anouther mini chopper

[robin]

i dient like the last one it turned out to big and cumbersome for my liking
i started a new one yesterday and ime going to make it nice its going to be set up like a speedway bike no geers just a clutch then i can ajust the clutch to stop it sliping hopfuly ime aiming at about 45mph as the seats gona be low and it will seem faster

some pics so far i had to stop becuse it started raining

ime also fed up of cuting everything with a hacksaw lol

 

[robin]

not sure wether to make a mini bike or keep it how it is with the red paint

That is looking great! I can imagine that with someone on it, it must look like Burt Munro on his motorcycle!

 

[2or3wheels]

My god that looks crazy, how many HP?

i was thinking that to after siting on it ime going to make it like a minimoto then if its to insane ile make it into a mini bike its a 8hp with the governor removed on my last chopper i was geting 60mph and the engine was onleay doing 4500rpm
so it was probs pushing out about 10hp ive got a bigger motorcycle carb on it and straght pipe

No, no, no....
You've got it all wrong. You can't have mini moto or a crotch rocket with ape hangers! That would be like a Jaguar with bike wheels! You can't do that, what he has on there looks great. You know, down low, and fast looking.

 

[2or3wheels]

Do da apes.

 

[GoAlterBridge]

Alright 2or3, I guess Daddy is going to have to take you behind the shed and teach you a lesson..... Go get a stick.
lol Just kidding. But seriously, have you EVER seen a mini moto or crotch rocket with ape hangers? I just think it would ruin the effect, that's all.

ime keeping the stock handle bars as i cant find eny tubing and it keeps the frame small made a seat ime not hapy with it but its functonal and shid look ok when painted ime thinking light blue with hamerrite gold

 

[GoAlterBridge]

Thank-you SO much for relieving me of my worrying. I couldn't sleep I was so worried you'd use the ape bars. lol Just kidding. I am happy that you're keeping the bars the way they are now, though.

got it going today without the clutch it was a case of getting somebody to push me and go i dent go very fast because well i dint have eny foot pegs ant it was kinda hard to balance. i was trying to start it on my owen and when it did it kinda went of on its owen it fell over and smashed in the pull start cover jamming the fly wheel its not very fast i thk just tones of tork cant w8 till ive set up the clutch ,an give it some revs then dump it i think it will flip probs haha

 

[GoAlterBridge]

Still sounds cool though.

 

[my_mini_bike]

get some ape hangers. i would look awsome. if u got ape hangers it wouldn't be a pocket bike, you would be leaning back with your arms in front of you. me and 2or3wheels both agree.

 

[Crabapple]

No keep the stock bars, and keep it like that.

 

[GoAlterBridge]

Thank YOU Crabapple! At least I have somebody on my side!

 

[russo2]

ape hangers on such a small bike would look just plain retarded
u need a chopper bike look for ape hangers 2or 3
ur dumb

 

[kibble]

This is getting funny... I think daddy (GoAlterBridge) is gonna have to get his stick and take the two boys behind the shed and teach 'em a lesson about ape hangers. Btw, I'm not on anyone's side. LOL

 

[GoAlterBridge]

Thanks russo, one more added to my side. kibble, if you join in on this, please, go get me a stick.
Now back to the mini moto subject. I'd hate this thread to get closed. So please
get back on subject everybody. And that includes me as well.
