Next project

Going to extend frame quite a bit

gotta take the thing apart and hit the frame with some gloss black.

also this mini bike is the most fun of the two i have assembled, its weird how it has pretty good suspension on it

i found out that these springs are basically mountain bike springs, i bought one for $17 that is supposed to have 1500lbs of resistance or some shit. the difference is massive from the one that came with the bike

not sure why i took this picture i guess you can see the stock muffler lol

also had to to make a new rod for the throttle, it broke while i was trying to modify it

used a kill switch off one of the mini bikes original engines

not sure what the cart had for returning the brake and throttle before, but there was nothing there. so we added some return springs, and some pull limiters and stoppers on the rods. so you can't just press the throttle so far it breaks lol...

forgot about some progress pictures

Only way to do it and make it look right is to try to replicate the existing fender just drawing the lines out enough to get the flare you want.

The boy and I terrorized the neighborhood today on the go kart and minibikes

After a few mins off hard riding the go kart motor stopped smoking. No smoke at all now the rings must have reseated

Lol

I also put the stock muffler on, it was too loud for the neighborhood.

It hit 40mph with the stock muffler, didn't test with the straight pipe but I think it could hit 45

The muffler really cuts rpm down at top speed

420cc motor still being shipped but we got it going with the 200cc one that smoked it's pretty fast lol

Most sport trucks keep the wheels in the fenders and don't use flares much. I'm so indecisive on how I want the truck to look and I'm not artistic at all so getting what's in my head into a physical shape is hard
