My old 49cc 4 stroke motorized bicycle got maybe 130 mpg, but it was the belt drive transmission and that made it geared low, but it would rip up to 20 mph quick! Definitely gonna build another one.
I have two 49cc 4-strokes with the belt-drive, they both have 36tooth sprockets, and they both top-out at 33 to 35mph, they are packing a 250lb rider, 20mph isn't right at all.
@@jerryb1234 To be fair, he didn't say it topped out at 20mph, but that it got up to that speed quickly. I'm guessing after that it slowly got into the upper 20's mph. Just giving him the benefit of the doubt.
I have a completely stock 4 stroke belt drive kit with 44t sprocket and I only get 21 mph so he’s not lying. I suppose with a 36T rear sprocket you’d get a higher top speed but lose the bottom end. I can ride through grass and up hills all without ever having to pedal
That thing is fast. Ever try and E bike? They’re pretty cool, it looks just like a regular bike with a hidden electric motor that just gives you extra help.
Yeah man she rips. About as fast as I would consider going on a bicycle. And yeah I rode my buddies eBike out in California a bunch. It was incredible, but his cost like $4,000. I was recently looking into them, and I'm not thrilled with the mileage range either.. That's what got me looking into the gasoline bikes.
Heck yeah man. I just rode this bike a hundred miles up to Manhattan the other day. Everybody was on electric bikes up there and I was the only guy on Dino fuel. Lol
that sounds like a whole lot of fun! i recently put together a few kits for some 2 stroke engines, i didnt know they made 4 stroke or i would have gone with one of them!
My Son bought me an 80cc Grumbee 2 stroke for my Bicycle many years back ...I was 272 pounds back then .That little engine carried me at 38 MPH ...I rode it in Pinellas county Fl .I cant tell you how many times I got pulled out in front of and skidded off the road ..Fun But Scary Ride

Im in Thunder Bay Ontario Canada and the law changed for mopeds (motorized or electric) doesn’t matter - you need to be licensed and insured same as a motorcycle. There are levels from full motorcycle M license, all the way down to limited speed motorized bicycle license but the process to attain is exactly the same. So honestly not much point in just getting the lower license levels, but kicker is what ever you bring to the road test is what you will get licensed for. A full M license you can drive anything but obviously with the lower levels you get more n more limited to what u can drive. A few years ago for mopeds it used to be a free for all but now with popularity increasing police will enforce the law. I wish i could get one of these and freely cruze around but its a piss off! I could just get one anyway and try sticking to bike lanes, back lanes and quiet streets… i love tinkering with engines. I keep all my small motors running mint!
awesome ride . thought you were going to hit that car for sure. great on gas so much fun and the places you can go on these things are just awesome . i own two now china dolls . there alot of fun to ride . one is still in build mode but i know when its done it will be a blast . be safe buddy .
ok so there are TONS of performance parts for the two stroke kits. Some of which I reckon could be adapted or modified over to the 4 strokes. Like the spring-loaded chain tensioner. Obvioulsy you'd need to fab up a custom cover, but it should help with the chain slop.
I just ordered some new chain guide wheels. So I'm waiting on those but excited to get this thing back on the road for a hundred mile ride! I'll ride it till the cops confiscate it lol.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow yeah luckily here in the deep south, cops have better things to do than harass bike riders. Either that or more lax laws. Or both. Have you taken the bike out offroad? What about exhaust mods?
I just built one of these. Couldnt get the 2 stroke to work right but 4 stroke made it on the road. Doesnt do what mopeds can do but at least it gets you where you need to go.
Great footage. How did you manage to get such stable footage? Are you using your phone or GoPro? Any Gimbals used? Really an awesome Motorized bike build. I wasn't expecting a Chinese motor to make it this far. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventure! Quite a ride indeed. The close call was very scary. I would never use a hand held phone while riding in such speeds. 30 mph on a bicycle feels like 100mph in car. lol.
This setup would be ideal to escape the inner city and get out to the woods. Pedal when you need to be quiet, and use the motor when you wanna rip. Upsize the rear sprocket and you can pull a small bike trailer with all your bug-out shit. No joke add this to your kit. Electric bikes are fun but when society breaks down, finding a single gallon of gas will be monumentally easier than a 110 volt outlet for 12 hours
That looked like alot of fun dude..your a cool dude Chris..it would be alot of fun to go riding and grab some beers..keep the vids coming..keep the rubber on the road..🤘
your back spark is on backwards look at it there is a spot wher it is bent outward that supposed to go tward tires flip it around to solve chain rubbing problem
@@MrFacepeel It all depends on the frame type ( rear triangle) and wheel size. On some the sprocket is dished out and on others dished in. Also you need to align the idler wheel by bending the bracket so that the chain runs perfectly in the center and not rubbing in the sides ( can be seen by the damage ). I have built over 23 Motorised Bicycles , Autocycles , from 43cc weedeaters to 50cc 4st's and 50cc and 66cc .
