Yep, sure did.
You can get all sorts of grips on ebay.
These are for a motorcycle application, and that's why they are different sizes.

Allrighty,
I'm waiting on a few small parts to arrive to finish off the Bobber.
I am very confident that there will be no problems mechanically. I am working feverishly on my website which is going to debut this New Production Bobber Frame & Motor Mount / Jackshaft Kit.
I have Preliminary Prices Set for the Frame and Related Parts in the Kit, but they may be subject to change. I believe these prices hit the target market nicely and are more than fair for what you are receiving; A True Bobber Chopper Motorized Bicycle Kit that solves many problems, is reliable, and is a pleasure to build. A Bike that rides as good as it looks that you can customize yourself; A bike that will turn heads everywhere you go...
I am also going to have other products for sale that I believe are great additions as well. One of them will be this White Wall Paint. I am confident that it will hold up very well. A pint will do well more than one bike (more like 2-3 depending on how many coats you do), so you could charge your friends to do theirs after they see how cool yours are. Just leave some for yourself in case you scuff yours. The pint will sell for $28 plus shipping and a half pint will sell for $18 plus shipping. So you can see there is a better deal with more.
I have explained in the original thread of how this Frame Is Made From A Donor OCC Stingray frame.
It is by far the simplest, most inexpensive way to get a custom stretched chopper bike, that fits its' rider, and provides excellent comfort and advanced appointments. I see alot of these choppers on craigslist just destined for the dump someday....
SAVE THE CHOPPERS !!!!
Here Is The Original Post:
Prices, and The Art of Re-"Cycling"...
Allrighty,
We are going to touch on my Master Plan for what I am creating that I want everyone who likes choppers to have;
A Killer Adult Sized Chopper Bobber MB (Motorized Bike) that they can build themselves, Which Is Half The Fun.
Problem:
K, Everyone who likes Chopper MB's just loves the Big Fat Tire found on Schwinn Stingrays. So they go out and get an inexpensive Stingray off craigslist, buy an adapter kit for the motor that is available elsewhere, and go down the road. Then they buy the bent seat post to get the seat back further, and then get ape hanger handlebars and lean them waaay forward to give more reach. But face it Stingray guys.....unless you are vertically challenged, (no offense intended whatsoever)
IT'S JUST TOO SMALL FOR YOU!!!!
Don't you want to ride a bike that fits you?
Solution:
Mavrik Motor Bicycles Series One Frame "The Bobber"
- 5' Wheel base
- 25" Seat height (minimum) 28" (maximum) with Pedal Distance to the Seat Adjustment
- Provides fitment of riders ranging from 5'-4" to 6'-3" with sliding seat clamp attachment style
- Spring Loaded pivoting motorcycle solo seat pan and cushion.(Better than any bicycle seat. period)
- Custom fitted for and ready for Happy Time 2 Stroke China Engines
- Custom Isolated Rubber Motor Mounts- eliminates engine vibration
- Custom Jackshaft Option- Yes, you can have a 5 Speed Chopper
- Front And Rear Disc Brakes Option - add safety by truly stopping on a dime
- All truly headache free and a Bolt-On Affair
- The most inexpensive way to build your own custom chopper that fits
- more kewl and inexpensive gadgets are on their way
The Art of Re-"Cycling"
-Now anyone who has bought a brand new complete bike online that they couldn't find locally was absolutely murdered on shipping costs. And then they still have to fit the motor which cost more.
The Wide Rear Rim, Tube and Tire can be found but it is hella expensive, and you still need the wide cranks to fit the chain around the fat tire. These things make the venture unfeasable.
-The Stingrays are out of production but they live on almost everywhere you look. Unpristine examples can be had almost everywhere on the cheap. Craigslist, the local flyer, garage sales, the side of the road, etc. These used Stingrays have almost everything you need component wise.
These bikes are not going to be restored and they will eventually make it to the dump in their lifetime....
Time To RE-"CYCLE" And Save Yourself A Ton On Shipping.
Here's The Plan:
- You go out and get yourself a decent Used Schwinn Stingray On The Cheap
- Don't worry about the paint or the condition of the decals, seat, etc.
- just make sure the rims are straight and the cranks, pedals, and chainwheel aren't rusted to oblivion
- Now dismantle the bike. "ziplock & coffee can" parts in groups and stow the wheels and cranks
- Now (here's the fun part) Grab a Hacksaw, Sawzall, Dremel , or Cutoff Wheel on a Grinder or Air Tool.
- Take one last look at that old "too small" kids frame, and put on your safety glasses and ear protection
- Start Cutting
- I need the neck tube, crank tube , and the entire square tube rear wheel cage assembly for your build
- Leave an inch of the frame tubing still connected to these parts, put them in a small box and send it to me
- I will do the rest
- What you get back is a Custom Chopper Bobber Frame ready for the motor and all the parts you removed
- Shipping me the small box of frame parts shouldn't be more than $10-$12
- Shipping you just a lightweight thin boxed chopper frame shouldn't be more than $40
This is way cheaper than spending hundreds to get a complete bike to your doorstep,
You are re-"cycling" (doesn't that feel good?) and you get a hassle-free
Chopper Bobber MB with all the goodies, options and add-ons,
and you get to build it yourself which is half the fun.
Everybody Wins, And This Is The Best Bang For The Buck.
(end)
Now, I could go out and get an OCC Stingray for you, but I am going to charge you $80 extra for the bike and my time plus shipping to get the wheels, cranks, seat, handlebars etc. to your door step.....
See the beauty of my plan now.....? =-]'
So this is where I am at and what I believe will be a Great Thing.
I want everyone who likes choppers to enjoy my solutions that make Motorized Bicycling and absolute pleasure.
I have suffered many pitfalls in my Research & Development that you can't even imagine.
Just ask some of the guys that have ridden with me...
But nearly everything now is all solved.
Perfection Accomplished?
No, but darn close.....
When I can say I can dump the clutch, gun the throttle, speed shift through the gears, rip through the turns, and grab the brakes with all my might and come to a stop as my drool keeps going the speed I just was......I've gotten pretty darn close.
No one will ever know until they experience it themselves....and that's what I intend to make available.
(Man, I really have to produce a video)
So please be patient.
I'll have the prices up hopefully by this weekend. (finger's crossed)
-Please do not hesitate to private message me with questions, OR if you just gotta' have one and want me to start building yours immediately.... =-]' (just kidding.......but not really)
I do have Paypal currently set up and Merchant Services for credit cards hopefully in the near future.
Thanks,
and Ride On!

