I'll tell you what, this thing surprised me today lol
I put it in the front yard to take a pic of it, so afterwards I decided I would drive it back to the shop for the hell of it. Well coming up the hill I gassed on it and it pulled the front tire off the ground! Not going to drive it anymore though, not until I weld the motor mounts in. I did cut off the old motor mounts earlier today, what a pain.

If your interested, I have a rear rim w/disc, swing arm attachment and the entire brake system for the rear off a Tank Touring 150 that would fit right on that thing. The tire has some tread left on it and it's got a larger diameter so you should gain some top end and you can go to a dual rear shock setup. I have shocks too.

Well... the engine I have did have the dual shock and rear disk setup and all but I ditched it to save weight. Running a single shock like a stock 50cc.
I am interested in the Wheel/Tire tho.... Can you post any pics of the wheel and maybe some of the brake setup and exactly where the caliper and rotor mount?? Thanks Fox!

The caliper mounts to the swing arm attachment. I'll post some pics of it tomorrow. There's a pic below that kinda shows it. I'll post pics w/out the exhaust in the way. You can use the swing arm and still stay with a single shock.  |

Im honestly just interested in the wheel then. I dont want to run that other side arm if its needed for the caliper to bolt to.

I have to cut and remount the shock bracket as well. it is too inboard on this frame for the 150 and rubs the tire. Im going to move it to behind the tank.

Here's the wheel It's dirty from sitting. I'll scrub it down real nice for you. It needs a new valve stem and some air too which I will provide prior to shipping if you decide you want it. It's a 12 inch rim with a 4.00-12 tire. The tire diameter is 20 inches.   |

Oh ya... lemme know what you want for it and hopefully I can afford it. You dont have to clean it or put a valvesteam in it if you dont want to. Its entirely up to you...
That is nice , the tire will somewhat match the front. My buddys 13" wheel I was borrowing had a very aggressive tread on it.

How's $40 + shipping sound?
Pm me an address or at least a zip code for now and I'll get it packed up and get a shipping rate tomorrow. I have some spacers for the axle I'll throw in if you want 'em.

Im just going to run the front brake. I have the hose and caliper and all for the back, just dont have the handle.
I could use those spacers. You dont happen to have any exhaust from a 150 do you? Not that I have the $$ for it right not, just curious because i'll eventually need it.
Ill pm you shortly

I have a complete exhaust with the aluminum can type muffler. The only issue is that it's got some motor oil in the muffler from an engine that holed the piston. After repairing the engine I tried to run/burn the oil out of the muffler for 1/2 hour and it still smoked like a chimney so I swapped out the can for a good one I had and I stuck the oily one on a shelf. I'm sure some gasoline sloshed around inside it will help a lot. 49ccscoot.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=genchat&action=display&thread=3419 I also have a ratty looking aluminum can muffler that needs to be painted or something. I'll post pics later... The header pipes aren't really that much. It's the mufflers that are expensive. www.partsforscooters.com/164-17_GY6_Front_Exhaust_Pipe |
