I Built a Mountain-Climbing Motorcycle for $200

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Prone to taking things literally, we shoved a wee lil’ engine into a bicycle to make a motor...cycle. Prone to making bad decisions, we also tried to ride it across a treacherous mountain pass at the onset of Canadian winter. [Details below]

    And in case folks are wondering where Grizzly Pass is? 50-34 N 122-56. North out of Vancouver on #99 to Pemberton. Then up to Pemberton Meadows, cross the river, go up The Hurley River FSR and then onto branch 12. Or head towards D'Arcy and go up Birkenhead lake FSR. There is also a trail head close to where you cross the river.

    The Makita bike was a gimmick. E-bikes are sensibly limited in speed, since the frames, brakes etc. are not up to real speeds, but there are plenty of electric motorcycles out there and coming up. When meant for city riding they can be pretty lightweight and zippy (good acceleration), just limited in top speed (plenty to keep up with city traffic, but perhaps not great on highways) and range.

    In Germany, they used to make these until the 90s, call them „Mofas“ and sell them to 15 year olds. They still have quite a community today. They are not supposed to go over 25kph, but in reality, people tune them to go way over 100 because they are easy to modify. Of course, they look different, but they have the same principle.

    50cc GP bikes were basically motorized bicycles without the pedals, some had as many as 12 gears! The final 4-stroke 50cc World Champion bike was a 2-cylinder 9-speed Honda with rimbrakes that could hit as much as 105mph in places such as the Isle of Man, the 14km version of Spa or the chicaneless Monza. It weighted around 100lbs when empty of any fluid and had tyres probably as wide as the ones you see on modern mountainbikes, pure insanity!

    I just built one of these after a month of buying extra parts, a new bike, a shit load of troubleshooting and learning to drive it, but holy shit. As someone who's never driven a real motorcycle before (I'm 15), this thing flies. If u want to get into motorbikes but can't afford it, or just want a fun project to learn more about motorbikes, this thing is so worth it. However, there are a few things u should know that I wish I knew before purchasing: - You need a bicycle with very thin pipes and a very large frame that can fit the engine in the middle, and wheels that have space for nine sprockets to fit through. - When starting the bike, set the switch on the carb to "starting more" (point it up) and after pedaling, dropping the clutch, and revving up the bike a bit, switch it to "running mode" (point to the side) WHILE PEDALING, then rev up the bike more until it accelerates by itself, and then, only then, can u stop pedaling and drive the bike using the throttle only. - if your bicycle isn't suited for this build, simply buy another cheap bicycle from Craigslist or kijiji, they are usually quite cheap and it's more safe than to potentially break your current bike. - make sure you have tools such as: Pipe wrench Chain breaker Ofc rhe basics like screwdrivers Others -Finally, make sure you learn to handle the bike in an empty street or parking lot before driving it somewhere like the road, since these things can sometimes be quite unreliable during the first few tanks of gas.

    In the world of motorized bicycles, most videos seem to be shot by One-take Zeke outside of his double wide. The production value here is so far beyond everybody else, it's kind of mesmerizing. On the other hand, there's a lot of narration that sounds profound...until you think about it. Then you're like, "I don't think that actually meant anything."

Now my favourite thing is touring on my home-built, long-range ebike. At 25km/hr and in perfect silence, I'm now even more absorbed in those things. And the fact that it's so cheap by comparison, and the technology so much simpler, just adds to the joy.
