So I got about an hour of work done on the bike today and I went for the plunge and welded up the trellis. But first I checked like 6 times to make sure there were no clearance issues and then tacked it all up...



bummed at the crappy welds, so I might smooth and blend them later if I have time. At least they are solid.



Then I couldn't help myself and I threw some wheels and a seat back on. I pushed myself around a bit with the clutch pulled and everything felt solid and straight! (the vice grips are holding on the idler sprocket)





Next Ill put the crank, sprocket, and chain back on and start on the other side. That's it for today. Thanks for looking!

YES! I would love to! Speedweek is on my shortlist of places to seriously go.

Dang maybe a few of us should build them and see who is fastest. Based on the china 2stroke like yours

You're tempting me to show my sketch... Must hold out!

Only reason I never got into motorized bikes is the simple fact I need to get this one on the road before I even think about it.

This is really looking wicked cool. Love the way the chain threads through the trelis.

 

[Moisstink]

Man, I love watching your builds. A lot of motorized bikes out there but not too many at all that are this friggin cool. Very cool custom work!

Thanks Chad! It was function over form that necesitated that placement, but I also like how it turned out

Thanks Moisstink! I have a LOT left to do on it Ill give you a teaser tho... Its not going to have any kind of bicycle seat...

Well I got the rest of the swing arm welded today. I put the cups, crank a small 36t sprocket and a crappy chain back on to check clearances , and it looked like i would be able to match the trellis exactly to the other side.



Tacked up the first trellis which has the tightest clearance so I might use a bigger sprocket which will really help.



All tacked up and ready to go...




That's it for today. Thanks for looking!

Are the trellis's for stability or just for looks? Just wondering (they look rad either answer).
