Stroke it with a 3hp crank and rod.

Finally had time to work on the bike. I put the cover back on and torqued to spec. I started her up and oil started leaking out again. I saw a crack in the bottom left of the sidecover. I figured it was damaged whed I dropped it off my workbench. I grabbed another sidecover and put it on. When...

I just couldn't get that flathead to run the way I wanted. Since this isn't a vintage bike, I had no problem going to a predator. This hemi has been sitting new in the box on my shelf for a couple of years. I put a non hemi crank in it to use a clone cast aluminum flywheel. It has a Banzai .265...

I want an RCF lowrider like this for my next build. This is the definition of cool.

I went with 10" dirt bike wheels. You can get them with disc brakes or drums. I swapped to street tires. With those Azusa wheels from GPS you can go with a band brake or a drum brake. I have heard a lot of bad things about the drum brakes on those.

It was on an Arctic Cat With a 3.5 tec. Straight, keywayed 3/4" shaft.
