- Help a Bro out and subscribe. Bone stock Venom Ghost top speed run / short ride. This bike isn't going 90mph that's for sure.
Riding the Venom Ghost 250cc. Also known as Dongfang DF250RTR. It has the same engine as the RPS Hawk 250, X22R, SSR Buccaneer, SG250 , RTD Retro , RTR Retro, Venom Sportster Chopper, Venom KPX 250cc, Magician 250cc, X-Pro Titan and numerous others. The engine in reality is a 229cc labeled as a 250cc.
Thanks a bunch for the video straight to the point TY. I have a kmp 200 has 6 gears . 1st is pointless unless on a pretty big hill and 6th gear gets you to about 65-68 . Feels like wind resistance plays a big roll with these bikes 😅
YW. That's good to know. I was so close to buying a KPR 200. Yeah, the wind definitely does. The day after I posted this, I had the bike at 72. I'm going to change my rear sprocket and hopefully get 75-80 out of this bike.
Thank you such simple videos so hard to find
You're welcome. Yeah, before I bought the bike it was hard finding videos on it. I don't remember finding a top speed video for it.
It sounds real busy, one more gear would have been nice but maybe front sprocket resize would help.
Yeah, one more gear would have been nice. I actually changed the rear sprocket and the top speed didn't change at all. It ran smoother with less vibration and longer gears but lost some top end.
I got mine to 80mph, but I wound out the 3rd and 4th gears on a straight and level run. Venom has been the best for these small Chinese bikes.
Yeah, I do like Venom. I recommend them. The fastest I got my bike was 72mph the day after I filmed this. 80mph is really good.
Nicely done I'll do I video soon on my bike and what i did to get it running and top speed and all that
Lookin forward to it. I been wondering how that bike has been comin along.
Do you have to be mechanically inclined and do your own work on this bike or will most motorcycle shops work on it for you? I had one dealer tell me they don't work on those Chinese bikes.
I would have to say yes. While you could take it to the shop, it's better to work on your own bike. Most of the time you need some basic mechanic tools. The Chinese bikes are ok if you take care of them. You really need to change the oil often in the first 1000 miles, make sure the valves and clutch cable are adjusted which isn't hard to do.
O.K. then. Thanks for the info.
@@KM-ee2fo No prob. If you don't work on bikes, it's easier just get something from a dealership. I'm looking at getting a new Ninja 400cc right now.
I have a lifan and all the work on it has been fairly basic. The most advanced thing was the valve adjustment, but honestly just getting the top cover off with little clearence is the biggest issue. I bought a ratching wrench that does odd angled and it sped my process up 100x.
But yeah, with pretty basic tools and usually no special tools, you can do all your own work on these bikes. There's always a TH-cam vid that'll show you how to do it.
@@domenik8339 The Ghost 250 has the same problem. There is no room around the valve cover. Basic tools and a feeler gauge get the job done. On a GY6 I can get the valves done in no time. Ghost 250 good luck. The flex head ratchet wrenches are boss.
Man thats dope its stock im assuming still? Ive been meaning to update u on my 90cc and what i did to get it running properly
Yeah, it's stock. I think it'll hit 75mph after the rear sprocket upgrade. No prob. I've been building a big bore adventure 50cc(83cc) I was tempted to throw a 150cc carb on. I ended up buying a complete 50cc carb/intake instead.
@@thelagmeister I have a 24mm carb for 150cc on my 90cc I figure u would have a bigger carb on Dat bike stock nice update brotha
Sweeeeeeeet dude seems to be running swell for you
It does run really nice. It's a blast. The clutch lever is kinda stiff though and I need to change the rear sprocket so I can go 75mph.

What is This noise. Like metal rattling
There's nothing rattling. The bike is solid. The only thing you can hear in this video is exhaust and wind noise.
How is the weight does it feel safe at 65
It's not bad. I think it weighs about 350 lbs. At 65 it feels safe. I just got the 36 tooth sprocket for the rear, so I should be able to get at least 75 out of it.
Question, How accurate are the speedometes ???
I used GPS and on this bike was off by 4-5 mph. I posted another video where I got this bike up to 72mph so it was more like 68-69mph.
How much do u weigh?
About 170lbs.
If you watch other youtubers test these machines. The speedometer is off by like 20mph.
When I used GPS this bike was only off by 4-5 mph.
You have !5 miles on it. Not even broken in.
In this video it says 142 miles. I ride/drive everything how I would normally even during the break in period. Never had a problem in the last 8 engines I rebuilt. I just do about 4 oil changes in the first 1,000 miles.
@@thelagmeister Sorry. That was a typo. I ment to say, 142 miles.
Brother. Your video came to me as "help a bro out.."
@@billfish9553 No prob. How fast does your bike go? It seems like the Ghost is a little slower than the X22r and Hawk.
@@billfish9553 Hahaha. You mean the video descriptions? It never occurred to me it would be read like that. Maybe I should change that. It was hard finding videos on the Ghost. I don't remember seeing a top speed video for it, so I made a couple. Jerryhawk250 has a lot of great videos if you're interested on the Chinese 250s. He helped me get the right sprocket for the Ghost when I changed it. You should check him out if you haven't already.
It seem like the shifting was to early
The bike stock is geared like a tractor. The gears are way too short. You can go through a 90 degree curve or a roundabout in 4th. 1st and 2nd are almost pointless. Even If I revved out 4th during this run the bike still wouldn't have gone any faster.
Thats not fast! Not even 70 klms an hour! Lol!
It's mph. More like 107 kph after upgrades It should go 120 kph+
