Plattsy Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Even I get scared when there's a bike around me. You never know what they are going to do I just stay as far away from them as I can all you can do is look over your shoulders when changing lanes and indicate more than a second before you do it man... i alsways check by looking over my shoulder, but still the odd bike does get lost... or comes out of f**king nowhere.

Sunkist Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 To open a can of worms, bicycle riders piss me off. I know they have a right for whatever f**ked up reason to be on the road, but then in peak hour to sit smack bang in the middle of the lane and not let cars pass. I have major urges to run them over Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/379859-vic-wasteland-thread/page/2381/#findComment-6950315 Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty nm35 Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 lol thats awesome pics?? After 4 years finished I finally got it down to my mates bike shop to get the frame powder coated. I will post pics when it's back if anyone is interested. It took 4 years to design and build too, many nights of discussion over bourbon cans... etc... The motor goes through the 9 gears so it's quite potent for it's engine size and only 25kg. I used an 8 inch downhill rear end, 8 inch triple clamp forks and made the frame to suit out of chromo. Anyone that doesn't know what a downhill bike can do should google search, it is an indestructible dirt bike you can throw easily over a fence. 6 piston Ti Hope brakes can stand it on it's front wheel as I found out the hard way. No expense spared on this one. Shame only tight arses want to buy motorised bikes... I only sold one down spec'd version. There is much more work out there for performance vehicles.

xALmoN Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 hope brakes are hopeless though. i'd stick with the old school shitmano 4pots for better braking performance. and i'd like to see this motorised pushy too.

They were the only floating disk brakes I could buy back then, and with a good sintered pad in them they are easily the best brakes I have ever used. Solid disks would warp in no time at that speed. You are welcome to take it for a spin if you like. Break it you bought it.
