The “Game Changer” is the latest build that I am working on. This motor has been on the bench for some time with the intensions of putting it in a Honda CB 100 as a street bike ride but issues with registration put a stop to it. So now the time has come for this motor to power one of my favorite bike frames…the “DYNO”. Power plant: KTM Water Cooled 50cc 5 speed. Fresh big bore kit installed and ready to rock and roll.

This should be one exciting ride….

Pictures to follow…

After playing around with the big and little four strokes and the cost of drive systems, clutches and the size of these motors it just makes sense to try this route. I do have the need for speed!!!

That's gonna be a rocket right there. Gonna be hard to keep the front wheel on the ground!

M good buddy phood was always asking me why no one has put that engine in a bicycle yet? The time has come and he's gonna drool.

Very nice Jeff......awesome build goin' down!
 
Signing on to this thread and drooling at the Key Board. Looking forward to what you think of it. I know it will be a brillant build. Your work and craftmanship has always reset and raised the bar!
 
Scotto it going to take some action to shift it quick. The jackshaft setup looks good, short chain to the wheel is always good. Should of ordered the 41 shaft sprockets Tuesday, could have had it at least tested this weekend.

The red bike is the real game changer....

Now we're talkin' Jeff.
If it's going to look anything like your 4 stroker...you know it's going to be bad a$$!
How many CCs is that motor now?

I like where the seat tube ended up, very clean the way it's coming together with your j-shaft mount. Looks like everything is lining up very nicely.

That ol' Duc looks like Moto Benelli.......race to the cafe ;)
 
This bike build now gets real interesting, thought the motor was a 50 with a big bore to 65cc turns out its a 65cc with a 80cc kit... Happy Times Easy Rider

Did a little fab work to complete a couple sets of drop out extensions, cleaned up the aluminum front motor plates and checked my stock for wheels. Got the LB swap tomorrow to find some items if needed.
