Dang I got props from Bryan?? I must be doing something right!! :laugh: Thank you!! I'd love to see what you would come up with, but knowing you, you would end up cobbling the whole engine out of scrap obscure parts laying around...........hey wait I'd really like to see that!! :thumbsup:

JDogg, your shop is freaking me out! How do you work like that? All nice and clean and everything put away! Who's shop is that really? Any bad ass minibike builder has junk piled up and dirty floors!

Bike is looking great! Very nice work Mister!

Qlooking good , I like those rims . Are you going to leave that exhaust up in the air like that ?

Thank you David!! I'd like to lower the exhaust maybe 2''s .....I like the upwards slant but it is too close to the seat!! Do you think a slight cold tweek here and there might do the trick without ruining the cheap chrome or kinking the pipe? Would like to hear your thoughts on this Sir!!

Thanks Eric!! The guy that bent it up for me is a good friend of mine.....I can probably talk him in to bending you a frame, but I hear he is real busy with an awesome build off bike of his own!! :laugh: :thumbsup:

You might need a set of wheelie bars before you call it done. :laugh:

Thanks Pat!! We will see.....do some testing when its all done.....hopefully not as I like them compact!! They only go as fast as you twist the throttle though!! :laugh:

Funny that you mention this Eric!! I have friends come over and they always comment on my garage being neat, tidy and organized and I just don't see it.....always seems to me to be something else that needs reorganized or a complete revamping!! Oh well it does get used a lot and I really enjoy having the small space such as it is!! Thanks for the ribbing as usual and the kind words my friend!!

Cold tweek I'am not sure , those pipe are paper then and could wrinkle . I think with a little heat you'd be fine but then it may discolor the chrome .

Hey David thanks for the input!! :thumbsup: I thought about heating it and if it discolored I had some leftover header wrap, but went ahead and chucked it in the wood vise and bent it cold! Actually worked pretty good....no wrinkles or other problems to the metal or chrome! I think I could have bent it a little more with no problems but I will wait and see when I get a little more work done!! Not a huge difference but at least it is out of the way of the seat!! :scooter:
