Welcome to the channel. The channel is about fishing, boating, gold prospecting, raising quail and just doing things outdoors. I strive to include my family in my outdoor adventures to pass on the knowledge and instill in them the love for outdoors. Just like my dad did for me!

hello.dear paul.i am from Romania and i have an df 30 at 2015.Nobodi in my country can to solve my issuei have made an short videoi want to sent you the video.
That is true....it's nice cruising in the neighborhood without drawing a lot of attention. I have modded a few Doodle bug DB30's with predator engines and they are faster with more torque off the line. For people that aren't good with carb tuning the electric option is good for them.
I hover between 205 to 210 pounds. I have had myself and my 90 pound son on it at the same time and still reach 25mph on a full charge. Almost 300 pounds on it and it still moves out very well. It's definitely being speed limited by the controller.
Hi Paul, I'm retired Honda Master auto tech and though I could share a hack. Reynolds wrap sells packs of individual wraps. Put your rags under filter , then put Reynolds wrap under filter and route outside cowling and you should have near or zero mess. We used this hack on Honda cars every day
Hi Paul , great video. Wanted to give a hack for getting the fuel lines off when stuck. Move clamp back as yo did, then take your needle nose or pliers and put on top of fuel line, apply pressure as you turn up and down or side to side. Don't clamp too hard as you can damage the line.
So that helps to open/expand the hose end as you twist and pull apart. I think I am picking up what you're puttin down! Thanks for stopping by to give a quick tech tip!
@thepauldixonOC I probably didn't give a good visual as I'm limited to how many characters I can use. I'll use two comments to explain better. The fuel line is sticking to the plastic nipple on the filter. After sliding off the clamp place the jaws of pliers over the hose where the clamp was. Apply enough pressure from jaws to give SLIGHT bite into hose. Twist up and down on hose while if hose is in horizontal position or side to side if hose in vertical position while holding filter. This will will break the seized hose free from nipple. One it breaks free remove pliers and then pull off hose by hand and it should be WAY easier than force pulling it off. What can happen when force pulling off in can break reinforcement strands in-between layers of fuel hose. Hope this was more clear. Happy boating !
Thanks for posting. The aluminum shaft is a deal breaker for me. I think I'll stick to a Minn Kota and add an after market wireless controller that simply attaches th the shaft with a collar.
At first I was impressed by the tank like build of it, but the shaft should have more flex incase to hit timber and things. Yeah Minn Kota is still the better way to go!
Just a small thing that will help is before you drill that main hole, sand the molded warning and text down flat so you can get a really flush mounting surface to seal it up better.
Paul I had to replace my fuel lines when I was having a problem with my outboard. There is a small plastic sleeve inside the fuel line that deterates over time which cause issues replace your fuel lines with new ones.
I would say equivalent to a 125cc, i have had many 196cc bikes and they pull alot harder. Also, i have a 200cc w/4 speed and it doesnt even compare to it. Power is smooth and it picks up really well between 10-25mph
25mph is extremely slow. You can literally buy one of these for $399 that is 200 cc that will get you up to 55 mph. The electric bike you are looking at in this video cost $1500.
@@MountainEagle77except when you live in California. I would got one of those Chinese gas bikes however I live in the most sissy state of them all. Can’t ship small engined vehicles
Ego has a higher top end speed, smaller tires though. Less capable for offroad. Greenworks has bigger tires for offroad, slower. Maybe somebody can chime in that has driven both of them.
Not a stiff ride, but the rear needs more suspension travel. Found some shocks that might work off of Amazon. I don't think anyone is selling a direct fit replacement at this time.
What is the part number on the carb? And specs on it/what size. They dont say that either on website to buy one. How did you engine run with this installed? Thanks good video
Bought a brand new Suzuki 30 hp in 2018. I’ve done my own annual maintenance, including oil and gear oil changes every fall before winter storage. I replaced the prop in 2023 due to a spun hub. Still runs great. Very pleased with the performance.
@@thepauldixonOC really hoped to ride it for groceries or gym runs. Or just have fun on country roads. If they could add some engine sound through the speakers it would be more interesting
Thank you for sharing and I just got a Minn Kota Powerdrives as a Birthday gift. I'll mounted probably next week, on my Sun Tracker DLX 22 fishing Pontoon! 🐟🎣
When i rode mine, the battery displayed i was almost out after 16 miles. However, only one battery was drained, and the other still had a full charge. It left me a little confused. I switched their locations, and with only one battery, it would only crawl to 5 mph.
