Hello All,

New here (obviously) and looking to start a build. Trying to put together a RELIABLE machine and I

figured you all would be the ones to reference. It's gonna take a while to pour through this forum so

excuse me if I ask a question or two that has already been answered. Looking forward to comparing

notes with you all!

Tom

Reliable - four stroke rack mount with either a friction drive or a chain drive to a Manic Mechanic hub adapter. If you intend to ride it in the snow or rain, use a chain drive, and add on a front drum brake hub. Going is great, stopping is better.

Glad to see you're getting started. Am down the road from you in Twin Falls & will be getting my 4 stroke out on the street after doing some minor adjustments on it. May even get a 2 stroke going once I get the money around.

Friend & I live in Twin Falls & we've been getting quite a few looks & inquiries about how did we do it & such. Is your friend making a pretty good living doing the builds? Have you had any problems with the police hassling you?
