just a quick vid of my motorbike Chelsea being ran. She has no weight on her, the chain hasn't been put on, so it's putting out a couple hundred more RPM's than usual

Thanks! I've enjoyed every minute of this build, amazing how far it came from the original bike. I think my exhaust gasket didn't seal correctly last time I put the exhaust back on. I'll be fixing that tomorrow and uploading the updated video of the "non-exhaust-leak" engine xP I expect a nice putter
And the color is just Rustoleum's Maui Blue, It's gorgeous in the sunlight
 
Outstanding young man!
I love the springer fork. What engine is that?
 
Thankyou, a guy on this forum sent me that leaf spring
Its a Tecumseh H35, 153cc 4 stroke, 3.5hp. Used on tillers in the 80's and early 90's. They also made a few version's for Go Karts, which is what this is. Only difference is the Exhaust placement. Great motor, runs strong. Just cranky to start up, notice the smile? I was happy it actually started. xD
 
That's a solid engine, bit heavy for my tastes. They
can be cold blooded. try giving the carb a shot of
starter fluid,(ether). It should fire right up.
