great build

DO NOT use home depot pipe. Use 1 inch TUBE from a steel supplier and a tube bender.

@housewhere hey i been looking at your video for weeks now and it
help me alot but now that im to the point to weld i dont know what type
of pipe you used?you said the one you made out of water pipe bought from
home depot was not good..

If can-am can do it, so can I. Only mines gonna be a motorcycle/sport quad hybrid. ;-

The motor for that one actually came from Dallas. Look on craigslist for a used bender. You can get a 1 inch bender for around $100 if you just keep looking. Its well worth it. You can build a full chassis, wheelie bar, and swing arm with it if you want. Nice tool to have. Hopefully mine will be street legal soon. Im gonna have a guy build me a extended single wheel swingarm and Im gonna register it as a custom built motorcycle.)

I used a makeshift jig system so I could mirror what I did for both sides. If your making something that may break in half at a high rate of speed you might want to put a good weld on it. First one I ever built was very shotty. It was made out of water pipe bought from home depot that was heated with a torch and bent by hand. Worked but wasnt near art work.

i live near dallas and im working on a cbr600-banshee project i have a crappy welder and no pipe bender so far. lol so im kind of hung up. i love your work, do you calculate those bends so the quad is cross balanced or something? pretty badass i couldnt imagine a busa engine, badass vid man
Make some vids of you riding that beast! I want to see it in action.

Soon. Put the project on the back burner for the past 6 months or so but its time to pick back up. Been buying stuff to make it into a quad/ street trike hybrid. I have a single sided swingarm from a sportbike I may use with a Enkie car wheel but who knows. Kinda got bored with the thing after I rode it a few times.

I wanted to build something that couldnt be seen on youtube, replicated, and then claimed as ones own design. I think I succeeded.
