For a young man you have a very impressive skill set. The fact that you're using that skill set to to build machines that give folks a glimpse back to the early days of motorcycling as also very impressive.
Don't mind all that other stuff. Anyone who will re-spoke their own wheel has my full respect from the jump. Great work, creativity, craftsmanship, and dedication.
very nice build. I noticed in a reply above you are a engineer. It is good to see one who can actually build something. I really liked your solution to connecting the drive sprocket. That was some nice bridgeport work.
Gosh i love that bike. Douglas we gotta take a ride sometime on our bikes man. Mines been working pretty good lately thanks to you. Plus if you ever need an extra hand in your work shop im always free. - Geoff
anybody that has to question something about this build doesn't get it. magnificent job man especially the way the lifan motor was fitted. cheers brotha
It's so refreshing to see a young engineer who still can visualize things..Your craftsmanship is impeccable..I wish you all the best and many happy hours motoring...Next question is WHATS NEXT ?
Fun fun fun . . . Just subscribed . . . I'm impressed with your abilities at your age . . . quite commendable ! I'm an old 'geezer' . . .ex aerospace machinist, surveyor, bit of a design engineer, rock faceter, . . .wish I had access to machinery when I was younger ! Now I'm getting into metalcasting . . .so I can make anything I need . . . who needs cash ? . . . oh yeah . . the banksters . . take care ! . . . and keep the vids coming ! Thanks
Fantastic job. You really captured the spirit, especially by building it yourself. I'd love to ride it. And thanks for using "I Remember", one of Kaskade's best.
those 125cc lifan engines are the best for small bike projects, i got a 250cc V-twin one and stuck it into my mud bike, the ones from Canadian tire with the briggs engine in it.
All homebuilt with pride , knowledge and tons of hours ,attention to detail and perfection, keep at it as you'll soon be another burt Monroe(home tuner that set one heck if a land speed record)
Loved the bike and the skill it took to build it however whoever done the camera work needs some help . I would have enjoyed it a lot more if it hadn't jerking around so much ! Other than that though I thought it was great !!
Thanks man. I checked your bike out and is beautiful. I hope to build my own engine one day like you. Ive been wanting to do it for so long now but is going to be even harder for me now i lost all my tools, No lathe or mill anymore. I know though's two combined i could fabricate a custom 1900s style engine. Ive made non working single cylinder engines before only for display. Hopefully i will do the real deal next. We all have to start somewhere don't we. cheers from Doug
Nice. I want to do one but I already have more projects than I can handle. In case you do another, websites that sell cruiser bikes have some cool springer front ends that would be perfect for board trackers.
With that kind of talent you would think someone could set you up with an period type engine and you could go racing. Might be worth the effort to circulate this video.
I love all of ur bike projects keep the good work i likes to see more beachcruiser projects im working on my Micargi at the beginning of the 2014 year Just to get some ideas!!!! :-)
THANK U VERY MUCH GENIOUS BROTHER ,ALL THE GENIOUS R NOT ALL IN BIG GIANT COMPAGNIE,YOU R VERY GOOD LEARNING ,I NEVER LEARN LIKE DAT IN SCHOOL, SO WHY SCHOOL,FREE INTERNET 4 CHILDREN GLOBALY,LIFE IS NOT JUST ABOUT MONEY,NICE LOOKING MOTORCYCLE,I LIKE THE SHAPE,NICE LITTLE ENGINE,SERVANT OF GOD,I WISH 2 SEE MORE WOMEN CREAT THNG LIKE YOU,BUT WITH INTERNET WOMEN CAN LEARN ANYTHING TODAY,LIKE I DO MY SELF INTERNET IS THE BEST TOOL 4 CHILDREN FUTURE,THANK U AGAIN YOUNGER BROTHER 2 SHARE.
Wow what an amazing build! Do you have a blog somewhere or a build thread on some forum? where we could follow your steps and get more info on the specs? specs like engine, frame, hub..etc. Thanks and keep up the awesome work!
Awesome!! Great job, really! May I ask if/how you put brakes on it? I know the real board track racers didn't have any, but if I were to build a replica (thing that I'm willing to do sooner or later) I would prefer to have some sort of braking system.

