The wipes come in handy when camping and nature calls, leaves you citrus fresh
Seeing those cuts on the square tube snap together on the weld table - that's precision. Very cool.
Great job keep up the good work! Cant wait to see the independent suspension setup!
Love the shop and all the cool tools you have! Keep it up!
Mad respect for the craftsmanship, but I cannot get behind these massive swing arm setups. All that unsprung weight has to make the performance of the suspension just awful. Ether way, absolutely sick setup🔥🔥🔥
That's what the customer wanted. To be honest I like independent but give them what they want. Thanks for watching!
wait for the next videos on this build
Still surprised that there is no chain /sprocket protection from hitting rocks , with your skills this would be easy to do .rest of the build is great 👍
Good point. We can add one pretty easily.
Great job on that swingarm
Thank you sir!
@@RedBeardsGaragehey brother, could you do a video about what it takes to put a non hemi head on hemi?
keep up the good work !! V twins and Big blocks for ever .!!!!!!
Those wipes look pretty good. But if you haven't got any of those around I've found that New Dawn Power Wash spray works great on my hands it's got a little bit of alcohol in it,that seems to cut through the oil and grease very well, better than regular Dawn, and if you've got some real nasty greasy stuff like stuff you find on the side of an engine block of an old leaky Ford, spray your hands first with WD, no I mean Blaster. Rub that in real good then use the Dawn Power Wash, and of course use water to get it all off. Oh and dry your hands, if yer one of those people. Not trying to be a commercial but I really do like the stuff.
I’ve been building a motorized picnic table out of some scrap metal I’ve had laying around. It’s turned into basically the size of a Honda civic lol. Do you have any recommendations for a front disc brake set up. I’m running 23” golf cart tires with 14” rims. Having a really hard time finding a hub assembly that will accept the 4x100 lug pattern.
I love watching you work
Nice you learned tig welding good work man!
cool setup
thank you sir
Amazing work
any idea what clutches were used here? I dont see any links in the description for the diver or driven clutches.
I have an unrelated question??? When will you get the WC946 cylinder head from EC Carburetor’s? I would love to see the results when installed on a stroker wildcat build,really on any engine, lol. Great video by the way!
Great video I wish you didn't have to talk so fast and I didn't realize it had 2 calipers.Not one, do you sell this like a K, I, t, if so, how much would it cost?
This may fit a workhorse golf cart. Made by easy go easy, go very interesting. Does the reverse gear seem to hold up❤❤❤❤❤
Very nice setup..
Thank you!
Man i wish you stayed by me i just got a Rotax fr125 Max engine and im gonna turbo it and EFI it the frame i have is a F1 frame its just been ran hard and put up wet 😂 thats why i got it so cheap but i should push some decent power to havs awesome cheaper drift kart
Which roller weights in the cvt are great for gokart top speed ? Is 50 or 55mph reasonable in a 170cc gy6 gokart?
Takes major engine mods to get that kinda speed from that displacement not to mention cvt tuning and gear ratio mods before a rear chain ratio is selected... Its not impossible but it's hard to do on a reasonable budget (this is coming from someone that built a qmb 139 50cc to push 85mph while still pulling wheelies off the line)
Matter of time and it's going to be the size of a original VW
You do great work.
Great work!
Wow great job😊
We want predator 670 six speed chopper build ... Like this comment if you agree ✊
Alternator kit link?
How much horsepower can that reverse gearbox REALLY take?
Your using the gearbox to go backwards to do just that. Go in reverse. Keep your foot off the floor and you could run a 999cc with one for sure.
Hey can you bring back the boat build please
Do more on the Honda talon videos!
@@chuckb9867 I thought he sold it
I sold the Talon a few weeks ago
Is there a link for that Vegas reverse gear?
It will be out in the next couple of weeks.
What do you charge to do something like that I'm in idaho have been watching you for a while.
And what do you use in your beard lol
He's done a beard product vid somewhere if you search his channel vids. Best to email him about quotes.
God bless RBG
Has the predator 224 been discontinued?
I think so.
@@RedBeardsGarageBummer. Thanks for the reply.
What's that reverse gearbox?
I'd like to hear more about it too
Same
He said it was a "Vegas Carts" gearbox. I did a search on their website with no mention of it. Looks similar to the one sold on E Bay. But those are only rated for around 16 HP.
I will be making a video in the next week on it. Stay tuned!
I disagree with swingarms, especially when you have the powertrain on the swingarm. Single axis actuation and all that unsprung weight? Terrible. Nonetheless, I'll drop this comment and a like to help you fight the algorithm. All hail the algorithm.
You have to consider the advantages of swingarm-type rear suspensions. They are very cheap, very easy to fabricate, very light and very strong. There are "better" designs available, sure, but that is not the point of a swingarm. This system exists purely for getting reasonably good suspension with a stupid simple design.
@@BunkerBlogi feel like old mate is assuming it’s single axis only.
@@BunkerBlogI’ll also add to your list, this will fit in a crate.
If the choice of engine is wide enough to include v-twin shifter motors I’d seriously consider getting one shipped
@@dylanzrim3635 Ah you can see it! for what we want it to do, perfect.
So many negative comments …
Not negative just those that wish they were in the position to do the same thing 😂 brotha unfortunately that's the way of the internet. Lol
@@jeffaragon sad
Have anybody thought of putting a 670 on a Harley?
Yeah just need to find a good frame to do it with.
@@RedBeardsGarageA Honda Shadow is basically a Harley. Plus much cheaper and easier to find for a feller to follow and do one for themselves. JS
Due to weird 40 years old rule here in the UK I would love to see a big bike build ( no road tax or yearly inspection on 40 years old vehicles)🇬🇧🇺🇲
First
Used to always look forward to your posts. Seems like anymore,you forgot either where you came from or who we are. Most of us are working out of a small shop or our garage. You used to connect with us. Not so much anymore
I believe he talked bout this in one of his videos. Greg is constantly improving himself and his work. He is accomplishing all the things we small shop people want to do. Im glad he is knocking out these higher end builds. They are exactly what we would like to get to build ourselves one day and when that time comes we can look back on his videos for tips and info.
@abels_04 I appreciate the love brother. Your comment is exactly what I would want to say. I really appreciate your support.
Also @abels_04 email me please.
@@RedBeardsGarage where do I find your email address?
Nice. Brickman Gokart ShopGaytan. In Pasadena Tx. Great job
That is totally sick....talk about over build. You could drop a bomb on that, and it wouldn't scratch it. Very well done. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see the rest of the build. = )
Thank you sir! Took a long time to get to this level that's for sure.
