My homebuilt 50cc Ratbike
My brother and I have been playing around and we took various spare parts around the garage and came up with this..... Sort of "bored in the garage" type fun.
We are currently trying to fab up a cooler looking gas tank than the chainsaw unit that we used.... Check out out the shower curtain rod reworked to be a straight pipe, (I keep telling him that he needs an expansion chamber on it). Loud as hell and surprisingly quick.... ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by Jared at Pelican Parts; 01-30-2005 at 08:33 PM.. |

Verycool.
Since my parents wouldn't buy (or allow me) to have a go-cart (or minibike) when I was a kid I made a cart from spare parts that I bartered. Needing an engine I found an old McCulloch chainsaw unit. Needless to say this thing was a pisser to ride. Even the 18-20 year olds in the neighbrohood loved it.
