Why did you use the rear assembly for the front wheel? All you need is a wheel assembly with bearings right? What's the motor from? Pics of your rear axle setup? What type of bearings in the rear?

looks like an atv motor like 200cc

your steering is going to be suuuuper fucked. don't expect to be making anything close to a sharp turn with that steering tube angle.

not knocking your design, I just wanna let you know before you let her rip.

other than that, god speed!!!!

>>971644
Its 49 cc

Thats why I put stuff here before I'm dun look for any additions and flaws. I got more pics

I think the back wheels are too close together, it will just tip over at moderate speeds.
also that front wheel will just spin.
also i wouldn't be surprised if that chain snaps.
also you're gonna want a chain guard fro when that chain snaps.

second this

I think you should make your seat close to the ground for traction/drag (I don't know the difference, can anyone explain?). I think it would be best to sit somewhere above the rear axle and move your engine a bit under your seat, or more forward, or a bit sideways. Maybe remove the suspension if you'll only be driving on flat surfaces.

Im gonna expand on what >>971678 said. You know how motorcycles and bicycles drive straight an upright all by themselves (if they're above a certain speed)?
You should go and read about motorcycle or bicycle frame geometry and really apply yourself to it until you understand what rake, trail and caster angle is and what is their effect on steering.

Notice how it take almost no steering input to keep a bike going straight? It's going to be exactly the opposite here. You're gonna struggle to just keeep it going straight and this thing wil do everything to fuck its course up.

Else off the top of my head:
>what are front brakes
>what is front suspension
>what is ground clearance

go to colinsfurse youtube channel and look for his drift tricicle im building one yours project is very simillar to his

>>971583
this is not going to work.
not for reasons others have said. but because the front end can't take the stresses you will be putting on it.
you know that is not a captive fork right? the bolt cavity is meant to point down. so when you hit a bump the wheel is forced against the frame, not shot out the front like yours will be. also do you understand how large a motorcycle axle is? I see a nice steel mtb in the background why did you go for some shitty 10mm axle when I know you have better parts.

Traction is the friction between the ground and the tires ie how hard it is for something to start sliding, drag is air resistance. But yeah it seems like having a lower center of gravity may prevent tipping over.

I can't wait to read about this in this news.
I hope you don't plan on turning quickly or stopping
