MT. Mods

Welcome to my Project logs of 'Pocket Rocket'

What's the deal ?
For this project, i'll be transforming a brand new 50cc mini quad bike into a full gaming/show system.
I'll be removing the engine and replacing it with the motherboard and GPU's
I'll then replace the exhaust system with reservoirs and tubing.
There's still some stuff to figure out, but very soon i'll get the quad and figure out all that.

Special thanks to my wonderful partners

So the quad measures at 1 meter long, 60cm wide and 60cm tall. (Tons of space!)
One of the first things i'll be doing is removing the panels from the quad and spraying the underside of them, hate seeing that white.

time to get some work done.
After removing the engine, i had space to start working on the motherboard plate.

So i measured, cut to size, drilled little holes for the standoffs, and then drilled holes in the quad chassis, to secure the tray.

Got bored waiting for the paint to dry haha

Once the paint was dry, i screwed it all down, and it's not perfect, but not supposed to be, it's completely hidden :)

Now that it's fitted, i added the MB, and secured that down.
Perfect fit, Literally no spare space lol

While waiting for the Thermaltake goodies, i got to work on some of the details.
Like this!

I used to have a motorbike, always kept my helmets, this was an old one, So.. I cleaned it down.

I then sprayed the whole helmet black, and temporarily fitted 2 6w speakers inside the helmet (Will later affix these properly)
Video here:

I personally think the helmet adds so much to the build, Just need to decided exactly where i want to put it, front of the seat or back.

Back to work on the helmet/Sound
Sprayed the visor black
And started to cable manage the 3.5mm jack cable and power cable.

 vinyl wrapped the side vents, and cut the project name and my name, stuck on the visor.

Overall, it adds some really nice aesthetics to the project.

So far i've only played around with some stuff and can say this... Holy ####! lol
The pump looks like it was purposely designed for this quad.
It fits the build so well.

Then the twin reservoirs.... Damnn... this wasn't a planned build, meaning i didn't spenmd hours going over design ideas thinking carefully where to put stuff.. everything has gone on instinct and so far it's gone well.

It is in a mountain bike, I dare try to turn without leaning at high speed... If you do the bike, however, you can easily drive a push bike with no hands. This is the entire reason. Yes, the bike is going to turn the wheel, I'm not saying that it's not going to turn. You may be like this hand grip for dirt bike guide I'm just saying that you're really not force it. The effect on a dirt bike or a downhill bike is even more pronounced with its higher angles, making it even at low speed but more self-stable.

Dirt bike riding has always been a source of adventurous fun and moments. People of all ages like to have the taste of riding a dirt bike in their life. And kids are also not less enthusiastic about dirt bikes.

There have been introduced with so many electric dirt bikes to meet up the fancy of kids. It is also called an e-dirt bike or e-bike. But when we want to choose something for kids, we fall in a dilemma on which one will be perfect.

Thanks for this.

I am looking for dirt bikes for my son. Do you have some suggestions under $1000

The three-2nd rule increases the amount of space among groups that officially counts as a “gap” from one 2nd to a few seconds. That way that a -2nd gap within the center of the peloton is no difficulty to choose but you can get help from bikerwhizz; the second 1/2 of the peloton nevertheless receives the same time as the first 1/2.