I used to ride my scooter with the 4 wheelers and dirt bikes growing up. Had to reach around and pick up the back a bit to do burnouts. Could you add fatter tires on that? And would mirrors be helpful or would they make it harder to conceal it as a normal bike?
Yeah that Honda elite 150 that he did ate burn out with had some balls to it. I suppose I could add fatter tires on the bicycle, but I think I might do a entirely separate build and get a heavier duty frame. Maybe just keep this one as it is. Definitely going to get some small mirrors. Or I've seen they make a mirror for your helmet also. Pretty much had to rely on my ears to know if there was a car coming from behind.
I built one of those identical to yours. Very anemic tragically underpowered even with some mild mods. Rejetted carb and cleared ports. Still no power. My Phatmoto really out does it. Rebranded the 79 cc as 49 cc
i love my phatmoto. only weakness is primary drive train. i replace pretty often n oil daily. id love to upgrade to belt driven torque converter. all fun no fuss. plus more speed.🍻
Seems every time I see one of these bike builds why do they put the gas tank so close to the seat they can move it way farther up near the handlebars and it looks so much nicer
I had a smaller seat on it. It hurt my ass. Lol. This thing is is going to be my end of the world long distance cruiser. Style is low on the priority list.
I'm 67 years of age now. It's interesting listening to you. With, obviously, no motorcycling background. What you experienced with those couple of cars. Pales in comparison. To other roadway, close calls, I've had. Over the past, 43 years. Without getting killed. By, drunk cops at, 4:30 AM. That nearly ran me down. By blowing through a stop sign from a secondary road. Across a, state highway. That I had the right-of-way on. And there's no way he could've not seen me coming. And nearly ran me over. I had to lay the bike down in the grass. And busted my left side, front and back, amber turn signals. In my bike was relatively new. I was pissed. Of course there was also the rear blowout at,, 65 mph. On the Dulles Airport tollroad. In heavy traffic. And my motorcycle, virtually out-of-control. All of the other drivers were able to avoid me. As I slid by, three lanes of traffic. Making it to the shoulder. Without ever going down. As I allowed what was left of my rear tire. To direct me where it wanted to take me. And try to, avoid the cars. And did. People in cars do not see, motorcyclists. They just don't. You need 360 degree, vision. You must be attentive, at all times. You must be ready to go, airborne. And know what to do when you hit the pavement again. Because it will happen. Not if but when. And of course hitting potholes. That are deep. Are a lot of fun! If you don't go flying off the bicycle. And under the tires of cars. Which would ruin your day. So don't do that. And you might live a little longer? But no guarantees. I think you help me make up my mind. I'm going for the 4 stroke bicycle kit. I can't stand listening to, 2 stroke motors. Yang Yang Yang Yang. No thank you. Great for young kids. I like it quieter and smoother. As it's easier on hemorrhoids. So great video! Thanks for your wonderful reviews. And I think a 4 stroke bicycle kit in my near future. As I no longer have my, cruiser motorcycle. I had for over 30 years. I loved and miss that motorcycle, terribly. As I was one, with that bike. And it was one with me. We loved each other's company. We enjoyed cruising the East Coast of the United States. And through the mountains. The Poconos. The Adirondacks. The Shenandoah. And the Blue Ridge. What fabulous mountain motorcycling that is! And you always meet other bikers. At the picnic stops. And lookouts. And we are all one big, motorcycling family. I miss those days of my life. Before my brain surgery. Not falling off any motorcycle or bicycle. Not falling off. It was a health condition. That nearly killed me. And not the motorcycle. It's really a little scary. If you hit something on the highway and go airborne. It certainly is, exciting and exhilarating, yes. But completely unintentional. When that happens. And you have to be ready. You have to know what to do. Otherwise you're going down, hard. And that breaks bones and causes road rash. So don't do that either. But it is creepy scary. When you find yourself, airborne. Particularly on a, 550 pound motorcycle. Which was not designed, to ever go airborne. And I marveled over my survival! How the heck am I still alive? But I am! Time for a beer. It's Miller time. Because after that. Who the hell would want to drive sober? So I recommend not driving sober on your motorcycle. You want to be relaxed when you go down. And since a motorcycle does not normally kill, pedestrians. Or, Republicunt's. Though I have considered that option. In the end. It was a good reason for me to, move away from, Washington, DC. And sold by motorcycle. With