- Mini bike drag racing is going to a whole new level as we take you to the All Harley World Shootout at Farmington Dragway to watch a methanol mini bike race a full-sized Harley Davidson Road Glide. We also see a mini bike crash and a mini bike wheelie fail and take you inside the pits to get a close look at all the mini bike builds, mini bike mods and we will explore why mini bike racing is growing so quickly, especially at the bigger motorcycle drag races.

I am 100% for it. Anything to get kids and young adults out racing works for me and I'm 74 years old. Been racing since I was 18.
I like the minis. It is a wide open category of drag racing with an ultra low buy-in that anyone can learn and take to as high a level as they desire.
“I am a boy !”🫵🏼 Little man told you. 😂
That was funny had to replay a few times!
Dumb parents
Got him with that finger pointing too lol
Yeah I came to comment to he should of said my bad at least hahaha
😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
This video made me go brush my teeth!
LOL I don't know about you but I was hearing dueling banjos in the background this whole video.
It's crazy really. I was huge into mini bikes back in the early 2000's with Yahoo! Groups and BBS. Mini bike people were laughed at back then. My first "race/toy vehicle" was a Tote Goat back then.
I've gotten back into them the last couple years, and I'm glad they are getting more and more main stream recognition and respect the past couple years.
That’s impressive! My FTRs fastest pass in the 1/8th is 7.0 and 10.98 in the 1/4! Gotta start building a mini bike now!!
10.98? Really? 1320 feet? My 71 Norton 750 Commando E.T.was identical. Pee wee Gleason
Jack, I'm just absolutely loving this video..... and what a super nostalgic trend we're seeing her! - Hey, how about that guy on Sporty loosing his horsy!?😂😂😂
91 mph on a mini bike wow that’s fast👍
I am all for it. Inexpensive way to have fun, compete, and to use fabrication skills.
I see a lot of slow bikes there. Although I must say the minibike at the end of the video doing a 6.79 is quite impressive.
I love all entry level motorcycle drag racing! That’s why I love the dirt drags! At the dirt drags you have every level of the spectrum of drag racers! All the way through and up to Top Fuel!
I like dirt drags also! The way they kick up a huge rooster tail is more exciting than asphalt drag racing.
Why a mini bike? Why not?
Sooo glad these are becoming popular again!!! I have many built mini bikes even a drag in the 70’s!
Always loved them!!!
stop lying
They never lost popularity and they have all he's been in style and I always been around they never went away or anything maybe in your area but they've always been in popular
@@thebear6529 LOL right
I am 52 and have 2 mini bikes, 1 has a stage 2 performance kit in it,my other 1 is still being built. The frame was a baja warrior that was crashed and the guy who crashed sold the motor and gave me the frame and i cut it apart and rebuilt it . Will be posting pics and vids of the whole process on TH-cam
With mini bikes....you can live forever!
Big upgrades from the ole Rups. :) Great to see all the fabrication- I look forward to more!
I love that this is getting pretty popular,like they say it's cheap to get 3 times the power,also a great way to teach a son of nephew the basic on combustible engines how they work which will help them later on in life ,cars - trucks ,Lawn n garden when they get there first home,IAM 58 and just built a motor for a mini bike just to have fun with older son n my grand children n it gets them outside instead of being inside on a game or phone
Tim looked so stoned. Of course he’s on a mini bike.
MY 80" Harley Shovel Head did the 1/8 mile at 5.9 and 83 mph and it was stock with solid ifters
Yesss! 😄👏 cheap, easy, and small footprint! Jr. Drag engines on the little bikes are pretty sweet!
Mini bikes are badass
My first mini bike was a little Indian 3 hp, put many of hour’s on that bike and loved it and now I’m 68 years old now and its darn cool to see these guys having fun again 🇺🇸👍👍👍👍
I loved mini bike racing.
The Hally Davison overlooked the mini bike and he got his disgrace. I love that. Never overlook your your engagement.
Mini vs bagger was cool man, but you nailed it, I don't believe they'll (mini bikes)be a money maker for the tracks, they'll need their own track or own time at the track, and have their fans come out to watch and help the sport grow
Because It's fun man! I'm 60yrs down the road and I love mini bikes! Thanks for sharing. I'm going take mine to the digs this year... J.
