Scary 2 Stroke Mini Bike Goes 8's and BEATS my Personal Best! FINALE 

What other builds do you want to see me take to the dragstrip! Any ideas for drag bike V2?

As a parent I just want to thank you again for keeping your channel clean, respectful, educational but most of all fun. Awesome to watch with my kids. Much respect to you and look forward to seeing your future projects. Be sure to say thank you to your family tonight, you've been brought up right and it serves you very well.

Don’t stop with the mini bike videos it’s one of your best builds in my opinion

Props to the dragstrip guy.

One of ur coolest builds, please don’t disappear it from the channel 😩

Congrats on the 8's bud. You're making me want to build a race bike now.

YES! We want to see more of this mini-bike! That guy gave you some solid advice and the fact that you listened got you some great results, congratulations!

That 8.58 pass you launched it perfect, not a hint of bog and rpm stayed flat till you got out a little bit. Make a bump behind the seat so you can launch relaxed instead of having to hold yourself on and then you can concentrate on your launch, once you get the 60’ consistent the string of mid-low 8s will follow

Vas please keep the 2 stroke content 👏🏾👏🏾💯 let's do a banshee motor drag build, I'll put in on it frfr .

Now you got her cookin! Knew it had it in that bike, just a matter of getting a clean pass. Good job getting there! 8 sec 1/8s are like a 12 sec car in quarter mile drags, that's flying!

Grats on the 8s! That is indeed fast. But try to let it run a bit more between gears :))

Best video in a while. I'd like to see a slightly larger bike with a snowmobile engine build.

As a guy who drag races motorcycles, that was pretty good. If i can, I want too give you a couple of pointers. If your going slick/wheelie bar, drive around the water box and just roll he back tire into the edge of the water. PULL FOWARD and then do a small burnout. It will clean the junk off the tire and put a little heat into it Use the right groove on the track. If the bike makes a left or right move coming off the starting line, the christmas tree is a lot softer than that concrete wall. You need more Launch RPM. No worries about looping with wheelie bars, and slicks need a little wheelspin too "get up on the tire". Just a FYI...gearing correct....thats about a high 12 low 13 second machine in the quarter mile.

Holy shit i thought it was 8 sec 1/4. That would be as fast as My hayabusa almost 😂😂

That's some Awesome stuff Vasily.Congrats on the mid-8.Thank you to your bud who filmed from the sidelines too.Good job.

Back in the late 60’s I tore around on a Bonanza mini bike with a Hodaka 100cc 2 stroke engine. I remember having to mix the fuel. It came with an expansion chamber exhaust which I typically rode with the baffle removed. Looking back I’m amazed my parents didn’t get complaints from our neighbors. It was great fun!

Still waiting for the Cafe build, probably waiting for parts. Man that's cool people give you tips.

Street tires and some nos 7s time haha 🍻🎉

I have a Yamaha blaster with a big bore it is so fast

Congrats Vasily, your determination knows no bounds!

No.... Don't retire it....please don't. Weld a tail hoop on the back of the frame to keep you from flying off. Then, figure out a better peg position. I know you can run consistent 8s on that thing. You got this brother! Great video and congrats!

You should pick up a couple of books on porting two-strokes. For instance if you raised the exhaust port height it would allow the motor to rev higher and make more horsepower, it would also reduce torque. But you’re moving less weight than the motor was originally designed for shouldn’t be an issue. Fantastic build looks like a lot of fun. Those motors have no power valve and it’s air cooled so it’s just great to learn to port.

You can improve on youre times just with the shifting, dont let go on the throtle, always full throtle while shifting!

This was a fun watch. And yeah, if your vehicle won't do a burnout with at least two full seconds of white smoke, stay out of the water. True for almost any vehicle.

Put a banshee motor on that thing would be just awesome and one of a kind build haha

OMG that looks fun! Ok - looking for the next post w your upgrades of the slick tire to heat up a soft tire in the box, wheelie bar, lower PSI.. So much fun with your friends enjoy 🎉

Great video, Congratulations!!! Your builds are high quality. You have a bright future.😎

What ever method of shifting you choose (the kill switch, clutch or no clutch), apply slight pressure to the shifter before hitting the switch, clutch etc. It will speed up shifts and make them smoother.

Getting the maximum output of a 2 stroke is tough. You have to think of the clutch as your throttle. Just before you get the green light you need to rev the engine. Get the rpm up so that you are in a better spot on the torque curve. Then it's all about the clutch. You can't rush it, especially on asphalt with a knobby tire. You need to let it out slowly and smoothly. If the bike tries to spin out on you then you need to ease back on the clutch but NOT the throttle. It's a tough dance to learn but it's what makes 2 strokes so much fun. Love the build by the way!!

