Absolute torque monsters
I’m 78 years old, I have had several Honda Gold wing motorcycles in my lifetime. Now I have this little scooter and I love it. I have it set up so I can give my great grandbabies a ride. I wish there were someone else in the area I could ride with close to my age. I like these videos
Man, I'm 66 just got a Massimo 200mb, what a blast, I also have a dual sport motorcycle and a quad, never to old !
Mark Collins where are you located? I’m in Northern Alabama
Man, I'm in Arizona, to far !
@@MrPetepictures Hi Mr Pete I'm from north Alabama too (Cullman)
I’m 33 I’m in Tuscaloosa, Al. I ride with anyone wanting to ride. I find myself
up 65 north pretty often. I was raised in Winston County I’m a little bitty town called Addison, Al.
I'm dead, the savage part "They must be 2 year olds"
time to do a one or two day camping trip and see how practical they are on a 30 or 50 mile round trip !
most fun a guy can have with his pants on
Awesome! I laughed when yall both came flying over the driveway!
I'm 5:32 into video Red Beard. Same issues. One bike faster than the other. Gotta finish the video. Thanks for uploading this issue sir!
Ok finally finished watching. I think the zip tie trick will work for sure!!! Thanks Red Beard! Ordering stuff Tuesday! Power sports!
Man that is SO quick. Great job man. To much fun.
Dude Woah! These things haul ass up hill now!! Hill climb race!!!
Thanks as usual for the limitless entertainment! Always enjoy your videos!
Good video! I'm trying to get one of those Coleman's this weekend.
Hey Red beard ,If you back out the screw that holds the throttle from getting its peak power, there is a great difference but the two random holes on the throttle arm hit the bracket so I ground those holes off and got just a little more power, it works great.
Man you guys have it made. Wish I had a yard like that and easy access to a wide breakdown lane, you can test everything without going anywhere.
Yes sir. Hoping to get some land in the next few years to do some real testing
I have a brand new ct200-ex mini bike and I am keeping it stock. I like the way that it handles now. I will buy a new mini bike with a clutch, torque converter and comet drive belt if I want to go faster!!!!! Your upgrades are fantastic if a person wants to go faster on these 200 series mini bikes. Keep up the good work gentlemen and do not let nobody tell you differently!!!!!
I just put a torqe converter on a brand new br200 it's slower now. But is so smooth The back sprocket is why I am here I will definitely upgrade
Thank you for your videos. I have a MB 200 and I love her. She is great to carry things around the ranch and just have fun on. I have learned a lot from you.
Thanks for watching!
Instead of using zip ties you can cut a few coils out of the throttle return spring so you get more throttle. I was hitting 28MPH with this. I was hitting close to 5K and lowered it though with the throttle stop screw cuz I don't have my billet rod installed yet.
Dear rb.
I have a baja warrior.
It is stock except for just neutralizing the gov.
It does 40 mph fairly easily.
Have had it for several years now and never had trouble with the valves.
Again it is stock set up .
Love the vids and thanks..
Bought one of these because of you guys lol! I’ve been working on perfecting my build, I’ve done a few things with it sofar just an air intake carb jet upgrade gov screw removed and ziptie trick and I’m topping out at 33-34 mph. Next up I wanna remove the actual gov and put on one of these sprockets. At some point I straight chained it and topped out at 54 mph that was fun until the chain snapped😂 so I just went back to the regular jackshaft and she runs fine again. Definitely recommend for any beginner I went into this with zero experience and have learned so much just on my own let alone what y’all have taught me through these weeks! Keep putting mini bike vids out!
Was planning on doing something like this. Did the clone engine it came with ever crap out on you after all that?
Came here from Jason explains things 😎👌sweet video's y'all keep it coming
The sprocket link is a dead link but i think i found the universal kit that you used. Ive seen three mods watching this CT200U series that i plan on doing. The predator 212 is already replacing the 190cc stock engine.😊
red beard. if you use your legs as shock absorbers, putting more pressure in them than as you would sit mormal (on the red bike) it makes a big difference going over bumps and how it feels riding.
I just got the same bike but in orange white .. I absolutely love it already
you guys are the Joe cools of motorized fun, just subscribed /all..
'Lonnie, you got them tiny child hands, come here' 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome video! Maybe say "less expensive, economical or reasonably priced" rather than "cheap" when describing something that could possibly come from future sponsors or companies that would like you to review their tools. Your videos are the best because it's hands on, how to and your projects are achievable with knowledge gained from your tutorials. Just a suggestion because I like y'all so much.
I like how you guys don't curse. Thanks
Been wanting one of these for a while! Too much fun!
Cool video! Those bikes look like a lot of fun!
