Degrease, Wire wheel the welds, Then clear coat. It looks awesome in raw steel, You just need to stop it going brown and flaky. :)

@esqueue 5 лет назад

You are the harder on yourself than you should be. Fact is that more than 90% of people who watch your videos absolute love most of your projects. The problem is that people who dislike them are louder than us. Your tires are fine as putting on bigger ones will introduce more gearing issues not to mention adding more unsprung weight. Yeah, I did want to see you take it closer to redline but you are still doing shake-down runs and it would be smart to take it easy until you iron out all the issues (like batteries dragging on the ground😉). This is your show and you direct it how you see fit. I and many of trust that you know what you are doing and will keep us entertained. Thanks for the documentation on many awesome builds and I hope to see more of them.

@tstricklin853 5 лет назад

Agreed 👍👍👍👍👍

@johnc6466 4 года назад

I agree

@Green-Mountainboy 5 лет назад

The tires are fine. People saying it needs bigger tires are just thinking about looks. Bigger tires will be heavier, Slower with more strain on the engine and entire drive line.

@EddSjo 5 лет назад

I actually think it looks nice like it is, the tires aren't comically sized and look very proper for the size of the buggy.

@mopedmessiah 5 лет назад

Wth??? The tires are fine!

@thegenerousdegenerate9395 5 лет назад

Not necessarily. There's options out there to mitigate the unsprung weight. Besides, we don't even know if heavier tires will be an issue.

@nialpmatk04 5 лет назад

Too big just looks dumb and breaks things easier

@jerrywooton5025 5 лет назад

Moto_919 bigger tires might be heavier depending on the tire but it being slower is not true it would be faster smaller tires would make it slower with more acceleration regardless that street bike clutch is going to go before any real strain hurts that engine I guarantee the first time he romps on it hard that chain tensioner is going break or the clutch slips from him making it so damn heavy

@joew2303 5 лет назад

Just a suggestion, but you should install seat belts before you go off roading. Are you planning on putting sheet metal sides and firewall on? Bigger tires is only going to make your gear ratio even worse.

@WarefareModern3 5 лет назад

Joe W It sounded to me like he wanted more speed with his current gears. Meaning it’s geared too low. Bigger tires would actually increase top speed.

@crxstalline_ 5 лет назад

I completely agree. Basic rule of thumb for me is Roll cage = seatbelt No roll cage = no seatbelt. In this case he has a roll cage so he ought to put a seatbelt on that thing.

@gregsturges5833 5 лет назад

Dude this thing is awsome I've followed the whole build and the fact that most all your parts like brake rotors and cv shaft is all hand made and machined by you is just awsome there aren't many people learning the trade of machining and fabrication

@williamnelson2332 5 лет назад

I think that thing turned out pretty sweet. It really shows how wide it is on the road. As for everyone that has to say what's wrong with, please post videos of the buggies you build that should obviously be far superior... I think you built something to be proud of. Keep up the good work

Wow, look at this badass cart you've designed and built from scratch! So impressed watching this series. Traditionally a sequential shifter is back for up a gear and forward to go down a gear. When you're racing, you'll see that the weight of your arm under acceleration/deceleration favors that geometry. Keep up the good work and be safe.

Could you use the bike vin that the engine came out of and register it as a motorcycle?

@spinichi 5 лет назад

I have a similar buggie. When I first got it ready to test drive i was convinced it need bigger tires. But, i decided to wait. Had it for years now, off road almost weekly. Glad I didn't get bigger tires. Tire size can dramatically change handling, especially if you don't have power steering. Most people run larger tires for form not function. If your building this to have fun the most important thing is confident handling. Don't go bigger unless it is actually better.

@nicolashoyt5341 5 лет назад

Should put signals, windshield, wipers and a few other things and register this thing as a kit car.

@AYVABTU001 5 лет назад

You're doing GREAT kid! You've really come a long way since you started and I personally like your builds better than some other channels who shall remain nameless... I think your next machine is going to be on point. Your biggest hurdle atm is transmission. So long as you consider the trans prior to starting the next build all these gearing issues should not be a problem, the rest is falling into place for you.

@Ratkill9000 5 лет назад

Gun metal grey with black accents. May want to look at taller tires in the future and maybe a jackshaft to help with gear reduction more. This thing is cool though. People on mini buggy forums love the buggy builds Chris.

@kiwozif1 5 лет назад

what the.. just said the same colours,, before I saw yours

@ActivityPhoto 5 лет назад

There is nothing wrong with the gearing you just need to put the engine into its power band. I never saw you get even close to the red line of this engine, thats where its power and your speed will be. Also the transmission in the engine is a constant mesh design, no need to clutch with every shift,just let up a bit on the throttle and grab the next gear.

@97TRAKIN 5 лет назад

I remember when you did the self propelled mower with a seat and steering modification; now look at ya. Awesome evolution!
