Man that little bike is quick. A bike anyone would be proud to ride!

Hi Punkakslar,
I have some questions and would like your advice.
How did you relocate the foot pegs and shift pedal? I REALLY want to do that for my rebel so bad! And also, I removed the air box and replaced it with a pod filter and chopped off the pipes and did my re-jetting. But should I increase back pressure, or restrict air filter flow, or anything to optimize engine performance? I can't figure out how you made power to do wheelies on them it's phenomenal!
Greatly appreciated!

Left side kicker, how did you do that?

I watched this and your wheelie video my mind is just baffeled. it makes no since.
I like it though.

Thats what I do - check out my blog (you'll have to search it, but its got some good info) as I am planning to do a complete writeup on the Honda Rebel Kickstart Conversion in a few days or so. Hugh's HandBuilt

The engine cases are the same, the side covers have all been modified from stock. The electric starter has been removed, and the side cover chopped and welded to look stock.

Just converted a 97' using some CM parts, so I know a 97 can be done :)

WOW.... the bike seen run pretty fast

such a sweet bike im 14 and looking to get a rebel theyre freakin sweet, how many cubic centimeters and horsepower?
I can't tell if the guy let out the clutch too quickly resulting in the quick-lurch that he got upon starting the bike, or if youtube glitches everytime at 00:12 seconds.

Yeah, I dumped the clutch. With all the shaved weight and 2-1 pipes/ported head, this thing is a little hotrod. It'll burn the tire for about 2ft if you are really abusing it. Which I do :)

Not sure, and not sure... Haha - Seriously though, I can pick the bike up from the tail and under the handlebars if I've have my wheaties that day... Power wise, who knows since the base level is like 17HP or something like that, so maybe 21-24HP? I have no idea. Its fast and fun, thats all I care about...
