fixed the chain.
Fixed the tire.

The thing is a beast. Not as fast as i wanted but it goes like a b****.

Funnest thing ever! when revving up the bike some times it misses then the next fire is super strong. It makes the motor jump and slam back down hard. Making a super loud noise that sounds just like a motorcycle changing gears.

i was riding down the street, Right as the motor started to top out it did that and seem to pick up a hair faster.
I was talking to my friend later that day and he said "dude i heard you shifting gears! What the f*** type of bike is that???"

the plug is super old and i think it is the original. Once i replace it i will watch the color.

Its gov'ed right now. I dont want to trash the thing. But i think i might undo it some.

Its probably best to leave it limited as it has no CVT and would over rev too easy.

got brakes.

I took it for a test ride around town and now this one guy wants to buy it from me. The guy owns allot of dirt bikes. Im hoping he will hook me up with a trade.

I also rode it next to Mark on his moped and it did 30mph easy.

If its old enough to have them I would put new points and a condenser in it, at least check your points timing. Sometimes the points on a briggs will creep more and more advanced.
