exhaust preferred exit

huh.... that's not quite how I thought it would work. So, do you reverse the transmission as well too?

Yes, pull the gears and flip them 180 and slide back on.

Simple as that.

I can rarely tell if trolling or not with you intellectual types.

Yes, it is called the reserve banshee engine.

So what was the difference between the crankenstein and this? or didnt a crankenstein use snomobile top end? I forgot its been so long 

[J-Madd]

Crankenstein uses an intact banshee transmission crankcase paired with a Rotax top end and rotating assembly. The cases are cut. And globs of silicone everywhere to hold it together.

 

Disclaimer: I have only seen one of these up close and apart. And it was years ago.

I've heard tell from the old timers that the old 2 stroke Detroit Diesel 6V92's will run backwards, suck in crankcase oil and run away until they scatter themselves. Obviously not the same as a Banshee engine but still a 2 stroke

They will! We had those things years ago. Every once in awhile you'd have one do it. Very easy to tell something is off as soon as it fires though!

[n2otoofast4u]

And I know this gets way off track, but all the new 2 stroke sleds fire the motor backwards when put in reverse!

HMM

Electric?

Electric?

Ha ha. SpongeBob Clay's. I never saw it in person.

[Ayesully810]

There used to be a few crankenstein vids on youtube back when I was in high school but I cant find them any more.

That green bike has always been a favorite.

 

Also, didn't spongebob use to make frames, how did that bike run?

I have the first SpongeBob frame. I bought it used almost 10 yrs ago.

 

That electric bike is heavy as fuck. Seems dangerous to me as well. I'd be afraid of a malfunction and it not shut off. I don't remember what it supposedly ran. But it didn't set the world on fire.

It's amazingly safe. No worse than anything else Electric. We only ran it one and weekend and it was so fucking cold that batteries wouldn't work well. Now all he does is do burnouts in his road with it.

Good to know. What did it run?
