that is one sweet ride! it would be worth every penny!

[@m4gunner25]

@HoonMediaTV outstanding! he does some great work! ill be waiting to see a demo of the the reverse option.

[@HoonTV]

Hi Gemma, everything on the buggy was custom built by James, so there's nothing off the shelf. James is build new faster ones now and could ship to the UK is he's keen

[@MrGrshields]

nicest buggy iv'e scene, hope your hinking about production numbers, cause this is what iv'e been looking for for a long time, good quallity, and stable, engine options and shipping State side, really nice,....

[@Customwinder1]

Very cool mate that thing is movin out!

[@adammetelski3165]

That's a good idea to put the clutch on the shifter handle

[@Murry25]

VERY nice camera work!

[@CepeMediaSpain]

You guys should sell it worldwide. Here in Spain I'd buy one for sure!!

[@Jazz3006]

Clutch is in his hand. I think the two peddles on the left are for rear steer using brakes

[@dannychiguina3962]

Awesome 👍. Build guys 🤙

[@VitaliyBondar777]

a good machine! made with soul

[@motorsportman1]

what a beautiful bit of gear!!

[@toddjensen9582]

Need one!

[@NO-background-music-in-videos.]

Not saying he does not. another poster (SuperBmxbadass )asked the same question I had. At :17 in the video. Then you did a great job of answering it by going "HUH" like you had no clue, so I replied with what the poster was asking. But the better answer would be the moly tubing is tough to bend or something to that nature.

[@i2aspire]

man now I want one

[@medicolas]

I think they are referring to the way the top control arm is kinda fileted at the point where it meets the threaded insert for the hiem.

[@sprintcarNL]

you should put some bearclaws tires from a quad, your traction when increase with a 100%. but only if you drive a bit more dirt.

[@CuSToS93]

@Sloth112 its a bike engine from the yamaha YZF-R1 put out about 170 hp

[@bozotheclown5224]

VERY cool! What race organization/class was this designed to compete in? I've been dying to start my own side-by-side around a cbr600 motor to race and this is EXACTLY the style and size I've had in mind. Phenomenal job, it is perfect!

[@stetlerb]

Why does it look like there's a Clutch pedal but the clutch is on the shifter?

[@HoonTV]

@Sloth112 nup, all built by Grooveryder Fabrications from scratch. They normally build drag cars

[@HoonTV]

@MrGrshields @MrGrshields this has now been sold, but Grooveryder is going into production building full comp spec Hayabusa powered buggies. They're gonna make this one look slow!

[@HoonTV]

@joshk525 2003 I think. It originally had an FZR1000 engine in it, but he got the R1 and wanted it a bit more late model

[@brianpittman4355]

nice vid. i gave it a thumbs up. added to favorites and passed on through fb.

[@Duffblue]

Thank you for explaining!

[@thesloweg6]

you ever put paddle tires on it and take it to the sand?

[@Docv400]

Looks like a HELL of a lot of fun. Just one question; Why use 'car' controls when you have a nice Bike engine in it?

[@oaney]

woah, hes haulin ass out there! must know the track well, sweet vid

[@thesloweg6]

00:50 dem some perty lookin welds

[@ActionHeinz]

Nice welds

[@robertlipiec6575]

Sick machine .!

[@mr5litre304]

@HoonMediaTV Yea, Forest looked familiar thats all

[@santhoshktm]

hey...its great... wishes from India...)))

[@joebarone3272]

dang this thing looks like one of those buggies off of the video game dirt or something

[@luckybear0301]

cool car! i love it

[@wolfman5494]

Steering wheel's on the wrong side :3

[@finlay230]

sweet buggy !!!

[@m4gunner25]

does it have a reverse gear?

[@fullboost]

Great video mate

[@elizabethcarderon8674]

quiero los plano para fabricar uno identico desde republica dominicana

[@Jazz3006]

No problem :)

[@fivestarbitch334]

Sorry I just re-watched the video and no realize that was stupid question. I paused it at 1:45 and the disc looked like a belt. It still looks different, almost like some type of hub in between sprocket and disc. I'm just looking for any alternative that will allow me to turn on pavement. Thanks nice buggy

[@phrracing1]

when will this Hyabusa one be ready to see?..also is there any chance you could post up a video of the actual build

[@NO-background-music-in-videos.]

Why would you built a A arm by cutting it and welding in the bung that way. Most just bend the tubing and have a straighter shot at the mounting point.

