Honda Trail 70 125cc 4 speed Swap!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 เม.ย. 2019
- Ike's original 72cc 3 speed engine on his 1972 Honda Trail 70 met it's end when he rode the street legal mini bike 60 miles at high RPM. Today, we're installing a new 125cc 4 speed semi automatic engine for increased performance, reliability, and fuel mileage. My CT70 has a 140cc 4 speed and performs really well, but Ike wanted a good fuel range.
Thanks for Watching!

Ill be honest. One of the main reasons I come to this channel is for the 90’s retro look Ike sports. The beaded necklace, wallet chain, long sideburns and the cargo shorts transport me back to a simpler time.
I breathe in the nostalgia and savor every moment.
Great comment
cant forget the backward fitted hat
“I nicked your paint”
Ike gives him a death glance while scuffing new paint
These guys never get old
This thing purrs! I'm read y for a 190cc swap!
CarsandCameras sub to me and I’ll sub to you if you don’t your year is cursed
You are ready?
My 125cc gave out on me lol at Busco Beach Saturday, got about 30 minutes ride time... Time for new one.
You all should find Mini Choppers or Mini Crotch Rockets and toss 190cc on them. It would be neat to see you with a pavement pounder. Also, very new content if there is road course or something available. Big engine on the Dragster?? Would love to see more success out of that project, you all really put some time into it!
You will love the 190cc total game changer. Only difference will be the exhaust comes out at a different angle has klx style head. I have a 170tr and a piranha with Dayton 190 and the 190 absolutely destroys the 170
please do more pitbike and mini bike videos ad motor swaps these are great
I made a 212cc 3 wheel moped
Trail Buddy for all CT70 parts! They have a labeled, 100% complete, 12vdc, plug n play wiring kit. They are wonderful people too! Great video guys!!!!
I just wanted to comment how good a quality the video and sound is in these video's....probably a side of the show no one appreciates just thought I would give you guys a high five for that.
shout out to the editing team!
I wanna do this same build
Love it! I had one of those as a kid and I never should have sold it. In fact, I may never sell anything ever again
I bought a lifan model 250cc engine came with the engine only have to find all the other accessories, glad you guys use these engines been helping me big time!
I love watching y'alls videos! wrenching on motors is one of my hobbys , watching your vids are real informative.
i love theses videos of the trails 70 ! continue like this !
I love the daily videos, always good to watch during my mid day down time
I just bought a 125 semi auto off of Ebay for my ct90 and it showed up with a broken coil pickup mount, I'm going thru the return process now, never been so disappointed!!! At least I can watch you do yours!
It's funny you guys uploaded this because I just started a 110cc 3 speed swap on my brothers moped yesterday... great video keep up the great content
This is probably my favorite video. Thanks guys for making our Mondays better
hay guys,speaking for all my friends your show is so cool,i do think we been waiting a long time to see that truck running and driving guys.love the show.
Nice work. Saved up for a new 4 speed back in 1970 in lime green. Loved it as a kid !!
Love you channel I’m ordering a 212 from go power sports here soon thank you for showing us that website 2 year support from me.
13:35 good idea to give us the part # Ike! I love the CT videos
Very cool video guys. I really enjoy your work. Those old bikes bring back memories. Unfortunately one was wrecking my buddies Blue Honda Trail 70 over 40 years ago!!!! Anyhow thanks for sharing…… ride on guys!! 🤙🏻😎
Awesome build
Tbolt rocks!! I've done the 125 swap....It's great but just not enough. A 190 is next!
Well, you guys inspired me. I just bought a pretty nice '72 last weekend.
You should get a motorcycle lift like Mustie1 has. I'm sure it would be 100 times more comfortable working on stuff, and help with filming. You guys are doing good
Thank you for the hook up on t bolt. Looks like they have good prices & the parts I’ve been looking for
The younger generation doesn't realize what the Honda mini bikes meant to kids in the 60's and 70's. Before the trail 50/70 series we had these domestic built mini bikes with Briggs & Stratton lawn mower engines, after a little use, they wouldn't even start on a reliable basis anymore. When the Honda's came out they were rock solid reliable and utterly kid proof, they were huge.
I love the trail 70 videos , please keep them coming , I just bought my first ct70 as well , I love it
who would want to ride one of those goofy death traps, well me for one,, like to see what you get for top speed numbers, l only got up to 37 on my stock setup, great vid as always guys,
Hi Mustie :)
RPM or power limited?
We did some top speed runs today with our little GPS app. Ike did 62 on his 125 and I did 68 on my 140. My takeoff is waayyy better though. I recommend the 140 ;) Are you planning on swapping yours?
@@CarsandCameras l have 2 more to put together but want some more go in it, so seeing how you are making out sure has my interest,
@@mustie1 Sounds good man. I'd like to try a 190 on my next one. We should do a tail of the dragon riding collab once you get yours worked out!
I have a Suzuki rv90 that needs to be torn apart and cleaned. I'm hoping to do that soon so I can take it to the meet up you guys do. Thanks for the amazing video on this amazing bike! Cheers!!!
When you adjust the sheet metal to fit the lifan if you have to, use an angle grinder and a cut off wheel to cut this strip cuts back to your pencil mark. I hang the motor in the top bolt and swing the motor mount back into the sheet metal to tell where the sheet metal needs trimmed. There is usually 1-3 spots on the motor near the top and bottom motor mounts than need a moon shape cut out on both sides of the sheet metal frame of the bike. Always mount the top hole first and if the bottom mount hole doesn't line up then you have to drill a new bottom hole in the sheet metal of the bike. I fill the gap between the sheet metal and rear motor mount with washers and bolt it in. The motor is mounted at that point.
@@Youhaverights6 thanks for the info! That will make it easier now. Cheers!
Trail 70 videos are the best!!
I'm looking forward to seeing more on the c10. It's looking great
Used to have a bunch of these when I was younger back then we swapped in the ct 110 moped engines even put one in a little 50 frame definitely some fun bikes
love the mini bike stuff!
That semi auto clutch is really a nicely designed unit.
So glad you guys brought the 70’s back!!! I just picked up a 1972 just like Ike’s. Same candy yellow color. Trying to decide if I will do an 88cc kit on the original engine or do a 125cc swap like you guys.
Yes a channel that uploads regularly about something I have no idea about but wants a mini bike so bad
Like many watching i grew up around alot of these little bikes thank you car's and cameras for all your great content 😀😀😄
I had a 1970 ct 70 as a kid. Wish I still had it
Love your CT70 content, keep it up...
Nice project guys loving it. Just your ordinary big fan down here in Texas...Just wondering if we are going to see a "Drift Trike" come down the line? just wonderin'
Awesome videos!
I am building a 71 CT70H starting from a bare frame.
Little bikes r the best guys great build keep em coming
Can't believe y'all are not at 1M subs!
Mini trail fan myself! I run a manual clutch trail bikes 108 stroker kit. It rips!
Nice swap looks great
I freaking love that truck man
More honda 70 and mini bike builds please!! Can you make mini bikes street legal in your state? If so, that would be an awesome build!
Nice video good start to finish. When will Isaac work on the old Ford again.
i'm not even lying i am currently doing THE EXACT same swap right now because the bike now doesn't have head carb gas tank and seat so i'm fixing that up for a quarantine project
I had a Honda trail 70 that I ran the CRAP out of back in the 80's. Same color. This brings back memories. Never changed the oil in that thing and it just ran and ran...
I also need to add that you guys are a class act. My 10 year old has been watching you for a few years now. He has learned so much from you, and I know he is going to get wholesome, quality content from you. Kudos!
Just found your channel today, and have buzzed through probably 80% of your channel. Heck I signed in JUST to subscribe. Any vids on the sweet NC in the driveway? I spotted the interior on another video (probably the dirtbike race?). As the former owner of NJ's largest dirtbike and ATV website (long gone sadly) I can say without question I've always wanted to revisit my Trail 70, My old ST 90, and numerous other 70 somethings (I'm 51 so.....). Thanks for such a fun channel!
I think we need to see a beach trip with the CT70s
I used a Lifan 110 semi auto,put the honda clutch cover on,footrest bolts straight on.Use the float bowl and petcock from the 70 on the lifan 19mm carb.
Looks standard,but it a little tourque monster,16/30 sprockets tops out at 55mph on the flat.
That head light is Leroy approved. 👍👍
Good video and update on your bike. Question do y’all use the non ethanol fuel in your carts and bikes.
Cool ct70 Ike I have the exact same color as yours and it is also the same year 1972 I was thinking of putting a Zongshen 212cc engine with a rhino vz21 turbocharger also with updated] guage cluster. I love ct70s
Nice bike it looks fun to ride.
Great video. I smell a drag race in the future.
I used to ride mine all over the place. I rode it 45 miles one way to buy parts one summer. Major difference was it was new.
Put an engine on a baby's pram, just had a baby today be fun to get to shops lol ;) not that I really would lol. Great video as always.
It is not spring time JOHN!!! Winter IS HERE♟⚔️♟
You guys have to remake the scene with Harry and Lloyd from dumb&dumber when Lloyd pulls up in the minibike😆🤣👍
i love you guys! i like mini bike. greetings from Argentina
Looks like you guys are finally gunna look into pit bike engines 💪 can’t wait
That. Is. Awesome!
Y'all inspire me to want to turn wrenches again
Love that bike! Considering buying one too. Keep up the cool channel guys!
Thanks, guys.
Love it.. Engines running a little lean... Then does burn out... Let me guess itl be fine.. Love the vids guys..
Love the ct 70 videos , My question is can you adapt a set of for example renthal dirt by camel bars on to that ?
If you do ever decide to rebuild the stock motor you should consider the 88cc big bore kit. Heard that it nearly doubles the stock power of the 70 and is easy to do. I’m in the process of it right now on a 70 motor out of a 1983 three wheeler
Can we get a video from you guys explaining what to buy, for those of us who want to start cutting & joining metal like you guys do? I'm talking about must-have power tools, such as a chop saw. And, what kind of welder to buy? Etc. Thanks for another awesome video!!!
Great video. I have a 1974 ct70 that I just replaced the motor with the 125 cc and 12 volt system, new front end and exhaust. I love it.
I was wondering what sprockets you recommend I order to replace the stock 15 tooth front and 35 t rear. I’m trying to get more speed out of this old girl.
Keep em coming.
Congratulations on the sponsor yall.
I wanna start doing stuff likes this so I’m taking classes in school to learn
such an awesome runaround.
a tittle teakin needed
That little Honda must really motor now. Much fun is going to be had 😁😀😊😄
I did the same conversion a few years ago with the addition of 12 inch rims. You can connect the white and yellow wires together for full time charging. Please remember china engines are shipped with vegetable oil for safety regulations and need to be flushed.
Love that trail 70
I put a pisterpro 140cc in my CT 70 . A fairly straightforward . The engine harness and carb was included in the kit. I had to get separate a clutch perch and cable (pit bike style) and a pit bike set of pegs. ( I weld so I widened the ct70 peg set..) To help me keep my front wheel down I used a 80's xr 80 steel swingarm. And welded the pivot mount from the CT70 swingarm to it . Making about a 10"stretch swinger.
I wish I still had photos , unfortunately they were on photobucket which changed all their policy and I lost 75% or more of all the photos I had there. . My friend @Brian Howard owns the Ct 70/140 now. I believe he is also a Cars and Cameras follower and most likely has photos of it .
Nice headlight iron man. 👍
we used to make old yamaha fs1 , and the frames on them bend like a pretzel when adding power , you might keep an eye on the hondah frame when you put the way more powerfull engine in there , aspecially around the hingepoint for the rear fork
hmmm the rope trick for the spring is a good idea , got my fingers caught in between a spring and the mountingpoint numerous times
as for the electrics , smartest thing to do is go one circuit at a time , actually draw them out piece by piece , makes installing a lot eazier
No annoying music 👍🏻 , just work and talk.
This is an awesome build! Have you guys considered a Honda Ruckus?
Them bikes are awesome
My trail90 with lifan125 with a 15 tooth sprocket on motor and 45 tooth sprocket on rear wheel I believe 16inch wheel. Does between 45 and 60 miles an hour for 80 to 100 miles at a time between towns here in nevada. It rides like a xr200. I put Renthal handle bars for a regular dirt bike on. I run a rear tire on front and back of my trail90.
At 2:31 and 13:57 I had an overwhelming subliminal desire for hot coffee and a bacon egg and cheese biscuit
Surprised you guys didn't 420 swap like everything else.
Always that one guy bitching about a free show..
@@toejamr1 did he say anything about free show .......
Michael McFarland yes...yes he did lol. He commented on this very free show that we are also commenting on. Wtf lol
@@toejamr1 the real question is, was he bitching? Lol all he said hes suprised they didnt 420 it lol
@@toejamr1 how was he "Bitching" about it?
So, why not swap over the Trail's stator and clutch side covers instead of trying to age the Lifan's?
Take it off any sweet jumps?
Have you guys ever used black shoe polish to add a faux patina look? Mustie has used it, I feel like a little of that in the right places on the engine would make it look great.
tbolt is my #1
So if you had to do the swap again, what engine and size would you recommend. Seems to be a lot of choices available.
Could you please do a full video on the wiring?
For $35 you can just buy a mostly complete harness, otherwise the stock wiring can be tricky
YOU GUYS ARE THE HACKMASTERS !! MY HAT IS OFF...
more Trail 70 Please!
Headlight runs off of MAG and is still 6v, run power to a switched POS and replace with 12v bulb. I post as I watch, Glad you got it sorted out.
Looking forward to truck videos!
Oh boy iv been waiting for this hope u guys have a blessed day #best youtube channel
Man this makes me want to get my Honda trail 70 125cc swapped out and fix it
T bolt came at me like a sneaky left hook!
