Another street legal 420

[vegasboy]

How's it going guys, just wanted to show you what I've been up to lately. I lost count and how many versions of these I've built. However I believe this one too be the best yet. Even though I say that about every other build Current gearing allows for almost 60mph, I'm going to hop up the motor a little bit nothing major.

Thats pretty darn cool...

How does it drive??....
Does it lag a bit not having a transmission,Or good for what it is???
What is your gearing?

It drives fine. They're gearing is 10 tooth clutch, 24 inch tire and a 60 tooth rear sprocket. The clutch kicks in about 20 miles per hour and pulls decently just shy of 60. The only mods I've done is bypass the governor. Acceleration needs a little work, that is why I'm going to mod the motor a bit more. The bike is not light and neither am I. I've gotten 70 mph out of a 420 before, which you can find that build on this forum. the problem with these motors is if you're going to put them on the street it's hard to have your cake and eat it too with acceleration and top-end.

If only 4 wheeled vehicles were as easy to register as motorcycles. Michigan makes it almost impossible to do anymore.

In Nevada I start off with a street legal frame that has already been registered in Nevada. So that's what my insurance and registration goes off of. However it's only liability, full coverage wouldn't work LOL. After I build the bike I make sure that I follow all of the NRS statutes concerning mirrors, mufflers, fenders, brakes, seating position headlight, taillight, brake light,even a license plate light. Plus I have a motorcycle license and wear a helmet. And that pretty much keeps people off my back
