He's going to add tires and skid with it, not bar and cut!

Nice job Mike! Looks like its as much of a fun build as it will be to run it!!

It was fun. I couldn't quit working on it. At least now I can set it on the shelf for a few days while I'm waiting on the pipe to get here.

Really cool build. Are there any advantages/disadvantages with this type of motor? I am not familiar with it.
I am going to assume higher RPM's and more power.

Reed block allows a lot longer intake duration.

Ahh. Ok. Thanks

Mike, any chance if you have the carb off, you could snap a pic of how that reed valve transitions into the intake port?

Oh my! That's some good duration. How low were you able to go?

Don't know. Adam sent the jug and said run it[emoji1]

 

[paragonbuilder]

Very cool!

Little more work done.

Spacer made for the carb. Plate drilled and tapped. Got to make the hole through the plate for the carb bore and it's on to linkage.

Sideways balance looks off. Won't be very nimble

Oh well. I'll just use it for bucking

I forgot to put a smiley on my last post. I figure you know me well enough to know I was making a funny.



She's a way cool saw, Mikey

I know you were. Hopefully you will get a chance to run it this year.

Send it to me. My head is lopsided. It may even me out...

 

[Magnumitis]

It's alive. Got to do a few more tweaks on it and the linkage.

I bet that thing would make a mean Martini. [emoji12]

Probably would.

That would be cool. I think the only piped saw I've run was one of DDave's 066's

I didn't even run it or Randy's. Ran an 084 at a few gtg that Dave Neiger built.
