I have the perfect name for the mini bike "About Time " about time yall build one from scratch and not something hacked together out of mini bikes that were mass produced
At the very end I had to laugh when Ike realized the other crank shaft could have fixed the last project. Lol I have many days like that as well don't feel bad, it'll be fine! Keep up the inspirational videos! I watch all the time and love it lol
71 c10 owner who hasn’t done jack shit with his truck in the past 8 years and I can’t imagine even doing half of what these two contribute to all of us.
I know it would be a nightmare for the guys but we need a build off. Ground up, have Charles and Taylor help. We judge on looks and they compete on the grand prix. Just a thought
I can tell already that this mini bike build is going to be one of my favorite series! Can't wait for part 2. Please, please put the snowmobile engine on it. I know you are not, but still looking forward to the snowmobile engine build, whatever that turns out to be.
Hi John & Issac! I’m in a trailer park in Florida, and you guys have inspired me to build a motorized 3 wheel bicycle , using a donated predator 212, and bike with a differential rear axle! I weld and fabricate now, and will send you some pics later !!! Nice “trash pic” on all those mini bikes Isaac! TTYL Jack - the “Frankentrike” builder
I’m currently working on my first project, I have a little scooterx baja 49cc, and I’ve bought a predator 212 6.5hp to put on it and Im in the middle of extending the frame and welding on a new engine mount. I’m super excited to work on it and I’ve gotten a new clutch off of go power sports, thank you for inspiring me to do something like this I would’ve never even thought about doing this without you guys
I suggest a small gusset for GREAT strength between the top rail & the rear down tube when you get the valve cover clearance figured out. Your mock up looks amazing ! Love the channel. God bless - Jeb from Texas
I have to be honest. I have never built or had much to do with small engine vehicles, but I do have an engineering mind and I love your content. I have been subscribed to this channel for a few months now and also Ike's channel. Y'all seem like really cool guys and have fun together. This channel is great for kids and very family friendly which I really appreciate given the kind of crap that is out there now. I can't wait to follow the progress of this build! Keep up the good work and keep having fun! Thank you!
I just started watching you guys, I started with the old videos and started to really like the mini bikes, want to build one myself and was waiting for this video to come
When y'all build your new shop you need to incorporate some sort of showroom or warehouse for all your projects. You've got so many mint bikes and karts that it'd be a shame to have to store them outside. Maybe create some space with ceiling high shelves that can showcase everything without letting anything be forgotten and fall into disrepair.
I have rubber-mounted a Predator 212 on restomod of a 1973 Honda Sl125. It makes a huge difference in engine noise. No problems with running a 30 series converter.
Starting on April Fool's Day? Nice. Have you guys considered moving Ike's lathe to this shop? It could really open some possibilities up for your builds.
That could be taken highly into consideration after the new shop is built as well. I like the idea, but the space is also something they don’t have a lot of in this lil shop
A wise ex military mechanic once told me to ALWAYS AND ONLY use the concrete floor if you are hammering something. Use a piece of wood if it’s necessary. That way there is no reverberation when trying to hammer someone into place. In the automotive shop I work in I’m always on the floor hammering stuff and people look at me like I’m a crazy person but it’s the best way to do it
I watched one of your first episodes the other day from 2015. Wow, you guys have come a long way!! Absolutely love your videos!! Thank you for the awesome content!!
I’m just finishing up a razor electric dirt bike that I’ve converted to gas with a predator 212. Lol it’s way to much motor for a small lil bike but that’s how I like it. Anyways you guys have motivated me to start building lil projects like this. Thanks guys your awesome
So proud of your guys congratulations on alk the successes you guys have done i love the videos so much love you guys be safe out there ike and john. Pray we are still watching you for a long time
3 ปีที่แล้ว
Somebody has probably already said this but the engine and valve cover should clear the frame when the rubber mountings are on, looks like it anyways ;) Awesome projekt btw! Really looking forward to the next part and the podcast!
Sweet build, as a welder/boilermaker I wish I had a plasma cutter,pipe bender and notcher at home it would make life easier but can’t really afford it. Would love to build a mini bike.
Heck yeah guys this thing will be sweet ! Should be a nice squishy ride 😅😅 I'm still waiting on parts to finish my first custom build 😒😒 .. I think next time I'll wait to get everything in one place before even starting the project
love this build now you are rolling you are fabricators you have been for a long while now give yourselves some credit take a pat on the back nice work guys like i said before you guys are a class act and by far one of the best 2 man teams i have ever seen keep up the great work just wish i could be right there doing it with you guys have a great day
Nice start guys. I might have to build me one soon. I just ordered my own Langmuir Crossfire pro. I have a pretty full machine shop again so I'm on it.
In stead of a single curved tube for the rear you should have two matching the bottom of the frame. Making a triangle with the ability to mount a shock in the opening. Would look even more sick than a single one in my head
Instead of drilling a hole and welding a rosette to quiet that nut, drill a hole and install a grease fitting, fill the tube full of grease for your bearings and silence the nut at the same time.
Just don't forget to take the inside seals off the bearings otherwise that grease will do absolutely nothing. Some mower blade spindles did exactly that - kept both seals, and regardless of maintenance those bearings went our fairly quickly since they were not getting the fresh grease.
John and Ike love your videos I would love to send you a drawing of a mini bike build that is cool and crazy which no one else has done yet I would do it my self but health problems prevent me from doing so so I live vicariously through your videos .
Another thing to consider is machine shops and fabricators may have piles of scrap bends and such you could talk to them and try to pick through the scrap and puzzle piece a bike together on the cheap.
I don't mind the non tapered bearings, Norton Commando uses sealed ball bearings for the head stock, however that headstock itself needs to be done right, this is a problem waiting to happen.
Anthony, a Norton commando is still better than this setup, because there is a thrust bushing. Even so, Commando’s are known for being high maintenance, especially concerning the front suspension, so....
I love ur chanal and i watch all of ur videos i would really like a part 2 and 3 if can. i love buying dirtbikes and fixing them up and i love what u are doing :)
Have you all ever thought about building a BMX Cub type mini bike? I would some dimensions of your build so that maybe I could build something similar. Great contents guys!
Dude I’m calling you out John when I get that done I got a full suspension bike come down to the Florida gambler 500 at spyder mx I bet I can beat you with one hand . Haha 😆 great work guys going to be so sweet
lookin good you'll get it ,after a while,good start,all I got to say is watch the sparks!keep that chemical extingwisher nearby,with just a 212 mounted,call it The Sportsman Mudchucker!
To mount the rear central shock u could use the technique that rather B welding is used to use. It's like 2 u-shaped pieces of metal for each end with a hole slightly offset from the center to bolt the shock. I think it'll work good!

