Yama Goped Project

im satisfied with the engine. and the chosen gear ratio +1 on the pinion gear from 6/98 to 7/98 anyways if anyone sees or knows of an exhaust that would fit a gp420 ( what i have) or its slightlylarger sibling a gp460 ( the engines)  lmk. ( also a gsr40 pipe would work. ) doing my best to keep the build on the cheap. will update  barring any

Cool day 3 video. At first i was thinking there was no way you'd make the turn ~1:25 then you shot straight into the grass haha

Those little beasts spin such high rpms, i'm jealous haha! Watching all these makes me want to shoot more shredped vids

[adidasguy]

he he - you're quite a terror on that thing.

Oh, can you trim that zip-tie flapping off the right side?

yeah i do. and here i am griping at squidly riders and drivers finally got mixtures almost set. so it will hold idle. albeit high. got to get my hands on some steering head bearings now. speed wobbles suck. ( noticeable around 25-30)

On the other hand, tell me how you keep your kicks that shiny!

My shoes look like hell after 2 days. Those k-Swiss?

hmmm yeah .. i noticed the whiter than white footwear too!! .. so do all the coolcatz goped gang wear imported leather "riding shoes" ?? 

[yamahonkawazuki]

no theyre new balance.  ( gift from boss) originally picked up a set of black adidas' but i ordered wrong size. ordered a 10 not the10.5 i needed. so returned those and got the ones in video. BAD choice. when i oil the chain, it slings that shaZam! onto the back side of my right shoe. lol. ill get my hands on some proper chain wax, or gun oil. or some other lubricant for teh drive chain. as of now. theres only 2 gopeds in this town. my red gtr, ( which if memory serves, is only one in east tn err in maybe 50 mile radius.  and across town, a goped spindle driven bigfoot. in knoxville theres a red sport ( my old one) and a gsr40  and somewhere maybe not far is my stolen gsr25. in parts now. i keep this thing locked down solid now.

[yamahonkawazuki]

[/img]these were my first two. the one on the right was my gsr25. it was stolen while i was at work. the ONLY time i didnt lock it down. ( it was @ work with me)

Got her tuned in perfectly ( the carburetor) i hit redline. i must replace the steering head bearings. cause i got a major case of speed wobbles. now my shopping list includes a ddm dominator exhaust, a wheel ( magnesium) and  head bearings.  ( and 1 street tire) once i get the tire mounted, am going to get squidly and do a burnout. i felt my feet for the first time in a long while today. ( diabetic complications lol) the knobbies vibrated them . felt either my feet or my shins. but vibes at that speed would ruin any video i shot.

[jestercinti]

I once went 50 on a moped.  Unstable.

There is a theoretical limit to how fast a Goped with small ass tires will go.  Just don't tear up those New Balances Yama!

[yamahonkawazuki]

bearings are near their end. stable to 35ish minor wobbles. got major ones  near 40 id say. left-right wobbles.
i bought alot of my parts from this guy. ships from san diego to east tn in 2 days. for last year if i had to grab anything ped related id check and see if he had anything.

This is my plan when i get the parts in. ( after paying bills. maybe a month from now. )

damn i want this. perhaps if someone can order it, i can trade something for it?, exhaust , wheel and tire are all i lack to finish this @ this level
