[@cyclopsx303x2]

Ik I'm late to the comments but I think this video is amazing because I'm doing the same thing with a Briggs and Stratton motor to my nel lusso got the motor from a pressure washer looks just like that and it 5 hp I think it's the same one.

Did you finish making it? I'm planning to make one with a 8.5HP briggs and stratton motor

[@nigelcarren]

Beautiful work mon ami! 🏆⚒️🇬🇧

[@spacetrucker2952]

This is way better than those crappy little chinese bicycle "engines".

[@oiltoast3723]

It's a flat head the other ones are over head cams get of the 1950.

[@keithgavula1826]

There's thousands of motor options it's what I had available and I like the looks of the old Flathead Briggs never really had a problem with them

[@natedearyan7597]

Would you make a video of you riding it? We'd all like to get an idea of how it goes. Maybe somebody in a car following you, or around a small track. Start and stop characteristics, and taking off up hill. Top speed. Real cool idea. Thank you for sharing your ideas.

Nicely done! Love the rear pulley.

[@keithgavula1826]

Than you I liked the look of it

[@keithgavula1826]

Also allowed for the motor to be centered in the frame and not have to run any additional shaft pulley belts Etc

[@Calthecool]

Very well done.

[@lockeyestlocksmith2349]

Would like a more detailed picture of what you got here it’s great, wonderful execution

[@keithgavula1826]

How fast does it go

[@darrenrazal1190]

Hi I’m interested to buy this or the parts

[@st.paulmn9159]

No gearbox?

[@keithgavula1826]

Was built in the style of original board track racers with no gearbox the thing will do about 70 as fast as I have gone not topped out

[@ajg4542]

Ever heard of a jack shaft?

[@keithgavula1826]

I built it with what I had available at the moment it was a 0 dollar build the only thing I bought was the batter and lights. Also liked the look of drive rim

[@ok198474464]

where did you get the motor ?

[@keithgavula1826]

Its was salvaged from an old log splitter

[@SneakerGoodsMiamiTV]
