Hey bro i need some advise im currently working on 2 of this bikes. Video of the projects will be posted soon. What i want to know is i noticed you used original gas tank did you just weld up the corners that need weld? The additional holes @ the bottom of gas tank how did you plug them? did you leave one open for the gas line? & last but not least the 2 bottom screws that hold the gas tank what did you at to them so no gas would speal? Your input would be appriciated.
@chinosgv for the gas tank I drilled holes and welded nuts on to them for the gas nozzle to screw into. I welded up the rest of the areas that weren't welded. I cut the gas cap assembly off the gas can that came with the engine. and welded it on to the top of the gas tank where I had cut a hole. I then grinded it down and used bondo to smooth it out before painting.
@Edgarbopp Thanks for the responsei really needed an idea an im going to do what you mention altough the engine im using will be small & the gas tank plastic ill find a gas tank that i can cut up. once again thank you for your time ill let you know when i post a vide of my project. ohh i saw the brakes you put on yours i must say good job bro. when i need help again ill bug you LOL..
@chinosgv To attach it to the bike again i welded small strips of metal on the bottom of the tank that i could slide hose clamps through to attach it to the bike.
Very nice bike man! I'm in a process of building a stingray could you please tell me what size sprockets you got on the jack shaft and the back wheel. Because i want to have the power and speed of your bike. Thanks
@Edgarbopp hm very nice! can you help me please? how can i know the cc and hp of brigs and straton lawn mower engine that i found? i want to build something like this but i dont know what spockets to put on it and if it could start drive with clutch from 0 kph, or i will need to pull this and sit quickly?! lol idk, i need way to check the power before i put spockets... tnx
@Edgarbopp my rear wheel is 20 inch, and the spocket on it is 36T, i need to buy clutch from ebay but i dont know how to measure "bore", the 2 clutches that i found on ebay are 11T-[5/8] & 12T-[3/4] - idk what i need for the engine... how do i measuring the "bore"? and i dont know good english - crap... how many HP the engine needs that i could ride it?-(I'm - 55KG). i want to build it looks like a dirt bike, you know the front wheel is biger than the rear wheel... please help and tnx!
@Edgarbopp i measured it and its 1 inch.. does 5/8 is 1 inch? , if my bore is 1 inch, is it mean that my engine more than 3 HP? and by the way, what size of chain do you use? i got only the size of my bicycles... what the chain number of bicycles? i mean kids BMX/iron mountain bike(not aluminium) .. Tnx!
WOW, thanks for a great video. Great welding and ideas too. Great looking bike!!! Thanks for riding it and showing us how it performs and sounds!!! Where did you get the Veri (what-cha-call-it) that 2 stage centrifugal thingy-mo-bopper that attaches to the engine crank shaft? Sorry I forget what it is called.... :-D Very professional job!!!
i can't explain or describe how much ass you kick ! boy, that's amazing. wtf do you do for a living? more importantly, where do you live? i have a bike like that, that i'd like you to build up. come on man! don't hoard all the talent!!
what kind of tyre and wheel are you using in the back? I have started building a mini chopper myself but i can't find a tyre and wheel so I can reproduce the chopper look with wide back tyre. What can you suggest as a back tyre? And last but not least how fast does it go?
@kilimand21 try going to ebay and typing in mini chopper tire thats how i found this on. its actually a tire that many people use on golf carts and even mini coopers. the bike goes about 50mph =)
nice bike man :).... i am building a mini chopper my self at the moment, but i am having major problems finding a engine? did u buy a 50cc engine or is it off a lawn mower or some other garden appliance?
Hey there! Nice bike =D I also got an Jesse james bike and thinking of doing some mods... and i need you experiances of welding that bike , is it thick enought? Or will i burn trough? :P
i will posty the video tomorrow tomorrow i had to do a little modification but its coming along. i made my home made motor mount with angle iron then weldedit to the frame of the bike
hey i started my project i couldent find a jesse james bike so i had to go with a occ chopper bike and i think it might actually work i will post video of what im doing in a while but looks like crap right now its in the works though.
what type of welder did you use cuase i got a harbor freight welder 90 amp fluxcore welder and i heard good and bad bout it lookslike you got good welds so i was wounde3ring
@andrewstunna hey man sorry i didn't respond sooner. yes good results can be had from a flux core welder. just remember to use a pull not a push motion. it won't look as good as a mig weld but as long as you turn up the amps and wire speed to the point where you get a nice thick deep penetrating weld it will be just as strong.
dude, do you know where i can find a jesse james bike? bc i want to do the same project with my dad . and do you live in MA cause maybe you could give some tips on building it
what is that shaft that allows it to pull the chain to the other side of the wheel? Thats the only part that is stopping me from putting a gx200 on my mini chopper as well?
