Default MK85 is mounted and ready to go.

My son spent some if his summer getting this old Honda 90 running. He was it going pretty well. The scabbard is attached to the top bar and the bottom floats so the shocks can compress. I rode it and it is like mine because the rifle makes the steering sluggish. But is will get him into the hunting area.

I actually had a pair of those trail 90's back in the 70's for myself and my oldest boy. Put those suckers in "low range" and they will haul you, a nice deer, pull your truck out the mud, climb a tree, climb over logs, and just about everything else except cut your deer up and put it in the freezer! They may look like a little moped but they actually had some nads.

This scabbard is an older "hunter" brand. It is very thick and ridged.

He is excited to use both the gun and the bike this year. The dirty girl is shooting pretty well and he is enjoying it.

Speaking of bikes - anyone remember those 2 wheelers that had the tires that were as wide as they were tall. They were motor bikes used for hunting and advertised in the back of hunting magazines. I always dreamed of owning one of them as a kid.
