Things I still need to do:
Find some kind of brake I can mount to the rear wheel. As it is I have come close to wiping out a few times... Almost hit the Sentra once, and the worse part is it would have the opposite side from where the dear hit!
Install a "working" kill switch.
Mount the speedometer and the fenders etc.
I got 3, 2 mile runs this morning. I am trying different settings to see which is best for this area. 2nd and 3rd notch down on the needle seem awful rich, but am afraid to lean it out any more until it is broken in.
In my 25 years of messing with radio control I have ruined a couple of engines by running them too lean and hard before they were ready. And those were quality OS Japanese engines, not this low quality Chinese stuff.
I still want to get a larger sprocket. I don't need to go more than 20 mph, and besides, I feel a lot safer going 75 on my
Suzuki then I do going the top speed on the GV.
I've had so much fun with this build I am starting to price a honda motor and Tadpole trikes... I think that would be a great combination.
