Hey guys I plan on building my first barstool racer and i have a couple questions. I don't have access to a welder so i am buying a complete kit from a dealer and putting it together. I plan on using this at all our campground sites and i was looking into the grooved tires instead of the slicks, is there a good brand i should look for? I also want to get a custom barstool top for it but that looks $$$,lol. I plan on using the 212 predator motor to power the stool which seems to be the go to motor for the price.

Thanks

Mike

Dont' get crazy and put a torque convertor on it! I've done it, and while doing wheelies was fun on a bar stool, we all fell off at least once!

Most bar stool's Ive seen like this, have wheelie bars. They alway lift when you crack the throttle on, so this helps to keep from ditching it every time... Well in a straight line that is.....Its high centered anyways...