Huge difference with that sprocket swap!! The ziptie trick is the first thing i do to an engine, never had a problem. The way i do it, i cut the head off of one zip tie and put it on the other zip tie. That way its somewhat adjustable( you dont have to tighten it all the way). You can do it that way without removing the tank by feeding the ziptie from the carb side.
can also play games with where the springs are located on the arms, or different weight springs, or alter the springs length. totally recommend spending the 30 bucks for a mini tach to know what you're getting with changes. edit: IMHO, better to have the governor in place working about 44-4500 RPM, with a stock mill that's a bit to the high side as a reminder "hey back off a little!".
will it mess up the engine?
@@ilovecheesecake516 some people say it can, we have never had an issue. It usually wont rev high enough just doing that to cause valve float. To really get the most out of your engine safely, you want a cam, billet rod and a lightweight flywheel atleast.
Nice to see Lonnie doing some presentation.cool vid the one with the shocks I turn it into a 3 wheeler.be neat.
Thanks for all the info. You guys are going to good job
Those look so fun. My brother has a baja heat with a torque converter and a lot of engine mods. When you get the torque converter you will never want to go back to the old clutch
The converter dosnt help with top speed right? For now I’m good at my current speed so I don’t wanna put one on and have that reduced might just upgrade the clutch.
Love your videos guys!!! I just got a slightly used Coleman ct200u ex I’m putting a predator 224 on it!!! I may look into the bigger sprocket
Damn, I just picked up myself a marketplace deal also. Ct200u ex with predator 212 stage one. Looking into a bigger sprocket myself. You ever get one? I also definitely need a new exhaust the one on there is a tiny straight pipe right under the seat. Cool at first, but ungodly loud and after a short ride the spark is gone and I just want it to be quiet 😂
DAAAMN The sprocket is almost as big as the tire 😂🤣
Both bikes are 🔥AWESOMENESS 🔥
We’re do I get a 60 sprocket for my Coleman CT200U ex
Got to love the sound of nature
+mike eichacker and mini bike screaming over the driveway
Thanks for this!!!! My Baja 196 is a dog on hills in the woods, I have ordered a 72 from GPS!!!! Let’s see how I do
Hi Red Beard. I tried the zip tie trick on the spring and gained 5mph. From 25 mph to 30. Would only do 20 out of the box and then backed that screw out that stops the throttle and got it to 25. My neighbor has a Honda trail 70 with a speedo and said his said 28 when I was at top speed.I'm using this SpeedTracker app. I wanna go riding with him right now but he's not home and i can't wait cause I have that performance up grade from Go Power Sports and I'm putting it on today. Thanks for the code and the 10%. I also picked up the muffler. I;m gonna test it for top speed with and without it but for just riding around my neighbor hood after work, a typical suburb 5 miles north of Detroit, and I don't need unhappy neighbors. Awesome videos, everything is explained in detail but plain and simple. Thanks....JOE
Thanks for watching and supporting the channel man
The header gave me 3mph and the air cleaner and jet and tube gave me 2 more for a top speed of 35 and tons of torque, and I weigh 292. Oh yeah, when I did the zip tie I started the motor like usual, put the choke on, pull the rope and when I turned the choke off the bike started to move thats how much more rpm's there was.Where next? I'm not sold on a torque converter, everyone saya it's much faster but most people at the Detroit mini bike races use clutches and some are hitting 60+. th-cam.com/video/oXAjZeHu79w/w-d-xo.html
How will I know when I need the stronger valve springs and do you have a video for that? Ok, watched the vid again and I need the springs but will wait for the video for that. Did it on a few cars 45+ years ago and the heads were off the car so I would like to see it done.
+RalphTheDog #1 a cvt is my favorite. There is a video on how to do the upgraded valve springs on my channel. There the same on all these engines.
Thanks....JOE
The new intro is sick!
Wow man I like this video I was laughing and smiling through the whole thing so much torque it looks like so much fun.
They are a blast now
You all are definitely having fun out there. You really do need to gusset the frame ASAP. For safety, but I'm sure you know that.
You guys rock, you make cool fast stuff!
I heated my header pipe up with a lil torch and tweaked it in on a nice angle and made it go straight out right side of frame after burning my leg twice!! Wearing shorts. It’s much better this way on a mini bike.
Hey man I have a Coleman CTU 200 love it I'm going to change the sprocket love the videos Man... Happy Thanksgiving
Wicked difference
There's even more power and torque to be had if you change the sprockets on the crank. The only issue is that the clutches might burn up from the stress.
Thanks for doing the video. I just purchased the little Coleman camo bike to use around the ranch, we have a few Hills and it goes way too fast with the factory OEM sprocket...without you I would have never known!!
Glad we could help man.
