Really nice build, you do very high quality work. I'd have personally had to put a bigger front wheel on to even it out, but dang that paint job pulls it together nicely. What is that motor, 22hp? I bet the torque on that thing is awesome.
thats impressive... good job! .. now for the but...the angles are all wrong...shorten the front end so the frame sits parellel to the ground... bigger yokes will mak it look meaner at the front end.. to make it easy on the eyes the seat shuld be changed...
Doesn't look like you knew about "rake and trail" when you designed and built the front end. The trail looks way too long. It must be hard to turn and perform badly at slow speeds and sluggish at higher speeds? Did you rake your triple trees? Have you measured your trail? It should be somewhere between 4 and 6 inches. You can off set your rockers to achieve this. much under 3.5 in. it could develope high speed wobble but as you get towards 6 in and more it will turn hard at slow speeds
@gurn58 None of that will matter as much as the ride itself feeling like a harsh ass-massage; the rear tire will deliver a punishing to the rider's rump at anything over 5 mph. A street tire would have been a much better choice over the tractor tire shown.
Cool man, you must be proud. Nice work on the weld seams and the flush throttle is legit! If more people appreciated the detail rather than bagging you (arclight4507) They would notice those things... Like no front brake but Hydraulic rear brake operated by the flat foot pedal on the right. Parts that can be seen at 4:51, 5:37 and 5:40. Yes maybe the rear tyre was a bit ambitious but that's your personal preference! Keep doing what you do you're good!
Nice but where's the throttle and brake activated from? Also, I would have gone with a much stronger front wheel and front end. You can buy a junk dirt bike or street bike and cut the front end off at the frame and weld it onto your frame.
What type and manufacturer variator did you use? Model number perhaps? I'm learning about variators as we speak so I'd appreciate this information... Thanks
looks good but wouldn’t want to ride it for more then ten minutes. Ridged frame and no shocks on the front end. But still a sweet build. I would at least put a solo spring seat for the bumps.
Very nice job and senor project at UCF. I graduated from the business school. A nice finishing touch would be a video but this was so long ago. Thanks for sharing.
OMFG how long did it take to build it and also when did u come up with a random though *** wait a minute i think i might bulid a chopper from scratch***
Wow! Very impressive work. High quality construction and finish.
We also added a video response (Homekart). Our first try-out was successful. Painting will only be done in the spring after the snow melts here. My son actively participated to the construction, he is 10 yo.
it looks like a snowmobile transmission, im abit of a recluse when it comes to bikes and i wont pretend to know anything! Would someone mind explaining what that band setup was? I mainly see european bikes, and the transmissions never look like that (i.e- a belt on one side connecting crankshaft to...something! and something emerging out otherside to connect to second band to drive wheels!) hope this comment made sence to someone somewhere!
@turtles24601 you see turtles with this kind of set up you have to have a posi trac rimshaft belt connected directly to the inline rotor gerter other wise the kickback from the kanuter flange will throw the timing chain bending all 12 valves thus ruining your life.
@turtles24601 Actually that is a Comet 94 series torque converter which is in deed very popular among snowmobile applications. It can also be used on bikes, go karts, etc. etc, etc.
Looks as heavy as a really bike but with 1/4 the power. LOL! No Kohler makes the best small engines. They used to anyway their 2 cylinder boxxer motors will run forever.
very talented! nice work
