    Mini bike motor question

    Hey guys, it's been a while. I have a question. I have a 139cc 2 stroke motor off my old snow blower that I'd like to put onto a minibike. My question is, for those of you that have done similar, did you use a torque convertor or a clutch to engage the rear wheel? Thanks

    Anyone stretch just the rear wheel?

    Thanks man. Is that a 250 as your avatar.

    Thanks guys! NLCTVWguy, those look like the old Amen Savior frames. I was actually looking to build a Honda CB 750 using one of those but sort of got out of motorcycles last year. Spincycle, that was more what I was thinking of. Thanks!

    Anyone stretch just the rear wheel?

    I'm trying to find some pics of how it looks. Like how on motorcycles a lot of guess stretch or use a stretched swing arm to pull the rear tire back. I'd like to see how it looks on a bicycle. Thanks as always guys.

    Any idea what this might be worth?

    Yeah, I was just getting it to mess with though. Maybe if he doesn't get any offers and gets in a hurry to sell he'll come back lower.

    Any idea what this might be worth?

    Yeah, I passed. The dude said he wanted $100 and lowered it to $60. It needs some work yet and I just don't think it's worth it.

    Thanks guys! We'll see what he says. I figure it'd be a cool little bike to take apart and clean up and maybe have for my daughter when she gets older or whatever.

    https://cid-fd8b3a8e9a3b78e2.photos.liv ... 5E_220.jpg It's for sale locally and the guy wants $60 for it. It's some 70's Huffy he says. Just wondering if that is a good deal or not? Thanks

    getting dents out of chrome fenders.....

    Sometimes, but this will discolor the chrome, you can heat it up really hot with torch and use some dried ice to pop it out. I see that done a lot but again, it'll discolor the chrome.

    Places to get beach cruiser frames?

    Thanks man! I'm actually in the Detroit area. I'll find one one day. I'm not really looking that hard yet. I was thinking of hitting up the local junk yard but it's been rainy and it's a mud pit right now.

    Welding cromoly steel

    Keep your eye on Toolking.com too. I got a Hobart Flux welder reconditioned for $212 shipped and it's a much better machine than the HF or Lincoln style fluxes you get in the big box stores.
