sorry for the super delayed response :) Just wanted to let yall know pics will be coming... we got it up to 24V and within two runs in high grass my son blew out the stock motor. I was also wrong about the new motors, they arent the Titan 550's they were the 775's :D My LHS unfortunately...

Aren't you on the Power Wheel forums too? I think I recognize the name lol :) I know i recognize the website lol

Yea, I thought about the gear box issue. I have a few spares laying around, but hopefully before i will need to use them I will be able to install a variable speed control on the pedal :P And Yes. It IS useless without pics. Consider it a teaser until I am able to get back out there and take...

So my Daughter came to me last year, (6 years old) complaining that her barbie power wheel was slower than her brothers (2 years old) So I did the only natural thing a dad can do: Made it go faster :) Last year we added an additional 6 volts to the power supply. Now she has outgrown it so we...

I am planning on it, yes, I haven't had a chance to get out to the garage i am working on it in for a few days

The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 3 characters. lol.

Update :) Finally! Drove a good 6 hours today round trip to pick up a scrap KZ400; has everything I need ( except exhaust pipes which I will fabricate ) Taking the family to the zoo today ( well after I sleep lol ) so Wednesday we are going to get started. Step 1) Sand and clean down the...

There have been quite a few suggestions; may I suggest we have a mod move all of them to a single thread and open up a voting system?

LOL! I was totally about to defend the stance of keeping old threads alive, and how it does have its benefits, but the third paragraph into it I talked myself out of it :P So I deleted my philosophy and posted this instead :D

Love the idea of a crest, it adds a real level of class, but IMO color needs to be added, as well as shading. Maybe for the graphics have smaller graphics of 4 stages of building, the first picture maybe a blue print, and each sequential graphic taking the next step in the process, with a 5th...

My favorite experience: Firestone. I took my Eagle Talon there a few years back (its been since sold) to have new 17" rims put on it. Honestly I could have done it myself but I had just bought them and was leaving town in a half hour and really, really wanted to show them off, and didn't have...

I have a feeling this is coming... Use Google Chrome and press the nifty little button at the top, "Translate to English" I couldn't help myself lol

Thanks, you may very well end up with some PM's from me once I have the chassis modified to fit the bigger engine. Its great to know someone else has a similar setup to what I am doing... Please tell me that thing flew with the kz400 :)

Thanks, toystory! But I no longer need to go this route; the more i looked into it i found that this probably is not the best idea for my first project, so i expanded my search, and am I glad I did! I found an entire parts bike on craigslist, a good two hour drive, but has everything i need...

I have been having a horrible time finding any decent priced carb for my kz400 engine, and am at a standstill until I do :/ My local scrap yard has one that they say "might work" but they want 250.00!! With that being said, is it possible to take a carb off of something else and use it? If so...
