      Thanks! The big huge giant deal that I'm dealing with now is MASSIVE chain vibrations, even with a tensioner I can't keep the chain on, (and it is aligned perfectly and tight).

      @@minecraftblockychris8708 Thx for that.. I've actually been using a sprocket roller tensioner. The real solution ended up me changing the chain. I didn't use the 415H chain that came w/ the conversion kit and just reused the regular single speed 410 chain that was on the bike. The pitch is the same and it fit fine but the chain is so light it was whipping and vibrating all over the place. Once I changed it to the 415H chain, the problem went away. Go figure.

    Very cool! I enjoyed seeing how you overcame the various hurdles. My brother had a similar bike back in the day called the "Big Mo", (non motorized). I'm just getting into building motorized bicycles myself and am about to start my first build soon enough so it's great learning about all the different builds on YT and seeing what products and techniques I can incorporate into my own build. I just ordered a Micargi Rover Nx3 in metallic olive green as my base. Super nice bike. Can't wait for it to get here! I'm gonna shoot for a GX120 clone engine and a 30 series CVT with a 32 tooth sprocket. Should be a sweet ride when it's done.
    Anyway, that was a great video. Thanks!

    U actually made a mini motorcycle. My 49cc four stroke does 48mph 8400 rpm up hills . I have a dual chain 5 to 1 transmission,420 chain 28tooth sprocket on 26 inch rims . Ur transmission is 3 to 1 ,it jerky on take off because of this . If u change to a 48 tooth ur bike will actually have a higher top speed and be quicker on take off, because ur rpm will be higher creating more hp . Ur bike will climb any hill also .plus less wear on ur clutch.

      It was just the one off Amazon. It looks great and the size of the motor is to scale on the bike size but it's just not enough power for use from a a dead stop. If that's not an issue then go for it. :) Could be an excellent e-bike conversion (which is what I normally do).

And they do get 50 miles per tank full ,1 dollar lol fills it up .38 gallon tank is on that bike. Ps get a tac that engine turns 8500 ,stock 7200 underload with 44 tooth gear . Believe it or not that's a Honda 50 cc clone on ur bike that engine came on the Honda cub that did 45mph. Ur engine produces 4.2 Hp at 8500 rpm it really does.
