    Great fun machine! I've been wanting to experiment in making a "hill billet" flywheel for a 212. On some there is a rough cast step on the skirt of the stock flywheel that is machined and fitted with a ring gear on the electric start models. My idea is to take the flywheel and finish machine that step, then turn up a steel ring and shrink fit it on. I think this will work, because from what I have seen the electric start models don't have the inside out flywheel issue due to the ring gear holding everything together.
    Another thing I have seen with the stock flywheel is some of the "explosions" aren't due to the flywheel giving up. Instead, it's the flat head screw in the center of the impulse magnet that gives up and let's the magnet become one with the air cowl. I think doing the ring mod and replacing that screw with a flat head socket screw would be a cheap way to greatly improve the stock flywheel.

    I have a Coleman CT200U-EX, I bought a Tillotson 225cc Performance Engine from GoPowerSports, and I tell you what, it's a big difference between only going 19 mph to now going 59 mph. I could get it to go a little faster by changing the sprockets, which I haven't done yet, I've just left it like it is, because 59 mph is pretty good. I bought the engine last summer and it's a very reliable engine, plus it's beefed up to make the engine stronger. It puts out 18.626 hp, according to the dyno sheet they sent with the engine. You should get one of these engines, but they're not cheap!

    That’s remarkable on engines known to have Stone Age carburetors and no advance on the magneto ignition systems. These engines are generally designed to run at one specific RPM like on a generator or a lawnmower. I’ve never thought of them as something that has a wide power band

    Put 196cc heads and push rods on a 212 you won't regret it. I had my 212 cranking on stock internal parts. I even made an oil cooler for it. You can plumb propane into the intake of the carburetor, then when your riding wide open throttle you can crack the propane open and gain a few more mph. The propane works as extra fuel and at full throttle the engine will get the optimal air flow to burn the extra fuel. It's poor man's nos.

    Hey Mike, I have a build series on my channel with the Mega Moto 212 from Go Powersports running the Predator 224. I agree completely that the 224 has great torque. I'm hoping to install some minor hop-ups on an upcoming video too. Bone stock, I am getting 39 mph. I don't expect much more speed till I get rid of the governor but it will be interesting to see what improvements I can make in torque with a few inexpensive parts.

  • @TheGraytOutdoors

    I recently (yesterday) took the stock 196cc off my CT200U and putting on a standard Predator 212. It’s amazing how much alike the two are visually (aside from the side case bolt sizes) but they definitely aren’t similar in performance in my opinion. Even though we joke about Harbor Freight and their products, the Predator engines always seem to be dependable, smoother, and definitely better built then what Coleman is using..
    I’m building my CT200U as an actual piece of usable equipment for my fishing channel so there won’t be a lot of performance mods, more more necessity than fun I guess you’d say… next I need a suspension for the front!!😳 and maybe a Springer style seat.

      @@Schmmoo Actually, top speed is the same just because of the gearing. I didn’t change the gearing at all but I can say, the idle is definitely quieter and smoother. Accelerating is a lot less “jolty”. Definitely a smoother experience, so getting to that top speed is a lot nicer and quicker. I would say it’s 0 to 20mph time is better.

    Duuuuude! I think I’m local to you.. I just started researching mini bike stuff, I have a couple of small ones and a vintage with a 212 on it. Found you and your bros videos! I’m not gonna give away our location but that’s coastal!

    Nice build, love the seat. Where did you get the paint for the bike? What color ?

    Need to LS swap it :) Or at least add a turbo and nitrous, right?

    I really enjoy these mini bike videos. I'm glad you're having so much fun with them. But, as for me, I'll stick with the tw200. Still VERY cheap, and you can't put a price on reliability. Maybe you could do a comparison video? Cheers. See you out there.

    • @Mikefestiva

      Those TW200 are fun bikes, my brother and I have owned a few of them in the past.
      We have taken them on lots of long camping trips 👍

    Good video what's wrong with using motors like briggs and Stratton and Kohler?

      Cost. Available parts. Those engines are great.
      Love my Kohler's on my mowers.

    Hey Mike quick question, my bt200x rattles and shakes at high speed and my arms and body turn to jelly. Made sure bolts were tight but maybe the guy who put it together didn't align something? Do you know where I can find rubber bushings to help vibration for the motor plate? Idk

    Should have ordered a torque converter for it. Im waiting for the adapter to put mine on. They make a world of difference.

    • @Mikefestiva

      If you watched my previous videos you would know I already had one on the mini bike and why I feel it was a waste of money on this bike.

    • @danmckee2649
      @danmckee2649 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I just threw my clutch away it couldn't even get me up a hill and I'm only 150 pounds. I've had multiple with torque converters I wouldn't own one without it. Considering they're 60$ on Amazon right now I don't see it as a waste of money.

    is this a lot different than the b200 from tractor supply ?

    • @orionhuigen
      @orionhuigen หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Yes. Mostly, the b200 has a completely different frame and transmission and disc brakes