Soooo..... 670cc with the 60 tooth in the camo bike, billet rods and flywheel!
GOTCHA!
If you wanna die lmfao
@@Agavegaming ok, stretch it 24 inches! LoL... less wheelie, more pull.... maybe!

Great story RBG 🤙🏻👍🏻✌🏻
Yo love the vids keep up the good work man
big fan of your videos, just had a new falcon delivered to me yesterday. did your spring zip tie trick before i even took it on the first ride. as long as you dont hold it wide open, it will not blow up. i am about 6'1" 265lbs and i cant believe how well the bike hauls my girth around. looking forward to your other projects and vids. keep up the good work!
Thanks for supporting us man.
great video, if I change to the larger sprocket will I have to change the chain??
And it hurt like a Motha! U guys are dope hopefully I buy a new mini bike asap
wish you had a 12 / 63 gear set for the camo bike, Mukuni
carb, 36 lb double valve springs and ARC rod / flywheel. And lower rear air pressure .
Okie email me or message me on facebook. I cant find your number sir.
A lot of useful information same bike trying to get
Make sure to let us know what you want to see done to these bikes. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel.
Did they change something on the camo bike? I just got one a week ago and it went 19mph out of the box and 26mph after I removed the throttle set screw.
Please explain size of jackshaft an y can't I find a sprocket that fits like if I want it to pull like a beast an hall ass
I am having trouble finding the 18 lb valve springs for my stock engine 200u-ex. Can you post the link
Looking good man
Good job with the vids keep it up
Just bought one. I like what you're doing. Did you think of increasing the size of the sprocket after the centrifugal clutch? It would keep your wheel sprocket smaller. Apologies if you've already done it. I'm keen to get at mine but there is 4 feet of snow here and no good place to assemble it. Cheers.
TY SO MUCH......HAVNT LAUGHED THAT HARD IN AT LEAST 2 MAYBE 3 DAYS...
Thank you for watching
Hey I use to have one if you remove the govenor screw all the way, instead of pulling the throttle on the handlebars pull the bar at the engine mine would top out at 30 stock
Trick with 72 is rear wheel 4-6" larger and raise axel back 4" and up three using the small grinder and mig .Use the Black Water as a rear tire .
What mini bike would you take with you at a drag strip for pit needs such as bathroom, tool chaser , food go getter ?
is that all you ahve to do with the governer spring,just put a ziptie around it?and if so is this dangerous for the motor
Hi, What length chain do you use on a stock front sprocket and a replacement 60 tooth
rear sprocket? Really enjoy your channel as I just got a BT200 the other day.
Thanks
You guys seem like a hoot to hang out with! Come and do the Gambler 100 here in Oregono!
On a 18” tire with the 72tooth sprocket
Can it hit the ground from leaning?
I was able to get twice the top speed by removing the Jack shaft assembly and then I turned the clutch around and put a new chain on it I went from a top speed of 22mph to a top speed of 58mph
This is exactly what I'm doing please tell me what bike you did it on. The colman ctu-ex 200 or the smaller version?
Hey man I just bought a Coleman ctu-uex 200, and it came with a bad jackshaft and bearings. but I have the new pieces, just waiting on the new jackshaft, what are my options on how to make this bike run better?
@@Downtown.TonyBrown back out the screw on the throttle or bend the piece that hits it.
I died at the savage part😂
I HAVE A 2016 CT 200 U AND A 2017 200 EX WHICH I BUILT THE ENGINE ,IT RUNS GREAT ,BUT WHERE CAN I BUY A LARGER REAR SPROCKET ? THANKS PAUL
I need a 5/8 11 tooth clutch for my grandsons 49cc mini bike. I'm wandering which one might stand up the best.! Any recommendations. Thanks..!
Hey red beard! Is it ok to zip tie the spring for the governor without any thing else? I wanted to do a very easy cheap mod but is it ok to?
Cool video looks like fun.. what type of motors are you using are they meant for motorbikes?
I like your videos shout from Puerto Rico where off roading is a big thing. Can you do a video on proper maintenance of the Coleman CT200U ex? I’m new to this and got that mini bike as a Christmas present from myself to my self. Yet don’t know much about this.
Loving minibike Monday y'all. Oh and you did not break the throttle arm, my ct200u-ex is the same way but my daughters ct200u's still have them, for some reason the new ones are coming with it cut down.
Thats good to know. Maybe so people cant get there pants or something caught in them or something. Thanks for watching
I got a hold of 26lb valve springs for my 212cc off ebay
When replacing the valve springs, Can you get the right spacing on the valve without the thickness gauges?
