"Double Whammy" Mini Bike Dragbike build

Postby kenny p on Sat Sep 24, 2011 2:38 pm

I bought a Doodlebug Minibike and decided to turn it into a dragbike for the Billetproof Drags this October.
A friend of mine had 2 brand new 6.5 horse engines for sale, so why not?!!!!
I gave myself a two week build time for some of that made for TV motovation, and it worked!
Two engines in two weeks, The "Double Whammy"
Here are some before, during and after pics. Enjoy.

I'll find out October 23rd how fast she goes in the 1/8th.
Even if it turns a slow time, it still pulls like a Freight Train and such a blast to ride!

Thanks a lot guys for the nice comments. It makes all the effort worthwhile.
I wish each one of you could ride this thing, it's just a little minibike that might go 40-50 mph, but when you sit on it and twist the throttle, you feel like your going a hundred on a top fuel bike. :shock: It's a pretty deceiving little bugger when your on it.
Looking forward to the drags in a few weeks, then I can see what it will actually run.
In my opinion, I think it looks faster than it actually is. We'll see soon!
Keep ya posted.

Thanks Again,
Kenny
