- In this episode of DIY Willy I finish up building the swing arm for my Mega Moto minibike and we’ll take it for a quick test ride.
My apologies for the bad lighting but I think you’ll be able to see what I am trying to build.
So follow along as we continue to build and upgrade the Mighy Moto Minibike.

Love it so much.
I glad you like it. The bike really rides also. Thanks for watching!!
Nice work. Swing arm looking good.
Thank you for the compliment and thanks for watching.
Nice work Willy!!!
Thanks FBC now I want to find some trails and get a good test ride on it.
Very nice 👍.
Thanks for watching!!
DUDE, THIS IS SO AWESOME! I watched these videos on your swing arm like 3 times now. Im doing an electric conversion and a swing arm mod for my coleman ct200u-ex. I love your heim joint idea but i may do the 'proper' needle bearing or bushing system. I plan to put my electric motor on the swing arm with the wheel to avoid problems with chain geometry and to free up space for the shitload of battery modules im putting where the engine goes. can you adopt me as your nephew or something? Uncle willy rolls off the tongue nicely.
Hello, Glad you like my build. You project sounds very interesting! Are you making build videos? I would like to see them. Yes uncle does sound good. I’m already grandpa Willy. Thanks for watching and stay safe!!
I emailed you. But i'd like to ask here to inspire others. How did you come up with your decision on the dimensions of the 1inch pipe and swing arm length and shock type and length? Did you find a calculator, base it on trigonometry or math somehow, or just kind of wing it?@ly
Hello, I responded to your email but I’ll try and answer your questions here.
I chose to use 1” 120 wall dom tubing for weight and strength. The blue 1/4” tubing added to the bottom is overkill just in case. I figured if there was a weakness it would there. The dimensions well I kinda winged it like you said.
I knew I wanted the center of the rear axle to be 18” back. This was based on the 10” wheel also. It just looked right. I already knew the width the arm needed by what the spacing was for the wheel with spacers.
For the shock I wanted some thing that would hold my butt while riding. I’m not a small guy. I search for a long enough shock with a 900lbs spring. Being a single shock you need the heavy spring.
The swing arm as you know has adjusters for the chain and haven’t had a problem yet with the chain. Let me know if I missed something.. Thanks for watching!!
I like the joints. Pro move.
Yes and work perfectly for the pivot point. I’ve heard other people try it without success but honestly I don’t understand why. We’ll see how long they last. I want to get it on some trails but right now my schedule doesn’t give that time. Hopefully after the first of the year before desert season ends we’ll get it out there.
@@DIYWilly My guess is that they had problems with the threads turning because they didn't weld them after. I've seen those things used on legitimate prerunners so I know they are tough.
The heims are tightened against jam nuts and tubing inserts. I can still unscrew the heims.
Nice build! She's almost ready. The engineering and thought behind the build are appreciated. Much respect. We know a great track you can test it on😉
Thanks man I went several different ideas before going with this one. I want to get it out maybe after the first of the year.
My dad always said if you can't park a semi on it not strong enough he was a bridge builder so his logic to everything was over kill bike is looking nice 👍
I believe in over kill also. Try to make it stronger than it needs to be. It is heavy though…
@@DIYWilly one of the main reasons I love the 212 pro bike is super heavy and don't wheelie I'm going to do some modification to jack shaft since it's a weak point I already welded support into the motor plate but keep breaking bearings I bought some pillows and lock collar and when I get some free time I'm going to use lath at work to cut a new shaft I've got my bsp motor finished will run 12/53 set up on paper motor will spin 10k rpm for 30 sec not really wanting to drag race wanting to go for max mph cousin goes out to the flats almost every year to race his 29 Ford think it would be cool to run a mini bike on Salt flats
That’s sounds like a great project. Definitely take it and run it on the flats. That would be cool to see the speed
lookin good fam i would love to do that to my mini motovox for the winter snow sick vid
Thanks man.. It was a fun build and i would like to do more builds like it.
@@DIYWilly they should make them all like that i want a roller frame like that for this ducar212 i got
Great work Willy for a DIY person I think 🤔 you should have your own shop! Your very creative and smart when it comes to strength and safety keep up the great content can’t wait to see that powder coating if you decide to do so 💪🏼
I appreciate the comment. I haven’t decided yet about paint or powder coating. Can you believe I stuck on what color… I will be taking it apart soon to add much needed support to the frame and rebuild the engine with some new go fast goodie’s. Thanks for watching!
time for the big tank like i got on my mini
Yes I agree the tank is too small now. I just don’t like to many of the options I see out there for the area I have for the tank.
I recently did a swing arm on a Coleman CT200U-EX and displayed the final build. I know what you went through to build this...Looks good...
I’m thinking of installing a swing arm on my other minibike. I’ll check yours out and see what you did. Thanks for watching.
If you have it powder coated, they will sand blast everything.
Thanks for watching!
Need a different tensioner. Just saying. Great job
Thanks for watching.
I think u should sell thos like that shock wheels ready to go
That would be a good idea however there is quite a bit of welding involved to install the current design.
Typo sell 😑
Yea sr never grow old. Question how long did you go with the swing arm?
Hello Oscar, Are you asking how long it took to build it? I still have it and it rides great.. Thanks for watching!!
needs a spring assisted chain tensioner, other than that this is awesome 👌
Been working on that. Thanks for watching.
Pit bike rear suspension work good for mini bike
Yes definitely and would’ve been easier to install. But I wanted to do a complete build and challenge my skills and I think it turned out great. Works perfectly. Thanks for watching
Yea u did a good job at putting that rear suspension together
Thank you