Beautiful job, finished product looks awesome. I'm really curious though, why you would make those filler plates out of brass.. only to paint them black?
Doug GREAT job ! What bike frame did you chop & modify at the start of this project. I bought the same engine with the same plan as you. But I,m looking for a donor bike?

Or that much skill in machining their own parts!
Re-spoking is messy. I want to try it someday
DITO!!! This ol boy's got the fever and the skill !!!
That first ride must have been a wonderful experience
Well done on a great build.

Your craftsmanship is over my head. Dammit.
What a wonderful craftsman you are. Looks like you are in my neck of the woods in So Cal.
I love that you made your own hub mount! That’s dedication!!

Your piece of work is the best seen in youtube yet!
Wow great skills. I love it.
You captured the essence of the early motorcycle...nice job
...Дуглас! ты молорик, отличная, кропотливая и качественная работа, удачи тебе во всём и творческих успехов в дальнейшем😉..!

The key way on the rear adapter was genius!!

Buet didnt fuck about with piss poor chinese replica engines!
Awesome build Doug
reaally nice craftsmanship! turned out great
Sweet build bro!
nice bike and shop, one day I hope to get a shop like that
Nice job. You are a very good bike builder my friend.
Skills and skills and yet even more skills.....this is what 'handmade' means...with a purpose ! Nice bike.
Loved the bike and the skill it took to build it however whoever done the camera work needs some help . I would have enjoyed it a lot more if it hadn't jerking around so much ! Other than that though I thought it was great !!
beautiful, you are a craftsman, don't ever stop what you are doing..

Excellent! You have done a really good work.
you have to be proud of that bike nice talent here dont stop your work
Very creative! like your attitude!
Nice work. Brings back memories of building mine, and I built the engine from scratch too.
Search "1908 Harley board track racer" to see it.
Quite enjoyable watching someone with such skill, though. Dammit.
Awesome build bro!
Nice. I want to do one but I already have more projects than I can handle. In case you do another, websites that sell cruiser bikes have some cool springer front ends that would be perfect for board trackers.
Impressive! Great worksmanship and Bike of course! I see you installed a 125 Lifan engine cool
lololol you DIYed CNC sprocket bracket, great job
VERY NICE WORK LAD!!!
KEEP IT UP!
Amazing job, you've got great skill

Awesome job, well done.
Really enjoyed watching that. I learned a few things too. Thank you.
Dude this is sick! Do you still have it?

Awesome. Your a mad man. Like me.
Nice skill set
You've made a fantastic job.. But you need a bigger engine installing!
Awesome!! Great job, really! May I ask if/how you put brakes on it? I know the real board track racers didn't have any, but if I were to build a replica (thing that I'm willing to do sooner or later) I would prefer to have some sort of braking system.
Amazing! 🏍👍
Awesome! Great Job.
Great video
nice build music was over kill.
Wow... That's clean

Beautiful job, finished product looks awesome. I'm really curious though, why you would make those filler plates out of brass.. only to paint them black?
bravo!!!!!Kostas from Greece!!!!
Amazing
How cool is that!
you are brilliant
You're a genius
Amazing work. Inspiring...
Inspiring,Great job
awesome!! does the motor have a gearbox? I never even thought of using a horizontal single...
Did you build the whole frame from scratch? What size and type of tubing did you use?
the frame is funky lol funky as shyt lol
wow ! awesome job man !
felicitaaciones desde aca Chile
WOW, brilliant stuff!
Good work
I admire any body building bikes remind me of my golden age
wish i had all the tools you do right now.. im young thought so it will be awhile before i accquire more tools for builds..
hi from colombia, i think you are an artists, its an amazing job, do you sell them?
Doug GREAT job ! What bike frame did you chop & modify at the start of this project. I bought the same engine with the same plan as you. But I,m looking for a donor bike?
Nice work it looks like fun
Nice project, do you have the video without all the nausea inducing special affects by chance?
What is that thing you got there in a vice in around 1:40, doings something with that metal strip?
If I had access to the milling machine and welder...Id be just as awesome! But, I don't so I can't.
I still have the mill if you want it I'll sell it to you for $800
very cool!
What style engine did you use?
