Hi guys, my name is Clay. This is my first ever RU-vid video! I plan on making some dirtbike and off road videos. Please like and subscribe to help me grow and make more cool videos for you!
It's like the universe wants me to build one of these! I'm getting a welding machine for christmas, I have an old weed eater sst25 engine and I can wait until a bike wheel kick scooter is available at my local thrift shop! Thank you for the inspiration dude, if I ever go through with this I'll credit you in my video 😁
Thank you, I got very lucky with this build. The chance that the sprockets would match up with the power of the weed eater was slim but worked out well.
Wow! I did this exact thing with the same scooter except I used a 29cc Husqvarna engine from a weed eater, I put the fuel tank where the batteries where and ran the kill switch and the throttle cable up to the handle and bolted the motor on using scrap metal. I also rebuilt the carb and put a oversized air filter on but seeing how fast yours is, its probably 3 times faster than mine! I re painted the whole thing blue and black and put a new tire in the back with good treads and overbuilt it way too much but it still rattles itself apart! im also deciding on making a youtube vid about it but I still gotta get that thing out!
I have that Scoot as well, But I've used Honda GX35 as my Engine choice. Damn I'm so happy with it. and well I also customized the Scoot frame myself, I installed a Hydraulic Shock Absorbers at the Front Wheel, and Spring shock Absorber at the Middle Place of the Scoot that connects the Engine So it'll just bounce everytime i go on Bumps lol I run 60kph atleast with GX35 Honda
Theres no way your doing 50mph on that long term if at all. You would smoke the clutch after a mile at that speed. I know from personal experience. I put a 27cc craftsman weedeater MTD motor on a huffy. Smoked the clutch just going around the block and it only went 15mph. So i put a 50cc chonda gx50 clone on it with a gearbox reducer and get about 35mph. Id guess your actually getting around 15mph out of that if you weigh around 150lbs.
@@garyshrum4353haha right?! Youd need a 100cc 2 stroke at the minimum to do 50. Not to mention the speed wobbles from lack of a steering damper and the lack of suspension would make you wipe out if you weren't on a perfectly smooth surface.
I put a racing pocket bike engine on a scooter exactly like that one. Scary as f#ck. Lol. 30mph roll on wheelies. Super sketchy . Very first test ride I crashed the hell out of it. Easy fix then out to crash again. Total death trap. Love it.
I'm about to do the same thing with what looks like the same exact scooter. lol. we pulled the electric motor off and threw it on a bike for a school project, and I got the rest of the scooter parts.
Make a how to cause I have a weed eater and scooter just need a how to lol gas prices are getting crazy In Cali and my job only 12 miles 6 going 6 coming
Have you actually measured how fast you're going? It looks like you're going about 20 mph. But I would still like to know what is the actual top speed, how much gas did you put into it and how long does the gas last you for? I would love to modify my scooter like this so I can go to work in a scooter like yours instead of driving.
Going to pick my first one up today, a real Goped for $100, Id be happy if I could get 50 mph outta it lol ; I build custom minibikes as a hobby so I figured let’s dabble with a goped
