C'mon guys...some of you are making me out to be the school bully who's giving everyone a wedgie.

Chill out...It's just a bicycle with an engine on it. As I already said in previous posts...this is being built for a customer in Trinidad. As also stated in previous posts...it's the bike...not the engine, that makes fast a reality. 67 cc's, tuned, is more than enough to go fast.

The bike that I plan on using for the Trinidad build will be shipped tomorrow. DV went 43.7 on the GPS today. It was scary seeing him go that fast! That's it for this bike...I'm not willing to push it any further without a strong platform to take it to the next level.

Maybe I'll hit 52 mph, and that will be it!!! Who knows...who cares...it's just for fun. I told the customer in Trinidad that I would get the most out of it that I could. Plain and simple...I will have created a sturdy, safe, fast motorbike. If he wants more...he'll have to go elsewhere as I will have done all I can to make a fast bike.

Yes...

DVBikes is Dylan...he works at my shop, and he will be the one to ride the speed bike.

The thread was appropriately re-named by one of the mods. He is young enough to chase girls and enjoy life without bothering with the bickering of a bunch of old cronies, needing a diaper change, discussing a fast bike. I on the other hand, am one of the old cronies...so I'll gladly keep ya'll up to date on what's going on.

Better get some vitamins sonny, I chase tail, build/ride bikes and work full time. ;)

Oh yeah, and I mod here too.
 
Will we see a legit 60mph video? Will the world fall to ruin waiting?.....only the shadow knows for sure......
 
i think this project is great, someone with credibility is going to see how fast an HT can go. i have my doubts if it can reach 60 mph with just modified HT parts. but i'm eager to see just how fast it can go.

if you have to go with a pouch jug and other parts then it's not really an HT anymore. other than carb and exhaust all the parts should be HT's modified any way you can.

Thank gawd I work ona 'puter... I've no idea how'd I be able to spend any time on this forum elsewise lol... erm... don't tell my boss mk? :D

Now if I could only build a bike at work too... hmm...
 
I'm subscribing to this thread for sure! Lol, you guys are a riot! I just spent somewhere under an hour reading every post in all 11 pages of this thread, thoroughly amused! I love this website, I had a hard, tiring night at work, I come home, exhausted and miserable, I log on, and BAM! You guys got me in a good mood again. Thanks guys! LMAO, so anyways, here's my two cents...

I see the merit in the challenge, I can picture the customer in Trinidad saying he wants it to go as fast as possible. This Trinni wants to be a king. ;) I say let him. Lol, as for myself, I've had a piston sieze at 45 km/h, it wasn't pretty. I don't know what that is in MPH, but it's not even 30 I don't think. I'm only able to hit 53.8 km/h, on a slight downhill with no wind, and at that speed, I'm scared. I've bailed my bike many times, and hearing that lil unreliable, possibly made with a hammer in china, engine scream under my junk, I have a minor panic attack. If you are willing to try 60 MPH on a bicycle with one of these engines, be my guest, but in my opinion, you're a special kind of human. LMAO. You're two brave men, and as for the Trinni dude, let's hope he knows what he's getting himself into. I wish you the best of luck, the best of safety, please don't crash. lol, as cool as this would be, I don't think we want to put a memorial at the end of this thread. I'm following along with this thread, I'm interested and anxious to know everything went well, and it's a story for the record books, and not names on a hospital list.

Best of luck Jim and Dylan.

Damien.

Thanks Damien!

I'm glad you have enjoyed the thread so far...we're a bunch of nut jobs eh? :D

Lol, nutjobs make life interesting. I have more respect for nutjobs than I do "normal" people. Lol.
I respect the knowledge so many of you possess, I am truly jealous. I wish I was so good at this stuff. Lol. I just know how to twist a throttle. Ha ha.
 
**** yes I'm into this one....Like I said I am already ordering the 110 version of this bikes motor even the seventy CC's is probably a blast I'm going with the 110 because I don't care about the legality of my bike anymore, I am making it a small motorcycle and the 110 just reminds me of the old Harleys and Board trackers. Sweet bike though for sure, but damn its spendy.
