...but hold on tight - just fine on glass smooth roads, but not recommended on anything less. :grin: Felt like 100mph. :cool:



I ended up with the 17t counter sprocket and 28t rear. The 17/24 rear maybe would go a little faster, but only under perfect conditions and it took forever to accelerate. The loss of "rideablity" on it was noticeable.



The 17/28 combination is very usable in traffic, it held a steady 40mph up a slight grade in fourth gear which really surprised me - I was expecting 25mph in third. That little thumper has surprisingly good torque.



Lots of "full sized" bikers (or should I have said PLUS sized) pointing and laughing. Glad to have entertained them for a while.

6.5 hp with 110? You could have 7-8 hp with a TB 88 race head. But still, nice bike minus the seat.


I was originally going to go with this 13 horse OHV and do a standard mini bike build up on my own hand built frame....



...but when I got the 110, wiring harness, keyed ignition switch, CDI ignition, turn signal flasher, rectifier, starter solenoid, both grip sets with switches, hand levers, kick start lever, shifter lever, throttle, horn, tail light, headlight, turn signals, speedometer and throttle cable, brake cables, carb, intake and electric start for $410.00 delivered to my door I could not resist... :grin:



I can't think of one of these components I did not have to modify - but if it was a stock CT70 this stuff would have bolted right on in a heartbeat.



Unbelievably I got GREAT customer support as well from Welcom To WEB Imports LLC. when I had a small problem with the wiring harness and a missing component that was supposed to be included in the package.

Is that Ronald McDonald getting a happy meal? wow 55 mph on a hardtail? Must have been scary.

R. Miller...Is there a parachute under that huge seat structure?

Hmmm, a rocket powered ballistic parachute on the back is NOT a bad idea! (probably would work better than my brakes in a panic stop!!)



Awww shucks, you're just jealous since it was 21.6666667 degrees Celsius here while I was out riding yesterday having a Mac attack at the drive through.



That's 71F unless you're a Canuck HOSER from the Great White North, EH??? :grin::grin::grin::grin::wink:



(I lived in Kelowna for 7 months a few years ago with all the rest of the commie pinko tree huggers, :wink: during the summer)
