looks kinda like dirtbike riding, what exactly is the point of strapping an engine to a mountain bike? these bikes are cool, dont get me wrong but i think a dirtbike would be better for what your tryin to do
@jmsmessner You're very right, and I have several dirt bikes now. This was just the little bike that got me to drivers ed when i was 16. those were some good times!
Taco time? It was still running! Cool. Glad you are ok. Get rid of the can opener and get a spring tensioner, then run the chain just short of tight, letting the spring take it up. That will cut out the vibration and keep it from derailling. Also, you might need to file the tops of the teeth a little or bevel the gear. Good luck. I would like a mtn bike better than my beach cruiser
I know, the parts you get with the kits just suck. I think they deberately soften the parts. It's just funny after you quit useing the chump Chinese parts things quit breaking. I replaced all the mounting bolts with American metric threaded bolts that were the same specs as grade 8..none of them have failed. :p I've taken out the chain because the motor mount broke. I saw a nice setup here on utube, welded mound using band clamps for the rear mount.
Nice! I love to take mine off road.. Granted I had the same part fail.. The Bolt just snapped in half!! Yeah.. a bolt... Got some jank mettle straps keeping it mounted now.
I think it's fun just to see how far I can push it till it breaks again!
Dude-funny cool video! You have one of the top-three motorbike extreem action videos on here. I actually felt like I hadent wasted my time watching. Well done.
