I know I dont allways check the vids & pics section but I started a new project & thought Id give a link here

its about as home brew as they get

it is a puch E50 engine & with the porting & compression stuff I did allong with a few other things it should cruise in the mid 40s comfortably

Looks great. How does it feel without front suspension? Does the rear have Suspension?

Can't wait to see video of that thing run.

I cant feel anything.... no bars or seat
I wish I had the pile of bicycle parts I had when I was a kid

I had like 2 huge pickup fulls of parts in the 5th grade from all my uncles & aunts
I used to build a bike a week back then

Im going to put a suspension fork on it which I picked up today
I was thinking about doing another fork like on my other bike but..... AH for $50 the manatu was easier
Ill build the brackets for a spring in the back & use a cheapie ebay suspension spring back there
it cant have too much travel in the back or the chain will be a total PIA to tension but maybe 2.5 inches in the back
here is the fork & & my other bike
take care
