    Turbo Charged Briggs

    Hmmmm....what do you mean by a "box" on the carb? And what about lubrication? Does the oil line hookup on a turbo suck oil into it or is it gravity fed?

    Turbo Charged Briggs

    Hey everyone, so I know there has been a little bit of talk about putting a turbo on a Briggs. However, most of these discussions never got to a conclusive answer so I figured why not try to get to the bottom of this. Here's my simple theory on how it should work (I know there are probably a...

    Maybe you didn't notice :mad2: but I updated my original post and uploaded more photos. Which is why I bumped it because I wasn't sure if just "Editing" my first post would automatically do it for me. And not sure what glasses or LensCrafters has to do with anything here :huh: And I really...

    I don't plan on using a disc brake? Maybe you misunderstood me but I plan on using one of those brakes that clamp the ram not a disc?

    West Coast Chopper Build

    My budget is relatively low lets just say that!! :lolgoku: But I guess I would be willing to spend a little bit more cash on this. And as for your question on how I am going to stop this bike I am installing hand brakes on it. Thanks for the helpful response btw! :thumbsup:

    West Coast Chopper Build

    CO btw. And the laws say nothing above 50cc but snyway I just need to know what I could do to possibly get more HP out of this thing? I mean it's just a bike as well if I have to kind of push myself with my feet on the ground slightly to get started from a dead stop I am completely okay with...

    :lolgoku: As fun as it sounds break the law xD I think I am going to stick with my 2hp xD! But on the serious note if I did remove the governor/adjust it, new exhaust, drilled holes in air filter housing, etc. how much hp you think I can get up to?

    West Coast Chopper Build

    However, I have been running into a dilemma. I bought a 2hp Briggs and Stratton for it. I have a clutch and everything for it as you can see but I need to know how I can increase its horsepower. My clutch has 11t and my sprocket has 62t. I know this gear ratio might be a recipe for disaster for...

    West Coast Chopper Build

    Here is my current progress of my west coast chopper build. I painted it matte black with plasti-dip (besides the parts I plan on welding to and I dont have all the coats on yet that is why it is so uneven). I reupholstered the seat with an old Hurley shirt because the seats "leather" was ripped...

    Is this gear ratio okay?

    I know it's been a while since I have been on here but tell me what you think about using a back sprocket instead with 62 teeth? I had one and made some adjustments to it so that it can adapt onto the back wheel. Or will this still not work? I really do not want to have to use a jack shaft and...

    Is this gear ratio okay?

    I see what you're saying haha I probably wall have to look into a jack shaft. But btw I was not referring to pocket bikes I was referring to little motorized bike kits that people put on mountain bikes (which have tall tires as well). These things use ratios lower like 3:1 with little 49cc...

    Is this gear ratio okay?

    Oops sorry I didn't mean a low ratio lol I meant a high ratio, on a lot of the motor bike kits they run a ratio of like 3:1 or lower. (Sorry for the bad communication lol)
