awesome mini road bike build (must look)

[dan]

hi all i started this project about 3 mounth ago and thought i would put it up here its not realy a mini bike but its got 2 wheels and will be fun when its finished. my plans are to buy a 2 stroke dirt bike engine such as a 80,85,125,250 what ever i can get cheap. i will also buy a pair of pit bike forks off ebay aswell as the wheels. i have mocked up the forks and swing arm useing mtb wheels. i have a 50cc pocket bike engine that i might put in it with the mtb wheels untill i get the new parts. as for body work it will all be done by me out of sheet metal first then maybe fiber glass.
p.s. it was oringily going to be a dirt bike.
let me know what you think it all so has bein sitting out side of my shed for a week explaining surfast rust.
Thanks, Dan

edit: looks terable there lol looks better in real life and will clean up agian

what size engine? looks awesome

 

[Raywelder]

I think you need a bigger engine

 

[kazkepox]

like a 150cc bike engine :drool:

 

[lemegacool]

wow dude nice frame!!! needs a little bit love from a flap disc LOL and a bigger engine... because the pocket bike engine will not get you going...

 

[dan]

yer engine will be upgraded to a 2 stroke dirt bike engine like a 250 or 125. so it will hammer lol.
Thanks, Dan

Haha good.
because right now its looking extremely underpowered.

thats really cool. But those wheels are gonna have trouble with that much weight. If you not gonna be riding it offroad it should hold up

hey man, the wheels are goin to be replaced by pit bike wheels i will put road tyres on them aswell. it was just mocked up with the mtb wheels. it will also have usd forks for the front.
thanks,Dan

hmm, a road going bike shouldn't normally have that much ground clearance (unless it's a dual sport). and mocking up with mtb wheels may have hurt you as moto wheels are generally wider on tires and hubs. nice job otherwise. whoops, my bad. i didn't read all of it first.

 

[dan]

yer it will probly end up lower but yer its not very big any way i like it lol

 

[kazkepox]

just a quick question, is this going to be more like a dirt bike or a crotchrocket?

 

[dan]

hey kazkepox, its gonna be a street bike, crotchrocket and a rocket it should be lol if i stik a 250 in it it will have about 45-50hp and way about 100kg with rider if that. so power to waight is realy good.

 

[kazkepox]

it just seems weird to have a 2 stroke in a street bike lol.

 

[dan]

most of the street bike back about 13 or so years were 2 strokes lol and i just like them cus there light and powerfull personal opion

 

[kazkepox]

well of course it will be a kick butt bike with a 2 stroke I just think its funny...

 

[dan]

ha yer ok i recon it should be kool with a 2 smoke. if it was your what engine would u put in it just a matter of intrest

 

[kazkepox]

like a 300-350 4 stroke, but thats just my preference.

 

[dan]

you would find that it would be a fairly heavy motor compered to a 2 stroke and would have around the same power but yer its all about what we wont. thats why we build theses things lol

 

[kazkepox]

i know it would be heavier and bigger, and I like big motors lol.
