Stupidity at its finest

[Uncle Stretch]

Thanks Luke. I look at it as its getting closer to finished, and it
looks so simple. Frame couple wheels ,motor and a jackshaft.
There was quite a bit of work involved, since I built most everything.
The gusset in the front takes up a little space and the big back wheel
adds to the mix. Might have looked a little better with another big
tire on the front, but oh well it is what it is. Sometimes your parts
choice really make your build look a certain way. Hopefully good.
The reality is its a mini bike and doesn't mean a whole lot one way
or the other. Been fun building so far.

Burn up a little of Steve's real estate.

Getting towards the end of designing. Just about ready to pull
it apart, weld the rest and then paint. Got the pegs on and tacked
pretty heavy. They should work good.

Ok a quick test run around the back yard

Very cool,that is a nice feat of engineering.

 

[Uncle Stretch]

Thanks. Still have a ways to go,but nothing broke or fell off.
For some reason my Mac won't show Photobucket videos
anymore. Hope everybody can see it.

Looks like Photobucket doesn't like your mp4.
Or maybe it doesn't like me.

Yeah I can't view it on my Mac for some reason. It works fine if
you use microsoft.
Its just a video of an old fat man on a mini bike. lol
Deorman I used my wife's sony with microsoft and it worked perfect.
My mac acts like there is nothing there.

[Uncle Stretch]

Glad you finally get to see it. It really wasn't all that to begin with.
Thanks jay. It should look pretty good when its painted and finished.
Its been fun to play with. Something different for me too.

That is looking sweet! Love the video around the Oil Rig grass track!

 

[Uncle Stretch]

Its been raining or I would have ventured out of the back yard.
The mosquitoes are really fierce. I fogged the back yard this morning
is the only reason we were out anyway. Killed a bunch , but they are
back tonight. Have to get them again tomorrow morning.
My back yard is fairly big but not really enough to make a track.lol

That is awesome Uncle, glad to see you back at fabbing stuff. That thing would be awesome up here in Missouri (it would be classified as a mopad here). Me and a buddy was talking about building something for off roading while sitting around some 4 wheelers he had in his shop, will have to show this to him.
