Heh heh, sounds like a caged animal Max!

What colour are you thinking of redoing her in? Ceramic engine enamels are gas/oil/heat resistant, multiple colour's to choose from too. Just a thought

I will use the same KTM orange, but it is a 2 component paint that can withstand gasoline , and the engine should have black clutch and magneto
covers

sexy, is that a kx65 expansion chamber?

 

[rustycase]

ha ha!

Knew a guy with a probe, once... it wasn't pink...
but he had the turbo model.
Amazing how fast he could burn up tires!

Actually, the infra-red temp probes are a handy thing to have around...
I got one way back when they were expensive.
Now Beavis has it... itsok, he does a lot of mech work...

Yes it is!! Women loves the color, but most men hate it

It is not from a kx65 its from a Yamaha DT 60cc
aftermarket expansionchamber

This is an awesome build- Thanks for sharing!!

Have made some changes , new mufflers, a little quieter exhaust sound, new saddle, wireless speed sensor. Did a 80 miles bike ride today, everything works perfectly. The engine works perfectly,goes good for 30 mph, top speed 44mph. can not seem to run faster with 36 tooth rear sprocket, however lacks a little power at lower rpm, will probably change the header of the expansion chamber for better bottom pull

That bike looks like a larger version of a pit bike except with pedals.

Hello all forum friends! Now it's been a while since wrote a post about my bike build!(it's finished now) I have now got two bikes that I intend to build! Have bought one"fiddy" the engine will be good for a bike. The second, I think I will use a Solex engine (copy) ie it is front wheel drive. will buy it from Swedish Mekit.se http://www.mekit.se/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1&zenid=c108e7d9340ecf7d0c4bc4cdf3222351

That first one looks interesting is it sporting a CVT?

Hi ! The engine does not have a cvt transmision, but just a regular centrifugal clutch. It is 50cc 2.5 hp. It's very small engine. Have not decided to which bike I will use it in

 

[gera229]

Hey, I use the same exact engine on my bike as the one in the picture except the 2 piece cylinder version. It's deemed to be a very powerful, but not so reliable engine. I achieved over 11.5k RPM with mines.

Awesome build and a cool guy who realizes a dream!

 

[max350]

It happens not so much with my next bike build, I keep mostly on collecting some new bikes. A tandem bike and an old bicycle that could be a good BRT build

 

[max350]

Time for a little update of my bike. Bought new wheels with mounts for disc brakes, rims are a bit narrower than what I have today, will use a narrower tire for it to roll a little easier for higher top speed Have also ordered a rear sprocket(35 tooth) for disc brake mount from e-bay
On the front wheel i will have a disc brake, but on the rear wheel, I will continue with rim brake -it is not necessary on the rear wheel

How many miles did you approximately put on this thing so far?
Seems like that China Girl engine is being very reliable.

Have not driven so many miles, think it is about 500, but the engine has worked very well since I rebuilt it with new bearings, etc.. Uses 4% oil mixture (http://www.triboron.se), there is no reason to use less

I have a chinagirl on The Pig with several thousand miles. Had one coil failure from me forgetting to seal the cover. Never had the head off since I cleaned it when I got it.
If you take care of it right, the HT's can be very reliable!
