Louis's Genuine RoughHouse50 upgrades

[Louis Angel]

Ok, continuing on with my custom GY6 Roushhouse,
Since I try not to work much on Sunday, I did not get just a whole lot done. No matter though. New engine is not supposed to arrive till
1st of August. Then the fab work, and who knows what all else.
In the meantime, I must find the parts if available, or build my own set of drag bars. I was unsure of what the Roughhouse handlebar was going to look like under all that plastic. I was hoping it was a 2 piece unit, where I could just simply swap out the 7/8" bars for the drag bars for a Honda Rebel. NOPE! The bar and it's mount are all welded together in a 1 pc.
" Y " of sorts. That simply will not do. So an hour and umpteen blasted screws and wires later, I got the whole front cowling, dash and front fender off.
I went ahead and removed the seat, all the plastic body bits, tail light / signals and fuel tank. Unplugged all connections. only 2 bolts left to remove and the whole engine & trans is out. I have to keep it to where I can roll it around for the most part, so I left the engine in for now.
While waiting for the GY6 150cc to arrive, I am going to put the original parts back in including the 49cc piston & jug and al OEM transmission parts. I plan on reselling the PGO engine on e-bay, along with anything else I do not pan to reuse.

Here is pics from today:
Nothing exciting, just a documented tear down.
