Chassis / Motorcycle brake disc on transaxle stub
« Last post by Lee Barker on November 07, 2022, 10:59:36 am »
Howdy--new to the forum; looking forward to access to the wealth of knowledge here.

I am building a parade vehicle from a riding mower. It's a great combo, because the mower is made for low speed and tight maneuverability. So max speed might be 25mph or so. I am building on a square tube frame I fabricated.

I do not intend to lock the rear end because I don't want to lose the maneuverability. So the brake:  Can I put an 8" disk on the tranny stub for a hydraulic setup? Seems that would be easier than two discs on the back axles.  BTW, I do have room on the axles for discs because I am using kart 4x4 hubs with trailer wheels and tires.

Thanks for your help. I can include pix if that would be helpful.

When George Herrin passed this place got quiet, when Bert passed it got a lot quieter. Yes you both are correct this is a great place to learn, sell stuff, and have a good time!

Kohler Engines / Kohler 25hp hard starting and back firing
« Last post by palskidoo on September 22, 2022, 09:13:52 am »
Hello all,
I have been having issues with my command 25hp starting. The first start is always the worst, it will crank and crank and crank, all the while backfiring in the intake with flame coming out the carb.

I am running a nikki black tube carb which was cleaned thoroughly
valve lash is .004 on the intake and .006 on the exhaust
fresh spark plugs
stock internals (aftermarket rods and pistons)
stock timing (per ARC flywheel) ---could the timing be off?

I was able to run a buddies "stock" BP and it would just fire right up and purr. I'd like to get mine to start as reliably.

Looking for a output sprocket set up for a peerless 700. E.c. doesn't seem to have the quick change hub anymore. What's everyone doing? Are you running homemade one or factory peerless stuff?
