125cc BIG WHEEL DRIFT TRIKE BUILD PROJECT

[@samgod]

The monotonous, deadpan narration is just perfect. You're obviously into it, but couldn't sound more bored in the project. Very nice job.

[@Tomc8030]

That’s a great build! Looking at doing something like this for my grandson…. You guys set the bar at a total new level! Thanks for posting

[@davidszakacs6888]

Excellent presentation! No stupid music or unnecessary narration. Nice work!

[@rickjames4630]

Sweet build!!.. I love seeing a father and son doing things like this these days. Its rare and a great bonding experience. Keep up the good work yall!!

[@balabay77]

Seth M Thank you sir for kind words of support and glad that you liked our build. Hopefully, when my kid grows up he will fondly remember all the effort we invested into our projects. Cheers mate.

[@kennyh5083]

Very nice build! I too am building one, and using a steel tractor seat, (with custom pad and backrest) and a 125cc manual 4-sp engine (didn't come with electric start! Boo!) and I am also mounting the engine in the front frame, BUT, I am also mounting a 212cc Predator engine in the rear for a booster engine (when necessary) as this Trike will be a country back roads traveler, and will have larger trear wheels like a 4-wheeler in the back, and a large chopper style front multi-spoke wheel in the front! Yea OK so it's a kids Big Wheel on steroids! But hey I'm a 68 yr old kid, so what do ya expect! Vrooom-Vrooom-Vrooooom! Jus practicin'!

[@rodrigoponzoni6446]

Bom dia, Estou montando um para dois lugares, para passear com minha filha. Gostaria da sua opinião, nesse caso é melhor por o motor na frente do quadro ou na traseira.

[@jeffreywhite7657]

[@marcost847]

balabay77 Yeah! Thank you so much!!! Happy New Year for you too 👍👍👍

[@markkeeton9357]

I love the fact it was a Father and Son project !! Neither of you will ever forget that quality time together. You did a good job Building it and it looks like it was a lot of fun to ride. I’m proud of you. I’m curious to know a total price of the project and I would like to know what brand of motor and wheels (parts breakdown) and where you purchased them at, I would like to duplicate the build with my son.

[@balabay77]

Hi Mark Indeed, it was a lot of fun building this project with my kid and I hope that in retrospect he will appreciate all the quality time we spent together on all of our builds. This particular drift trike came out really cheap for us because we owned a pit bike and a go kart. Yanked the motor from the pit bike and stole the axle with wheels from the go kart just to make this project. After we had our fun with this trike, we disassembled it and installed everything back on the pit bike and go kart. Things that we had to purchase are piping for the frame, seat, front tire, gas tank and exhaust pipe. Roughly speaking we spent around 200 for entire thing (not including child labor lol) To build something like this from scratch you’re looking to spend anywhere between $800 to $1500 depending on how fancy you want to make this thing. To be honest with you go karts are so much better in every category than this trike. Good luck with your project and let us know how it turns out. BTW engine we used is a 125cc SSR fully auto. Cheers.

[@jgonzalez8250]

That bike has lead in the paint!!!!

[@TheGreatSnafoo]

Looks like a lot of fun, low profile so won't roll. drifts great too. like the rear brake, nice touch.

[@balabay77]

Mr. Minacious Thank you sir, glad you liked our project.

[@collinblake9957]

The trike looks awesome! That just don’t seem like enough motor for all that metal and that motorcycle wheel. I’m a big guy, so I decided to use a 140cc.

[@balabay77]

Collin Blake Lol yeah this trike is kinda heavy but it was made for kids so I guess 125cc is more than enough to have some fun. Good luck with your project and let us know how it turned out. Cheers.

[@byronj.guevaralopez3515]

Thats really cool. Can you please post some comments or a video on how to find the sweets spots.

[@balabay77]

Byron Guevara Sweet spots as in good places to ride a go kart or trike? We usually use google maps satellite view to scope out sweet spots to ride. I’m sure you’ll find empty parking lots in your area. Good luck.

[@byronj.guevaralopez3515]

LOL no sorry, should have been more specific. On minute 03:01 I believe you say "I found a sweet spot for the wheel" or maybe it was ''a swing spot'' for the wheel. Which I am assuming it has something to do with the balance of the wheel or its rotation? Again when you found a ''sweet spot'' and welded the hangers to the frame on minute 05:17; Im thinking its what you meant for the distance between the hangers and the engine. Thank you for the Reply.

This is awesome. But like others have said maybe lighter wheels. And I think for me, personally, I would put a bit more angle on the steering.

[@joelsilva1591]

Excellent work, my son was encouraged watching you and your son working together. can you share where can I find the engine? and the size of front wheel?

[@balabay77]

joel silva Glad you guys were inspired by our video. The front tire is from a Harley Davidson bike. Size is 130/90-16. The motor can be found on eBay or amazon for around $250-350. Thanks for watching and commenting. Happy new year.

What I can't figure out is why are there 2,700 thumbs down on a video as outstanding as this one. It is just bewildering. I see it all over youtube. What do people gain by doing that?

[@brianb5779]

great video. What did your rake angle come out to if you don't mind me asking.

[@balabay77]

Hello Brian B I really don’t know what my rake angle was because I didn’t measure it but my goal was to get the front wheel as close to the frame as possible without rubbing on the frame. Our previous trike rake angle was awkward and the front wheel was sticking out too far so this time I made it much closer to the frame. If you’re planning on installing pegs on the front wheel than you’ll need to play it by ear. Good luck