Is that a direct drive or is there a freewheel between the engine and the crank? (possibly between were the power is transferred to the right side?)

WOW, Brett, you never cease to amaze me!!
You really build some AWESOME BIKES!!!!
Keep em going!!! It's nice to see your choppers getting better and better, and your jackshaft setup is AWESOME. As usual of course
Keep Ridin'

The jackshaft consists of 3 cogs:
A fixed one on the left side, two on the right side.
In which the drive cog from the engine to the rear wheel is fixed,
and the one to the pedals is a freewheel.
This allows the feet to stay still or pedal backwards
to freak people out when blasting through intersections..... =-]'
Nice thing about this jackshaft is that it slides, so you can get the chain slack
tug-of-war between the left and right side absolutely perfect.

Hey Znsane!!!
How's it going, man!?
Hey tell everyone about our first opening run back in January with my first chopper build.
The welds were still cooling and the paint was still drying, but I made the 1st St. Pete Run.
Remember the drivetrain issues I ran into??? I look back and laugh at it now. =-]'
Znsane was there and can attest to the gremlin's I faced around every corner after the Orange Coast's Chopper's fresh build with all the new gadgetry and appointments. I've come a long long way in 6 months, and the gremlin's are all but gone. My trials and tribulations really paid off.
Here's is my Orange Coast Chopper:
-the research and development platform test rod-

That jesse james bike is sick man! I like it. You should make a stretch chopper one day. That would look sweet! 
I can't tell you,
but you wouldn't believe the twisted notions in my head when it comes to future builds.... }=-]'

something like this! in order from last to first (left to right) I built a chopper once a year for the past 5 years and actually the orange and the red were built in the same year. I like to build and still going to build my version of a MB Chopper. "FileStyle"
Attachments
How did you mount that brake under the seat in the first build? that looks like a good idea since the handlebars are so far away in my build.
modified an old brake handle that had a gate or a strap to bolt on and secure to frame under seat
Yeah, FileStyle!
Those are pretty cool builds!
Man, what are your wheelbases coming out at? How about your "Trail" measurements?
I have another production frame already started. This frame will be the "Chopper" frame.
A taller and more raked beauty. It will require a longer front fork. It will resemble the
Orange Coast Chopper, but with much more rake for the guys that gotta have it,
and a longer frame. Practicality becomes and issue, so I won't be going too crazy.
I'll probably build a custom front springer that will bring the
Trail Measurement back into check for good handling in the turns.

Brett you are effin ridiculous man. I didn't even see the rear suspension on that Jesse James bike until just Now............I hate you for having the Bike that I want...lol J/K I just ordered My welder and I hope to be half as awesome as you when I start pumping out the customs!
Heheheheh! =-]'
Oh, you mean the Reverse Cantilever 90 Degree Flame Bracket Rear Suspension...?
Yeah, I had waaay too much sugar the day I though that up.
It works very well. The best way I can describe riding this chopper is....well...
As if I were riding on a miniature cumulus cloud that is as agile and responsive as Aladdin's Magic Carpet... =-]'
I still have the frame, but since that was the first rendition of a motorized bicycle built by yours truly,
I have since evolved a little in my building, and will be taking this frame
down to pieces again, and rebuilding it's shape to reflect the "Motorcycle With Pedals" motif
with a springed solo motorcycle seat instead of the arced seat post and bicycle seat.
This frame will always be mine as it was my very first motorized bicycle build.

The Jackshaft Kit for my Bobber frame wouldn't fit your OCC, Terron...
It is made for 1.5" round tubing.
However,
I will build one for your Seat Post on your OCC chopper that you can bolt right on,
and start shifting like you should have been all along.
It will come complete with:
-Clamshell Housing
-Engine Conversion Sprocket
-2 Fixed gears,
-Freewheel
-Shaft
-2 bearings
-Retainers
-Collars
-Nuts & Bolts
Basically everything you need to get the power the to right side of the OCC
with the perfect reduction gear ratio for a 5 speed freewheel at the 20" Big Boa back tire.
This one will fit your chopper and be adjustable to get it lined up just right.
There's nothing like having great accleration, because you have the perfect gear for any given speed,
and NEVER having to pedal again because you can take off right from a stop by letting out the clutch
and giving 'er the onion.... (throttle, for all you non-hicks)
$199.00
I also have:
The Derailleur, 5 Speed Freewheel, Speed Shift Trigger Shifter, and Chain Tensioner
if you want to do a One Stop Shop.

I can put it wherever I need it without the clamshell, My bike is getting torn down again for my mods. I am going to do a bike much like your east coast bike actually. I have had full suspension goals for a while just lacked the tools to accomplish it(dont worry it's way different than yours).I just ordered my welder so I can finish now. And I will definitely be ordering your jackshaft kit once the bike is ready for it. That is the best looking jackshaft I've seen! Any price drop without the clamshell though?
