You can get 60 mph with the right mods and gearing combination.

@jamesrussell2936 That's easy, I start with a front end that is already titled in my name or titled in the same state I live in. Whatever the front end comes off of, its insured and registered as that. Most states don't do a Vin search or do an inspection once a vehicle has been titled already in that state. I only get minimum insurance on them. Mine is insured and registered as a 2001 kawasaki eliminator 125.

@DonaldT-s5f Those motors las t forever if you take care of them and don't mod them to death. 2 of my bikes and 1 trike are in Vegas with different owners. I still have mine, and they are all daily drivers.

@custombikesandtrikes4374 I know, I changed the oil regularly on my doombuggy and I had that 420 on mine for 7 years so far. Runs as good the day I bought it.

@custombikesandtrikes4374 John the guy who told me about his friends bike, he also told me not to modify them,he basically told me not to buy the billet rod or high performance cam, he's aid you will blow you engine to pieces, he said that he had a similar engine that he bought from vegas carts that had all that stuff in there and his connecting rod almost went through his nuts on the freeway

That one you seen rides really nice and the ergonomics worked out well also on that build.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 That's awesome

@@TuffTgr Way better and far lighter than stock. Very reasonable price too.

I feel the same way😂

Yep, i barely remember that forum but was definitely probably me. Im taking a break from motorcycles and going back to my roots with building recumbent bicycles again. Thinking about making another youtube channel just for that. Ill motorize some of them with small harbor freight engines. I do love the 420cc though, for sure a work horse for daily street use!

Check out some of my other videos if you get bored. There are definitely some interesting builds for sure!

The guy that took it off my hands did put a 670 in it.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 does he have a yt channel or some pic of it would love to see the 670 chopper

That's funny because I was thinking about that as a concept a while back. I was going to have a john deere paint theme with green and yellow and build a wooden stake bed around the tank and beyond it. Effective making a two-wheeled farm truck theme. A smaller tank or flatter like a generator tank would give more room.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 First thing I did was add a pickup truck bed to my 2007 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 over the back seat and rack. Have a huge duffle bag on top, with cardboard box inside to maintain shape, to haul groceries in. On my Honda CMX450 I have a huge Sterlite black footlocker mounted on the back over the rack and seat. Been using it for like a decade to haul groceries. Hauled 4 two liters, a bunch of chips, a Hot N Ready Pizza, and some other items home in it today. I think I've pioneered a new style of bike, the Pickup truck bed bike, but arguablly I'm sure the Chinese did it first somewhere else with cargo bikes. I get to call mine a Pickup Truckbed (tm) though because I'm from the hillbilly hick south. 😛 A definite redneck thing to do, add a pickup truck bed to a motorcycle, who would of thunk it. I did, because I had a definite need to get groceries home every 2 weeks, its the only job my motorcycles really have year round.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 see my community tab for pics.... before I put the cardboard box in to hold it's shape.

All of the custom bikes and trikes are my channel handmade by me. If you get bored, flip through a few of my older videos, and you will see all kinds of these things running around.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 I'm going to do that bet that up it's good to know I'm not the only one out here

We little guys gotta stick together to build an empire.😂

Alright you say that again

I skimmed through your channel, I'm going to thoroughly check it when I get the chance!

Oh stop it

Check out my older videos to see other recumbent motorcycles I've built recently.

It was brutal but happened so fast at the same time. That hammer must have sucked🤬

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 I got lucky a few years ago with an angle grinder. It could have been worse. I had a thin cutting disc 💿 on it, when it kicked up & came down on the back of my hand slicing it wide open & knicked the bone, grinding a small bit of bone away. It somehow missed the tendons, my hand was throbbing after it stitched up & meds wore off...#GoodTimes lol Thick gloves from now on.

I've had my motorcycle license 29 years and have more bikes than I care to remember in my lifetime. I've built dozens of recumbent motorcycles more likely than probably anyone in the United States has at least.I can't speak for europe. They're all a little different and they all ride similar. But I am addicted to building, so i'm not gonna stop anytime soon. I've never learned how to edit any of my videos in all the time I've had a channel, one day I'll learn I suppose. I've been doing backyard metal fabrication for about 25 years with very little equipment. The viewers want to piss and moan because I'm not American Chopper level🤣 check out my other videos for more of these recumbent motorcycles if you get bored.

I can't wait to see your version! This has been a daily driver. I own a 2022 kawasaki z650rs also, but I still find myself riding this one more, it has a lot of miles on that Predator motor 😅

My dads bikes blow whatever you could think of out of the water

You can get a reversible clutch so the teeth are closer to the engine so it doesn't stick out so much. I tend to use the heavy duty clutches that are not reversible and only fit one way. Yes a jackshaft would help center things better.

I never claimed it was the weirdest but if you get bored check out my newest videos, there are many more of these things running around.

The tractor seat or a forklift seat would be too wide to be able to put your legs down at a stop. There's square tubing welded together holding the seat to the frame.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 I'm having issues looking up seats. What's the magic word?

@@jessetrimble7312 Are you trying to mount it to a maddog or similar scooter?

@@custombikesandtrikes4374 I have a maddog 150cc and I'm modding it for Doordash

If I had the skills to work with plastics, I would make an attempt at Akira but for now all these types of bikes will do. Check out my newer videos if you haven't already you will find newer models and even one with rear suspension that I'm currently working on.

@@custombikesandtrikes4374ive been checking them out... ur bikes are cool dood... i got 8 motorcycles but i never ever had the guts to try and build my own... i was in thailand for a couple years learning kick boxing and my license expired... so when i got back stateside in october i got a ebike so i could get around... i stil havnt gotten my license renewed yet... but i almost got enough spare parts from replacing and upgrading my e bike to make a new one and well im looking for inspiration... found ur channel and i think its awesome dood... chances of me making a e bike out of the parts i got are slim to none... but i love to dream and i love to see people make thier dreams into real life... i subbed and im looking forward to ur new vids...

If you havent already, check out some of my other videos. There are a few more of these things that are running around that i built, this is my favorite build so far!

That's why I like those motors, simple and very little to go wrong with them.

Oh yeah!

Go for it, you won't regret it!

I didn't have money to buy bigger shocks and it was the only thing I could think of but I wasn't completely sure it would work. It leaves me the ability to still fine tune the shocks.

Rubber Condoms and Nutz to spruce up your bike, priceless 🤣

You are correct, 420cc predator and rebel tank.

Tires aren't rebel though, look like off of an older Honda CB something. Smaller and drum brakes.

@@choppergirl Front end and rear tire off a 1975 Honda cl360. Check out my other videos for similar bike builds if you get bored!

Check out other videos on my channel I got plenty of these things running around. The newest one I'm building has rear suspension.

I have, check out my other videos.

The only answer to that question is because I can and nobody stops me.

swisstella

Didn't have a brand on it, just a basic version for the 420cc.

40 series that's all I know,

Not a lot of tire choices when it came to those particular rims due to the age of the bike. At this point I think he'll just be happy to be riding on new rubber and not 50 year old tires lol.

I use the 420 predator not the 212. The current one I'm building for myself does have rear suspension and dual discs up front.

Just happy we got two videos from you so quick
