Randy H, Ill hang on to it for a while, i think

NOPE! You can't even get me on the top rung of a ladder. ---------- Post added at 10:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:16 AM ---------- I have looked into the parts and assemblies needed to build something like the Ripsaw. A little overwhelming. But it is one of the coolest toys...

Like this?? Do you mean a 3 wheeled ATV? Interesting.... Mini Bike with a wide axle supporting 2 wheels in the rear? Also Interesting... Mini Bike with 2 rear axles with 2 rear wheel drive?

Finally figured out the attachment part of posting here. Drift Trike Rev A - 24" x 4" Fatty Front Wheel Reverse Trike with Lever Steering prior to engine install. Drift Trike Rev B - 20" BMX front Wheel Youth Kart

ok my issue is not understanding how to post pics. I checked out the sticky on how to do it, but it doesnt seem to work for me.

Great input guys. Maybe I will let this one get away. I will list it for sale as is.

Yes, I agree Great parts. GX200 with 2:1 wet clutch reduction, 1-1/4" live axle with hubs and sprocket, hydraulic disk brakes, seat. And the funkiest motor mount I have come across. Well worth the price paid. ---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:36 PM...

We have dirt bikes, I think the mini bike theme would not be as enjoyable as the ones we have.

I am wanting to build something out of the box, so if you have any ideas, throw them my way and I may start a build with your great ideas Some of my previous builds are: Farm kart Youth Kart Race type kart Drift trike Reverse three wheeler (single rear wheel with lever steering in the front)...

If you haven't guessed yet, I have an old lawn tractor that I have been wanting to steal the engine out of to make some sort of project. The only problem is that I don't know what I want to throw it into.. and it needs some carborator work. They are expensive to order from the dealer. Has...