antique tags. I had purchased new. And the antique tags made me feel, really, really old. But without any gray hair. How would anybody know? I don't look 67. And I don't have a Hollywood plastic surgeon. Much less a Mexican one. I'm aging gracefully. By deciding not to age. But my body keeps slapping me in the phase going schmuck! You're 67! And then I fell off my bicycle. After I had come to a stop. As you should not forget to put your feet, firmly on the ground,, beneath you. When you bring a bicycle to a, full stop. After brain surgery I forgot to do that. I did like that. Who falls off their bicycle after they stop? That has been Riding in marathons. For,, 50 years. And now my health has retired me. Aided by a virus two years ago. That brought my work to a halt. So a motorized bicycle with a 4 stroke. Sounds like a good compromise. Thanks. RemyRAD
Heck yeah, see I got the 2 stroke version of this on ebay for like $100 shipped and the only real issue with this kit is the fact that once you put the engine on your Mt bike you can no longer ride it as a normal bike using the pedals because it has a clutch lever and in order to spin freely you have to be squeezing the lever thee entire time because rather than a pull-start you simply release the clutch which engages the motor and you pedal to start it... Lil thing definitely ripppps tho lol it's a 90cc 2 stroke I've gotten her up past 40mph and it had more in it but the whole bike was vibrating so badd that you just didn't feel right going that fast or any faster on it... After buying the kit and putting it on an old bike I started looking into them and there's an entire community of these things and a huuuge modification/upgrade market for stupid cheap! I've seen guys ripping the highway doing 80+mph on a freakin Mt bike with a lil 2 stroke engine on it buzzing away smh not going to catch me doing that but it is cool nonetheless... Now for some strange reason I find I get a whole lot more enjoyment out of my "Rad Power City 5" E-bike she will do 28mph and climb any hill ive needed it too with ease and has a range of 45mi per charge but I went ahead and ordered a spare battery on Amazon for $280 doubling my range on it but with the regenerative braking and pedaling I have yet to need to switch to the 2nd battery because it literally charges itself anytime you're moving the pedals or use your brakes... thing is ugly as sin but man is it fun!
Maybe you can make a guard out of a Teflon cutting board to keep the chain off your frame. I'll bet if you had thinner road tires you'd get more speed and be quieter. Glad you didn't die there. Get a blinky front light .Or two
Yeah, that's what I was thinking some kind of plastic chain guard or something. And definitely going to get some obnoxious lights on this thing! that guy maybe was going to stop, but based on the eye contact and body language I saw (which the camera couldn't pick up on), I decided to bail. I've already went over the hood of a car a couple times before.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I've gone over a good myself. Size matters. If you were a lifted F350 doing 10 mpg, he would have waited. A skinny bike doing 40mph and the brain doesn't register it. Doesn't matter who's fault when you are in the ICU. Us 2 wheel guys need to think we are invisible. Because we are
Yeah buddy, i have so much fun going on adventures with my homemade vehicles.. Any dipshit can go n buy crap and most of the time the mass produced shit is exactly that unless u drop some heavy bread and that defeats the idea of a home vehicle.. i got an ebike i build from scratch before people ever seen e bikes and it does 40-45mpg depending on your skill level and understanding of aerodynamics of course but its got just over 10000miles on the clock! THATS RIGHT FOLKS OVER 10K MILES that never broke down n left me stranded, no sir i dont play.. when i do shit mr wright is kinda obligated to actually do it right cause, breaking down is bullshit 😂 but ive built gas bikes but they suck
Just bought this kit.. I think maybe I'll get a bigger rear sprocket for more torque, because I mainly want it so I don't have to pedal uphill. Hopefully it has enough power for steep dirt trails. That way I can enjoy downhill without the uphill
Really want to do a mid-drive conversion with the Honda GXH50. Fuel consumption is 0.91 litres an hour at 7000 rpm 1.6 kw. Should be enough power for 40 mph or more with pedaling, which is about 1/4 US gallon for 40 miles at top speed. 50:1 reduction on the cranks and 48 or 52 tooth with 32-11 cassette should get some overdrive as there is still quite a bit of power at the torque peak of 4500 which should use even less fuel (even better than 160 mpg US hehe) and also reasonably good hill gears though maybe not offroad. I've got a Bafang BBS02B kit that I'm happy with though and very quiet save for the rattling of my bike. That would be a police magnet in the UK.
