hey
wow its great to see a couple of members posting
jeezus i started thinking i was the only guy on the planet still
interested in these things
i mean i just checked out kanesis you tube channel and hes uploading
vids of computer hes playing,mate thats pretty fuckin sad i mean come
on you need to get outside
whats happen to the dream, you know wheelmanland !!!!

any way i gotta confess, i havent been riding in ages,
fuck these road laws,
but ive still been keepin busy in my shed
workin on a 125cc wheelman friction driven i suppose a bit like the
koosko model
ive uploaded a photo its still work in progress about 80% finished
but it gives an idea
ive really gotta paint the frame before it rusts out
hopefully this weekend,
i was too cheap to fabricate a fibreglass shell so i opted for sheet
metal and a ton of rivots
so its gonna be noisy unless i soundproof around the engine
all the rollers are individually adjustable they are mounted on square
tubing that slides into
another larger square tubing i did this because i wasnt sure how much
pressure the friction wheel needed to be against the rear tyre
any way i will post a couple of pics again when its finished
cheers lee

Well my drivers license was suspended that year that i started into
the wheelman group so free time and not working was plenty. Plus
wheelman land was at my moms house and its still there but over grown.
Problem was really the koosko could not handle the course that well at
all. not the jumps i made and some parts of the course i thought the
wheelman with the beast gp460 would be able to handle but it couldnt.
Now im trying to make a life for myself and get some kind of solid
career/income going and the job market is crap. but wheelman land is
still there over grown but still there i went through 3 chains for my
chainsaw just to get as far as i did wheelman land was a huge
undertaking for the time i had but did alot with it. I have fixed my
wheelman just to have it break again. got rollers made out of the same
stuff that the rod on the top of the koosko is made of. then the pull
start broke which on that motor is 50 bucks and the gp460 was actting
tempermental while it was working just this last time. and the frame
crack got super bad almost unridable. I love the wheelman bro i need
to buy another one but moneys not great right now. Also i have a
girlfriend and we want to start traveling the world so id like to do
that aswell. Dont think i forgot about you guys bro. Lee your still
the #1 dude i look upto as far as wheelmans go. I love benji we had a
huge fight and then became friends and he sold me my first koosko
which i rode threw hell and got stopped by a couple police just for
them to ask me what is that hahahahaha. I would like to have a extreme
wheelman made from scratch for those hell riders like me. the rat cage
is a big downfall of those models there needs to be a chain driven
like the gwheel model but with bushpig koosko frame **********WITH A
CLUTCH********. if i could get a wheelman like that wheelman land
would be back in buisness.
Love you guys Cheers mates

hi no
the motor is a chinese yamaha clone sold as : automatic (no clutch)
single speed with neutral and reverse
also from my previous experience i dont advise riding a wheelman in
reverse gear!
