    V-Plex driver question

    Picked up this very nice condition V-Plex TC driver with 1'' bore the other day. Fits great, looks great but isnt there supposed to be a spring up inside where the arrow indicates? I get no resistance when I press in that half of the pulley. So if it needs one, how do I open it up...

    Heald Super Bronc question

    What is the difference between a VT-8 and a VT-10? Is it just as simple as 8HP verses 10HP? Was the electric start optional? Thanks for the help. Doug

    Clinton carb question

    I have a model N carb on Clinton engine that I am trying to get going. When I pulled the bowl off of the carb, there was a strange metal piece in the bowl that I am not familiar with from doing Tecumseh and Briggs engines/carbs. It is round, and has a square cutout (it is nearly the...

    I'm back! lol Rim Question

    I haven't built a think since 2011. I'm feeling the bug again. In 2011 I was buying these rims with tires on them for under $50. Does anyone know of a inexpensive place to buy a 6" rim to fit a fat tire? I'm going to take my time on this build and make it my "one" nice...

    My Sears Roper Question

    New to the forums and picked up a Sears Roper off CL. It's in pretty good shape. Some rust, pitting, etc. not the stock motor and the PO added some metal straps to extant the engine plate (maybe another issue down the road). It had the high speed fork option which I bent back to shape on a...

    Briggs Raptor alcohol to gas conversion question

    Hey y'all, I just scooped up a Dover Power Briggs and Stratton Raptor alcohol race engine on eBay and was planning on converting it back to gasoline. I was told that it's just a matter of jets but I figured I would ask. Plan on putting this in either my Easyrider or Sensation

    Rupp seat lettering size, Roadster2 brake light switch, chrome fender question etc.

    I picked up a nice Roadster2 with a working headlight system :-) It needs a brake light switch. There are just two wires hanging near the brake lever. I see a Roadster2 has a different part number for the brake cable. Is the switch built into the cable? What years used the small seat lettering...

    Tc88 belt question.

    I have a Tc88 on my bike and I measured the old belt it is 5/8" thick and I'm getting 27 3/4" around the belt. I have a comet belt chart to look at but the closest measurement on the chart to what I'm getting off my old belt is 27 3/8". So my question is over time would it be possible for a 27...

    Clutch lube question

    Hi, first time posting here but been doing lots of reading. I recently put a HF 212cc engine on a Doodlebug and the clutch has the sprocket facing inboard (facing the engine). How do I get to the bushing to oil it? I can't even see the space in the clip.

    Manco 4" wheel spacer/sprocket question.

    Do the 4" wheels use a spacer similar to the 5" and 6" ones for the sprocket? Or just stand offs? Does anyone have a spacer for a 4" wheel or know the length of the spacer? Does anyone have a sprocket for a 4" wheel or know where to get one?

    Manco trail cat fork question?

    Has anyone ever seen or heard of a trail cat with a chrome front end that was original. Are these original or did someone strip them down to bare metal and maybe chrome them. I'm pretty sure they are chrome and not bare metal though cause the frame is quite rusty but the forks are not nearly...

    Harley X90 Air/Fuel mixture Screw Washer Question...

    I am a proud new owner of a 1974 Harley Davidson X90.. After cleaning the carb I can get it to run with the Choke pulled up but it dies as soon as soon as I close the choke. The mixture screw does not have a little rubber O ring and small washer on the end... I know not all carbs do but the...

    Trail Horse light question

    I'm adding lights to my trail horse. I've seen a lot of light switches for turning on/off the lights (hi/low beam). Got my tail light installed but wondering how to hook up the brake light. Did the trail horse mini bikes have a brake lever with a switch that triggers the brake light.

    Torque converter question

    Would it be pointless to put a torque converter on a stock predator engine that still has the governor? I'm assuming that it would just get me to the governed speed quicker.

    Wheel question

    I have what I believe to be a Carter Super Wheel 2 seater kart. I am working on getting it put together for my daughter for Christmas. I was measuring the rear axle and it appears to be a keyed 5/8" shaft. I have been looking around and for the life of me cannot find wheels with a keyed 5/8...

    An old maverick question

    Hi all, new to this. I just joined but have been looking here for a little while and came across an old 1969 maverick 50cc frame. I'm just wondering if it's worth anything or worth trying to restore it with parts or to just sell it. I've found a few parts but not anything like a tank or engine...

    Tracked mini question

    I've seen the builds here and on Youtube. What have not seen is what would the top safe speed using these Snow-Blower Tracks? I'm not talking the street dragsters nor jumping the Grand Canyon , just a good off road tracked mini speed to get there and back in one piece.
