Hi Joe, I have only built 4 myself. The rusty one was chopped to become the black one, so 4 builds but most of the steel was the same on #1 and #4. I had wanted to go belt drive in the rear of the black bike, BUT I'm getting a really nice sprocket mount set from Creative and will put that on and run it as a nice test!

I just ordered a frame and tank from Firebikes. The question I have from looking at his website is...in the gallery they have a picture of a green bike. The red frame and green bike are one in the same only....the green bike has a bar to accept the rear engine mount. Have you tried to dry fit a motor on the Firebike frame yet? How involved is it going to be to add a support bar?

I really like the black one, it looks like the forks have a bit of rake to them. Do they? The idea of a Firebike, stretched chopped looking boardtracker really appeals to me. Maybe a dragbike look?
Where can you get the wide wheels, the 3" ones...I haven't found the source yet.
Yours and Joes bikes are an inspiration to me...really nice.
thanks
