  • In this video I use a Swing Arm from a King Cobra 50 CX50SR, cut it, and fit it into the end of the MX Swing Arm. The swing arm is fully adjustable for chain tension. I have linked the type of swing arm which can often be found on Ebay for $50 - $65 shipped. Also in the very near future the rear brake will be offered on Ride or Die research and Development!
    All Amazon links are Affiliate links. The rest I get zero kick back.
    Buy used since you will be chopping it anyway! kingcobramoto.com/product/swi...
    Rear brake bracket coming soon!

    Suprised you didn't add a link for a sprocket. I like the idea of a bigger wheel, but id want yo know what sprocket would work, then id need to fore sure upgrade to a bigger wheel in the front! Maybe you have another video for a bigger front. Looking next!
    Great video btw! And i dont know yourwebsite existed! Nice fork kit!

    • @NicksGarageBuilds
      @NicksGarageBuilds  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Well to be honest kinda forgot about the sprocket haha. I had it made a Rebel Gears.
      Regarding the website it’s actually not mine. All those kits actually belong to a couple of close friends. I have often help design stuff when I can, but I can’t take credit.

    Love the build just wondering what rear suspension you used and what rims+tires. If I could get links too that would be awesome. Once again love the build and keep up the good work.

      Hey thanks! The rear wheel is in the description. It comes with a wheel and tire. However I had to flip the tire because of rotation. The rear suspension I will add some links. I prefer DNM or JFOYH. Decent shocks for the money

    Great video. Are you going to drop the foot pegs next? I'm building two MX650 for my son's and they both are taller. I was thinking about doing it for them.

    • @NicksGarageBuilds
      @NicksGarageBuilds  ปีที่แล้ว

      That was something I was thinking about doing next. I think even 1” would make it much more comfortable

    • @noce1071
      @noce1071 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Nick's Garage Builds i agree . On my RSF650 I just mounted 1x1 onto the bottom of the stock pegs and made them 1" wider and the ride is way better. But the way I did it isn't very clean. I still need to box in the stock tubes to clean it up.

    Great video! I am looking to also do this because it looks like a better choice than spending a fortune "for me" on paying someone else to do it. Do you know when the slotted brake brackets would be up for sale on the rod website and ball park of how much they would cost?

    • @NicksGarageBuilds
      @NicksGarageBuilds  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I’m hoping to have some available in the next 2 weeks. Not sure on cost yet but it should be cheap. Hoping to stay around the $30 mark. Ideally cheaper

    How are the tensioners holding up with offroad use? I'm building a swingarm and I'm since it's steel I'm worried about rust on the inside and seizing the tensioner block

    • @NicksGarageBuilds
      @NicksGarageBuilds  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I did actually just didn’t love the design so I never really posted it. Looking back I should have tilted it back to create a larger radius. I just had them water jetted for ease so they are all just basic steel and not painted

      Not yet. I personally put it on a couple bikes and want to test it for a bit. I also want to play with the CAD to optimize the shape and make it the most appealing as possible

    • @NicksGarageBuilds
      @NicksGarageBuilds  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For the frame of the bike a 17/14 doesn’t feel right. I have that setup as well and it works great, just looks kinda funny in my opinion

    Hey Nick, is the hole spacing on these pit bike wheels pretty standard? I bought one off eBay and I need to find a rear sprocket.

    • @NicksGarageBuilds
      @NicksGarageBuilds  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That’s tough to say. I know most the cheaper ones on Amazon are genetically the same. Resembles more of the Chinese bikes though. Can’t say I’ve bought a wheel off eBay before, but chances are all the same.

      I do not. I remember going down this rabbit hole and never being able to find any stock that fit inside of it. This is definitely all metric based stuff which is not very abundant in the states
