That is really cool! He did a great job. I liked his throttle work up. Does it have any kind of clutch arraignment that lifts the motor wheel off of the tire? I saw the hinge and wondered if that was part of a pressure clutch of some sort???
Really good to see the helmet!!!
They are a lot of fun to ride.
Here is a picture of mine that I built.

If he is interested in doing other builds MotoredBikes.c....
is a good forum for more ideas. He should share his there too.

Too funny. Now I guess I'll have to show you mine. But first I need to take pictures. I'm on the motoredbikes.com board, too.

That looks like fun. Next time I see an old chainsaw engine I will think of it differently.

That one is cool. I am sure his is a short time thing. I don't see it standing up long for use. But it has his mind going. Ron

Once he starts, it is a never ending process. He will always be figuring out improvements and changes!
It's certainly a great hobby for a teenager, and he'll learn a lot of great skills while working on his "projects".
Tell him congratulations on a great build!
