Really, it is. I swear.
Anyways, Sup guys! Kind of new here. Im just a kid that likes building bikes. I cant say im the best at this, but it sure is fun learning. I'm also not much of a typer. So this is gonna be short and sweet.
Basically what I'm starting with is this 1950's Columbia frame. built for 26 inch wheels. I got this Ryobi 31cc tiller for free and it ran. I decided to rip into it and start mounting it on this bike. IT wont be much power im sure, but its a good entry level engine to start messing with. I will probably go to a 5 horse briggs later on once I learn to weld.
So my goal with this bike is speed. Its not gonna be any acceleration machine, just speed in the far end of the track, ya know?
I just started it yesterday so its not hooked to the wheel yet. Im gonna have to do some wheel mods to get it to spin correctly. As the engine spins reverse.
Comparing this bike to the others on the forum makes me feel more and more dumb. But I promise you it will get there!
Did I mention its a rat? Well, it is.