Hey guys just here to say love the vids love you guys NO HOMO😄and what happened to the cati
Use one of your old bikes for head tube instead of jury rigging a new one?
I have the perfect name for the mini bike "About Time " about time yall build one from scratch and not something hacked together out of mini bikes that were mass produced
Bring back the disel go cart bring back the rail bring back all the old projects
At the very end I had to laugh when Ike realized the other crank shaft could have fixed the last project. Lol I have many days like that as well don't feel bad, it'll be fine!
Keep up the inspirational videos! I watch all the time and love it lol
John: start with a simple minibike as your first project
Also John: **fully restores a c10 over 9yrs as his first project**
🤣
Don’t be like John
What are some updates on the c10
He learned from experience.
71 c10 owner who hasn’t done jack shit with his truck in the past 8 years and I can’t imagine even doing half of what these two contribute to all of us.
"CC50" . I suggest the cantilevered shock design, will keep that back area very clean and aggressive looking.
I agree
Absolutely. Keep that backend open and free a fender is all you need.
I know it would be a nightmare for the guys but we need a build off. Ground up, have Charles and Taylor help. We judge on looks and they compete on the grand prix. Just a thought
a great thought tho, i would love to see that.
Ezechiel Roy they did it a long time ago with go carts
@@jenniferlee9392i know, it wasn't a full build tho.
yep , build off
Heck yeah . Some From scratch mini builds
From an old man who has spent a lifetime of fabrication (machinery and maybe a few stories) you guys always bring on a big smile 😁👍
Did anyone else notice Ike's welding jacket at 4:45? Very mature. I had to rewind because I was laughing and couldn't focus on what he was saying.
I had to go back to see for myself! Lol
*We need a tutorial on how to build a mini Panzer tank next.*
We need a tutorial on how to build the Gatorade gas tank 😂
@@trevorkreun2643 that's the real stuff
th-cam.com/video/6kdZmgZesso/w-d-xo.html
@@trevorkreun2643 we do
Tankco Engineering on youtube builds tanks and other crazy stuff. I went to College with Will. We need to bug him to get his channel off the ground.
Name it The Nightmare! Paint it red and black. Perfection! Love you guys! Rock on!
You should build some benches for the side of the workshop to save you working on the floor & it could be somewhere to mount your power tools
I think there waiting on the new shop to get organized..
I can tell already that this mini bike build is going to be one of my favorite series! Can't wait for part 2. Please, please put the snowmobile engine on it. I know you are not, but still looking forward to the snowmobile engine build, whatever that turns out to be.
Make the design on a pdf and sell that bad boy for $4.99!

Who gives a mini bike video a thumbs down , you must not have one 🤣🤣🤣 love you guys at CarsandCameras you guys are the best 🤙🏽

Man dang I give yall mad props you two make an excellent team
Refreshingly good. Lots of original November ideas.
I just started watching you guys, I started with the old videos and started to really like the mini bikes, want to build one myself and was waiting for this video to come
Get a Bridgeport too. You will never regret buying a lathe and a mill. Gives you the ability to make anything in this world.
Hyped for podcast, i just like to watch your videos. The longer your videos are the better. 😄
You should call it the mini monster
Keep up the good work guys

You've got so many mint bikes and karts that it'd be a shame to have to store them outside.

