I like the cdi setup. Have you ran the engine without the drive belt to see what rpm its running at full throttle? You can also mess with the torque converter for it to engage at different rpms. On a 30 series driver pulley, you need to drill holes in the weights to lighten them. This will make it engage at a higher rpm. Also you can tighten the spring in the driven pulley, sometimes you need to drill a small hole to set the spring in a different position. That will keep it from going into high gear as fast. For some applications they are fine as they are, but i usually end up adjusting mine to get them exactly how i want them. Looking forward to seeing how the clutch performs.
I cant get my TC to engage at lower rpms like I want it to. Tightening the chain helped a little. Ive got a good idle speed...Idk what I'm missing. Can anyone help? Coleman CT200U with Chikuni VM22 from Amazon
I don't see a link for the fly wheel and ignition system. I'm very interested in those items. P.s you should build another trike. That was my favorite build. Have a good one!
It will be available in the next couple of weeks. Im working a few details out before launching it. There will be a video posted when its available for purchase.
@@BigRig003 The transmission would cost more than the engine, you'd better off buying a dirtbike if you want whistles and gadgets. These are built to be dirt cheap, also you'd have to do fabrication to make it fit inside a minibike frame.
Red Beard put a hard (off road) or white spring in the driven pulley and a 9t gear that will allow your engine to rev higher before the cvt changes to high gear. I got that set up in my 3203 yerf dog and it does 45mph with 2 adults riding on it and also does great in the sand trails. But be careful that mini will be a wheelie machine!
@@RedBeardsGarage have you considered sprocket changes to improve top speed and upgrading to a 40 series and swap to a 420 non Hemi engine more horsepower from the start and set the engine the same way as your current engine a stock 212 makes about 8 horsepower but a 420 makes around 12 to 13 horsepower a 420 non hemi with the same setup as your current engine could put out around 15 to 16 horsepower and probably 22 to 25 foot pounds of torque and have a top speed of maybe 55 to 60 mph with a 13 tooth sprocket on the transmission side and a 47 tooth sprocket on the rear wheel side be a lot closer to a real motorcycle as far as gearing is concerned.
For those asking about that set up, this is what I did to get a steady 13.8 to 14 1/2-ish volts on an electric start Tillotson 212 with the factory flywheel: - Honda 31630-ZE2-861 Coil Charge (10A) - 1PZ FW1-R01 4-Pin 12V Full-wave Motorcycle Voltage Regulator Rectifier That coil is designed to put out something like 28 to 30V and 10A. it fits under the fly wheel. Snugly, but it does fit. The rectifier regulator is a full wave type, so it definitely doesn’t leave me undervoltage. I don’t know what it is rated for, amps-wise, but I guess I will see if it holds up. Hopefully whatever the amp output is is enough to charge a lithium battery and run some lights, and isn’t too much to burn out the rectifier regulator or battery.
So far, so good. I upgraded the headlight bulb to a 25w LED, the light’s on whenever I’m riding it, I use the electric start, and the battery’s stayed charged so far.
@@johnthomas9854 did you ever actually meter the output? And you're using stock 212ee tillotston flywheel? Just curious cause I'm def looking to do a more legit light and brake light + e start combo and don't wanna have to bench charge the battery
So crazy!!! I won't use road names as to not disclose your location but when you had turned on the backroad to latch your helmet you said, if you would have kept on going thru the first intersection you could been by my house!! Love the build, and all the others of course.
3 years down the road, is this an available product yet? This is exactly what I need for my adventure-style Hurricane. Electric start, full lights, the works. The stock charging system keeps up(ish) on long rides but I still find myself using the pullstart more than I like to.

exactly what i did to my 3203 yerf dog. it will pull the front wheels off the ground with a stock 212cc if you time the gas right lol. is also way too fast for the stock drum brake haha.

