A Few Rack Mounts To Hit The Road. Thanks to the GEBE kit sale from member "larymor" my mountain bike made the switch to MB. My other mountain bike felt left out, so I decided to try out the Staton friction drive also. Im getting ready for the friction mount install. Ill have to swop out the rear tire to a smoother tread. Ive been reading tons in the rack mount section for a few months learning. Im going to have to gain experience before I can post or give any advise though. So far so good!
Here's a couple of pics of my happy time build. The details are as follows. Disk hub sprocket adaptor, Through frame throttle cable ( to make it fit). Apart from new gaskets and a cut down pipe mod all is stock. its great fun on a bmx track. Its a tight fit into the frame, i had to dent the top tube to get the spark plug to fit. to change the spark i have to loosen motor mounts and rotate it out to clear the frame. The other interference was the air cleaner so had to make a temporary one till i can get on to doing a better job of it. Then i will do a rear brake ( not that i'd use it, for other peoples sake really). I prefer less cables running around so theres no rush to do that though.
I've finally got the 4-stroke running sweet. Tried a 44t sprocket - fast but useless on hills. The 56T was too slow and not that good on hills either so finally I've settled for a 48T sprocket which cruises fast on flat but I have to pedal hard on hills - sometimes very hard! The 50cc just hasn't got pulling power on hills but I still gets to most destinations in 40% of the time the HT 70cc took. I tried the big tank and then went back to the old HT tank cos it's prettier. Looks are important to me and I ride alone along lovely lonely roads hanging my leg out on corners and making Ducati burble noises with only the cows laughing at me. The long silencer was a good buy and it sounds like a 4-stroke. The gearbox is behaving well with...
Hi all, I introduced myself over here, thought I'd take a bit of time and introduce you to my more-or-less continuous R&D powered bike project. This nuttiness has been going since about 2002. TourSleazy (TS) is so named because it is inspired by the TourEasy LWB layout but built mainly out of junk. It started life with solid suspension front and rear, but when my knees complained, TS sprouted a Honda G100, 97cc sidevalve engine. Riding the bike in its early human powered configuration dictated that rear suspension was necessary to cope with marginal roads at high speeds (for a bicycle, that is). I cut up a junked MTB with a cantilever rear suspension and grafted that into TS's frame. There's numerous ways to transmit drive to the...
This will be my first bike that I have made for this Fourm. Its a 80cc(65cc) with a pull start and a centrifical clutch. Modified muffler and front mount. Better Pictures are here. Had it out today and it runs great. Its around -2C so i am going out for only 20 mins at a time. Pictures are below. By the way I built this myself, no help and being 17 Im proud!! Also the Pipe just has ducktape cuz I forgot to attach the mufler till today and nothing is open. http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg290/mcmullin_4555/100_0124.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg290/mcmullin_4555/100_0123.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg290/mcmullin_4555/100_0122.jpg http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg290/mcmullin_4555/100_0121.jpg...
I haven't done much yet - but a few weeks ago I got new handlebars - today I picked up a new hairpin spring seat that is smaller than the stock saddle that comes on the NE5. I also picked up a generic gloss black rack. I figure I couldn't go wrong at $12 for the rack. I went with black instead of chrome because the fenders are chrome and I am waiting for my 24 x 3 cream colored tires to come in (they shipped 26"ers by mistake). Oh, I also took the chain guard off to how I liked it - and I dropped the handlebars a bit more. I am debating on getting a black rear fender and doing away with the front chrome one altogether when I get the cream tires - I'll experiment and see what I like best. My wife exclaimed tonight - "There you...
Here are Two Titans Dueling it out in the Heart of USA. The guy in the white tee shirt "me" has the 36T, and the Camera man has the 44T. Looks like the 44T has it on Acceleration, but the 36T has it on top end .. Wow!! About 3 mins long is this Video. Enjoy the ride.. Dueling Titans !!:cool: http://www.thatsdax.com/DUELING_TITANS.html

I've almost got my bike running! I got a 49cc 2-stroke gasoline engine (not sure who makes it, but its not like the whizzer clones that I see on this forum a lot). It has an electric start and I've yet to put on the drive train and fuel tank. I had to custom make my mount, and I learned how to weld to do that(you can see my first welds I've ever done on the mount itself :-) I decided to put it together when I decided it'd be cheaper than getting a nice scooter or driving my t-bird back and forth between school and home. Heres what I have done so far, hope you guys like it! Sean Sage http://picasaweb.google.com/sts70004/MyBike?pli=1
I've had this bike and the parts around a year now and hadn't put it together due to health problems. It is for sale, I need the money badly. I wanted to share these pics with everyone here. It is for sale for 1400.00 but will sell it for 1300.00. I have not marked up ANY of the parts and bike over what I paid. I will make around 165.00 total. I easily have over 20 hours of labor into the bike. I repacked the rear coaster brake hub and front hub on this new bike (with no miles) with Mobile 1 sythetic grease. I hope it will sell soon. Road testing is complete. I hope you enjoy the pics. BRAND NEW MOTORIZED KUSTOM KRUISER ROADSTER equipped with DDM GP420 motor (41.5 cc two-stoke (40mm bore, 33mm stroke) performance machine.

I've been building MB for a few years now, but i'm not using the 80cc engine kits that most people are. I'm using the 49cc engine out of the pocket bikes. I'm about to start my new project which will be a chopper, i will replace the rear wheel with a huge one, measuring 20cm wide, also i will use the 110cc 4 stroke LIFAN engine. i will keep you all up to date once i get all the parts . Enjoy my pics a videos Cheers Muzza http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDeip37nNKQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJDBF-f6bkg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjJoGuQ0JoY http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcP6nmc31s4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93l826PyRS0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnFhjVug0sI
Hallo I bulild this bike this week. Longer fork: MBc Edited: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f211/ktbike/chopper/DSC01679.jpg Head angle: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f211/ktbike/chopper/DSC01681.jpg trying to make the motor fit http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f211/ktbike/chopper/DSC01694.jpg black paint: http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f211/ktbike/chopper/DSC01695.jpg Almost finished, just som fineadjustments. I have run it for around 1km and it was ok. The engine had i allready used on a other bike. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f211/ktbike/chopper/DSC01697.jpg http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f211/ktbike/chopper/DSC01696.jpg
I have about 200 miles on the new Tanaka 32. It is a blast to ride. I ride 20 miles to work round trip. Takes about 10 mins longer than in my truck. I had to upgrade the killswitch to one I got at motorycle shop. It has a ground wire and works great. The rear fender works real well..pics can be seen here http://s266.photobucket.com/albums/ii270/highball_album/
Finally got my schwinn finished. Afew slow downs along the way. The motor did not fit between the front and seat post well so I attached to front tube and made a mount for the rear. After I had it mounted I found my chain was about 6 inches too short so off to TSC for a 10 ft chain. I had found some slightly used wheels and put new tires on it. The handle bars are Longhorns with a springer. I had to cut the seat tube off because of the rust and just could not get it out. Cut it off and made brackets for front and under springs in the back. Handles a little shacky but fun to ride. During start up it fired right up and only minor carb tuning had it idleing fine. Makes a bit of gear and chain noise but I guess that is normal from what I...
