Cafe Racer Mini Bike Build! | Part 2 Tillotson 212 Build and Paint
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 มิ.ย. 2020
- We found a vintage Thunderbird minibike and are using it as a base for a café racer-style minibike build. We love the slant-engine style of the frame and think this thing is going to look awesome and retain a lot of the vintage flair. In this video we are really bringing it all together with custom paint and a fully built engine! Thanks to Gopowersports for all the parts we used on this build, links are in the description below!
Thank y’all for watching and be sure to stay tuned for the next step of the build!

The engine cover is there for cooling. Maybe some thin clear acrylic could be formed to retain the intended feature.
I’d hate to see this thing seize.
Lexan would probably be better, less likely to shatter, but either will end up scratching up pretty quickly.
.
Still, if you're THAT worried about showing off the flywheel, you'd make up bucks to form the Lexan, and then just bend up some new ones as the ones on the bike get too scratched.
If that hair gets any longer you’re gonna have to start build break and repeating surf boards🤘🏼
Didn't you just completely destroy the cooling ability of your flywheel with that cage?
Yeah,
Those are fine to use with methanol. Just got to keep moving to keep the airflow over the engine.
Sweet little café Racer
Amazing job guys! This thing is so beautiful! It looks just like a mini cafe racer 👌
Great job guys ! Just came across your channel and wanted to say its always awesome to see young dudes gettin down and building rides ! Beyond that its even cooler to see ya'll customizing them ! Ive been in the build/custom game for decades and have never looked back or gotten tired of creating. Im 47 now and have built everything from high end rc projects to a full size monster truck and everything in between . You guys are the future and from what Ive seen your on point ! TJ ~TMF~
Turned out absolutely beautiful!
Man great work guys this mini is so amazing I’m so jealous of this build quality guys very nice attention to detail
that brake is a very bad idea. centrifugal clutches get hot! hot breaks equal no brakes. trying to stop that thing once the clutch drum heats up will be nearly impossible.
Not to mention what happens if the chain slips off....
That happened to me with my go kart, and it is reliable most of the time, but it will not stop if you have done heavy braking. Worst comes to worst, just nail the brakes as hard as you can, and it will eventually stop.
3:43 Nice seat! I really like the color contrast.
That is so Sweet ! Well done guys.(I've been wondering about sanding my fins,and that looks Sic! Thnx for the demo.)
I love that cafe racer look, Ducati scrambler & Triumph Thruxton are some of my faves. 😁
That looks absolutely amazing!
Looks great, guys... MUCH BETTER with the handlebar risers!
The old pull cover was there to direct air from the flywheel over the cooling fins on the engine,by getting rid of the original cover you are getting rid of the engines ability to cool itself.
Beautiful bro
That thing looks dope af👍🏽👍🏽
I love your intro, it the best of all you go power sport guys
Nice job guys....
That engine is going to blow up because the old pull start cage was there to guide the air form the fly wheels to air to cool the engine. with out that it's not going to cool the engine
When ridding the engine will have plenty of air flow.. they shouldn’t stand still and rev it nor idle too long..
@@leslm3624 "ridding" seriously?
I blew a engine on my drift trike by not putting back a cover onthe side of the jug. I only ran that engine for 3 hours and had a meltdown
@@drewanderson8279 damm that sucks
Romo lucky it was a predator 212 with just a big cam .some head work. So I was able to just swap it out with the warentee lol. I put it back to stock and said I dont know what happened!
The metalfabcreations cage completes the build. He makes some great stuff. Great build here too!
Metalfab made a thing to take away the motors airflow across the head.Good way to kill a motor and become liable for destroying engines
Awesome looking build guy👍
i look forward to your videos!!
What a nice color palette...Careful riding that thing on the trails n' dirt; I hate to see that flywheel get all banged and scratched up from any dirt kickin'.
The cover was to direct air from the flywheel over the engine to cool it. But on a bike. Shouldn't be much of an issue if you're moving most the time.
Finally a new video ! I was waiting:P
A good one, too !
Nice man
Looks epic
Thanks for the video
Nice video
Those Wheels tho look crazy. Like you got them off of a Amish wagon
Hey that fan shroud was a fan shroud LOL
Its going to run hot.
the pull start shroud acts as a guide to direct air over the cylinder and head for cooling. Without it you fun the change of overheating.
