where can i get just the sprocket?

from the same guys that sell the complete kit.

 

[Bobby]

thanks ML-Toys please measure them but when you do can you measure when inflated to proper PSI and from the tire it self not the rim( look at Picture)

 

[gvfc2]

any update? ever get it going in the few days this thread has been silent?

 

[Bobby]

no ML-TOYS never measured it so i dont no how big the razor wheel is therefore i can't get it because i dont want to ship it back

 

[sexyvicta]

buy first, think/measure later.

could just some wheels from a kids 12 inch bike

 

[Bobby]

gvfc2 i was going to use them, thats the 12" bike in the video but it had a bent tire and i cant find a tire any where

 

[sexyvicta]

12 inch kids bike wheels cos next to nothing brand new. Even a complete new bike is cheap

 

[gvfc2]

i could find one on craigslist and ship it to you... but i got no money

 

[Bobby]

oh i forgot about craigslist. thanks any way gvfc2

I am not sure why people thing 6hp is way too much. I used to have one of those 1.5hp engines and it was terribly slow, then to 3hp, then to 5hp and now to a lot more.

It doesn't have to be scary, the extra power can make it more useable, the only factor is the bulkyness and weight of the engine

 

[Bobby]

but the power of the engine makes up for the weight

remember power:weight ratio

 

[Sam-Q]

well I was refering to the handling not the speed. If you have the engine above the back wheel like mine then it wouldn't be nice to corner with a heavy engine.

 

[Bobby]

true

Do you have any pictures of your set-up? I think it might help the thread to see a scooter with a big motor on it.

souperman000,
i don't have any pictures of it currently.

EDIT: Sorry for taking so long to respond guys, I've been really busy with school
