You could probably put a K-91 in that new truck you bought!  Wouldn't go very fast or haul much of a load, but would be unique!

It actually motivates better than I would have guessed.

That’s what I thought when I saw the guy take off. But I’m thinking any incline would clobber that motor. Probably locking it into 4x4 would snuff out that Harbor Freight motor :lol:

I’ll give him an A for effort. Now imagine if he put a larger V-twin in it. Granted its still under powered but for a kid to learn how to drive in or just put around a farm, it would be cool. Whole lot better than just junking the truck.

I don't know about you guys, but I was smiling the whole time I was watching that video.  Well done, and thanks Mike for sharing!

Pretty amazing what a little gearing will do for a machine!  I’d like to see that Toyota on 44’s sling some mud with 14 ponies under the hood!

I think the Toyota with the 44s has a 13 hp in it. Pretty ingenious if you ask me.

Gotta give him credit for putting that together.  Never would have thought of making a yard buggy like that myself.  Nice to know there's still people in thier teens-20's that would rather do something like this than sit inside playing on their phones all day
