Stop Moving!

I finally got around to drilling the holes into the tensioner that i needed to, because if I just left it as it was any longer the chain would be able to come loose and shatter the shell. Also it locked up the bike and it was just all around a bad thing.

Gas Leak

The gas tube that runs the gas from the tank to the engine has been becoming looser and looser, so i decided to stop a problem before it happened and just zipped tied it down.


Further Break Problems

The breaks I purchased would not fit on the actual bike, because apparently the frame only works with specific one made for that brand. So I will need to drill holes into the frame to be able to fit any improved break system onto the bike

Project Initiation Document

Project  Document
DIY Motor Bike
2/25/2018

Project Background and Information.
The project that I will be doing is I will be taking a normal bike and applying an engine to it. I will be doing this as a learning experience with mechanics, and to have a mode of transportation while I am saving up for a car. 

Business case/ Benefits of doing this project.
The benefits of doing this project will be I will gain knowledge on how to set up a motor bike, have a mode for transportation, and having a hobby that will probably last me a couple of years in order to get it perfect. 

Constraints
The bike has modifiers that can make it Faster, but using those will require me to take off the muffler. And the muffler is the only thing that allows me to hear while on the bike.

No longer in danger

I finally managed to drill the whole in the tensioner so it will stop getting loose, and the chain will stop falling off. I used a self tapping screw to make my life easier.

Let's take it off road

I want to get 28in tires meant for a bmx bike so I can take it off road and go down some dirt trails in it. As of know it has street tires, but if I get the bmx it wont slip and slide everywhere thats not a paved surface. Besides that the bike runs good and everything staying in place.

A shift in an important piece

The tensioner on the bike keeps coming loose. So I need to drill a small hole and put a bolt in there to make sure that the grip is stable. When this comes loose the chain gets too floppy and falls off the gear. This is a problem because that can cause a crack in the shell that holds everything together .

Where were goin, we dont need breaks

Everything on the bike is good except for the fact the it has no breaks, the seat is falling off, and i need to buy some more of the lock tight for the rest of the bolts that I ran out for. Besides that I runs nice and it goes pretty fast.
