James Hughes just gotta turn when the car lets you. My older cars without power steering were a breeze to push hard once I drove it for a day. Why? Because you feel the road in your hands. You feel it trying to lose traction not just flat out losing it then shitting the bed. In this case it might be the right application. But the classic steering damper set up would do it surely

Awesome buggy! But you upshift too much and then lug engine at pow rpm too much.. It’s a motorcycle engine. It’s ok to run it over 3000 rpm, in fact lugging it around is actually worse for it. Rev it out man!
@jlucasound
@jlucasound 5 жыл бұрын
It needs shaft drive, reverse, and lower gearing. (Hence the higher RPMS, which I agree are the friend of this engine). I love these V4s. Bitch to work on but smooth and powerful. Dual range trans would probably be a bit much, and probably not needed. I guess it depends on what he really wants to use it for. Where he is driving it now, I would opt for "Mountain Goat" ratio. Like the KTM 175 I rode in days of yore. First gear would make grandma yell, "Can't this go any faster? I can walk faster than this!" She had a "walker". With tennis balls for feet.

Dang man...that thing was made for those trails! It’s definitely a big buggy but it looks way smaller when it’s out there. I think people thought it may have been too big just because of how it looked in the garage. Pretty sweet though, definitely would outperform some of the side by sides that cost 10k more than it 😂

BBR!! Hey guys! Isn't he good? You guys are just as great. Love the Wankel! Epic. This Buggy is, I think, his best build yet. I see the weak point in chain final drive. I realize a shaft setup would be very involved. But, has that stopped either of you masters (Build Break Repeat and rather B welding) before?! :-) (Wishful thinking; I don't have to do the work). It would be a challenge. It would also provide the room for gear reduction. Hint, Hint. ;-) ;-) And reverse.

Very cool, Chris! There’s no better feeling for a builder than when he can see his creation working as he drives it... The articulating suspension, the shifting mechanism, the steering components, etc.... such a cool feeling of achievement, especially when it doesn’t break! I always remember my first rides each time I complete a build.
@LowGearMedia
@LowGearMedia 5 жыл бұрын
Just a suggestion for the rear suspension and limiting straps. I noticed that you are hitting the limiting straps over mild soft bumps causing your suspension to stop way too soon, this at high speed bumps can cause your rear to bounce around and causes poor if not dangerous handling. Try mounting the top of the rear coilovers lower and loosen the top collar to get the same ride height but more down travel. You have huge coils and should be able to keep those rear wheels on the ground unless you are hitting jumps. Other than that and the "break your wrist" steering this build turned out great. Keep it up.
@kx519
@kx519 5 жыл бұрын
He really needs to lose the upper coils and go with a pillow soft tender spring. And raise the overall height a few inches as well. The front seems to work great though. The geometry is far more reasonable.

Agree. But first I'll say that's a huge smile on your face sir. Good win, good proper shake down run. Congrats on that. The smaller kinks will get worked out, no stressing on those, and no stressing on YT comments. The steering rack might need more ratio so you can control the wheel more. It might also need a steering stabilizer like ATVs use. I have a Denton stick style, that might be easiest to mount for your application. I'm not going to fake knowing more about steering stuff, just spitting those two ideas out there. As for the suspension, I agree with these guys and attach myself to their remarks in hopes you see them. Your ride height shouldn't be where the shock is now. It really should be centered in the shock stroke, or less. Yes, this would mean working on mounting and yes that would suck, but this rig is worth it. Properly weighted coils and centered shocks would help even more with your overall ride feel. You think it rides good now, spend the extra video centering the shocks. Everyone can wait, you are in it for the long haul. Can you cut the drive chain shorter? Stripped it down after the upper shock relocation and more shake down runs, paint or powdercoat the frame clear. Sucker looks great as is. Thumbs up. Freaking good on you dude.

But if you go bigger you may need to figure someway of cooling the engine off quicker, no room for a waterpump I guess.

His chain setup is pretty bad, but it has nothing to do with the master link falling off. But i guess you're too smart to admit beeing wrong.

Nice build man..some small advice , on the master link , make sure the open end of the clip it facing to rear of direction it moving, or get a chain that has a braded link & forget the clip type ..good chain installed correct will do fine. Electric steering is way to go. And a front wheel drive trans axle can be a cheep reverse. Great job otherwise, It wont hurt to rev it a lil. Happy trails ..

Been sittin' out here in the bleachers, munchin' my popcorn- enjoyed the build, turns and all! Your winch idea was the bomb; a couple of operating tactics that could help would first, run your cable through the rollers that came with it- it will help laying the cable back on the reel evenly. Unevenly begs a cable foul- you can't reel out or in because it may wreck the cable, and two when you do the under the car and on- continue to run the cable through the rollers- that is the way the winch frame is best adapted to hold the strain. Third, if you aren't having fun why work so hard at it! A few bits and bobs and you've done it! BTW, the folks saying gear it to get a higher base rpm are spot on- that one isn't a 10k screamer, but it will cruise all day at 6k- and find a way to reroute the chain with less total free slack and gentler angles on and of the chain wheels! I still have more popcorn so I'll shut up ! Dynamite rig- just awesome- and it didn't spend it's first day in the park mostly broken- dynamite!

It's good to see you graduate away from those junky lawnmower motors... I hope you never go back. Japanese motorcycle engines are the way to go my friend. whether it's a 450 quad or a 1000cc R1 engine... or even a 250 2 stroke... again, I hope you never go back to those lawn mowers. lol.......... also, SnowMobile engines are next level... I'm running a buggy about like yours (2 seater) with a 500cc Rotax engine.. and it's great.... So get yourself a 500cc or bigger and you're golden.

Really admire what you do without any help mate...you just get on with it..over and over and over. Kudos! ..that must have been a blast getting it out on a track, and outa 1st gear!...great build for something that you're making up as you go along. Lot's of good comments on here from other crew who noticed the carbs out of balance, the fuel tank as a heat sink, loom protection, chain being wrapped too tight around a 10 tooth sprocket then doubled back on the idler like that.. your framing looks great...next buggies are going to be supajuice!

That could use a steering dampener stabilizer thing. I have been nay saying on this build from the start and I still think it is 200-300 pounds overweight, but it is still pretty impressive I will admit. It looks like it would be more at home in wide open spaces.

GT1Man the kpi is totally off. That's the problem. People including me pointed that out in one of the build videos. He knows about it but didn't fixed it because it would require a complete redesign of the front suspension and it was too late for that at the time.

Another suggestion. Old school. Make a mounting point for the hook in the rear and run the winch cable under the chassis. Tighten it (the cable) down. That way, you can pull yourself out (of a mucky situation) from the back. Just like when you winch it on to your trailer. If you need it in the front, disconnect and pull it through to the front. You already have the roller in the front.

Great work, very nice. A radiator from a small car will help. The v4 1000 Honda is carrying alot more weight, and is pulling lower gearing. You have plenty of room on the frame behind your head. Probably enough for two fans and a small 4 core radiator will settle the over heating issue. Cool buggy!

That engine was designed for road use where a lot of air would be flowing over valve covers and the entire surface. You’ll have too take extra care to insulate fuel lines etc where that buggy would shine is a sandier smoother type terrain where your speeds are 40mph and above. Great work. You need more radiator more fan and higher speed.
