    Waking up my old Stink-E - with updates

    Hey 1KW The torque plates were quite simple and the older Kona's have a great little "pocket" to utilize. So the plates are contained in the little "Pockets" that are created by the drop outs. Once in place and tightened up, they are solid and do not move. Mine were plasma cut (not the...

    Waking up my old Stink-E - with updates

    I do indeed have the intake closer to the Axle and exhaust at the furthest perimeter. I truly don't believe it matters what side you have either one on, since both sides of the wheel spin in the same direction And being my rear disc brake is so big and basically covers the entire area of the...

    Waking up my old Stink-E - with updates

    50mph fly-by

    Everyone here makes their own points quite well and are quite passionate about their views (Freedom of speech is wonderful). On the other hand...... It's tough when people see only a very small window of a situation (such as your video) and then they are left to their own assumptions as to what...

    Look at my battery mount!

    Gotta jump in and agree with everyone here. Cover them up bro.. take the extra time and do it right. I've hit the ground hard with my bike and was SO glad everything was covered AND secure. You know what they say ...... better to take the time to do it right first, than to have to take the...

    A-Lines Abound: First ride after some major changes

    Some interesting ideas here for sure and some cool machined parts (Cha-Ching $$). keep up the good work. Never have been a fan of those "lefty's". Every time I see one, the words "SNAP, CRASH, and BANG" comes to mind. :lol:
