This is a beautiful "replica" ive waited for so long to see something of this magnitude done. Great work and creativity definitely would love to see more!
That is awesome the head had me guessing for a while on how you got that look from your previous video. Wish I had the spares bits and pieces to make my own. Thanks for sharing your creative ideas it's amazing 👌👍😊
Thanks for laying out the drive system for us. Brilliant. Of all the board track builds that I've seen, I think your bike is my favorite. And that includes my own builds, lol.
Way cool bike👍🏽 I have a Kustom bike I started back in 2004 it started out as a schwinne but I got carried away and chopped the frame built a tank and back fenders all one piece. Then I started to make some skirts for the bike. It got put on the back wall hanging up. Everyone ask about it even got offers for it. I made the front fender to be the back fender. Is what people don't realise. There's a brass tag on the fender that says Jesse James on it, I never took off. I'm guessing it's one of Jesse's fenders he made with his hand's. Even though I butchered it up to make it work for my build. I think if he saw how I made the seat pan and fender when the skirts get put on it all= one piece he would be cool with it. Like you said everyone has there own way of building there project as long as we get it to the finish line 👍🏽🇺🇸🏁
Very very cool build man I dig it, I would seriously restore that 1911 Harley motor of yours and throw it in that frame, I would hate to see that motor just sit and collect dust
I wish you had a diagram of everything used in that jackshaft...im trying to figure out how to utilize that bottom bracket too...the same way you did it....help plz...your bike is 👌👌👌
maybe you could make a video giving a break down on the 1911 HD engine, you are the first person that i've seen who made a video that wasn't just another show off video, i bet people would like to see the HD engine details......
Thanks for the vid. I'm about to have a crack at my first tribute bike. One of the things I'm grappling with is - engine. Do I have a non running or running one. Haven't decided yet but I have a similar requirement for the head, just as you've done with the radial fins, so that's been a great help. Cheers
Thank you very much! This was the original flywheel for this gc190. I have found others like it on eBay. I believe the GCV flywheel is like this too. Good luck!
@@tombeasley1943 that’s great! Definitely message me and I can take any additional pics you need or answer any questions. Can’t wait to see your build!
Hello how are you? I would like to ask about the transmission ratio and number of teeth from the motor to the pedals and from the pedals to the wheel, please.
@@EDGClassics Thank you very much, it is very valuable information for me, I began to build my own board track from your videos, on the other hand, the transmission system that you use to achieve a good transmission ratio seemed interesting to me, now I know, thanks 👍
I'm up here in New England ,,, How well does your jackshaft setup handle hills . We have some fairly steep ones (and roads) up here in the mountains. Just wondering if this has torque enough to pull up the hills without loading up the engine???
To be honest, I’ve not run this set up on any significant hills. I’m in southeast Texas where it’s mostly flat. You could change the rear sprocket to help with the torque but you will have to experiment to find a good cruising speed without super high RPMs.
On this bike, I removed the governor. However, on other bikes, I left it in place. It’s a personal preference really. Message me on Facebook through EDG Classics and I can send you pics of another set up with the governor in place. Thanks for watching!
Hi! I have a question, I'm planning on building one, but I'm worried about how to perform an oil change and the amount of oil necessary when a tilted motor is placed at 90°.... How do you do it???😂😅
is that motor o h v because if it is o h c you will need to put on a muffler you will burn out valves if it is o h c ..and lets see it go show some shots of the jack sharft change arrangement . cool vid
Id like to make something like this, but I need a good tutorial or guide on how to build the gearing/drive system. Do you have any recommendations? How hard is it to make a jackshaft from scratch?
Beautiful job..I am thinking about building a replica board racer. I really love the jack shaft set up. How much are you selling a fully built bike for?
Thank you very much! The price of my bikes depends on so many things. The options can drastically change the price. Fork, saddle, wheels, brakes, and even tires. You can build the me for as cheap as $1000 and as much as $6k.
The two jackshaft sprockets on the engine left drive side are freewheel. The jackshaft sprocket on the right is fixed to the jackshaft for braking and startup.
Thanks! I build them and sell them occasionally. When I find enough of the right parts to build one, I’ll put one together. I rent them out for photoshoots and things like that and then sell them. I have a couple that I always keep though. They are the ones my son and I always ride.
Can you help me out with building a motorbike? I have a standard mountain bike frame from a 1986 murray bike, and I want to turn it into something that looks like an old motorcycle but im not sure how i am supposed to do it. I already have it motorized with a 2 stroke kit but it just doesnt look the part.
You can start by bending or welding the seat post to sit further back over the back wheel and flip your handle bar's over if you have the beach style handle bar's paint your wheels the same as your frame, maybe check with your local bike store to see if they have solid red tires or black bulky tires. There's a few idea's but every one has diffent ways of doing it to make it look like an old track racer bike.
Sorry, I don’t have any extra frames. Another frame that will work is from Worksman. The Sportsman Flyer frame is made to order. They will answer the phone. Haha
i like a lot, but here comes the "buuut" . no front brakes allowed on any flat track or boardtrack bikes. most had no brakes at all. when you need to stop, you would lay it down. me, i learned to pinch the front wheel with my feet (boots) to stop. once you learn how to do that, brakeless bikes are a hoot.
Sorry but NOT sorry. I would rather have brakes on my bikes. Historically, you are correct but I’m not willing to to ride my bike on modern streets without brakes.
@@EDGClassics yeah, brakes are definitely easier than pinching tire with your boots. but i ride my upright gm all over Port Arthur Texas, well mostly just my neighborhood, but i may be a little throwed off. 😀👍
@@EDGClassics This covid has screwed everything up. Parts are scarce. Love your videos though! You've helped a lot of people out, including me. Keep em coming.
I love classical motorcycles. That's one beautiful build that can be enjoyed daily, but only looks like it should be in a museum.
Thank you! It’s a blast to ride and always turns heads.

Nice ingenuity. Whats the tube attatched on the left side of the tank for?
The original bikes had a manual oil pump for the initial start of the bike. These were total oil loss systems.

Good luck with your bike project! Let me know if you ever have any questions about my builds.
Im still lost with the pedal set up. What keeps you from pedaling when clutch is locked up. How is the pedal and jack shaft sprockets separated.
I made another video regarding just the sprockets. Check it out and let me know if you still have questions.
Excellent!
Where did you get that flywheel?
Once again, great build. I like all of your builds!
Thank you very much! This was the original flywheel for this gc190. I have found others like it on eBay. I believe the GCV flywheel is like this too. Good luck!
Can you make a video explaining your front wheel and fork setup? Love the bike
Thanks! I could probably make something about it. Message me on FACEBOOK at EDG Classics and I can go over any specific details personally.
@@EDGClassics Thanks, I am wanting to build a bike and really like the larger center hubs you're using.

Hello! One question... What is the size of the pedal arms?
They are common moped pedal arms that measure about 5-3/4” in length with a 9/16 pedal thread.
Hello how are you? I would like to ask about the transmission ratio and number of teeth from the motor to the pedals and from the pedals to the wheel, please.
Hello! I have been using a 10T sprocket at the motor, a 20-25T set of sprockets at pedals, and a 64-68T sprocket at the rear wheel. I hope this helps!

The GC160 and GC190 are designed to operate with this orientation. I have no problem with oil replacement.
@@EDGClassics I'll use a 110cc scooter motor

I made another video with the Jack shaft and drive system I’m using now. Check out my other vids. Thanks!
The 3d clutch has been discontinued. ☹
I heard that it was bought out by someone else they were selling it. I’ll keep an eye out. If I find it, I’ll let you know.

What sort of hub mounted sprocket are you using?
It is a hub mounted sprocket adapter purchased through MB Rebel. However, there are a number of suppliers online. It is connected to a 64T sprocket.
Buenas como esta una pregunta q tal funcionara con motor 3.5hp esq ese es el q tengo
Great build. Where did you get that tank? I don't think Harken sells one like that.
I make my own tank for each of the bikes. It’s specific to the frame. I usually use 20ga steel sheet metal available at Home Depot.
No more 3D CLOTH they close the doors, u r so lucky bro .
Someone know where i cant buy a 3d cloth? :(
I understand that someone purchased them and will be producing them again. I wish I knew. I had several extra that I sold relatively cheap.
