hey guys, after a very long build (due to $$$ problem) i finally finished my 1st Motorized bike indian inspired BTR build. alot of frustrations before i hit the sweet spot. and sometimes, this kit really makes you pull your hair out lol laff engine is a PK80 66cc. still on my 3rd tank running 32:1 with 76 2-cycle oil. fabricated the tank with 20ga galvanized sheet metal and salvaged the cap and filler neck from the stock tank, oxy-acetylene weld the tank.. fabricated and welded a chain tensioner to the frame because the stock tensioner do really suck. replaced the sparkplug wire, sparkplug (ngk b6hs) and the sparkplug boot. planning to add a mock oil tank / toolbox on the rear fender side. happy motorbicycling! .shft.

Really nice build! Did you do a poating on the head badge and what about the kiwin neutral polish?
 
Welcome to the Tribe! good looking bike, if you want to get a little better kick outta that PK 80 try a Dax rt carb and a bike berry expansion chamber, both are very affordable and will improve the drivability.

Nice Bike !

thanks for the cool response guys! im planning on putting an expansion chamber but i think i'll put one once ive had miles on my bike. still having real issues with the chain on the pedal side, it keeps on lodging every time i try to pedal hard!
 
@Russel - i fabricated the headbadge out of sintra board. a pvc like plastic sheet. i had a thread about that in the chop shop section
 
I don't see why they wouldn't ship? you are a paying customer and they are some good people at Dax so get in contact with them and see, it ain't nothing but an e-mail.

As far as the peddle chain you can either get a smaller chain wheel or a half link chain either through Amazon or EBay
38 36 or 32 tooth
 
Great work, you may have to add some washers on the rear axle to spread it apart a bit to get some extra space for the chains. I had to do that on my build.
