Nice buggy...but yeh..slightly unsafe. Maggotman for darwin/natural selection please?

Half on topic: I have a buggy that uses a yamaha postie bike engine with proper brakes suspension etc.. but I snapped the cable right near the carby so I need to get a new one. Might post some pictures..

Completely off topic: My friend who scuba dives sometimes said he'd see if he could rig up his scuba tank to my Co2/Air engine I built.. A remote test of course, but I'm not expecting to get it back in one piece. Just as long as the piston doesn't seize up it'll be ok. (kind of related to your steam motor).

The bike is cool, I'd have gone for a neater fuel tank..

Woah, that is hella ghetto! But, I have to give you props for performance. a 125 is flying for a kart that size. Now, if you could extend the shifter... That way you won't burn your forearm accidentally.

something safe or with breaks.

I think your engine will break i made a air hogs style engine and i got 12000rpm out of it but it quickly craped itself .

Bad news i stacked it onto a kerb and the aluminum bearing holders on the real Axel snapped so it looks like i need to find a new axle

looks nice though, very creative.

If I offended, I apologize. It just reminded me of things I used to do with my buddies.