I’m from the island of Maui. Being an island 2000 miles out in the pacific to get anything here cost big bucks. We have a drag strip and a community of serious drag racers with some fast cars. They’re super loud and spectators can sit at the start line about 50 get away, it smells and sounds like serious power. Only thing is there’s only about 20 fast cars. Then there’s the other 200 racers that show up in their daily drivers. As a spectator, it’s absolutely necassary to bring a bunch of beer or something to make it fun. For the racers it’s a blast, I’ve been in the pits . My brother races an old pimped out VW bug. Its a lot of work and slot of fun at the end of the day, but if your not pulling at least a 9 second quarter mile, nobody is gonna get pumped up to watch. It’s just the facts of life. That doesn’t mean the slower cars shouldn’t bevsblr to run it just means as a promoter , someone interested in getting g ppl in the gates, it’s something g that needs to be addressed. I have no solutions , I just know it’s like watching paint dry after about two drags. I was thinking of making a mini bike to drag matter fact. Something that nobody said, there’s a lot of. Reactivity involved in making the motor from your lawn mower pull 200 lbs down a drag strip in 8 seconds. Look at the crazy things people are coming up with. That’s the appeal. But you’re right there’s gonna be 600 mini bikes show up in a couple years as the trend catches more attention, like maui drags you’ll have a few fast pumped out minis run tgenn300 stock mini bikes straight off thr show room floor of the tractor supply store. It’s great for family friendly fun camping g out party timed but there’s nobody in the right mind gonna pay $20 bucks to sit and watch that. You can’t even pay someone to sit through a day of that. Anyways
People better wake up minibike life ain’t no joke we live this love the video 🤟🏾
Excellent video! Love all the home built Mini bike chassis. You kinda sparked an interest here. I do have an old mini bike in the shop corner., bunch of spare C'moly tube.
man this was a good video. well put together bud. first time ever seeing the mini bike drag scene. and you make a great point, its going to impact spectators. it can get redundant. CycleDrag, i always appreciate your content
Love how exhaust comes out of the intake and exhaust pipe. Overlap is fun
300ft in the parking lot. Any chance 50cc scooter racing? K4class?
I remember rolling around my uncle's shop back in 70's on one of those mini bikes. Cool to see!
Nothing but ear to ear grins from me. I can admit a big part of my childhood was on a mini. Yep after a short period of ownership the carb, intake and exhaust saw tweaking.
92 mph in a 1/8th is stunning. I was not putting any faith in the Harley to win. Now I’m wondering if my ZX6R would do any better.
That was crazy! Not even close! It's the size of the fight in the dog!
A 6 Second Minibike In The 1/8 Is Much Funner To Watch Than A Top Fuel Drag Bike Any Day Wow Go Minibike You Are Definitely A Motorcycle 💪✌️
I think an industrial engine based class would be awesome, I'd build one.
Can’t wait to hear about a race like this I can get to. Lotta cool folks having fun
Love to see this!
All I wanted to do was let some buddies run exhibition passes at Darlington a couple years ago and then Paul wanted more. Minibikes from racing to restored to custom shows are a national thing. You can build and store them in an apartment. Race in the alley. I agree that too many of them could be an issue. They are part of an overall show of many classes. So for an AHWS race, eight in three classes is enough to put on a show. But Farmington would be a great place for a big minibike drag race. Who thinks a Minibike Weekend at The Farm is a good idea???
I got my grandaughter a little 110cc knock off 4wheeler for christmas. She wanted someone to "race" with. I scrambled and patched up a janky go kart we had laying around. But it was to small for me(47yrs old).
Found a running monster moto 80cc mini bike on marketplace for 125.
Got it home, threw a 127cc engine in it. It was decent. The next payday, i got a 224 predator for it. It rips now.
I see the appeal. Cheap fun
I'm a mini bike engine builder in my main reason for getting into this hobby is the affordability and there an all-around blast to ride on even off a racetrack you don't need a trailer to haul them mine fits in the back of my minivan
Minibike life ain’t easy we out here smoking bigger bikes 🤘🏾
We race minibikes on dirt in Texas. NTX Minibikes.
I Love these little Badass Mini Bikes !! Promoters could put the faster mini's between the big bike drags. Captive Audiences??
Great awesome coverage!
Badass, thanks for sharing
That's the most missing teeth I've seen in 18 minutes in my life! 6.79? I'm impressed. Best I ever did with my Honda CBR 600 was 7.85.
Big weight differential!
Few questions about the really fast bike at the end of the video where do I find a torque converter drive pulley that will reach those high RPMs with a 1 inch shaft or did you guys turn your shaft down to 3/4
Hey Jack,
You are the closest to drag racing than many. In your opinion, will mini bikes find a permanent place in drag racing in the foreseeable future? Just curious.
Keep the great content comin. You’re doing a great job!
Modesto, Commiefornia
Mini bikes are the future 💯💯🇺🇲
Great video! Bringing drag racing back to regular people. Just like it started years ago. But your point about interest is valid. I don't have the answer.
I want the mini bike with the Jr Dragster motor lol. Dude you do some amazing work.
