New minibike build, and a few others..

[Raywelder]

Alright guys,
Major progress today, FORGOT MY CAMERA THOUGH.

Spent all day at the shop today on this, Since I didnt have to work.
Spent first half of day just thinking and figuring.

Problem was trying to figure where to put the driven, The belt sizes I was able to get call for 10 1\4 center distance, and the next size was 13, 12 Would have been perfect...

So I was able to get it to the 10 1\4, however the jackshaft mounts are almost against the head of the engine, It has may 1\8th to 3\16" of clearance, however that can be improved if I milled the fins on the head down slighty, along with grind down my brackets and flanges. But I dont think it will be a problem.

So I got the jackshaft mounted, and engine mount made.

I will have to get some pictures of it, as everything came out really nice.

Now really all I need till I can do a test ride is just the belt ( Just ordered it) and some keystock.

and whoever mentioned a Y-pipe, I think I'm going to do that now,
It's growing on me, and sounds like I could a get a bit of power gain too.

You know what would gain some power with the Y-Pipe? A Slider Carb!

The place where I work, is where they work on all the trashtrucks, Our shop is across from the truck shop, and the landlord stores all their trashcans on that side of the shop.