I had a Chinese motor. made to fit V frame mountain bike.all I had to watch were big lorries and such.it was good until it ceased up on me on my way to work.since the pedals work,I simply peddled it back home.I could not start it up again.spark was there,two stroke oil starvation I reckon??
nice. ive done well over 50 in a day. 1000s of miles on my phatmoto so far. gas bikes are legal on trails same as ebikes thanks to disabled advocacy groups.🍻
Wear a high viz vest next time. And maybe use an LED front light as a day light running light. I do that when riding my motorcycle. It helps . As for the chain, you need a sprung chain tensioner on the slack side. (Similar to a timing belt tensioner on some car engines)
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow well darn, we have ordinance allowing golf carts ect in my township, I was thinking this would be a great alternative lol. Cheaper too
Love it correct me if im wrong, From a 40-mile trip is divided by .75 gallons you bought. I think it's 53.3 for a 2-stroke is IMPRESSIVE ANYWAY YOU COOK IT!
They are NOT. My tires like to cause problems since the back tire is balding and the front tire speed wobbles over 45km and the ones i have (regular mountain bike tires) are quite thin and not ideal for many conditions.
You should be able to start from rest by just twisting the throttle without pedaling. Also it should be able to handle hills without pedaling as well. I can see what you are missing is the choke switch, which is the white plastic that you didn't touch at all, and is left at the closed position all the while, that's why you're not getting enough power. You are supposed to close it when cold-starting the engine, and then open when it's already running, where the bike can be operated like a regular scooter. With the choke operational and you still have the same issues, then your centrifugal clutch is faulty.
No, its geared for top speed and efficiancy, if you cant get going, you need to buy a wheelchair. As for going uphill, it would be far easier, more like riding on the flat with the engine, and therefore absolutely no point in gearing it to start. Would you drive everywhere in 1st in your car?? That wastes power and fuel.
Gotta put a headlight on it. I can't believe you didn't get shir for crossing the trenton makes bridge I understand no problem from the Washington crossing bridge and a good thing you didn't have your phone in your other hand I don't trust drivers around here but that thing was ripping faster than I thought and the mileage is amazing. Good luck.
Go to your local welderhe can heat that frame up and bend it to allow the chain clearance or cut a section out and weld a piece of flatstock to the outside and your good . But don't over tighten the chain they do like to run with a tiny bit of slack.
Man I have one of these on my bike. Same kit of Amazon. I didn't get many miles on mine and the small chain inside the gear reduction case stretched out and there isn't a way to tighten it. I couldn't find any chain either. I did end up buying a whole new clutch gear box. It was like 30 bucks. Sense changing it I haven't rode it at all. Just collecting dust in the garage... nice video!
Good on you for at least wearing a bright colored helmet. Still even with motorcycles with their headlights on they get cut off and hit all the time. Really sucks. Glad you didn’t crash because it definitely looked like you were about to hit him!
You always hear about how good a motorized bike is but you never hear about how often you have to replace the tires because of wear….or how expensive they are…
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Seems like stone age vs iron age to me. The aesthetics of a 2 stroke are appealing tho but it seems so rudimentary. What motor can be modded better or more easily? Someone said a 4 stroke is hard to work on.
I had one of those but it was a two-stroke my neighbour loved it he said it’s keeping you out of trouble which is a good thing Never got pulled over by cops everybody loved it RIP Two-stroke engine
I have one on my main bike and I mean yeah it's cool and all. But I got to say on some level I prefer the control and separate brake levers. With the single lever the only way you can adjust out the braking force between front and back is with washers on the brakes. I've had a wreck where my ass end out and dumped me before
maybe "end of the world" motorised bicycle could run on just about anything cos u know gas stations out of gasoline so maybe moonshine (ethanol), wood alcohol (methanol) or wood gas one can make themselves out in wild haha

ok so there are TONS of performance parts for the two stroke kits. Some of which I reckon could be adapted or modified over to the 4 strokes. Like the spring-loaded chain tensioner. Obvioulsy you'd need to fab up a custom cover, but it should help with the chain slop.
Yeah I was looking at those spring loaded tensioners. I think I might try to make something similar to that
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I haven't ever used one, though I've heard that you need to shorten the chain to use it properly.
I just ordered some new chain guide wheels. So I'm waiting on those but excited to get this thing back on the road for a hundred mile ride! I'll ride it till the cops confiscate it lol.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow yeah luckily here in the deep south, cops have better things to do than harass bike riders. Either that or more lax laws. Or both. Have you taken the bike out offroad? What about exhaust mods?
