It's been a long and busy week, but the weekend weather has cooled off and it really pleasant outside. I'm going to try and keep working on my minibike project and hopefully post a few photos of the progress.
Last Sunday/Monday, I made a couple trips to TSC to get a raincheck on some roller bearings for the wheels I have. The old ones were either gummed up or rusted out. Hopefully they'll call me back soon so I can get them tapped into place.
I did a little light sanding on the frame on Monday to knock off some of the rust and see if there were any cracked welds. So far it appears in good shape.
I plan to see if I can locate a used engine for the time being, either off an old tiller or some other piece of old yard equipment with a horizontal shaft. There's a few places in my neck of the woods where I think that I could find one.
