In today’s episode of DIY Willy, I install a new 6.6 Hp 224cc Max Performance Predator engine in the Mega Moto minibike. There was nothing wrong with the original Gasbike 79cc version but it always a good time to try something else….Right? This engine claims to have 10% more torque and just a hint of additional HP over the 212 version. So let’s find out how much the 10% improves the performance in the Mega Moto frame. I intend to leave the engine all stock as it came out of the box for now but who knows what the future might hold for it only time will tell. Also I try a centrifugal clutch for the first time on this build and I can definitely see the differences between the torque converter and the centrifugal clutches when riding.
So please come back and check out the progress on this fun Mega Moto minibike build.

@fatbuddycat 2 года назад

That's a bit of a torque upgrade!

@DIYWilly 2 года назад

WAY more torque but with the governor left in its still as fun to ride as the smaller 79cc version. So far it doesn't seem to be a wheelie monster at least for now....LOL..

@jamesvalencia1508 Год назад

Hey how did you get yours not to be a wheelie monster? I just put my 224cc in my mm80 and i can’t keep it on the ground. Unreal amount of torque.

@DIYWilly Год назад

I have a smaller rear sprocket. It will loose some torque but will improve top end. If I remember correctly it’s a 54t sprocket. Thanks for watching!

@DIYWilly 2 года назад

Thanks yes I’m getting close. I will share what I find. Just wish I didn’t need to look. Not worried to much all the parts are replaceable. I believe I need to shim the crank at the side cover. There appears to excessive end play. That might tighten it up some.

hi willy i wish i remember who said went you start your 224 put hands over ears you dont want to hear this noise that how i roll been beat on it for 2 years just got moto 80 frame time too install 224 beating continue.

Well it does fit pretty nice and will pull hard while accelerating. So many videos now on the best mods for the 224. Just make sure to upgrade the brakes with that 225! Have fun! Be careful and Thanks for watching!!

@broombroom6920 8 месяцев назад

so i have a 2016 mm80 and im looking into getting a 224 for it. is it 100% that a 224 will fit in that frame? i want to order a 224 but dont want to have to relocate the tank. help

@DIYWilly 8 месяцев назад

Hello broombroom, yes it will go but it’s tight. You will need to bring some from the front oil drain plug and drill new mounting holes for the engine. The MM80 holes are different. As you saw in my video it is possible. By grinding the front oil drain bolt it will allow you to move the engine as far forward as possible. Hope this helps… Let me know how it turns out. You will definitely like the difference in power. Be safe!! Thanks for watching!!!

I notice mine shakes a hell of a lot too, Id like to find a way to support it better. Could just be needing to go through its cycles. I only have an hour or two on mine.

@DIYWilly 3 месяца назад

Hello Eric, Some people have found that the flywheel is not torqued properly and can be a cause of the vibrations. I feel though that it’s caused by the stroke this engine has. I welded 3ea 1”x1/8” flat bar under the engine plate to help stiffen the frame. It definitely helped tame the beast. I have a video showing how I did it. You should check it out. Thanks for watching!!

@MrRogrod1 Год назад

What did you find to be the problem with your 224 ? Thanks

@DIYWilly Год назад

There really wasn’t anything that stood out as “That’s the problem”. I think the biggest issue was crank shaft end plan which I fixed with shims at the side cover. I didn’t measure it but install 1 thick one and 1 thin one and that seemed to get it close enough for me. I believe that the extra stroke on the crank shaft contributes to the vibration at mid range power. The vibration goes away as the rpm’s increase. I would love to get the whole rotating assembly balanced. There some diy videos out there and also some professional companies to do it but I’m fine with it. Great comment!! Thanks again for watching!!! 👍
