nice anodised finish on it corey.

i picked up a used Ryobi electric start whipper snipper the other week for $20, just need to find a cheap charger for it.
would be good for a direct drive bmx engine conversion i reckon
 
we have made a couple of them years ago,
you just take the long shaft off the end of the motor, and bolt a Knurled BMX stunt/freestyle footpeg onto the engine.
then mount the engine to the rear of the frame, with the knurled footpeg direct driving on the rear tyre.
they launch you hard/fast like a 10 second race car !


this is an old thread from here too-

Wow I know what a 10 sec 1/4 mile car feels like!!! That's wild! :)
You've obviously got a pretty wicked shed setup at home and a lot of time dedicated to your hobbies! ;)
 
we lined up the BMX one day with a mates Mazda R100 13B turbo,
the BMX was infront of the Mazda for the first 40 metres, here's the car a couple of years later.

my brother and i also put an engine in another bike, a Victa 160 2 stroke into my Moosegoose,
we had a Sturmey Archer 3 speed hub on the back, we clocked ithe bike at 70kmph one day.
the rear hub couldnt really handle the power though, it would blow the gears in the hub, we had to replace it a couple of times

this is the style BMX we fitted it to, was a big BMX frame but with 20" wheels, made by Mongoose.

was a pity we did it to that bike, a few years later they were selling for heaps on ebay, pretty rare too

i think i have maybe 8 whipper snippers here atm, i might have to build up another bike, a 16" BMX maybe?
