Had a frame with no engine and a spare engine so i put them together to make this. I know the engine is a bit overpowered but oh well lol

I need to figure out how to build a seat for it because the motors to big for the old seat to go on it but i don't mind. i want it to be easy to work on so taking that seat off opens it up more.

Over head view The engine runs to a tranny then the tranny runs to the axle. Its a 4 speed with reverse

And more redneckness zip ties holding the gas tank and throttle/choke cables again only temporary. it needs a link in the chain but i temporarily fixed that with wire lol came apart 5mins later

Should extend the steering wheel, for better comfort. I was LOLing big times at the first sight of that.  Do you also plan on locking the diff? If you do then you should add a wheelie bar!

i am going to pulley swap it. it isn't pulley swapped yet it needs a chain first before i pulley swap it. i want to make sure everything works right. And i'm going to make a wheelie bar i just haven't done it yet. i want to make sure it can do wheelies before i make one.

1:1 will give you wheelies all depends what gear you wanna do wheelies in :p but I suggest a large diameter pulley so you get really good belt grip

4" on the motor and 5" on the back would be good.  I wouldn't go any bigger than that for a stock peerless 700. I would change the sprockets on the axle.  What size sprocket is on the axle??
