This project was captured by a 16 person professional film crew and with their salaries and all the high end post production, there was only 2000 € left for the bike, purchase price included. So this will be a low budget build.

 

A killer low budget build just means better builder is doing it :drinks:

 

The metal looks thick enough for it to probably not be a problem but this adjustable bottom mount does look as sketchy as some of my own "engineering"!



Is it needed?

 

I like option 2, that thing would be twitchy.

 

"It is an international form of humor"

 

Uh huh. Well, it is when THEY do it, I guess. :fu:

 

Great stuff as always. Are you going to clean up the welds inside the tail too?

 

Hahah, funny episode, i was sat at my office desk laughing at the lock falling off after that tack weld and got some strange looks!

Must have been drunk this weekend, i didn't even notice there hadn't been a post! How did the racing go?

 

How did the racing go?

Weeeelllll.... Considering I only had about 3 laps of practice this whole year before the qualifying and the race (prepare for loser talk...) , I was quite satisfied with the weekend. I finished 9/10 and 8/9, but I was able to chase 5th place, so I wasn't a complete pushover. Also there was no snow whatsoever, unlike last year, so that was nice Next race is next sunday, so hopefully I'll do better.
Naturally I blame it all on the bike and I'm off to the dyno today in search for more power

 

Where's the next video man? Good thing i missed one while i was on holiday or i would have had nothing to watch today!

 

It's Friday. -_-

Edit: I found episode 25 on my own. :fu:

Edit 2: I'll wait for subtitles.

 

14hp at 11k rpm lol that little thing screams 😀

That's for the subtitles.

 

That thing is used in 6 hour endurance moped races. It's not bad for 50 cc's.

 

6hours on that tiny thing? That would qualify as an endurance test for me

 

Well, with a 4 rider team it's just 1½ hour/ rider, so no big deal But it's really good fun, the race really is a highlight of the year. There's actually a 6h moped endurance cup this year, but half of the tracks are part mx tracks, so we have no business there with 12" wheels, so we'll settle for 1 or 2 races.

 

Looking awesome. Keep it up, the end us near!

 

He's actually a pretty good drummer. Not sure about the masks.... what's up with Finn's and masks? :wtf:

edit: noticed Ahks avatar. You a Finn, too?

Nope. Just don't like my face on the interwebs.
The mask in the pic is one of these http://i.imgur.com/xCgLHQr.jpg

Need to fish out my shiny devil mask...

 

Gotta grab one of those with me tomorrow!

 

Fun riding video! I was thinking about this bike the other day after picking up a single myself.

( his face looks a lil funny in this vid tho )
