    Did he say, “Predator???” LOL! Handlebars need a riser.... tank sits higher than the bars... level it out... coming along nicely!

    the panels below the seat, maybe paint them white? add a little number on them like the racebikes used them for?
    maybe change the colour of the engine/tank to mach each other?

  • @mattshearer89

    The tank and bars look a little funny in combination with eachother.
    Flat bars maybe?

  • @bryduhbikeguy
    @bryduhbikeguy 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Glad to see you guys are all Ok! Footpegs at the rear axle?Perhaps set the Hand-grip parts of the bars at least 6" forward of the triple tree so you lay forward without twisting your wrists to breaking position.?Your build,so do what pleases you.Have fun guys.

    Man, if the gas tank was just a bit flatter instead of being so tall itd be PERFECTLY scaled down. Good job.

  • @terryj257

    Will oiling be an issue with the engine tilted? Will the oil level be effected. I would have just mounted it level.

    • @curiousfang5044
      @curiousfang5044 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm thinking the same thing. Those engines are build to be but flat, not at an angle.

  • @PhatPhinx

  • @mikemay1922
    @mikemay1922 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You need to set the foot pegs back to the wheel it would be a more comfortable placement and correct for the cafe style🏁👍🇺🇸

  • @lennym1273
    @lennym1273 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Too much chop on the handle bars, and still hate those engines with the rear facing head, just looks goofy, actually saw one guy where he put it facing to the front (don't know how he did it but he did and looks real cool)...

    I am curious about two things. I’m new to restoring but I’m working on an old mini bike. I have a predator 212 that has a gas and on top of the engine. Can I just remove that and have a gas tank like you did here? Also how do you get lights on a mini bike with no battery. I assume I could weld on a battery box and install one but what did you do on this bike? Any help is greatly appreciated. I’m learning👍