I just built one of these. Couldnt get the 2 stroke to work right but 4 stroke made it on the road. Doesnt do what mopeds can do but at least it gets you where you need to go.
Great footage. How did you manage to get such stable footage? Are you using your phone or GoPro? Any Gimbals used? Really an awesome Motorized bike build. I wasn't expecting a Chinese motor to make it this far. Thank you for sharing your awesome adventure! Quite a ride indeed. The close call was very scary. I would never use a hand held phone while riding in such speeds. 30 mph on a bicycle feels like 100mph in car. lol.
This setup would be ideal to escape the inner city and get out to the woods. Pedal when you need to be quiet, and use the motor when you wanna rip. Upsize the rear sprocket and you can pull a small bike trailer with all your bug-out shit. No joke add this to your kit. Electric bikes are fun but when society breaks down, finding a single gallon of gas will be monumentally easier than a 110 volt outlet for 12 hours
Pedal by people is a smart move for sure
Shout out to the homie who got all the trash
That looked like alot of fun dude..your a cool dude Chris..it would be alot of fun to go riding and grab some beers..keep the vids coming..keep the rubber on the road..🤘
I know exactly what you mean about it being scary to ride on the road.
I myself love the trails 😉
your back spark is on backwards look at it there is a spot wher it is bent outward that supposed to go tward tires flip it around to solve chain rubbing problem
I will check it out. Thanks! I put it on the way that I saw it installed on other people's pictures
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow mine rubbed the same way too let me know if it helped too
@@MrFacepeel It all depends on the frame type ( rear triangle) and wheel size. On some the sprocket is dished out and on others dished in. Also you need to align the idler wheel by bending the bracket so that the chain runs perfectly in the center and not rubbing in the sides ( can be seen by the damage ). I have built over 23 Motorised Bicycles , Autocycles , from 43cc weedeaters to 50cc 4st's and 50cc and 66cc .
I used to ride my scooter with the 4 wheelers and dirt bikes growing up. Had to reach around and pick up the back a bit to do burnouts.
Could you add fatter tires on that? And would mirrors be helpful or would they make it harder to conceal it as a normal bike?
Yeah that Honda elite 150 that he did ate burn out with had some balls to it. I suppose I could add fatter tires on the bicycle, but I think I might do a entirely separate build and get a heavier duty frame. Maybe just keep this one as it is. Definitely going to get some small mirrors. Or I've seen they make a mirror for your helmet also. Pretty much had to rely on my ears to know if there was a car coming from behind.
You changed your channel name? That's cool
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow yea switched things up a bit.
I built one of those identical to yours. Very anemic tragically underpowered even with some mild mods. Rejetted carb and cleared ports. Still no power. My Phatmoto really out does it. Rebranded the 79 cc as 49 cc
i love my phatmoto. only weakness is primary drive train. i replace pretty often n oil daily. id love to upgrade to belt driven torque converter. all fun no fuss. plus more speed.🍻
Seems every time I see one of these bike builds why do they put the gas tank so close to the seat they can move it way farther up near the handlebars and it looks so much nicer
If you change that seat to something smaller the bike would actually look cool
I had a smaller seat on it. It hurt my ass. Lol. This thing is is going to be my end of the world long distance cruiser. Style is low on the priority list.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow your butt probably hurt more because 100% of your weight is on the seat. You aren't pedaling to counteract your body weight
@@64maxpower true! That's a great point you bring up. I was peddling for some of the ride. Basically anytime I was under 20 miles an hour
@17:33 Guy on trail putting his mask on... lol
I'm 67 years of age now. It's interesting listening to you. With, obviously, no motorcycling background.
What you experienced with those couple of cars. Pales in comparison. To other roadway, close calls, I've had. Over the past, 43 years. Without getting killed. By, drunk cops at, 4:30 AM. That nearly ran me down. By blowing through a stop sign from a secondary road. Across a, state highway. That I had the right-of-way on. And there's no way he could've not seen me coming. And nearly ran me over. I had to lay the bike down in the grass. And busted my left side, front and back, amber turn signals. In my bike was relatively new. I was pissed.
Of course there was also the rear blowout at,, 65 mph. On the Dulles Airport tollroad. In heavy traffic. And my motorcycle, virtually out-of-control. All of the other drivers were able to avoid me. As I slid by, three lanes of traffic. Making it to the shoulder. Without ever going down. As I allowed what was left of my rear tire. To direct me where it wanted to take me. And try to, avoid the cars. And did.
People in cars do not see, motorcyclists. They just don't. You need 360 degree, vision. You must be attentive, at all times. You must be ready to go, airborne. And know what to do when you hit the pavement again. Because it will happen. Not if but when.
