Im thinking of this motor / trans setup for my next build a( first is nowhere near done; all ready plotting the next) and know next to nothing about them exept its a 200cc four stroke thumper with a centif clutch. Also: could you please post up some pic's of how you fab'd a mount for your carbide lamp? Im thinking of a brass carbide or kerosene period lamp for my build.Thanks man! I get an incredible high everytime I ride her. And it keeps getting better! The fan blades still cool the case even though the shroud is off. It sucks the air at the center of the fans vortex and it carries the air around the opposit side of the engine. Aluminum engine case absorbs the engine heat that is absorbed by the splashing oil and the circulating air carries it away. I was in a parade for 30 minutes traveling at 2 mph in 100 degree heat and it didn't even get close to overheating. The fan also blows on the intake and carb for a cold air intake effect. My carb is always 20 degrees cooler than ambient. I always ride with my right leg in the rear most position and have not had any blade chop problems. Just in case though I rounded and polished all the blade fins so there are no sharp edges. The comet tranny is the bomb. You will love it! I'll post some shots of the lamp mounting later today.Hey CF!! Incredable work. Have a couple questions. Whats the original and curent purpose of the "fan" blades on the flywheel? Do you fear for your toes?
No, it just a shell. I got a good deal on it because it was non repairable. It has state of the art high end German LED bike light technology running from a dynamo/brake hub. The safety wire keeps it from slipping off and discourages casual theft of the light.
Trust me in this. I'm 47 years old and the last thing I want to do is hurt myself! Lol. The bike was showing problems before but now it's really rock steady. I have a lot of confidence in the way it handles. It goes fast and carves corners with ease.Methinks your newfound "twitchyness" is a result of your front axel being so far ahead of the forks. Carefull going extra fast; the front end might end up driving you.
It came from CA so it shipped quicker than I expected. Looks sweet. Now the bike looks like a former board track racer that someone retired to street use with lights, plate, horn, and mirror. It feels great. I recommend this bar for board track builds. Sportsman Flyer bars are really high quality. The bars are aluminum and they have individual allen head bolt fasteners and a locking screw. Infinite adjustable. 
I meant not that I know it all at this point in life but at this age I'm extra careful to prevent injuries. I rode the bike 12 miles to work and it's a fraking dart. No issues at all. If my tires could handle the speed I would try 70mph. But they won't so I won't, don't worry.
