Well i kinda figured it out.The brake cable was stopping the wheel from moving forward.The bracket on the brake is wrong.It goes from the top of the brake to the bottom of the frame.
I took the brake cable off and it ran good for about 300 feet till the chain snapped at the master link...
Thanks for the replies guys.I will get a tooth cont in the next 2 days or so.I'm swamped with work.I know this set up is not the best for a 220lb guy.The clutch worked ok till the chain broke.Could it be that it was too heated to work right again or did i blow it.This is going to be for a 8 yr...
I live about 15 min away from there.Thanks for posting this.Hopefully it goes well and New England can put on more events like this.Maybe even minibike shows and swap meets.
I am interested in a meet n greet there before of after if anyone else is interested.PM me and i will give you my #.
I got the rest of the parts in and installed them.Only one of the fake gas tank holes lined up but thats ok I put in a self tapper.I may have to drill. A hole in the fake tank or take it off every time I want to fill it up with gas.
The brakes worked ok but need adjusting.I drove it around...
I'm happy for you.You and ya dad will have tons of fun.I just got my first dirt bike last summer and love it.I know u were just tooling around but please wear some boots.Hope you both have happy and safe riding memories together.
Seeing how I'm waiting on parts for my build off entry I figured I would start another build.I got this cart last week for $50 and had it sandblasted for $60.I thought both were a good deal.I ordered new tires and inner tubes a few days ago.I think the only original motor needs a tank and carb...
I will have to check if it is set for manual operation.Good point.I just ordered a 7ft chain so i will have plenty now.I didn't know till an hr ago that you could buy it by the foot.
Here's a update with a few questions.First ill post picts from my phone then ask the questions when I get on my comp.

Not much progress made other than a little more paint and trying ti get the engine in.I had to soak the bolts to that guard so it will fit.I need to try to get new bearings for the goose neck or whatever its called and a few other nuts and bolts.Not sure where to get them i have to do a...
Lol,funny.It seems like it.There actually just pliers i'v got over the years and keep in the basement.It is kinda damp down there and i have had a few leaks over the years.There just part of my house tools i barely use.I have at least 1/2 that amount in my tool boxes in nice shape that i do use.

Made a home made Electrolysis Machine to clean any rust from tools and just about anything.So far it works great.I used a 5.2 watt and a 6 watt Cell phone charger.You can use basically any volt but the higher the volt the more you have to keep an eye on it.Yo can use 1-2 gallons of water and 1...
Ty sir.
Keeping up with the costs doesn't bother me.It costs what it costs.I got 6 times as much into RC cars and what bothers me about that is the parts break so often.At least with the mini bike everything is built real durable.
