I had this mini bike for the last 18 years and decided to finally replace the very tired 3.5hp engine with the very common Predator 212cc. Then things snowballed out of control and I started modifying it because the 72 tooth rear sprocket basically made it a wheelie machine, and practically unusable (hence the name death machine). On to the pictures.
How it began:
Old engine removed:
Ghetto exhaust, when the master link gave up on life:
New exhaust, with removable muffler, (the PBR can didn't last) waiting for the 54 tooth sprocket and new chain:
Waiting for my package of Mega Jet kit, new spark plug and OldMiniBikes muffler to come in the mail later today.
Future plans include billet rod, flywheel and to remove the governor in that order of course.