Custom brackets on both sides of the frame where it joins together would look cool. Maybe like a C&C logo or something

So close to 1 million! Been here throughout almost the whole journey 👍

The cantilever shock setup would be very cool,only see it on custom big bikes!! Coming together fast!!

A Harley soft tail set up would be awesomeness!!
I haven't watched in awhile. Feeling excited again. Summer is coming. Projects are calling.
love that one guys.
I love this custom build right on
Good job guys! I think a rear mono with double side bars for added rigidity. The nice thing about this setup, you can build this separately.
you guys need to bring out the SNOWMOQUAD
Isaac's beard should be able to build ghe minibike all by itself!
There is a minibike hiding in Issac's beard.
@@emjay1952 haha
I still think they should do an episode called "ikes and beards".
I love building stuff. Its relaxing and fun.
You guys rock! You guys should buy a WEN $90 portaband saw and build a mounting table. It makes cutting steel so much easier than using a cutoff wheel
Already looks great. Hopefully we'll see it going on the track soon.
I want to build myself a mini bike! Getting close to 1 million guys! 🤘
love the fact that you are doing something different and original great goobers gettteeeerrrr done boys .
I watched one of your first episodes the other day from 2015. Wow, you guys have come a long way!! Absolutely love your videos!! Thank you for the awesome content!!
Finally, an Ike sized mini bike! Can’t wait!
Had a Speedway Scorpion as a kid myself. FUN.
To everyone who see this your a amazing person n have a blessed day 🙏🏻😇
Drive safe

Awesome projekt btw! Really looking forward to the next part and the podcast!
V-twin mini bike would be super cool to see.
go high temp rubber mat for the full engine footprint.
you guys need McMaster Carr as a sponsor too! ✊
Sweet build, as a welder/boilermaker I wish I had a plasma cutter,pipe bender and notcher at home it would make life easier but can’t really afford it. Would love to build a mini bike.
This gonna be dopest series you guys have done in a long time
Almost to a million guys keep it going!!!!
Soo glad you guys took my idea. Its looking awesome. I for one would be interested in plans.
Heck yeah guys this thing will be sweet ! Should be a nice squishy ride 😅😅
I'm still waiting on parts to finish my first custom build 😒😒 .. I think next time I'll wait to get everything in one place before even starting the project
Good job guys. Gonna be cool. Love the tank
Call it the mini monster!!!
Looking good, looking forward to seeing this build come together.
Maybe y'all need to reach out to some more sponsors that makes mini bike motors.. because what y'all are doing is cool 😎💯
love this build now you are rolling you are fabricators you have been for a long while now give yourselves some credit take a pat on the back nice work guys like i said before you guys are a class act and by far one of the best 2 man teams i have ever seen keep up the great work just wish i could be right there doing it with you guys have a great day
Man, y’all really need to start building some choppers or bobbers!!!! Please!!!!! I’d love to see what y’all can really do!!!
Nice start guys. I might have to build me one soon. I just ordered my own Langmuir Crossfire pro. I have a pretty full machine shop again so I'm on it.
It's about damn time!! I've been waiting for you 2 to build 1 from scratch! Friggin awesome!! Love your videos. 😁
Finally. A real build video!!!!!@
Best video by far
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK
ahh, the open motor is keeping the welding spatter from igniting and exploding the can of acrylic enamel....brilliant! :)
I was literally thinking of rubber mounting my engine yesterday
In stead of a single curved tube for the rear you should have two matching the bottom of the frame. Making a triangle with the ability to mount a shock in the opening. Would look even more sick than a single one in my head
7:25 def an "it'll be fine" moment man! :)
This channel much better than orange county chopper TV series.
I made a vintage stiff chassis mini bike with a built Briggs as my first project. Man is that thing fast
I really enjoy the b role music in your videos. Kudos to whomever picks it.
Instead of drilling a hole and welding a rosette to quiet that nut, drill a hole and install a grease fitting, fill the tube full of grease for your bearings and silence the nut at the same time.
Just don't forget to take the inside seals off the bearings otherwise that grease will do absolutely nothing.

This channel is awesome, the only thing I don't like is that I don't feel there is enough footage of the finished projects.
Another thing to consider is machine shops and fabricators may have piles of scrap bends and such you could talk to them and try to pick through the scrap and puzzle piece a bike together on the cheap.
OCC / CAC Minimax.....amgitious build , lookin' good
RJ
My brother and I are building a project mini bike
We’ve been watching ya ever since the
Awesome build , can’t wait til it done . Ya might want to check what the seat height is gonna be before you get the frame welded any further
You guys are good!
That head tube really needs some tapered bearings.
I don't mind the non tapered bearings, Norton Commando uses sealed ball bearings for the head stock, however that headstock itself needs to be done right, this is a problem waiting to happen.

Tapered bearings are far stronger in this application.

mono shock w/extended swing arm.
pivot it all off the jack shaft 😁🤠
Awesome work fellas, as always.

That is looking pretty cool
I know it will be great so I already liked it! Love you guys
Nice build!
