I want to build up a street legal two wheeler. All I know for sure is
that it must use the 49cc 4 stroke Honda and I want it to have front
brakes. I have never seen any DIY frnt brakes for minibikes, I was thinking
of using the entire front fork off of a Mountain Bike with wheel and brake
and maybe even suspension and mate it to the rear end of some kind
of minibike frame. I will only be riding ever on level pavement so
a variable clutch or torque converter should work to get me up
to 20mph at least even if slowly.
I know this is certainly not the typical project but it will be super
practical if I can ride on the street. I plan to put a lot of miles on
it so reliability is a must. I have never heard good things about those
torque converters lasting but maybe they have improved.
All suggestions appreciated.
Thanks and hope all holidays are joyful.
