yeah this video is outdated. I've stopped making videos because i just dont have the equipment to make videos. The silencer is quieter than straight pipe but louder than a stock muffler in short summary.
Just a tip to help you, but the best way that I have found to clean the seat is to use the cut off tip of a q tip. Put it in a drill chuck. Put just a dab of car polish. Not compound, but polish. Whirl that q tip down on that seat for a minute or so. It will shine it good.
I still have the mower to this day. It leaks a little because of the seat and the sealing isn't all that great. Runs good though. i have to put a shutoff valve before the carburetor when ever i turn the engine off or it will flood the engine with gas.
absolutely! not the fastest thing. really dangerous for on the roads here. people drive 15 mph over the speed limit. itll be only used for on the pastures and dirt roads in between.
i still have this one and mow around my camper with it. starts on the third pull most times. the seal on the needle for the float doesnt seal so it will leak fuel eventually. it has a shut off valve in the fuel line to prevent flooding the engine when the engine is turned off.
it does a solid 40 easily. Good all around cruiser for the park in Portland or around town. Love using this for around here. just makes sense to use something small and practical for just going to the mailbox distances.
I have one like that I bought from Walmart in the 80s Didn’t get used much and sat for over fifteen years under a shed. I got it running about four years ago,ran great and the engine stop cable broke. I am having a problem finding the cable as the model number of the mower 2254?X92C does not show up in any parts searches. The steel cable is about 38” and the outer conduit is about 42” and it has a Z bend at the engine end and a T at the operator end.
Eh, I don’t know about “they would like to have it again” part. I have a few newer mowers the same size that are way lighter and easier to push around or to be picked up into a bed of a truck. This is definitely a solid piece of machinery and it’s not going away any time soon. But if I’m going to be mowing up and down hills, I would like to have something that has self propelled.
Oh No! that's too bad. man, those things are a fortune now. just 200-300 for just a roller with bad paint. but if you truly love those minibikes, it may be worth it to get and rebuild one. Thanks for Watching!
GTC Torque Converters. we bought it without the front driver because we knew we were going to change it to a Tork-Zilla later on. i dont remember the price but it was around $100. plus another 80 for the Super Driver.
I believe it’s the other way around. Further in is more restrictive and less noise. To be honest. I don’t think it makes a difference. It probably does, but not going to notice it on something as small as a 99cc engine.
We flatten the tires to barely anything in them at all afterwards. Made a big difference. I wonder if there’s a way to lock the diff on these hydro-matics
Awesome! Glad to see people still watching the video. We’re about to get started on a few minis for this years Portland. Man, it felt like yesterday we were just there.
I love my Trailmaster MB-200, but if this is what you like, that's all that matters. Having fun is the bottom line. When you get older, I think you'll prefer the full suspension bikes more. Lol
I still have mine but hardly ride it much anymore. Planning on putting a real tank on it. I Like the Trailmaster but I like the small wheeled minibikes better.
Man I love you're videos, I've been out tearing around the fields today here in Missouri. How many bikes do you have? Looks like a lot. Have you checked out the Buscadero 140? I know its crossing the line between mini bike and motorcycle, but the constant problems with cvts locking up and no brakes unless you buy an expensive kit....GPS sucks, their "help" videos are a joke.
I don’t use GPS products for my stuff. No, I don’t know of anything for Buscadero 140. We are not near any events where we live. It takes usually 3 hours or more to get to a decent event that’s MiniBike related. We’ve been busy not freezing after this blizzard has gone by. This video was just the start of it and it has gotten worse. More ice than snow. Today was the last cold day and tomorrow will rise into the 50s it looks like. Woo hoo! I own just 2 running and driving bikes but I have an assortment of frames and engines. Just as the same here on the farm. Theres 4 in total running and driving but there’s about I believe 12 all together in frames and spare engines. Just collecting over time and good deals on FB marketplace or Craigslist. I appreciate that you watch my videos. Thanks for watching!
I like the larger fenders for looks and actually keeping me clean from water and mud. They’re not going to stay black forever. It’s just no point of painting them right now for them to get covered in mud or the bike gets dropped and damaged. Have fun with the way it is now.
I’m on my third one. First one was $400 from tractor supply about 10 years ago. Sold it to my sone for his son. Found a second one and sold it to my son. Had a hard time finding one but found like the last one on Amazon. Now with inflation $850 with free shipping. Yeah. Ok. Other Coleman bikes were $500 with $350 shipping. So there you have it. But yeah we love em. Good geometry. Comfortable. My last one I put on smaller softer rubber grips. The MX foot pegs. A air filter adapter with a 90 degree 2.5” silicone elbow the big red oversize air filter tucks it in nicely to the frame. Looks cool. Sounds a little deeper throatier. Peppier too. This last one was stripped. I had to buy the front and rear racks separately.
Yes we did. Ombwarehouse didn’t have their torkzillas in stock a year ago when we mass order a bunch of things for future projects. So, instead we got juggernauts. Yes, there’s a difference. The engagement on the belt is really the big difference that stands out. Torkzillas have a much lower engagement where they’re great for cruising setups and slower speeds. Where Juggs are a higher engagement and require a lot more rpm’s to get the bike to move. That’s good for drag racing and straight line speed. Not the intent of this build.
@@ElijahMiniBikes Interesting. Both claim 2500 rpm engagement. Fatbuddycat compared the two side by side and thought the springs in the TZ were lighter but didn’t weigh the roller assemblies. The “bells” are also shaped slightly different which could affect shifting rates Great design though, way better than a Comet style 30. I’d like to see some more development and options for tuning them. I haven’t tried a Juggernaut with tall sprocket ratios, but I’d be interested in seeing how well it works for more of a cruising setup.
My guess it would fit the stock ghosts intake but it would be extremely restrictive with a opening meant for for 22mm carbs and this is a 26mm carburetor. I removed everything from the ghosts stock set up for the carburetor and added what came with the Nibbi 26 as a kit.
I actually don’t know, I would have to go by the shop tomorrow and look at the box for exact measurements. I was just tasked and given a box of parts to hop up the performance of the bike for the guy. I do know it’s a RacerProQuip part for a Predator 224 but also works in GX200 clone engines as well.