And of course hitting potholes. That are deep. Are a lot of fun! If you don't go flying off the bicycle. And under the tires of cars. Which would ruin your day. So don't do that. And you might live a little longer? But no guarantees.
I think you help me make up my mind. I'm going for the 4 stroke bicycle kit. I can't stand listening to, 2 stroke motors. Yang Yang Yang Yang. No thank you. Great for young kids. I like it quieter and smoother. As it's easier on hemorrhoids.
So great video! Thanks for your wonderful reviews. And I think a 4 stroke bicycle kit in my near future. As I no longer have my, cruiser motorcycle. I had for over 30 years. I loved and miss that motorcycle, terribly. As I was one, with that bike. And it was one with me. We loved each other's company. We enjoyed cruising the East Coast of the United States. And through the mountains. The Poconos. The Adirondacks. The Shenandoah. And the Blue Ridge. What fabulous mountain motorcycling that is! And you always meet other bikers. At the picnic stops. And lookouts. And we are all one big, motorcycling family. I miss those days of my life. Before my brain surgery. Not falling off any motorcycle or bicycle. Not falling off. It was a health condition. That nearly killed me. And not the motorcycle.
It's really a little scary. If you hit something on the highway and go airborne. It certainly is, exciting and exhilarating, yes. But completely unintentional. When that happens. And you have to be ready. You have to know what to do. Otherwise you're going down, hard. And that breaks bones and causes road rash. So don't do that either. But it is creepy scary. When you find yourself, airborne. Particularly on a, 550 pound motorcycle. Which was not designed, to ever go airborne. And I marveled over my survival! How the heck am I still alive? But I am! Time for a beer. It's Miller time. Because after that. Who the hell would want to drive sober?
So I recommend not driving sober on your motorcycle. You want to be relaxed when you go down. And since a motorcycle does not normally kill, pedestrians. Or, Republicunt's. Though I have considered that option. In the end. It was a good reason for me to, move away from, Washington, DC. And sold by motorcycle. With antique tags. I had purchased new. And the antique tags made me feel, really, really old. But without any gray hair. How would anybody know? I don't look 67. And I don't have a Hollywood plastic surgeon. Much less a Mexican one. I'm aging gracefully. By deciding not to age. But my body keeps slapping me in the phase going schmuck! You're 67! And then I fell off my bicycle. After I had come to a stop. As you should not forget to put your feet, firmly on the ground,, beneath you. When you bring a bicycle to a, full stop. After brain surgery I forgot to do that. I did like that. Who falls off their bicycle after they stop? That has been Riding in marathons. For,, 50 years. And now my health has retired me. Aided by a virus two years ago. That brought my work to a halt.
So a motorized bicycle with a 4 stroke. Sounds like a good compromise. Thanks.
RemyRAD
Heck yeah, see I got the 2 stroke version of this on ebay for like $100 shipped and the only real issue with this kit is the fact that once you put the engine on your Mt bike you can no longer ride it as a normal bike using the pedals because it has a clutch lever and in order to spin freely you have to be squeezing the lever thee entire time because rather than a pull-start you simply release the clutch which engages the motor and you pedal to start it... Lil thing definitely ripppps tho lol it's a 90cc 2 stroke I've gotten her up past 40mph and it had more in it but the whole bike was vibrating so badd that you just didn't feel right going that fast or any faster on it... After buying the kit and putting it on an old bike I started looking into them and there's an entire community of these things and a huuuge modification/upgrade market for stupid cheap! I've seen guys ripping the highway doing 80+mph on a freakin Mt bike with a lil 2 stroke engine on it buzzing away smh not going to catch me doing that but it is cool nonetheless... Now for some strange reason I find I get a whole lot more enjoyment out of my "Rad Power City 5" E-bike she will do 28mph and climb any hill ive needed it too with ease and has a range of 45mi per charge but I went ahead and ordered a spare battery on Amazon for $280 doubling my range on it but with the regenerative braking and pedaling I have yet to need to switch to the 2nd battery because it literally charges itself anytime you're moving the pedals or use your brakes... thing is ugly as sin but man is it fun!
