Thank you so much for posting these informative vid's! I'm currently building a 'Hardtail Bobber' and like the fact that I can use these for reference!
probably the best building vid i ever seen you done step by step you told us all the details it was like i can get all the same parts and build it right in my garage following you from my laptop your amazing dude good job you deserve a pat on the back
That sprocket and disc brake idea is innovative and very new to me. It may be even be a noble idea to save weight and extra parts, but I'm not sure how I feel about having to worry about metal shavings and brake dust accumulating on the chain every time I use the rear brake. Not to mention the heat transfer from the friction.
Not sure I like the idea of a sprocket/rotor combo. Generally centrifugal force would theoretically keep any chain lube to the outside edge but if some did on the pads..no back brakes.
Looks wicked, hope you dont mind but i'm designing a 125cc chopper (as atm, thats all i can legally ride ¬_¬) and i've used the general shape of your frame to base it upon :) Love the colour of your frame btw, learnt alot about assembly watching all these vids of yours :)
The rear wheel will lift up, which will push through the frame into the front suspension, which will then push the rear wheel back into the ground. It is light enough that unless you hit a nasty bump going really fast it won't do any damage.
I like the look of a kicker but also like the convenience of the electric start. Call me greedy but I wanted them both and either of them will work. For a couple years Harley also produced bikes with both options.
Um, when the battery is dead, I just get my bike rolling, jump on, put it in gear, let off the clutch and start it that way. If you got a slope/hill somewhere close, all the better. To hell with kick starting.

I agree: sprocket/brake-disc combo looks like a bad idea. How do you keep your chain lubricated?
unless it's an O-ring chain that doesn't need chain oil , maybe a wax every now and again-nice job though!

just out of interest, how well does that rear brake work when the chain's all greased up?
having a rear drive sprocket which also functions as a disk brake just seems to be asking for trouble.
surely you can't be running on a dry chain?

why do you use a kick start transmission but with a turn key ignition? Is it for back-up in case the wires fail? Or am i wrong?
