DIG'N IT! are you going to paint it? if so let me say a polished Metal area in the center of the tank would look cool! then painted every where else.
 
Thanks Gearnut
It is a charge coil from phantom bikes ,The kit includes the headlight and charge coil it is very well made.I was curious if any one has used a rectifier with their kit
 
Hey man, looking sweet! Two questions for you:
1. What are you using for the pedal side chainguard? I'm thinking about adding one to my GT2A-S
2. Where did you get the right angle fitting for the fuel line out of the tank? Is that actually an M10x1.0 fitting or did you make a 1/8" NPT work?
 
The chain guard is off a schwinn girls light weight from 70. Thread is 1/8'' pipe the fitting is 1/8'' 90, their is also a 1/8 street 90 that is male pipe to female pipe depending on what you need

Just looked up the cost on that light kit, YOWZA! Have you seen how well the light works at night yet? I'd love to add a powered light to mine but my remaining budget will be calling for a battery based option. Any idea who really makes the coil in the kit?
 
I too am waiting for someone to share their first hand experience with the PhantomBikes lighting system. Anyone can buy a crazy bright battery powered headlight off of amazon for $30. Is the PhantomBikes system worth the no batteries required feature? I really hope so, I like the idea alot.
 
finally had time to work on the bike painted and polish and assembled motor and have all parts back from powder coat today. should finish the bike this week

If it was designed correctly(and all the buzz says it was) there is no reason this setup can't easily run a full electrical system just like a motorcycle. A dedicated lighting coil like this is the best way to get reliable power.
I remember WAY back in the day, I met a kid who had a very similar setup on a Kohler bb crank gokart engine built by his engineer dad. It had FOUR full size KC offroad lights on the rollbar and that sucker would scorch paint at 10 feet.
It DID sap a noticeable amount of power from the 12(originally)hp engine, but worked like a charm. He had full lights like any car including electric start with a motorcycle battery.
Your system looks very similar, so there's no reason you can't really go whole hog if you choose.
You just need to do some research and design a proper circuit.
 
Super Kooool build don't know how I missed it. Motor mount plate how thick and how did you drill the holes at a angle ? I am thinking milling machine slitly smaller then the tubes? .........Curt
 
Made moor progress have every thing back from powder coat made mount for front drum break arm. Assembled all fenders and tack welded all nuts.Should come close to finishing tomorrow need to run all cables for breaks , throttle head light and wiring.
