Default Hey guys and gals

I`m Sam from st. louis missouri. I just bought my first running bike last week, well used to run. I ran out of room with no brakes and down shifted too quick and hopped a timing chain tooth or 2. This is the first bike I ever rode in my life a few years ago and I bought it from my friend for 100 bux. I wanna turn it into a supercross/custom show bike that you can rip up in the dirt. It`s a 1974 honda XL70 with a 72cc engine 4 stroke. I work on cars for a living and I`m starting to get sick of 4 wheels, and I think 2 wheels is my new love. This is the first bike I ever ripped into also so I`m totally new to the mechanics of these beasts.

Thanks man. I`m ordering a 125cc Lifan engine this week and some resevoir shocks later on. I`m technically an automotive body man/ painter. I`m still learning mechanics.
