I'm pretty sure it will be and brake disc / Caliper will be floating for true placement always.

Rear block bearings are twin roller and spin so smooth even with nothing on them !

Front bearings I've replaced with a larger axle size ( 15mm ) and they are now ceramic !

Snomobile engines are capable of some pretty high hp #s, and with the driven mounted right on the axle with that nice wide and grippy tire, I would definitely want 1 1/4", jmo.

You may be right, we will see I guess, lol .. I'm planning 440cc

Can you explain this more ?
" The piece that slides into the frame I would lengthen so it goes to the other side. "


Ah He//. I just got it,:doah:

I've changed this design a bit and went with the brass knuckle plates.







Another thought was a Tall wing, it will be for looks more than anything but, I will make it adjustable IF I do it.

I could go 500cc and still stay fan Cooled.

But most that are over 500cc are Liquid cooled, which is OK.

However, I did not want to deal with a Rad and electric fan here.

We see how 440cc does at 40 - 45 hp

BTW, I hope to be ordering all the last of the parts soon.

So I stripped it " again "




After getting PO'ed I went basic BLACK , with a twist

Thanks Bro, The plan is to let this dry well. Wet sand and re-clear later on.

Its a little rough due to all that flake. A Wet sand and re-clear will take care of that and make a smooth glass finish. I might also blend in / fade some flames in it ?

Not sure, lots of Ideas rolling around.

Did some drive belt shopping the other day, Longest drive belt they sell for a Snowmobile.

53" long an at $112.00 ! Mocked up a axle and put the clutch on the wheel.

Just wanted to see where the engine would sit with the belt on.

Too freekin short , I'll need about 62 - 70 inches of belt...

Went on the internet hunt and found some belts, a $150.00 a belt, yikes:eek:

Got lucky and found a site where I can get one for $61.80 :thumbsup:
