Mini Bikes vs. the Rockies | TrailMaster MB200 x Hurricane x Full Suspension Mega Moto Shootout!

- We test three of the most popular mini bikes in the mountains! In this mini bike challenge, we test the Trailmaster MB200 vs. the Trailmaster Hurricane 200x vs. the Mega Moto with full suspension. The Trailmaster Hurricane is a new mini bike we haven't ridden before, and it is by far the nicest stock mini bike we've ever ridden. The Mega Moto was a prototype race mini bike, with 10" wheels, a built Tillotson 212, and a sweet swing arm kit. The TrailMaster MB200 was our tried and true option. It was equipped with a stage 1 performance kit, header, and 60T sprocket. The MB200 was surprisingly fast considering it was our "budget" mini bike!
Thanks for Watching!

Always fun to get out and ride! It's hard to believe how far mini bikes have come since the old rigid chassis designs!
where did you go. Id love to see you guys come down to sowthwest colorado in the san juan mountains
Where is this located?
The Mega Moto is a great bike just to small platform for my liking. I'm glad I bought my MB200 when I did. Prices have gone up a lot.
I'm coming to see you guys 1 day ill call first tho
Take the time to jet those bikes properly, makes all the difference in the world! Look into adjustable jets for the stock carbs. Cost a few bucks, but sure are nice for changing conditions. GPS should carry them if they don’t!
Absolutely love these kind of videos, getting out and playing with the toys you spend so much time working on. Absolutely fantastic, keep it up guys
Ike "It's a 4L60" ROFL
I think John said it best with "It's a good time to be into minibikes".
The Gas charged shocks must be a huge improvement over the standard coil-overs with little more than rubber to dampen the spring oscillation.
Looks like lots of fun!
good old 4lslippieE hahahaha
I once rode a GSX-R 1000 that had like two teeth off the front sprocket and plus four on the rear, that thing was vertical more often than a flagpole. It's amazing what gearing can do, I imagine Ike would have completely disappeared if he had the same sprocket. Cheers fellas.
Your 3 KX 80's would kick the crap out of all these mini bikes in every category. Suspension, gearing, power, handling, ergonomics, mileage, speed, safety, ground clearance, traction, brakes, reliability, looks, and overall enjoyment. Minibikes are great when you're new at off roading, or a little kid, but eventually, you grow out of them (well, most do).
@@TCGplayroom These guys like the lawn mower technology and kind of center the channel around that... I suggested many years back of doing an electric cart and they responded "Did that already" I guess in one of the first videos they used a car battery and an old car starter motor and decided it was just too weak ... i really meant something more along the lines of a Prius motor and some modern Li batteries
@@TCGplayroom Yup, I guess you gotta prove you're worth the sponsors money they put into you.
@@F5Tornado44 duh durrr a dirtbike would beat these bikes on every level, well no spit lol Also, where will you find a new dirt bike for the price of these new mini bikes? some people like to build their own and folks like you need to buy somethin already done because you lack the skills needed and obviously the brain power. did eric at dudz send you 3 trolls over? sales must be that bad for them lol
@@toyyoda3710 A long time ago, when these guys were first starting out, they were fumbling with many mistakes that were borderline dangerous for them. Being a welder/fabricator and retired pro ATV racer myself, I tried giving them several suggestions. You know what their response was? (Yeah, they used to respond to people) It was "It'll be fine". My last suggestion to these guys was "Stop wearing that visorless open face helmet. It doesn't protect your face and you look like goons with it." They went out and bought a full closed face helmet, then took the visor off. SMH...and that fishnet chest protector with built in armpads...OMG. Can you believe John actually tried that on, looked in the mirror and said "Oh yeah! I look sweet. We'll take this."
Salesman: "Will there be anything else? Boots, jersey, riding pants (leathers), goggles?"
John: "Nah, we got some really cool colored sunglasses from a Happy Meal. But I'll take a pair of those snow ski gloves and 1 of those "Oh-Shit Neck Protectors", if you throw in a pair of those big ass kneepads."
Cars and cameras gotta love it
Love the content, been watching since you guys were at johns parents house. Favorite series is still the “Murray lawnmower” I still remember to this day of Ike making the cool hand Luke reference, it’s burned into my memory, keep it up guys!
Some people just like to have fun, regardless of what their riding!!! Great video
I really like these episodes. I would love to do more travel in the USA and love your channel so this ticks all the boxes for me.
If a motor is breaking up at high rpm moving the needle won't do a thing, you need to change the main jet to lean the top end out
Correct.
John's a good salesman.
This makes me miss the road trips y’all did a couple of years ago….maybe you could a fall ride in the smokeys or something
Ya out here in the Rockies we run a different world. These trails are real. Push them to their limits. Good vid guys!
Looks like a blast! The view is 😍
An easier upgrade to the gearing is to replace the drive sprocket from 10 to 9 teeth! $12 and you can reuse the chain and you get very similar gear reduction! FYI, I’m at Zion canyon in Utah right now! Going to Bryce and Arches in the next couple days!
Looks like a fun trip Charles don't get hurt always a great show
I’d like to see how the bikes do in a up and down hill single track deep in the woods. The roads you are on are fine station wagons.
As a fellow North Carolinian, I salute you
I'm kinda diggin that red swing arm .
I've watched several of your vids today!!! now a new one!! how awesome!!
Jon always reminds me of Waldo off the little rascals. When he has his gear on! 😂
What great fun in beautiful scenery.
Absolutely more torque is better for keeping speed while climbing for sure
I just love this bike and extremely under estimated its capabilities and durability because its from China but this bike is faster and more powerful than it looks and even with a stage 1 mod you feel a big difference in torque and top end speed! I also removed my fenders and the makes it even faster because less drag! Enjoy you just got yourself a great reliable off road tested 👏🏽💪🏽🔥
Was watching another TH-cam channel got Your notification for this video and instantly switched to this video 🤘🤘
I super injoyed this video with the mini bikes . I'm sold
John you sounded a bit under the weather here, hope you are feeling better now!
A fun video. Thanks 👍👍
I like how the red MB200 kinda looks like a flat track bike with moon lander tires.
I just got a trailmaster mb200 from go power sports because of you guys. Down here at sea level I don't want to change anything about it.
I've dirt biked in VA, NC and TN. I've always wanted to go out west to the Rockies to ride. If it wasn't for the the fact that I hate days long road trips, I would go.
we have the same type of trails, maybe even a little gnarlier here in se ky but you don't lose the hp from the higher elevations.
Just have to adjust the carburator boy's and have fun mini biking up here in my home state of colorful Colorado ! ! !
I was at school when this dropped, I watched it in a lesson and now I’m suspended😢 worth it 💯%
i have a 1971 honda qa50 and couldnt imagine trying this but tires for my bike are unobtanium so i cant ride it anyway loved the video
With that size of engine they feel slow i know that the elevation was a huge deal, but i have ridden a Orion 200cc Fiddy for a few years and that bike seems to have so much more power then these bikes and you can buy it for 750-1000$ and with the extra cash you can upgrade all the small things that they have cheeaped out on and still its cheaper then these bikes, so what is it that makes these worth the money?
Would have likes to see that 2 stroke head up the hill. Does Go Power Sports have any plans to offer a bolt on gear box for mini bikes?
Hey guys keep up the good work Dragsters running really good for you keep doing what you're doing get that thing up in the sevens but always be careful
Cheers.
Looks like fun and I know this is a minibike channel, but for serious on/off road trail riding see if you can find a good used Honda XL-250R. I've had one for more than 30 years. Always reliable and a blast to ride.
I recently rebuilt one of those for my dad. They're a bit loose in the dirt/sand but it could be the tires or from me being very light haha. On road they're great though.
These are all sweet minis! LOL! Y'all need to turn that three-seater into a mountain climber. Great video guys!
One Day I dream of doin a trip like that..
Would really love to see a full episode on the Mega moto
Big sales pitch geeez
What a job... I need a job like this!😁
I like the frame on the high end bike but the mb 200 trailmaster i like it alot more because i know itll get the job done lol
Hi y’all from west Alabama love y’all
And Charles
Awesome video guys keep it up
This looks so much fun. The ammo can on the back of the mega moto was making me nervous. Maybe a plastic case withe some rounded edges would be safer. Great video.
I call those " Oh come on..." clips....hahaha...so nice in the moutains...
14:46 “it’s a 4L60” 😂
Where can I get that extended swingarm that is on the Mega Moto!?!?!?!
I see the link for the shocks but not the extender.
Good video.... Great scenery.... Nice rides.... I do prefer the build and test vids.... Hope you enjoyed the time on factory rides. Glad all are safe and looking forward to the next video.
Great content keep it up.
i'm feeling deja vu. it seems like i've seen this before.
If it takes all those mods just to beat a stock 200, I choose stock 200.
Want to see impressive numbers. Look up how much power a naturally aspirated engine looses from the start of the pikes peak hill climb, to the finish.
Did John finally hit puberty? 🤔 awesome review on the mini bikes.
You guys should get Lectron carburettors. Its like having fuel injection. They also self tune for elevation and hot and cold weather. You save crazy amounts on gas and you'll never foil a plug. I've been using the same plug for 2 years now and before i would foul plugs almost every ride
. Always had to hit powerband to keep plugs from fouling and now I can drive my 2 stroke ktm 200sx like a 4 cylinder without worrying on fouling a plug. One of the best investment on any carbureted machine
Do you have another way to communicate or this is a scam
your channel is awesome
It was awesome getting to meet you guys the other day! Hopefully ill meet yall again yall seemed busy so i didnt wanna bother yall lol
Them bikes look fun, I can't wait til tax season I'm gonna get one for sure and my boys can learn on em too.
@4:23 Ike, it's NOT less Oxygen at altitude, it's Less PRESSURE!
There is the same amount of available Oxygen at All altitudes, it doesn't matter if you're at Sea Level or the top of Mount Everest there is always 21% Oxygen in the Air! But what there is less of, is Barometric Pressure aka Air Pressure, which is what causes your body to process less Oxygen.
There is less oxygen, as there is less air. The air density is lower, which means less. Your lungs arent depending upon barometric pressure to do your work, just enough air to process.
As William said, the reason there is less air pressure is because there is literally less air above you pushing down on you, thus less oxygen. 21% of the air is oxygen as any altitude, but if there is say 25% less air at 8000 ft then there is also 25% less oxygen.
Ike, I love ya man, but I laughed so hard when the chain popped off the second bike. You were spot on though that the Hurricane had too short a gear for the hill climb. You guys need to put forced induction on one of these bikes to overcome the "altitude sickness" as Ike put it.
YES! Jesus clip!
What happened to your face John? Did you crash big time?
Those little bikes must suffer with a big boy like Ike on them You can hear his bike screaming "lord have mercy on me!" 😂😂
Awesome!
Sooooo anybody gonna mention towards the end of the video a piece of shrapnel flying across the shop and ya boi John dont skip a beat
Can you guys please see if you can come up with a simple two speed for a trail bike ? Thanks for all the videos that you do. It makes my day better.
After riding our CT200Us for a couple years (still love them!), I'm thinking suspension is the way to go!!!!
Yeah I have the btx or whatever hurts my back bad with the bumps
@@MitsuhashiTakashi taller tires with more sidewall is a good band aid for the rigid rear suspension.
Buscp beach 2022!!!
Hey first comment . That's never happened to me before , Not sure what to say but great video . Always nice to see you guys having fun . Can't wait to see that rail cart in action . Thanks guys !
Body armor on a mini bike that is hilarious
No it is smart
Modifications aside, the Hurricane and MB-200 are pretty much the same bike except for the front disc brakes that the Hurricane has.
Guys they make back up fuel cans the size of water bottles for emergencies. Might check them out.
When we go out west with sleds the biggest thing is to get you clutch set up right .you can't go to the mountains with a flat land clutch.an change it back when you come back so you don't throw the rods out of the case.
You guys should dona meet and greet next time.
Yall need to try the trans American trail on your best projects
14:05 The trail where the chain popped off Looks familiar
You boys should have brung that KX80 out there I've been riding dirt bike for over 20 years there's no way I could go back and ride something like that it would be absolutely boring but I do like your videos
So, I'm about to get my first mini bike. I've been eyeing the Trail Master MB200-2. Should I just get the Hurricane instead? Same frame, just stock added front brake, correct?
The neadel only chanched the mixture in the Low and midrange Off the throttle. On full throttle IT IS the Same as bevor. You have to Chance the Jet😅🙂
When explaining the different setups, tell the MSRP of each bike.
Put the yamaha warrior engine in a yard cart frame or a yerf dog frame. That would be sick
Sounds like Ike is suffering from altitude sickness
The C&C Gang need to the Rockies using the Honda Bikes. The Trail 50, 70, 90, 110....
Whichever ones they want, even with the bigger engines they put on them.
The Monkey, DAX, Hunter, Postie bikes are great fun and great at mountain trails.
If you guys are ever in the northern colorado area you should check out kelly flats
Could you guys try a Smart carb on some of your projects?
Where can I get that swing arm for the mega Moto???
The moon toon tune.
Make a shirt
14:43 I’m a LS GUY that’s why went with a 4l80e over the 4l60 TRANS Ls firebird swap 😂😂😅😊
I was backpacking in the Rockies last summer and Ike sounds like I did. Lots of huffing and puffing. That altitude is rough when you are used to only being at 500ft.
Ike. We're getting old. Did you pop some Dramamine before you crawled on that thing? 🤣
I really like the talking and the pov, definitely shoukd put the name of the rider in a corner tho it would help to see who is who kinda
Very nice, wish I was south of our border, to be able to afford it all.
You guys need to try out my vtwin hurricane trailmaster
I cant but think this has been uploaded before? Or is this the same location but different bikes 🤔
I live at 6500ft and have a bone stock except cvt coleman bt200x... would love to take it wher you guys were.
I need to know where I can get that bolt on rear swing arm and shocks for the mega moto like asap😂
Thats a Bit of a Mean Hill for a Mini Bike, But I knew IKE would be the Guy to Make it Up.......
