this is the part where i lost motivation i really didnt want to grind all the welds on the tank and start buying all the little stuff if you notice there is no chain tensioner witch i like cus the one that comes with the kit seems dangerous
so 6 months later i found some motovation and finished all the fab work and sealed the tank it runs now and i got the front brake drum working good ,after tuning it for a day and runing it for a while i felt it was good to go so i went for a long ride and about 2 miles into my ride gas started poring out of the back of the carb so i got it back home tor the carb apart and their was a hunk of metal floating in there but what do you expect from a 200$ engine kit. this is how it sits now just need to put a new throtel on it and paint it
Man that is a sweet ride!!!
Yeah,Man :!: That looks fun 8) 8)
dash said:starting on the tank, the filler neck is gas pipe you can get from the hardware store and is a lot cheaper than a real one
i don't know why, but i think it would look cool if you put a light/weak spring over the end of it :shock:
like that comes just up to the bottom of the threading just touching the bottom of the cap when tightened.. i donno, what you think? :wink:
