the custom cub....

I really like the look of that light.

 

Its also back on 17 inch rim on the rear as the +10cm swingarm wasn't long enough for the massive knobbly 18inch tyre. Even the 17 meant I had to cut part of the swingarm to fit it.

 

Not sure if it shows, but I cut part of the middle brace out of the swingarm.
I've still not ridden it as my clutch has fused together due to being stood so long...

 

Anyway, here is where it is at now...
Its too cold to do more with really.
I need a garage so damn bad

 

So.
Update time.
This is a back burner project still.
HOWEVER...

My little helper/buttman has been assisting me with the white cub.
Which has just had some VERY fun parts ordered for.

Springer forks.
An underbody noisy exhaust.
And 2 engines. Not sure which is going where.
But here is one:

I ordered a carb too.
The other engine is a bit more sensible.
For a racebike.
You can all guess for a while.
Also pitbike parts are the UK dealer for kepspeed. Good products.

 

So the new motor is 5 speed.
And probably faster than a runner with a 180 kit....
Any guesses?

 

You're not thinking about putting it into the Tomos are you?

 

No. Maybe I will in the future. Easy job to do.

 

My new motor is getting loaded onto a pallet today hopefully.
So excited about it

 

jealous!...

 

The 190cc...?

 

Yes! 190 zongshen. Which is just a Daytona with a 2v head. Good for 17hp at the flywheel.

 

Yep I know it, you have gone all out there.. that’s going to be a bit tasty

 

Its going to be a bit errr wheeliey? Wheelieee?

 

Lol, I should say so!!

Is it going in the crosser style cub or the white one ?

 

The crosser one I think. Im not sure it will fit in the white one as the front wheel will touch the cylinder. I think anyway.

 

You’ll have to get a clip up of it taking of in the dirt when it’s done.....

 

The 140 wheelies in 3rd off the power.... might be some footage from dgr stavanger 17 (or 16?) On youtube

 

Yeah had a quick look didn’t see it but looks like a good day out, some nice classics

 

There totally is some videos of it on youtube...hahaa