Why not up the rear sprocket a couple teeth to lower the gear ratio a bit? Just curious... great video funny as always! Love your Content Sir!! Keep em comin!
Your the reason im getting into mini bikes. But being new to small engines and this genre, i have no idea where im going or doing. Love the videos and still waiting on the next one
Hey @Red Beard's Garage I am doing a mb200 Tilly e start build like this and would really be interested in the flywheel and coil part names or numbers as I want to run head/tail and then signals aswell as e start and don't want the charging system to be able to keep up. Please hook us up brother.
Thanks for bringing back one of my favs....I bought a mini bike to work on after finding you and then others recently on youtube, and I thought I understood the clutch v torque converter, but now I'm not so sure. Video idea- can you brake down the considerations when deciding on clutch, racing clutch, versus converter and in the same conversation engine selection? For example, the decision tree someone would go through when they have a stated goal. If I want this mini bike to do at least XX mph, or have XX torque to climb hills, what are my options and then factor in price of those options. Doing a stage 3 build on a 212 does not seem nearly as economical as just buying a 301 off the bat, but with all the options out there its hard to decide what combo to go for. Thank for all you do!
Man I think it's gonna be a real booty spanker when the clutch goes in but I am still rooting to see a V-twin bike build maybe water cooled with a 2 or 3 speed trans.... would be saaaaweeeetttt!!! A talented fabricator and builder like you could definitely pull that off Greg! RGB rocks!
If you put a Max Torque clutch on get the 16T as far as I know it only comes with a 1” shaft hole so if your crankshaft is 3/4” you’ll need a sleeve and throw around a 50T rear sprocket then you will be able to run at around 60 mph.
Get a noram 1600 clutch or a noram enforcer. I have a 1600 with plain springs so engage at 2400rpm on my vertical shaft motorcycle. But ima prob change to an enforcer cause these vertical shaft engine have a load of torque.
I love my cvt. Prefer it over the Jack clutches. Jack's cost a lot more to replace when burn out over a belt on the cvt. Either way it's a mini bike. At some point one spends more money trying to get motorcycle power out of a Chinese lawnmower engine.
RBG love your videos. Well thought out. I was wondering when is that charging system is going to be available? I'm going to modify a billet flywheel for a predator 212 in order to run it.
I'm lovin it bro and can't wait to see the awesome RGB bike getting with it with the new Max Torque clutch set up also catching the install video! As always another great install video keep em coming and God bless
You need a manual trans engine on that sucker like a 150 dirt bike motor or something. Maybe a ttr230 motor would be sick and youd absolutely fly on that thing if you wanted to but the manual transmission would allow you to stay at whatever speed you wanted and not worry.
I have a question that may sound stupid, but here goes. I have an older MB200 with the centrifugal clutch. When the rear squats on a bump or going around corners, the chain gets loose and comes off. I talked to the owner of the local go kart shop, and he said they quit selling them years ago because of that problem. I wondering if anybody knows a fix? I'm thinking of trying a spring loaded chain tentioner, or if all else fails, turning it into a hard tail. Any suggestions?
Have you tried different springs on the CVT? I changed mine around on our 71 SUZUKI RV90 swap to get it right. I have a firm spring and a medium that allow it to spool up into the powerband and maintain top speed on hills.
Have you seen the juggernaut torque converter? I hear good things about that one at high rpms. I have a similar one to the one you have and I feel it top out at 5000 rpm.
? Since your using a torque converter instead of using a different clutch couldn’t you just change the rear sprocket ⚙️ to smaller and increase the tooth jackshaft sprocket so your not losing your torque and still achieve higher speeds just curious
I wanted something like this to come out for ever. Will probably buy more than 1. Would be great if they releases a programmable ignition for it with adjustable rev limiter too. I have a 224cc stroker motor I wanted a charging system on that I am un able to run a governor on cuz it will be revving to 7k. This system would be great with the gy6 fuel injection swap too.
that bike would be awesome with some sort of transmission on it maybe a old harley 4 spd ?🤔🤔🤔🤔 keep up the good work guys love the videos and a big insperation
Would love the to know the details of this charging system and flywheel. I think he forgot about this project from the comments as its been over a year.

Just curious if the rectifier prevents over charge of the battery, or is that even necessary ?
Would my torque converter blow up at 10,000 rpm in the 1/8th mile or should I just get a racing clutch?
A torque converter would never get to 10k. It would hold at around 5k

Put lighter weights in the drive pulley of the CVT. It will get the revs up and make more hp before it gears up.
