stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #1 Posted November 18, 2017 I have been bugging Charlie for years to sell me this one. I thank him for passing it along. Been doing some slight modifications and changes but the build and look is just cool. Thought I would share some photos with everyone. May name it the "Twin Killer" ... lol (inside joke) 7 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,500 #9 Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Thats bad to the bone, cast flywheel or not. I’d rock it. Would be interested in how the steering is hooked up. Edited February 7, 2018 by 19richie66 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,330 #13 Posted July 9, 2018 Here is a video of a nice pull. Need to change pulley to see if we can pick up some grip of belt as this one is pretty smooth for some reason😳 Kyle suggested we go down from a hydro engine pulley to an 8 speed which we may also try. 050052AA-4BE7-45DC-9541-478F664D33C3.MOV 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shynon 7,459 #14 Posted July 10, 2018 Keep constant pressure on the belt tensioner, not just a spring. I used to hook my foot under the pedal and pull back for more pressure on the belt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used to hook my foot under the pedal and pull back for more pressure on the belt. This has hand clutch so it is easy to push the handle forward for more pressure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PeacemakerJack 10,738 #23 Posted July 28, 2018 What a beast of a machine for sure! I love love all the custom touches but especially the functionality of it for the purpose of pulling Congrats to Little Bo on his pulling places—I’m guessing he was pretty stoked! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
