Love it...Purchased my first Midget in 1976...3500$ new. Presently driving a Z3 BM trouble U...nice as well purchased a few years back with 27k miles...but lacks that wonderful raw feel of the Midget.
I forgot to mention: Your MG is absolutely brutal...sounds like it wants to go and go. What a nice job you did. *****Where did you get the Instrument Cluster ( on driver's side, single unit. )??
I miss these days where someone just grabs a camera and records life. All modern videos are like highly-edited documentaries and life stories, with just drops of action sprinkled in.
More on the build ..ive got a 77 midget n eng is ceased..think this is the way to go what are u USEING to connect and or trans or I use of both so you have a rev.gear..lots of ???.need answets
I'm wanting to do something like this. I plan on leaving the car transmission in and replacing the engine with a 1300 Hayabusa with its transmission. So example:you want to go forward select a gear 1-5 on the car transmission before taking off. backwards? Select reverse. Then to take off and drive you shift the bike transmission 1-6. The bike engine and transmission joined to the car transmission with a drive coupler,splines to go over the splines on the car transmission then the other end of the coupler has a sprocket to accept power from the output of the bike transmission. You most likely would not be able to shift the car transmission while moving because it's a non synchronized transmission but it would still be having the effect of 2.5x the hp and 6sp sequential manual from the engine upgrade and having an effect of 5 different drive ratios from leaving the car transmission in place...oh yeah plus you still have reverse.
Sam Boofle fastest street bike you don't have to.sell your house to buy. There is one powered by a dodge viper engine and another powered by a jet engine. I know jay leno reviewed the latter.
Yeah I saw that review, and I've also seen a pic of the viper one now, but the busa is a bike that is mass produced. Also they're pretty well known I'm a car guy and I know the busa
I knew someone who put a V6 camaro in it. That thing FLEW!! Awesome build love it’s speed.
toothless grin is priceless!

Awesome build! Nice work!!!
Guy on left looks like Jason Statham from the side lol
Duke Buc I thought the same thing
Guy on the right looks like he knows where the local crackhouses are.
@@elonmust7470 was hoping no one had beaten me to this comment
Dude looks JUST LIKE statham.
Excellent! Post up more on your build.
Great idea. Hopefully they totally upgraded the brakes!
very brilliant sir no loss you do this
MG Midget, best car ever built, nice set up
Bike engines need to be REVVED!
How does this engine fit and what transmission are you using?
I forgot to mention: Your MG is absolutely brutal...sounds like it wants to go and go. What a nice job you did. *****Where did you get the Instrument Cluster ( on driver's side, single unit. )??
The cluster is from a hayabusa motorcycle.

Sounds like it needs a little more flywheel.
Sounds like you and 22 other people don't know what you are talking about
What kind of transmission and how did you link it? Any video of engine compartment? Nice job.
Greg Beckham yeah I have a similar question does it have reverse ?
The engine and transmission are unit construction. I would imagine that they just linked the primary drive gear to the axle with a chain drive.
Needs more cowbell… Just kidding but would love to see more details on the engine
Louis CK & Steve O’s big adventure! Hahaha there’s just layers and layers of WTFness to this video but I ain’t mad about it.

Is it actually fast or does it just make a lot of noise and rev really high.
did you watch it lol
Great fun.
Great car
I have a 383ci sbc in my bugeye
I bet that's more fun
Very trick!

geeezzzz sounds like a weed eater
Please tell me the red button are for NOS🤤
Probably the horn.
Engine?
***** Ok thanks
Its from a turbo hayabusa, which I think is the fastest street bike you can buy, but don't quote me on that I'm not 100%

The driver sucks in driving manual
It might be the transmission... who knows what was paired to the motorcycle engine.
Que feos cambios de velocidad haces aburridon el video video chafa
I'm not impressed
They went all of 45mph lol
Ruined a perfectly good classic for no good reason
Clutch slipping all the way...lololol
Just 2 domesticated partners out for a drive .
