There She Blows

Smokey Yunick could fit an extra 4 gallons of gas in his fuel line. Try harder!

I think 4’ is long enough to mount this engine, a jackshaft, and the rear tire. Maybe the battery and fuel tank too.

If this turns into a minibike, it will be long. And tall. Maybe not so mini at all.

I’m not too familiar with motorcycles but I’ve heard a few terms.
Trying to figure out a solution to my lack of vehicle…
I was looking up triple tree / fork stuff that might work.

If neck height could be 25” with a 36.9 degree rake and 19” diameter front tire, this front end with 530mm forks (28.9”) would give 4.6” of trail.

Well this looks hideous!
How do I make it sexier?

Put your skullet up in pig tails, and make sure your lipstick color matches your high heels.

That always works for me!!!!!

If that's not sexy enough,......out comes the fish net g-string for a test and tuning session.

 

[bob58o]

I was thinking beer goggles would do? Lol
If you squint it kinda looks like this.
I guess curves are sexy.

Put a scantily clad stripper on it?

 

[bob58o]

Maybe it will look better if shorter?
48” gives so much room for activities.

A little mock up to help the vision.

“You’re a greasy fast 200 lb Italian tank! Go through him! Run over him!”

Your buildin' a tank
That's sooooo kool

Looks good so far
...& ta make it sexier maybe try a DIYGK sticker

 

[ezcome-ezgo]

That lamp is bringing sexy back.

 

[bob58o]

Did I say Italian? It must be French. Or was it Italian?

 

[Denny]

Both are cool!!!

I read fruit as poorly as plugs, but a few more days of ripening in a sack with some nanners and I should be ready for my first attempt at DIY salsa made from DIY plants grown in DIY soil.

d i Y it taste so good?

The rest can ripen on the plant. They are sanding, filling, and painting the balcony posts and I wanted to make sure I got at least a bit b4 they duck up my garden.

 

[bob58o]

My table is getting heavier.

 

[bob58o]

Almost starting to look like a thing.

This is estimated a 48 - 50” wheel base.
Something like a 33 degree rake.
13” rear tire.
17” front.

 

[bob58o]

I guess the front will be a z50 monkey bike deal.

If I keep leaning parts against other parts, I assume they will form a jig and weld themselves together.

That don’t work. Imagination welds are really weak.

She's a bit of an odd duck, but hauls *** and handles surprisingly well for being stretched and raked with no care for caster/trail, sitting on 2.50-18 moto tires and 1970's Takasago 185B-18 rims.

Eventually I'm going to scratch build an entire New frame, but for now this full custom chop never fails to turn heads, demand attention, and confuse the SW Virgina L.E.O.'s enough they don't even bother to look twice (assuming they look at all)
