Venice Motorized Felt Revolver... 8-Speed!

Venice Motor Bikes

Custom Builder / Dealer/Los Angeles
I finally finished this Felt that's been sitting in my shop for way too long... Back when I started this build, I built a full ported RAW engine for it, but somehow it just didn't have enough power to make it worth selling to someone...
Today I finally took the top end off & did a full 'three port' mod to it with a reed valve intake, & now it finally runs the way I had always wanted it to!

It's a 2011 Felt Revolver with a old skool (bullet proof) RAW engine that's been fully port matched, (now with three ports & a reed).
It has a SBP shifter kit with a 8-speed Sturmey Archer disc brake rear hub, front disc brake, SBP expansion chamber, re-jetted NT 'speed' carb, Sportsman 'keg' tank, 3G slick tires & a Felt F-005 fork.

I'm going to take it out this weekend & break it in... I hope you guys like it. : )

That bike is sharp! I really like the looks of the Felt frames and you always have built them up well.
Nice job!
 
What's not to like? Almost makes me want a jackshaft. Almost. Whoever buys that bike will be getting a really complete high level build.

Just wondering, how come you didn't seal the frame, and use it for a tank. Too small volume? Not that there's anything wrong with the tank it has.

Personally though, my back doesn't like leaning forward, and my wrists get tired. I want handle bars lol.
 
That is a sweet build Norm.......have ya thought about racing it? With 8 gears and all, I believe it would do well in the fast 2-stroke classes.

Another VMB done well......I calls em' like I see's em' (^)

Almost too nice to race. Is this the first 8 speed hub you have used
in a shifter? How do you like the gear spread? Do you use all the gears?
 
Thats one awesome looking bike, the red spokes and gas tank make it really cool looking.. looks clean also