Maybe you can make a guard out of a Teflon cutting board to keep the chain off your frame. I'll bet if you had thinner road tires you'd get more speed and be quieter. Glad you didn't die there. Get a blinky front light .Or two
Yeah, that's what I was thinking some kind of plastic chain guard or something. And definitely going to get some obnoxious lights on this thing! that guy maybe was going to stop, but based on the eye contact and body language I saw (which the camera couldn't pick up on), I decided to bail. I've already went over the hood of a car a couple times before.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I've gone over a good myself. Size matters. If you were a lifted F350 doing 10 mpg, he would have waited. A skinny bike doing 40mph and the brain doesn't register it. Doesn't matter who's fault when you are in the ICU. Us 2 wheel guys need to think we are invisible. Because we are
Yeah buddy, i have so much fun going on adventures with my homemade vehicles.. Any dipshit can go n buy crap and most of the time the mass produced shit is exactly that unless u drop some heavy bread and that defeats the idea of a home vehicle.. i got an ebike i build from scratch before people ever seen e bikes and it does 40-45mpg depending on your skill level and understanding of aerodynamics of course but its got just over 10000miles on the clock! THATS RIGHT FOLKS OVER 10K MILES that never broke down n left me stranded, no sir i dont play.. when i do shit mr wright is kinda obligated to actually do it right cause, breaking down is bullshit 😂 but ive built gas bikes but they suck
I do not need to be tempted with this much fun for that little cost
Update: I built a 4 stroke bike with a Zeda Dawn v2 and it’s been nothing but problems, but everything’s soon getting sorted out.
Just bought this kit.. I think maybe I'll get a bigger rear sprocket for more torque, because I mainly want it so I don't have to pedal uphill. Hopefully it has enough power for steep dirt trails. That way I can enjoy downhill without the uphill
9:13 "look at this mud! If I hit this at 38mph I would go down!"
Next clip: him going 38mph.
Lol
Okay that last bit where you showed the clutch going in and out was kinda cool.
Really want to do a mid-drive conversion with the Honda GXH50. Fuel consumption is 0.91 litres an hour at 7000 rpm 1.6 kw. Should be enough power for 40 mph or more with pedaling, which is about 1/4 US gallon for 40 miles at top speed. 50:1 reduction on the cranks and 48 or 52 tooth with 32-11 cassette should get some overdrive as there is still quite a bit of power at the torque peak of 4500 which should use even less fuel (even better than 160 mpg US hehe) and also reasonably good hill gears though maybe not offroad.
I've got a Bafang BBS02B kit that I'm happy with though and very quiet save for the rattling of my bike. That would be a police magnet in the UK.
I had a Chinese motor. made to fit V frame mountain bike.all I had to watch were big lorries and such.it was good until it ceased up on me on my way to work.since the pedals work,I simply peddled it back home.I could not start it up again.spark was there,two stroke oil starvation I reckon??
nice. ive done well over 50 in a day. 1000s of miles on my phatmoto so far. gas bikes are legal on trails same as ebikes thanks to disabled advocacy groups.🍻
Ok I’m from Levittown, as soon as you said Trenton I knew. Crazy how this popped up on the algorithm
Wear a high viz vest next time. And maybe use an LED front light as a day light running light. I do that when riding my motorcycle. It helps .
As for the chain, you need a sprung chain tensioner on the slack side. (Similar to a timing belt tensioner on some car engines)
yeah day time blinkers help alot🍻
Cool with that helmet and goggles you look like a young Mike Wolf,,,, ain't it 😎 just ain't it.
Would wear a high-vis vest to stand out to car drivers. A bike has a very little profile.👍
Nice video on your ride, though the music messed up portions of it. No need to use that to make it more "interesting."
Dude you rode through my neighborhood I live by that corner of spring and prospect mad cool
160 Miles per gallon = 68.0229 Kilometers per liter
You should put a jackshaft on that thing and use the bike's gears and spockets.
✨Sir, Please upgrade to a full face motorcycle helmet. 🤠👍💜
Where is part 3 lol
I started recording some stuff, but honestly I haven't been using the bicycle very much. Been using the electric skateboards a lot more
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow well darn, we have ordinance allowing golf carts ect in my township, I was thinking this would be a great alternative lol. Cheaper too
Another fun video, great job!
Thanks John!
Love it correct me if im wrong, From a 40-mile trip is divided by .75 gallons you bought. I think it's 53.3 for a 2-stroke is IMPRESSIVE ANYWAY YOU COOK IT!
It was .25 gallons for $0.75
Oddly enough, my major concern would be whether bike tires are rated for that kind of speed and abuse (and water), as are motorcycle tires . . .
They are NOT. My tires like to cause problems since the back tire is balding and the front tire speed wobbles over 45km and the ones i have (regular mountain bike tires) are quite thin and not ideal for many conditions.
18:48: In a minitractor the similiar unit is filled with oil.
