LilTuffGirl Posted June 14, 2010 Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Figured I might as well post it here too...2009 Joyner Sand Viper 1100cc. It has an aftermarket air filter on it (stock one was crap) and ITP 589 tires on the rear and swamp lites on the front. It's a BEAST! Will go up to 75 mph (not so well on the pavement anymore with the big tires). It pretty much goes through anything or up anything. Runs great! MUCH more reliable than the VW rail buggies. 800 miles on it4 speed trannyRuns great! Never had any problems with the motor.$5,000 firmin Winfield, WVwe have a trailer if you need help gettin' it home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilTuffGirl Posted June 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 Very nice. Didn't you guys have it for sale before? GLWS Yea it's REALLY hard to let it go lol it's so damn fun! I wanted to keep it but we really don't have any time for it since we have the street bikes (I now have a new one) and the dirt bikes. It's taking up garage space and it will help us pay off my husband's dirt bike and get my car painted!! If... we can sell it. Not an easy thing to sell.But banks will give you a loan on it! We have a cert. of orgin or wtf ever it is. I'm pretty sure you can make these things street legal. Actually I heard it's much easier to do in OH than it is here in WV (I contacted WV state police trying to figure out what else it needed other than DOT tires but no one knew) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilTuffGirl Posted June 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2010 What's the motor out of? You guys build it yourself? It's built by Joyner USA. The engine is a chinese thing made by chery or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once assembled I've only had the same engine maintenence as my XX, tune up and oil changes.my neighbor has 3 ultralights that are VW powered, if he trusts them enough to fly with them, i trust them enough to drive me places.

magley64 Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 yeah they've all seen their fair share of "beating", the single ports seem to have the best response, even if they have slightly lower peak hp...with air cooled VW, the horsepower is the drawback, 1600's run between 50 and 60 hp in stock trim. I do plan on building a 2332 engine with a turbo, and find a totally beat old VW bug to put it in... sleeper city Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilTuffGirl Posted June 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Nice! I guess you need to come here and help these people out here!! Our old VW buggy would run all the time but man it needed overhauled! Just always leaked oil... Things would break here and there but never too bad.Now my brother in law has spent A LOT on his buggy! And it seems like he always has to do something to it before he can ride again. But then again he's an idiot. Loves to drink while riding.... now he's down because his buddy rear ended him hard enough to lock up the engine and screw the tranny My husband's cousin's buggy has major issues. It's a slug now.. Our Sand Viper hauls ASS compaired to everyone elses. And he's climbed every hill he can possibly find. Even ones I Say oh hell no and get out for lol. I don't want to get rid of it But I REALLY want a paint job for my car... Even though I don't know who to trust now that a shop just totaly FUCKED my plastic on my brand new bike (KTM doesn't clear coat all the pieces so I took the others pieces to a shop for clear coat... it's one HELL of a headache) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
