Probably starting the thread a bit early, but this semester in tech I am going to be building Minibike a bit like this one.
The building should be starting sometime next week as my last half year exam is tomorrow. I'm planing to use a 160 Pitbike engine, mini gokart wheels and...
Yeh true, the 17 hornets are pretty good only downfall for then is if it's windy! I don't know anything about 204 but I really like my .223. It's perfect, I have a 6x18x50 scope, bipod and sling. You can't miss! Haha
Okay hopefully should be a good motor then! I have a disc brake from my hardtail which I don't use so I was thinking I could use that as a brake, it should be strong enough. Those mini quad tires look pretty good! Heaps of tread.
Okay thanks that pisterpro motor is better then the zongshen isn't it? Isn't Pisterpro the really expensive pitbike brand. Levers are cheap and easy to get and I might be getting better levers for my big bike so ill use them. I defiantly don't want lights the less electrics the better.
I'm looking a rims and tires and I'm not sure how to tell how big they are. The ones that I'm looking at say:
4.10/3.50 tire and then it says choice of either 4 inch or 5 inch wheel.
Would they be suitable for a minibike?
As you can see I don't know very much yet :(
Thanks for your help so far!
Dad has a couple of honda pump motors sitting around so they might work. I'm hoping my parents will chip in with the zongshen motor though!
If I did use the zongshen I was told I would need these parts:
-wiring loom $35.00
-cdi $25.00
-rectifier $25.00
-carby $70
-airfilter $20.00
Is there...
Thanks a lot my67xr that will be a great help. Those ct100 shocks are a bit long I reckon but a found these one which I think might work better!

They are about 50mm shorter.
Also do you have any idea what size those shocks are and where I could get them? Should I do a build thread for it and what section would I put the build thread in?
Sweet those look awesome! I want to put this motor in it because I had a look and the pump motors which they used to have a the same price as a pitbike motor. Yeh if you could post the plans that would be great!
Well I'm going to build a mini bike in tech and I want a big motor in it! Hopefully this picture works but it will be like this one.
That's the plan as well hopefully the parents might chip in!
