Great job!
Just use a plastic, rectangle fuel tank from a snowblower.
Sounds super healthy surprisingly
Ouch Jesus mustie watch your hands 🤦🏼♀️ made me jump 😂
More time and effort than I've ever spent on a clutch cable… Great job, as always.
For the clutch slug (lead ball on the end?) you can drill a proper size mold into some treated (wet) wood cut a notch to place the cable in.. drop the cable in the notch and pour melted solder into the sized drilled mold (around the cable) and create your own slug end… I’ve done it quite a few times.. never had one fail 🤷🏼♂️
Had one. Chibi. 60cc, 3 spd with a clutch. ..top speed was like 40 mph. Very reliable. Rode mine for years. Original seat had a storage compartment body work attached.
Looks like all those boats got away
Pretty nice 2 stroke mini bike. Those bikes like mine where made in taiwan and had used yamaha engines (50/80cc) from the YG1/YG2/YJ1. Frame and wheels are pretty similar to Honda Z50. Mine is a Gemini SST50 whit a rusted up gas tank LOL.
I Seen a tik tok video lol we’re they melted a new lead barrel on a cable always want to no how good it holds maybe try it for a future video eBay has one for 20 dollars if it ever gives u a problem no original tanks we I looked
Very Cool! Memories from youth!!The end of summer, days……..!
No float bowl stands a chance against the good ol' Mustie mallet….
Any one else notice that Tri-Stone logo AKA Mitsubishi.
I think somebody is gonna be welding up a tank, lol. It'll take some time but is definitely doable.
Here’s an idea .. use the metal tank as a mold for making a plastic blow mold tank.
best of times ty for a great video
The perfect birthday present!!!! Man I’m hyped for a nice long one
