Project Black Widow (First MB Build)

White Wolf · #1 09-02-2009, 09:14 PM

Hey guys,
I am on my way with my project "Black Widow" and I thought I would share my experience
with you guys.

I have ordered a Jet Stealth 80cc (or so they say) Gas Bicycle Engine Kit. From zoombicycles and a sweet black helmet with ghost flames (Safety first) along with a few goodies from Sick Bike Parts!!!

I am putting the 80cc on a beach cruiser with modified front forks to make it look kinda like a chopper.

So far I have stripped the bike down and sanded it, til my fingers were raw (to cheap to buy a
sander lol) I now have it all sanded a painted.

Can you guess what color the bike is going to be lol.

So my motor should be here in a week, so stay tuned!!!

Comments and Suggestions are always Welcome.

P.S. I will post some pics as soon as I can figure out how to post a pic. (I all ready have them on my computer)

Thanks to Fairracing31, I have figured out posting pics.

So here is the first pic before I sanded it down. I'll show the finished paint job tomorrow,
Seeing that it is dark out now.

if you pt a 20in back wheel on it and a 26in frount wheel, you might be able to ride a wheelie!

be careful with homemade forks like that! they tend to break at the worst times! along with the helmet you should also ride with safety glasses and a pair of gloves!

That would look cool, but actually I am putting 26" on both back and front. But U have given me an idea......
Mabe 26" on the back and 20" on the front

Thx for looking out for me bro. A really good friend of mine made the forks up for me, and he does excellent work and has been welding for 20yrs. So no worries!!!!

I am finishing up painting today, and then I will post some more pics for you guys. So stay tuned

thx White Wolf

It might be, I'm not really sure to tell you the truth.

But I think it is a beach cruiser.

You are more then welcome, thats what I am here for.

I think what the guys were trying to say is that no matter how good the welds are thats a lot of stress for such thin walled tubing.

It looks cool, keep us posted with your progress
