Looks good. i like the long curve of the handlebars. If you dont want to get another engine, you could always add a couple of inches of plate to the front of your engine plate and re-slot it. A Tecumseh with the tank on front should bolt in as-is.

It originally had a Tecumseh 3hp back when it was new... It was also purple. But someone has already re-slotted the mounting plate, but they did a crappy job, and I want it to be as original as possible.

Well, sorry to revive an ancient post of mine, but my frame has finially been released from paint jail! While the frame was doing it's sentence, the engine was working out and recived some new clothes, in the form of a rattle can. He also improved his lungs with a Tillotsin carburetor off a chiansaw and a new home depot exaust. Then the frame and engine met and conspired with some azusa engineering parts to create the minibike! the brake cable is kind of the out cast, hes got loose ends and barely is long enough. also we have a temporary gas tank and no seat. but it drives!!

Here's some pics

I just fabbed up a airbox for it today,:hack: it's not soo good but it'll do. i was a little worried with how much of my lawn i was getting on my back and afraid some would go in the engine haha. and hey, if kbs8ball wants too make me a seat that'd be great haha. I wish other people made videos of their stuff too, specially how tos that'd be cool to see how to make a chain frame bike or somthing.

today i test drove the new airbox, and it didn't work, apparently my carb spits a little gas out and it soaked the air cleaner (a cut up piece of foam) sucked it in and choked it out.