I watched the final vid in this series first and couldn't identify the brakes. So I had to watch the build to see how the brakes worked. Ive never seen brakes like that before. Is that a common setup on minibikes? Great job on the build btw. Looks pretty sweet.
You should put nos on it there’s lots on eBay!! Love the vids!!
Me checking every single day to see if they uploaded pt3
You need to move the foot pegs back for full cafe racer effect.
flip the front fender too? would look better shorter above the wheel. great build guys.
awesome build as always!!!!
whats the intro song called?
i feel like if you could find a set of mini clip on clubman bars they would really complete the look have them be right under the upper tripple tree or a little extension right through the tops of the forks love the look haha dont ever see stuff like this just little choppers and bobbers
i see it gitting hot and bercking the fins
FYI, most exhaust wraps are designed to go on wet, so they shrink tight as they dry.
Not surprised these kids didn't know that, they seem pretty much clueless about everything.
Some aren't the wrap I used on my turbo dump didn't have to be wet to put it on not all exhaust wrap is the same
we’ll look into it. Thanks!
@@jacoblotz1309 - correct, not all HAVE to be. But even the ones that don't often go on easier, and stay tight longer, if you soak them before using them.
The sheet metal around the flywheel is to duct air over the head to cool it. The cage that you have doesn't do that and is probably meant for running these engines on methanol.
So about the flywheel cover. How will that effect the fan cooling down the head? It seams it wont have the proper air circulation?
Besides what Richard Owen said debris may get into fins of flywheel and throw it.Clean pavement recommended.
Does the headlight on the bike actually work or is it just for looks?
Nice video! What's the name of the intro song?
How much does the tank hold?
Anyone know the exact brand of the paint? That colour combo is mint! Literally!
Sorry I'm just now seeing this it's krylon pale sage
put a tube from the rocker cover to the carburtor
You need 2 cylinder for true dule exhaust
Rattle can 101- closer and lighter coats
At 10:00 did anyone else notice the "first try!" saying from Braille Skate.
Am I the only one wondering if the slanted motor will make things wonky? Is the carb level? How about the oiling? The slant does look sweet, but not 100% sure about that other stuff.
hi you need to put that cooling couling on the motor wont cool properley use a better brake system i found that way the band around the clutch it got to hot
It's been a while
yeah thanks for sticking with us. We’re trying to get back to our weekly schedule.
The paint on the tank isn't going to hold up to gas. You need a 2K clear like SprayMax.
Who’s Moto Guzzi is that?
I explained to my son that a true dual exhaust must have a 2 cylinder engine , one exhaust pipe for each of the two cylinders ...............
You got any cushion in that seat ?? Lol looks flat
FURST TRUIY
When’s the new video coming out ?
Esa pieza se ve una come deos...🤔
Hydraulic brakes is the only way to go
You know you'll lose your brakes if the chain slips off, right? Not trying to be a naysayer, but that's a serious safety concern.
The problem with the cool starter standoff is that you just eliminated you're cooking air flow over the cylender and head not too bright dummy
Engine enamel is not sufficient for exhaust.
That band on your clutch will eat ur clutch away I'd find something better
gambler 500? lol
Why you got your sisters pants on
nooooooo. the brake on the clutch drum does not work. it is a terrible idea. heat kills clutches and it will only stop your bowl not your wheels.
The wag be spray paints made me sick to my stomach try to add a little technique
I hate to tell you but you cannot have a true dual exhaust on a single cylinder engine LOL 😆😅😂🤣
I got a joe Biden add on this video and he he was talking all slow and keeps pausing. Not to mention the fact that six different clips to make it work. Kek
Great video as always looking forward to the rotary bike getting chrome.
Way to string out the videos. Come on throttle and cable install?
I heard build break repeat dont reply to their comments
nope
Well that proves it
Of course they don't, a clear sign they don't give a damn. Just a bunch of entitled spoiled kids playing around in daddy's garage.
....:to their comments.(now they can just build,and break...)LoL
Cut the hair
please do not grind like that. waiting for accidents to happen like that. (the way you hold it, and the cable there)
Dude. Wear a respirator or mask while spray painting. That stuff damages your lungs very badly.
Geez where do I start, painting with no primer, painting with clear coat to get gloss using matt clear coat, painting engine before doing the build. These kids need some serious adult direction as it so clear they have no idea of what they are doing.
You seem really insecure.
Why the fuck it matter? Its their build.
What a loser