I love it teach you about a magazine good video thanks for sharing drag on
"caught too much traction i DO believe" 😂😂
Good commentator/host been, riding 50+ yrs worst take out I ever got was on a mini bike back in the 60's !
91 mph and the torque is insane. I cant believe that thing remains stable. Wow.
Go to Gulf Port Dragway this month on the 28th
Mini bike racing to the 330 foot small and big block classes and I’ll be there with the only electric race bike there. It’s definitely somthing to see in person . Hope to see you there 🤙💪
I like them minis, Very cool
Awesome episode!
I'm 58 now. Wish I had this 45 years ago. Your 2 track plan sounds good.
I went to a AHDRA event in Colorado WAY back in 2001. They had a Junior Dragbike class with many entries!
That’s awesome. That young man just said he did 9.6 that’s nothing to bat a eye at .
Guess he hasn't herd about the 2stroke Motorized Bicycles, The old is new and will always be Fast👾👽👍 We like Mini bikes too,Buddy save a Doodle Bug, --
He couldn't wait to call out Scarface 🤦🏾♂️🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That was a badass minibike😮
Mini bikes is here to stay ride and stay safe
Great video!
I built my first bike maybe a year ago. I’ve fell in love with the Motovox MBX10 frame and I have about 5 of them lol. Can’t wait to finish my wife’s
100% cool stuff!
I seen that shady side clip 🤟🤟🤟
Skip to 15:11 to see the actual race
Contemplating a mini funny drag bike. Ideally it would be a well built Duramax 440 stage 3 sitting behind the rear wheel, positioning the rider low and in front of the rear wheel.
Cars and Cameras holds the world record now
For drag racing it makes sense.. what's the biggest deal variable in the equation? Same as always the air resistance lower profile means more speed.. but off the track that thing would be a nightmare
Predator V - twin double engine always wanted to build one .
What frame is that? I want to use something like that for my build. Any recommendations?
lots of love
Way cool! My home track.
Who doesn't like mini bikes? Everyone riding one has a smile on their face. And it's fun to beat up on street harleys.....lol.
Wow a mini going 91 MPH in the 8th .
Building one !
i love to build these, so fun and you can easily make whole engine by yourself from scratch.... and run with superchargers and nitrometh!
Once I seen the wheelie bar I knew it was going to win
That kid knows his identity unlike others confused about their gender may God help this generation
Ya don't need big bucks to go bad-ass.
Research, design, build, compete & HAVE FUN!
The boys from Detroit Shure knows to build fast bikes!
Detroit hood TV?
Them guys on the west coast so far are the fastest hitting 100+ 1/4 Mile see it with my eyes.
I think it's awesome!
Doesn't matter what you ride just as long as you enjoy the ride
is it just me or is this video jammed packed with memes!!!!
I love these mini bikes. I wish Canada did this.
Jack, You gotta check out the Smoky Mountain Small Bore Rally. 4th annual Drag Racing.
I need to start taking mine to the strip
I want to know what the 60' was for that exotic mini. It left hard.
Mini bike scene is crazy in LA. It's a matter of time before it takes off all over the country.
You can go from budget all the way to running low 7s and 6s if you want. Something really cool about being able to take a platform and build it to an extreme level without having to sink tens of thousands of dollars in. Allows the creative of us to show our engine and chassis building skills without draining the bank.
I need a mini in my life!!!
Where did u get the frame from with the Jr dragster motor
He smoke that Street glide like a pack of KOOL
Not my personal way to roll in the quarter, but maximum props for the guy who chose this route and it’s working for him. All you need and nothing you don’t.
Modified many different ways. But he’s not saying what. Obscurity is the racer’s edge.
Making it go fast without spending a fortune. That’s what it’s all about for many of us.
I’m thinking a Triumph triple putting out 150hp or so and is street legal.
I think keeping the nose down will be the real problem for the hard chargers in the mini bike classes.
I’m already wondering if I want to try to build one. Maybe with a hot crate motor.
But I hate having to sort out all the classes and regs but don’t want to run open class. No blower, no nitro etc.
Are people running grudge drags on quads? Any trike classes?
And tell us when it’s an eighth. You can figure it out from time and trap speed but it’s a pain in the rear.

Hooning for life.
Much love and respect for your channel. Talking to riders, owners, mechanics etc. a nice extra.
Mini bikes and generator Stout engine modifications are what got me into motorcycles and two wheeled devices. I originally got into all this from drag racing mini bikes in the 8th mile. It's great to see how far things have come
Big bore snowmobile cvt. Stage 5 670 predator. Don’t know much with their fueling but that still has to be close to 5k to build
