That's a home made gas turbine using a truck turbo charger.

Man that looks awsome!! does it get pushed along but the turbines like a jet does or does it hav a chain drive off the turbo?


speedster356 - October 17th, 2004 at 08:03 PM

No it's pure thrust, the peddles were when I built the bike as a cruiser. Haven't run this engine.


Alex Holzl - October 17th, 2004 at 08:09 PM

Vw nutter - November 2nd, 2004 at 03:38 PM

what do you guys think?


Oasis - November 2nd, 2004 at 03:47 PM

You guys are Nucking Futs: I want one...


Special Air Service - November 2nd, 2004 at 08:10 PM

You'll have to screw a titanium wear plate to your calf muscle to protect it from chain grind and swap your sprockets around for the land speed record attempt.


Vw nutter - November 4th, 2004 at 04:38 PM

its all good ive got a L plate aluminium deck that protects my ankles and so i can stand on it!
im pretty sure that ive got the sprockets the right way around dude:duh
give me a ratio of about 4:1 but still havent tested it yet!
soon:bounce


Alex Holzl - November 4th, 2004 at 10:33 PM

4:1 should be about right coz my gearing is WAY out! im after that ratio too so im goin smaller on the top and bigger on the bottom. What size motor is yours?


VWFREAK - November 5th, 2004 at 09:19 AM

You guy are bloody crazy, go sick.

Post som pics of them in action.


Vw nutter - November 5th, 2004 at 05:23 PM

well my engine is a 25cc but its got some grunt behind it!!
sure does go hard though!, im using a 48 tooth at the rear and a custom made 14 tooth for maximum speeeed!
although the ideal ratio is about 8:1 but i could only find the ones ive got. im wanting to get a bigger engine but havent managed to find one yet!


Alex Holzl - November 6th, 2004 at 10:31 PM

Yeh mines a 25cc and ive pulled the guts out of the exhaust so sounds mad, im gettin a 6 tooth made up for the motor so should get the ratio right. My mate is puttin a 100cc chain saw motor on his scooter like urs.!!! lol


Vw nutter - November 7th, 2004 at 02:14 PM

yeah now that would be sweet as 100cc !
the only thing is you have to be able to mount that huge thing on!, might be a bit trickey but let me know how he goes with it.


theverybigtallman - February 28th, 2005 at 11:21 AM

i heard about this bloke (don't know where) turbocharging hayabusas? maybe you should put a turbo busa motor in the ride-on! :mad:


Fossil - March 3rd, 2005 at 12:08 PM
