Coyote project

[chavez62]

"I was going for Kawasaki green. I used grabber green engine paint by Dupli-color. I,m going to do a design fading into black on the main frame. I need to paint it this summer. I,m so close to being done with it."

Whats up man, its albert must say i like that green u have on ur forks minibikedude. im guna go for more of the brighter green once its all done. this painter we know is guna help me out with it and hes guna add a sparkle or something to it to make it pop! hopefully it looks cool.. weve just finished the whole triple tree jus needing to weld it together and were good. cant wait to post a pic after its painted and ready.

hey zeeman have you seen a 6.5 hp engine in a coyote? im thinkin about slapin in a predator 212 cc engine in it. do u think it would b better to put in a jack shaft or go straight to the wheel with an engine that size?

I,m going to run a 6.5hp clone engine in mine when done, If you have a original gas tank on your Coyote it should fit. If you run the stock tank on the 6.5hp engine it won't fit unless you get the smaller gas tank of the 4hp Honda OHV engine to clear the frame rails on the Coyote.

I don't have any clone engines, so I'm not that familiar with them. They seem to be very popular though. Sorry I really can't answer your question about the jackshaft. This is the first mini I've had with a jackshaft. I think it would be an advantage to have it though. I bet others will chime in. Keep those pictures coming.

i dont have the original gas tank, im rebuilding the whole thing. I was wondering if i pulled the original gas tank off the 6.5 hp engine and placed it in front of the seat and ran a hose to the engine for the fuel to flow to, do you think it would work?

a member is selling two stock gas tanks for your coyote right now in the classified section.

Id like to get the gas tank but i want to try to find a 5 hp engine that will fit, and allow me to use that type of gass tank.
heres some pics of my frame, welded and patched up.

Sand Blasted almost ready for paint just need to get 1 more bracket welded where the gas tank goes.


there was a nasty weld on the bottom of my frame from a previous crash, that snapped the frame. I ground it down so it could b rewelded. I found out it wasnt welded rite at all . but our welder worked magic though.
heres the hole.

heres the finished weld



the rear section on the left side lost a whole chunk but we got that in now


let me know what you guys think i need to find an engine that fits now

That is some nice welding and piecing in. It seems the Coyote is coming along well. I misspoke when I wrote on Misterbungl's thread. I actually did get a Tecumseh HS50 to fit in my frame. Let me know if you want pictures.