Did you put the sprocket with the teeth facing out, if so you can flip it around to help with the chain
A dozen bags of garbage for a park that size . . .
You should be able to start from rest by just twisting the throttle without pedaling. Also it should be able to handle hills without pedaling as well. I can see what you are missing is the choke switch, which is the white plastic that you didn't touch at all, and is left at the closed position all the while, that's why you're not getting enough power. You are supposed to close it when cold-starting the engine, and then open when it's already running, where the bike can be operated like a regular scooter. With the choke operational and you still have the same issues, then your centrifugal clutch is faulty.
No, its geared for top speed and efficiancy, if you cant get going, you need to buy a wheelchair. As for going uphill, it would be far easier, more like riding on the flat with the engine, and therefore absolutely no point in gearing it to start. Would you drive everywhere in 1st in your car?? That wastes power and fuel.
Pro tip, peanut butter sandwiches and pedalling yields near infinite MPG😉
You sure it's cheaper?
Gotta put a headlight on it. I can't believe you didn't get shir for crossing the trenton makes bridge I understand no problem from the Washington crossing bridge and a good thing you didn't have your phone in your other hand I don't trust drivers around here but that thing was ripping faster than I thought and the mileage is amazing. Good luck.
Yeah I just ordered a headlight end tail light yesterday for it. Thanks man
Go to your local welderhe can heat that frame up and bend it to allow the chain clearance or cut a section out and weld a piece of flatstock to the outside and your good . But don't over tighten the chain they do like to run with a tiny bit of slack.
The rear sprocket has an offset!
Close call pucker factor
Flip your sprocket around to fix chain issue
Watch for potholes, and dogs!
I appreciate that you respect the other people riding bikes and walking on the path.
Man I have one of these on my bike. Same kit of Amazon. I didn't get many miles on mine and the small chain inside the gear reduction case stretched out and there isn't a way to tighten it. I couldn't find any chain either. I did end up buying a whole new clutch gear box. It was like 30 bucks. Sense changing it I haven't rode it at all. Just collecting dust in the garage... nice video!
Hey buddy I just built my motorized bicycle I wold live to go rideing with you I'm not far from Delaware River I'm in willowgrove
Good on you for at least wearing a bright colored helmet. Still even with motorcycles with their headlights on they get cut off and hit all the time. Really sucks. Glad you didn’t crash because it definitely looked like you were about to hit him!
160 Miles per gallon??? Thats wild! Transport of the future right here!
Smart Guy! You headed this Dicey vehicle to home! You wouldn’t want Jen having to tend to you!
Replace the motor with a 79 cc
You always hear about how good a motorized bike is but you never hear about how often you have to replace the tires because of wear….or how expensive they are…
Tires are dirt cheap for these. 1.95x26. Amazon
That's the right 💯
Is a 4 stroke better?
It's quieter and doesn't smell. Really just a preference thing. Some guys like the two strokes. The four-stroke is like a mule. No Frills
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Seems like stone age vs iron age to me. The aesthetics of a 2 stroke are appealing tho but it seems so rudimentary. What motor can be modded better or more easily? Someone said a 4 stroke is hard to work on.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow mixing oil and fuel is not nice too
35 miles using 1.13 litres of fuel is excellent.Here in uk petrol is £1.60 per litre.Yours is a four stroke
It needs a small tuning. ^^
I pull a bike trailer with my 2 stroke, my son loves riding in the trailer.
Brings back memories are used to live in Jersey 20 years ago now I live in Tucson used to go to new Hope all the time nice area
I had one of those but it was a two-stroke my neighbour loved it he said it’s keeping you out of trouble which is a good thing Never got pulled over by cops everybody loved it RIP Two-stroke engine
If it isn't too late to ask, what bike did you use. I've been looking to get a new bike for my kit but nowhere sells one with a large enough hollow.
Trying to sell it for $200?.. it's most your money back and you wore it a bit...
No I plan to just hold on to it in case gas goes up to $15 a gallon
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow awe alright =( thanks.
dude you should consider a dual brake lever they work really well and hit both brakes at once
I have one on my main bike and I mean yeah it's cool and all. But I got to say on some level I prefer the control and separate brake levers. With the single lever the only way you can adjust out the braking force between front and back is with washers on the brakes. I've had a wreck where my ass end out and dumped me before
Great for car people lol
new subscriber i love ur personality keep talking lol ur Good!
Thanks man
The music is distracting
maybe "end of the world" motorised bicycle could run on just about anything cos u know gas stations out of gasoline so maybe moonshine (ethanol), wood alcohol (methanol) or wood gas one can make themselves out in wild haha
