EURON8 Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 So at the workshop theres always been this old concrete/metal saw covered in dust and looking sad. I finally decided to do something about it, so i rung the oldman and asked if i could have it for a bike motor. Suprisingly he said yes. Probably assumed it didnt work. He has a big stihl one he uses for work and it sounds so grunty so i hoped this was the same. Got it home. after i put a tree branch through the back window of the daily i decided i needed some satisfaction. Poured some gas outta the hedge trimmers and after a few goes it fired up sweet. Isnt as grunty and 2stroke pop and farty as the bg one we have but who cares. But i smoked out the driveway and neighbours back yard after a full throttle rev for 30 secs.

R100 Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Just stick a wheel on the saw. Full tank of gas. Find a deserted road, crank it up and let it rip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EURON8 Posted August 29, 2011 Author Share Posted August 29, 2011 Use the saw to chop up the bike you plan to use first. Video coming when i figure out where my phone cable is. Camera was flat and file to big to send off phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
