Fuckin right on dude! This thing is so fuckin sweet, sorry for the anguage but damn man this thing want's to rip your face off! What a work of art. All your hard work and efforts are paying off in spades my friend. I really am inspired to build my own board tracker. I'm not sure how I'd go about getting it insurable and licenced but other custom builders seem to be able to build and insure about anything. Cheers, IC.
You have a totally fun blog about the build! I followed it as you went along. Great engineer and mechanic! I want to build the same thing. Looking for a used Vanguard motor.
I love the old vintage boardtrack bikes!! This is how I would go about building one except I was looking for a 6.5hp setup. Good choice on the engine and drive!!! How fast did you get her goin?
In-freakin-credible, man! Congratulations. What a milestone in the build. Good job. And it don't sound too shabby either. Sounds pretty good actually.
Great bike

Vanguards are tough engines. Built on the design of the Generac OHVI industrial engine.

now did you you buy the frame an build around it???
smithnigga 2 years ago
No I made the frame from scratch. .120 DOM tubing = overkill.
dmar836 2 years ago
@dmar836 You say .120 DOM was overkill. What tubing would you recommend then? I'm just curious because I plan on starting my build soon..

difficult to build?

Yes.

The engine is a Vanguard V-twin. It's a Comet 40 with centrifugal clutch and variable ratio sheave in back. Hand-built frame. Info is in the blog.
dmar836 2 years ago
What kind of engine is that? Is that a CVT tranny or just a centrifugal clutch? and lastly is that a self built frame or a bicycle frame?
