Re: weed eater bike questions I got the one from ebay to start. I don't have a gas tank hooked up yet so I couldn't keep it running but it ran on the gas i poured down the spark plug hole. It is going to be an easy build I think.
There are threads on the Ryobi drive shaft. the are 3/8 inch 32 threads. If I am not terribly mistaken the foot pegs on some trick bikes have a 3/8 32 female opening. It should just screw on. The only problem I see is the threads require a clockwise turn and the engine turns counter clockwise. Sounds like a job for lock tight or jb weld on the threads of the peg.
I have decided to run a cable from a brake handle to the bracket to lift the engine off the tire from the handlebars. If that works this will be one sweet build. Of course it wont lol. |
