  1. It's actually geared a little high,but you can ease off and then shower down on it. It does good. The first time I tried it I had the original 26" rear tire and rim on it, no brakes and had my friend follow me down the state highway on his 1500 Goldwing. He clocked me at 60 MPH...Whew what fun...Wore a hole in my tennis shoe getting that thing stopped....LOL:scared:

  2. This is one I did 2 yrs ago. 6.5 HP Briggs and Stratton engine with a torque converter belt drive. It has a 1972 TS50 Suzuki rear rim and tire with drum brakes. It will run about 45 MPH. It's fun to ride.

    Good luck on the build.

  3. I put my first Kumho on myself. Had to inflate it up to about 105 Psi. I had the wobble at slow speeds also. I put the bike on the car rack at my shop and ran it in 1st gear. You could see the tread waver back and forth in one area. I called and had my tire distributor pick it up and warranty it thinking it had a belt broken in it.....I put the replacement Kumho on and it also took 105 psi to inflate.....It wobbles the same way. Put it on the rack and ran it and it has the same tread waver in one spot. I'm running dyna beads. Smooth after you are going 25 miles or so. Personally I think it is the excessive Psi required to seat the beads....YMMV

     

    I'm still running it and no known issues.
