    I will say the 224 is significantly more powerful than a 212, it’s a nice surprise!
    I recently bought a brand new rb200 and thought about buying another 224 but my god it’s a pain in the butt clearancing the block for the connecting rod and all that.

      I thought the 224 build was more fun than the no brainer 196 builds I've done. But if I could do it all over again i wouldn't have built it. I would do "stage 1" and max govern it to 5K RPM. I don't need the extra power I got from the fairly mild build. My 196's have enough power and are easier to ride than with the torquey 224.

      @@Deucealive75 I loved the power of the 224 and personally I feel there can never be too much.
      I’m probably going build another for my b200r, it’s worth the extra work that’s for sure! I did 0-60 in about 7.5 seconds on a mild build and I’m 200lbs

    "Real Trail Bike" is a bit of a stretch. Sure, it will get you around as long as the trails are not too difficult, steep or have a bunch of obstacles in them. Look, the kickstand bracket is only about 3 inches off the ground, so that kind of limits you to going over 2 inch logs in the trail, which is not a big log at all.
    Yeah I've got one. Use it as the farm "four wheeler" but around this farm we prefer two wheels. As long as you keep to the wide trails and tractor paths it does OK, and is a hoot to ride. Mostly use it to run down to the mailbox at the end of our 1/4 mile long driveway. It does a great job of sitting there idling happily while I get the mail out of the box and dump it into the milk crate I have zip tied to the rear rack. And that side stand is pretty sweet too, so cutting it off would be a big mistake.
    Really can't beat it for the bucks. Can't remember how much I spent on my first mini bike back in the mid 1960's, but this one is so much better put together. 420 chain with a jack shaft instead of the old single run 35 chain that used to derail all the time. Don't tell me, let me guess: It's made in China, right? (Yeah those suckers are going to OWN us one day.) Enjoy your consumerism while you can.

      @@andrewhanson5942 Gotta say the real advantage when you off-road these things is the small stature, light enough to just pick them up easily when the fall over, small enough to squeeze through narrow gaps.
      Your very right when you say the limit is the ground clearance and I will attest to that, some choose to lift these bikes with taller forks and rear shocks, gives a much higher ground clearance.

      Trailmaster is a great bike for comfort and a good ride from what I have heard. Don’t go for a CT200U for trails. Not an ideal frame for bumps and such due to no suspension whatsoever and thin tubing. I would say the best options for off-road are the Trail master mb200, Megamoto 212/Coleman B200, and the BT200X.

    • @Deucealive75
      @Deucealive75 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I would recommend the Ducar 224 from DynoCams. If you want a hemi head get the Wildcat 223 from EC carbs. Predator 212... No.

    Nice mini bike. Im going to making a all custom mini bike with a predator 430cc. Are they hollow frame or solid steel?

    • @pfmachines
      @pfmachines  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Steel tube frame. Never had a problem with the the frame being too weak for me. But I will say it won’t take much to re enforce the frames with more steel bracing.

      Gopowersports.com has some good ones for the b200/mm212 frames. eBay and Amazon have kits too but not sure about the build quality.

      @Deucealive75 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If he wanted to he could. All the parts needed from the 196 will fit the 224. This is another good reason to get a 224 over the two Predator 212's. The 196 flywheel is not a correct fit on both Predator 212's.

  • @16driver16
    @16driver16 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The 212 and 224 are actually more powerful AND more reliable than the 196 the bike came with as the 196 has a smaller crankshaft