It was a little hard to see how you were shifting, but here is a little trick just in case. After launching don't use the clutch. Put pressure on the shifter then let off throttle just a little. Of course this is all done very quickly. Maybe on drag bike V2, put an air cylinder on the shifter connected to a button that also cuts the ignition, for a super quick shift.

Congratulations on making it into the 8's. I was going to ask why you weren't lining up in the groove. But you got it figured out! Great you shared that info with on your video as well. We all start somewhere and get better with seat time. Look forward to whatever you build next. Stay safe & enjoy most of all. ✌

8.5 sec! SWEET!!! That fast, you need more protection gear on. Wreck and it wouldn't be pretty. KUDOS!! My grandson 12 and younger are racing quads! It's insanely AWESOME!

So pumped for you, way to go. 🇺🇸

They sell big bore kits for these. lol... you could make it more spicy.. I would change the sprocket gearing, so you can still start in first and have one more high gear at the end of the track. You can shave a lot of time on your take off-- you need to anticipate the light a little better and let out on the clutch earlier... edit: actually you were getting much better starts by the end

My home track and has been my entire life. One of my favorite places to be. Brainerd optimist drag strip hold a very very special place in my heart so thank you for the Post. BTW that was Mr. Steve Longley, AKA former owner of the track, he's a really good guy. Funny story about him is back in the day and he is main bracket race car broke and his in the finals, so he asked the man he was up against if he would be up to letting him race in the finals using his pit scooter, his opponent agreed but quickly regretted it. From that moment on Steve said it was a lot cheaper to race it rather than his race car and one just about every bracket race with a 50cc scooter for that season. The catch was next year there is a strict girl against that given by NHRA which I have to admit I agreed with which was two wheels were not allowed to race against four wheels with that much weight of a weight difference.

Move the pegs as far back on the frame as possible and either get a pingel shifter for it or move the shifter to thw rear pegs and add a long shift rod that way your feet will be behind you adding weight for traction,your body can get lower for less drag and you'll be planted on the bike as long as you can keep your feet planted on the pegs... Also,pick a tire line and stay in it as your rear tire loses bite every time you get out of the groove...

That thing is awesome. Nice job dude. Killed it.

That was pretty awesome. It's all in the launch. I think a tach and shift light would help a lot with consistency and testing. Sounds like you're short shifting until 5th gear where 2 strokes have such peaky high end power bands you might go a lot quicker letting each great rev out. Just my thoughts. Looks like a lot of fun

it's dark and your nailing it down the strip. yeh boi. i am very envious

Old timer gave you good advice. I suggest that you get to know him better. Good friends are hard to find and good friends with good advice are almost unheard of.

@vasily builds When you kick start the bike keep you foot on the kick start lever. It'll save your ankle if you ever get kick back

Awesome job. You could see how well you hooked up on your 8:58 run. So little wheel spin.

Done 8. 3 in a car and I was impressed and scared you are mad kid more power to you!

Don't stop with the mini bike I want you to make it faster I love this mini bike series I love that many bike you need to try to find a way to make it faster and quicker and beat your time.

Build a seat hump. Then you need to launch at your set rpm your tire can hold. Do not rev it up into the launch when you dump the clutch. Hold it at a consistent rpm and work the clutch after you launch. Looks like a blast!! Keep on making it faster.

You are crazy🤣🤣70+mph in that minibike ,God bless you an keep you from no harm,good job💪💪💪💪💪💪

Congrats on the 8. You were flying.Great video, thanks for sharing.

Cool bike man good to see you keeping the 2 stroke scene alive. If I could offer some advice that will easily put you where you wanna be,stop throttling thru the gears. The only time you hit wide open throttle is on take off after that you clutch and bang thru the gears leaving it wide open. It takes a little practice but keeps you in the pipe and does away with any and all throttle lag. It will not hurt anything it will be a continuous pull and will change everything. Good luck bro.

That's a bad ass little bike! Don't give up. You seem to be a natural at it. You just need more practice and way better tires.

I Would Definitely Like To See More Of This Mini Bike

I would love to see the shifter kart at the drag strip too, my favorite build of yours

cant wait because of you me and my friends are building one so keep making videos

I used to drag race a Yamaha 650, KZ 1000, and a GSX 1100. Your runs on that mini was so much cooler.

Yeah man. You hit your goal with it. You’ve got bigger and better projects going on right now. No need to look back brother 👍🏼

Good for you V. We'll done.

Need more riding vids my dude. Seems like you always working then riding. Havent seen you ride a go kart in a minute

I’d love to see more. I like drag racing and love mini bikes and this is the best of both worlds.

Good job man, ..looks fun. You don't leave on the green, you time your leave on the last yellow...

