[OLDSCHOOLHARDKNOCK]

I like the bird flippin one. Nice stance,

[FlatBroke]

Cool lookin mini rides....

[slo]

fkn DOPE!

since i build lowrider bikes i can relate diggin the springer front end one!

[Impalarodder]

I love the use of the springer forks, i build lowrider bikes too, never really thought about adding an engine to one of them...pretty sweet looking, nice work man

[minibikedemon]

thanks for the input guys

pics of what you built....i got a few...

didnt mean to take over the topic,....

[UNDR-AGE]

there all sik bro, i have one myself, ill try and get sum pics up

[rondon]

cool bikes, what kind of drive do they use (some kind of centrafugal clutch??) im building a stretched , lowered, rat vespa with a 4 stroke twist & go motor ill stick some picks on when i find out how,im going to build a one with a diesel motor verry much like the motor in yours, been looking in to racing cart drives but not sure they can handle the diesel power

[rondon]

25879here ya go still a little bit work to do but hey its hollidays

[dball]

right on man, i finally had to make a post and give a super sick thumbs up, thanks for the ideas, now where to start?

[dball]

hey minibikedemon, tell me more about your minibike frames, did you weld them or buy them from a custom builder. i must build one too!

[Farmrat]

I'd be interested in seeing some more pictures of this bike! I'd love to build one and ride til my kid starts riding! haha if you have any more pictures or build pics, let me know!

[minibikedemon]

thanks for all the feedback guys! sorry i havent had a chance to log in for a while.. but yes i do build all of my frames i use a little harbor freight tubing bender and a little lincoln wirefeed welder.. i use 1"od tubing for the frame and 1 1/2" for the backbone or down tube on single down set ups.. its a fun hobby and rather cheap, once you build one youll want to keep going its addicting..hahhaha

and yeah ill see if i can dig out some recent pics of the springer bike

[minibikedemon]

and all my bikes use a centrifical clutch and most use a jackshaft so i can change my gearing rather easily all my bikes do anywhere from 45mph to 75mph my fastest one did 80 which had a jr drager engine with a salsbury clutch that ran on alcohol

[HotRod Hooligan]

Very kool !

[rondon]

hey minibikedemon i would love some information re your gearing & jackshift to poss achive 65/75 mph im thinking of using a diesel motor (10-13 hp) running a 10inch back wheel maybee with a 400x10 tyre, im going to transplant this into a vespa frame ( with the same modifications as my vespa in the pic above,, backend removed & new subframe made up ) i see from your pics you run the centrafugal drive to another gear then run that gear to the back wheel .i will use a similar set up but i dont know how to calculate the gearing & im not realy sure what a jackshift is . id realy apreciate some close up pics of that if poss thanks man
ps awsome fab work on your frames etc ive already posted a pic of one of your bikes on a scooter forum for fabricators & tuners all the guys there were impressed

[rondon]

just done a little research using the interweb , i know what a jackshift is now (was going to use that system just didnt know what it was called) still not sure how to calculate gearing tho

[minibikedemon]

ill see if i can get you a link.. but compgoparts.com has a nice gearing calculator which calulates rpm and mph

[ryan k.]

those are awesome

[minibikedemon]

here try this out http://compgoparts.com/TechnicalResources/JackshaftRatioCalculator.asp

on a diesel engine ide say to gear it pretty high cause it would have alot of torque but not alot of rpm

[minibikedemon]

here are some more pics of the springer

Comical indeed.........cool little cruisers you have going there.
I guess my kids want me to build some for the summer months.

Sick! We didn't have mini bikes like those in my day, and I'm not that old! I enjoyed the hell raising more than the riding half the time.

[minibikedemon]

all we do with these things is raise hell!! the cops dont like them much.. suprisingly we've never been ticketed just lots of warnings..hahahha

Good luck and keep it up!

[daddysbluetruck]

Those are killer dude!! Do you have any up close or build pics of the rear? I am wanting to build one but I want to make sure I have a good set up.

Thanks.

[RIKROD]