I just bought an RB200 coleman bike for my wife to tootle around on when camping. What are the best low cost performance options I can do immediately? I also have a few GX270 engines laying around, but I think their 1" bore and have 2:1 gear reduction boxes on them. Can they be used with minor parts changes? I thought about a bully clutch new gears, governor removal, hp springs valves, roller rockers, billet flywheel and a mikuni carb and header? Does shaving the head offer much performance increase? I have access to race fuels if needed.
Zip ties... using my bag of tricks now!! haha
Great Videos , you guys are having to much fun . Would a 420 cc fit in those frames .
Hi Redbeard . I am a big guy like yourself. For slow speed trail riding,.. 60 tooth on a brand new one? As the 1st mod.? Even before the governor? Not interested in top speed. I am concerned with the clutch and hills . Thanks
I much prefer clutches over torque converters on minibikes even in the woods. With the right gearing they work great much better response than a torque converter
TC's have that slip/grab action that isn't always as consistent/predictable as a clutch. TC's are cool for how they'll give grunt then grow legs too for sure.
I prefer my torque converter because I like low and top end. I have 3 mini bikes, one is geared low with a clutch and only does 25 but will get there quick as hell, the other is geared high with a clutch and does 58mph but takes a little while to get there and my torque converter bike does 49mph and gets there real quick. For slow rides the geared low bike is great, for long high speed rides my geared high bike is great but for all around riding the torque converter takes the cake. That's just my opinion as well as you have yours. No matter what, we can all agree mini bikes are fun as hell
I don't like the stock chain or sprocket if I don't add a torque converter but just add the new sprocket could I keep life long still for the engine doing that ?
Seeing how much you got out of the red one makes me wish I hadn't slept on the one I found. I could've had some serious fun
Cool video. It's always fun to get more speed. I used to ride minibikes but that was 40 years ago. Now I have electric mountain-bikes which are actually pretty cool. You can usually add an extra battery to up the voltage and get more speed. I like the kits because you can change parts like the motor controller to handle the extra voltage and current. Also, I swear by 12AH deep-cycle SLA batteries (like Powersonic, for example) because they are easy to deal with (simple charger, no balancer), fairly inexpensive and lots of power... But they are heavy, so you always have to figure out a way to mount them mid-frame. 1/2" plywood and Gorilla tape works for me. The rear hub-motor never burns out, so you can run a 36V motor at 48V or 60V, (if you are crazy enough :-). Just make sure to have good knobby tires:and V-brakes for your mountain bike. -)
But, seriously, I usually just ride my bike at 36V because it gets me to the store and back with no problems. :-)
For pulling deer out on some hills what would u do to Coleman for more pulling?
was sweet I'm only running a 100 cc cheap original engine with a mikuni carb and small air filter 1 long chain from clutch to rear and it's averaging 40 to 50 kms ish I'm not running the governor but it's not fully removed yet and a stock exhaust system
I have a br200 I raised the engine and put a torqe conversion kit on. It's a tad slower but so smooth. It also changed how the whole engine ran.ima buy a 60t and see what happens
What's that blue side by side? Front suspension looks cool
Great vid... very informative
Where can I get a fork suspension for my Coleman? Also what do you guys do to fix squeaking on rear axles could it be wheel bearings? I have an extended Coleman I believe it’s a 200 with a 301cc 40 series tc, exhaust pipe and air filter, what would I need to gain more top speed?
Hey I have a question why do you guys not use Nibbi carbs? I run one on my ct200U pretty moded out and I love it and it is just a sexy thing to look at.
Those bikes are hilarious. Wish I had money for one but nobody to ride with. ☹️
I have a ex one I did the folding the throttle tab down trick to to try to bypass some of the governor. Will the zip tie method help as well? Mine is totally stock and it goes about 25 probably. Hoping to get it in the low 30s.
5:55 SAVAGE
Can you flip around the jack shaft and change the gearing that way?
got the 72 sprocket on there. but I cannot remember the order of parts. is it the #7 spacer that goes next to the bearing? or is it the #8 flat washer??? thanks for your help.
Just picked up the camo one, seems like a lot of noise coming from chain or Jack shaft. Spring on tensioner not too strong. You guys do any mods on them?
Also I can't believe a you get is 28 mph on the 6.5 hp. When I was a kid we got 38mph on a 3.5 hp Techumseh. And 5hp Rupps, hit 60mph.
Hey I have a question I recently bought a Colman c100x and to give it a little bit more speed I bent the throttle screw stop back so it gets full throttle and now it gets up to about 33 miles an hour but will just damage the engine?
What happens if I just change the sprocket to a 60, do I need to make your other modifications to feel the difference from stock.
Was thinking about adding a 40 sprocket on my original 196. Is that a bad idea for trying to push less RPMs or am I just going to face problems in the future because the engine will have to pull more.
what parts would you recommend for speed on flat pavement?