[@tiagotalhante69]

what wheels you use on this machine! congrat. nice job

[@technician2585]

I was wondering what set up you are running for a rear end? its chain drive, but independent suspension.. did it come from a quad? I recently acquired a wrecked fzo9 and was thinking of building something like this buddy to have a bit of fun with..

[@HoonTV]

It was all custom built

[@HoonTV]

@m4gunner25 not this one, but he's building new Hayabusa powered ones that do

[@Duffblue]

not clutch? you just have to let off the gas when shifting? very cool!

[@NRKEY27]

ive wanted something like this for years, how much they go for with a way smaller cheaper 125 or 250 and also can u buy them in a DIY kit or anyone know of any in australia you can........

[@lowrider232nc]

hell yeah

[@gemmamassey7894]

is it advisable to weld it yourself or get pro to do it? yes my partner is keen hes wanted one for a while now hes going on bout i wanna build one to lol. what metal was used for it. also my partner has sent a message to u on facebook. how much did it cost to build it and how much is it to order one from u? could u send the plans over so i can give it to my man as his birthday present and let him get on with it lol.

[@HoonTV]

@NRKEY27 This one is currently for sale, 250cc would be pretty boring I reckon

[@marcossotorojas1460]

esta excelente muy bueno y rapido

[@jeremiahjohnson8916]

Is there a way of making it awd all the time?

[@HoonTV]

2 engines?

[@jeremiahjohnson8916]

@@HoonTV No just one.

[@TheWALKER321]

looks dangerous

[@fivestarbitch334]

What type of rear end are you running? I can't really tell but it appears that it is a belt... Positive traction? I have a very similar buggy but a R6 engine, can't turn good with posi trac. Looking for any other options... Thanks

[@HoonTV]

lol, buggy was very strong and if anything only ever broke a few CV joints.

[@chrisbest1000]

by the looks of the welding it seams alright, it may be the case why hes selling or sold it :/

[@Seba788]

Some photos or video with a new product?

[@ibrahim-zo4ix]

On the top it said for sale then can i have it

[@HoonTV]

Check the date when this was filmed

[@user-wb6dr7gx4z]

CoooooooooooooolLLLLL

[@demon4efte]

Awesome buggy. :) What are those quick release fixings you have used and where can i buy them? I NEED them for my buggy.

[@evilguigui21]

The thing will be rusted out pretty quickly without any paint to protect it Awesome buggy though

[@kitler01]

nice how much did this best cost you

[@ldmcnutt]

Sounds like it has a hard time putting power down. There is constant suspension chatter. Is that why you sold it?

[@HoonTV]

This buggy sold a long time ago because the owner (we don't own it) was starting to build new Hayabusa buggies with billet reduction drive gearboxes. Not sure about suspension chatter, it worked very well when we tested it. Power wise I was good at getting the power down, but it would slide when wanted

[@ldmcnutt]

Suspension chatter is usually caused by too little rebound dampening. And if the owner wanted it to oversteer on turn in, you just go up on rear ride height or increase compression dampening. That is assuming it had an LSD and not open diff. Seems like a waste of time and money to start over when all it needs is some suspension tuning.

[@HoonTV]

+Larz let's not be rude now Larz. The owner builds drag cars for a living and built this for fun to take his kids for rides. This was the first time it'd been given a decent thrashing and of course suspension tuning could be done. He had the car for another year afterwards and raced it a handful of times with a few wins before someone offered to buy it. That's why he wanted to build a newer better one with more power an an in-house designed and built CNC machine reduction drive.

[@ldmcnutt]

+HoonTV Let's not be rude? I think what I said is a fair assessment. You said the owner didn't like it because "it would slide when he wanted". I'm assuming you meant it WOULDN'T slide when he wanted it to slide. Not sliding can be changed with suspension set up or with different tires, like paddle tires on the back, changing the dampening, or increasing rear ride height. Is that a good reason to get rid of it and start over? No. Not unless there are other issues that you didn't mention. Even having a cnc'd gear reduction can be solved cheaper than starting over.

[@Purpose_Bilt]

That chatter could be the go-pro. you hear it pretty often when they are in the case.

[@Rolfstaaltje]

Nice nice nice! :o

[@user-zl8pb9mf2t]

сколько стоит Ваше творение? и как с Вами связаться?

[@BlackoutBogard]
