    Do you feel like a 4” backspace on the rear wheel may have centered it out? Would it have clearance?

    If you plan on riding it on the streets most states require front and rear turn signals. You can actually get a ticket if you get pulled over for no front turn signals.

  • @ManuelGutierrez-be1ci
    @ManuelGutierrez-be1ci Рік тому

    Why not put the motor on so you have the center stand from the motor to help hold the bike up. Electrical should be the last things to be put on. The main things that should be put after the frame is put together is the forks then the motor then the front wheel. Then you have a rolling bike you can move around if needed. Then you do the electrical and the rest of the components. The reason for putting the motor on after the forks is because the motor has the center stand. Makes it easier to work on.

  • @ManuelGutierrez-be1ci
    @ManuelGutierrez-be1ci Рік тому

    Always put it on something to help putting it back together easier. Work from one end to the other. I like going from back to front especially on a scooter because the motor has the center stand and has the most weight.

  • @ManuelGutierrez-be1ci
    @ManuelGutierrez-be1ci Рік тому

    Mistakes made on putting the forks in or front part in was not putting some grease in the bearing cups. Then putting loctite on the locking nuts for the steaming. You don't use loctite on the front steering. You only use it on bolts and nuts like on the frame or anything that can rattle or shake loose. The forks don't need loctite.

  • @stevethomas6994
    @stevethomas6994 2 роки тому

    It makes no sense doing any of this... You are swapping out a quality engine for a POS. If you want sh*t, just buy a 150cc icebear and mod it. You'll spend not even half the money. Sure, the Honda frame is better, but I would never put a Chinese engine in a Japanese bike. Shoulda went with a Yamaha engine. Modifications would be worth it and the outcome would be a much higher quality, longer lasting build

      @@trentdavis431 for one the bead is never gonna seat properly, tire beads are a specific shape to seat and seal properly, you lose any kind of sidewall support, the tire simply not designed for it.. you will have a smaller contact patch, aside from having rim protruding out from the tire itself is dangerous especially on a vehicle meant to lean... now I understand it's a grom, but still wouldn't want to lose a tire at 50 mph because the side wall slid off whatever it's sealing against, tires are not just a Ballon to carry air pressure..

    I noticed that the throttle locking nuts are both together. They are supposed to be one on each side of the plate where the throttle cable goes to the carburetor and that secures the throttle cable so it doesn’t move. You should fix that so it’s secure the way it should be.
