you later , god bless, the captain

also how long time wise was it thnx

Can't find it, grind it!

Conn.rod broke 60 yrs ago parts man said torque 1/2 turn before it breaks I now now as mechanic what he meant

Very nice cushman how much did it cost you

How fast does the engine run on these things?

Great looking scoot, I've started collecting the Eagles the past few years. Love the body style on the Road Kings!

Looks like it was a fun course

it is song from band called Moby

I'll be there in march