Looking forward to drag bike 2.0 👍

Good on you for having a go, cheers from OZ.

Try clearing the motor out before staging. Two strokes like to load up with fuel even when idling for a short time.

Your video makes me miss my drag bike. Nice job on the passes.

your runs looked pretty dailed in i think it was all about your launch an the 60 foot that makes or breaks it for ya.. congrats on the 8s good stuff..

That thing moves👍 imagine a small frame with your CR500R motor in it at the drag strip....😜✌

Excellent video! Congratulations on your accomplishments!

We race mini bikes here in the 1/4 mile and try using a scooter front tire much more rotational mass and helps with wheels to keep the tire done

If you're starting off in second gear you need a lot higher final gear ratio so you can start in first without spinning and that will give you another gear on the top

congratulations vas. that must make it your most successful build yet!

stay out of the water unless you have a slick and heat it..

10:06 Race Face Congrats! and to think I used to chase the low teens!

That’s a fast mini bike.You did a great job.

That's contagiously sick FUN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In 1978 I built a Bonanza minibike with a late 40s early 50s 230 cc Villiers 2 stroke single with a 2 speed AJS transmission, the thing would do about 80 mph and get there in a blink of an eye, barely any brakes, dumb but really fun

With the slick tire you should do a quick dry hop burnout, then pull it up and run it.

I figured it would crank out a mid 8 with the wheelie bars, gearing and slick. Well done! Dialed in good and alcohol 7's.

A front fairing to direct the air will help tremendously

Avoiding the water box with treaded tires was very good advice, I kept saying it out loud until the guy told you about it. Another good tip that will help your reaction time and 60' as well: start when you see the last amber instead of waiting for the green light. It sounds counterintuitive, but it works because the interval between the last amber and the green is half a second, and it can actually take you longer to start moving than that. My brother raced his street bikes at our local strip for many years, and he passed this tip along to me; more than a few times I've "treed" and thoroughly pissed off guys with faster cars because of it.

Really enjoy the build sir. You should add a jr slick to the rear and play with gearing next.

Hey man I've been watching you for quite a while I'm amazed at what you build I really am you're a very gifted very smart. I definitely enjoy watching what you come up with next I got to give you that ...that little bikes are rocket ship!!!! Awesome job man

You should ride that thing to Sturgis SD next week. Or get a buddy to ride on the back and take it to Aspen CO in the winter.

This is Awsome! Definitely a cool build. If your. Looking to get a little more time you could play with the rear tire size diameter if you feel the gearing is correct! Cool build

Your fast ET run was with a much better start from the line. You need a little more RPM at the start, let the wheelie bar work for you. And you are leaving late when you see solid green. Just barely light that second bulb and leave on the last yellow. Your 60 foot will get much better and so will your ET. Awesome progress with that little beast and you are getting better at driving it. Kudos for taking the advice of others at the track. Also with the racing slick you might try a little water burnout before staging.

looks like fun. Good job bro !

With all this new drag strip time under your belt I'd love to see what 2.0 looks like... 🤔

I’m a drag racing fan so I’m loving the drag bike content. It would be cool to see what the mower can do when you get the bugs worked out.

Congratulations!!! It Sounds SO GOOD 🔥🔥🔥

I’m blown away that you’re going 74mph on a freaking mini bike! That’s one thing on a full sized bike but a completely different thing on something that small! You could fit that thing in a trunk! I’d really have to work up to that, haha.

Way to send it! It must be a scary ride...Love the little blaster minibike it has way more potential really for cheap....

Very important, listen to your elders! Good luck with your bike!🤞 Be careful!🙏

Awesome job you did on that

Hi, you can also try narrow smoother tire in front. I love your videos and greets from the Czech Republic.

Hold down on the shifter when you launch it will auto shift when rpm is right

I've got a tip for you. Stop backing off on the throttle when you shift. That's not the way. You keep it pinned, you don't touch the clutch, you shift when the engine hits it's maximum horsepower. At that point the load on the transmission gets light because the power curve is actually starting to go down. You'll be shocked at how much better that works.

More mini bike. Watching your builds rip is always fun I think you can get it in the sevens

You should put something behind the seat to keep you planted also leave after the third light

Keep up the good work I love your builds

A full fairing mini pocket bike with a wheelie bar would be cool, probably not as fast but cool as $hit, and scary. A mini going +70mph GD!

You be careful good buddy 👍 please 🙏 god bless you my friend 🙏.. you had me on the edge of my seat it looks fun but dangerous take care of yourself buddy

I love the sound ... I'm an RD 350 fan in the quarter mile mine ran 12/50s... 11,000 rpm in the bleach box...you're as crazy as I was 40 years ago .... it was a full blown drag bike ...🤣🤣🤣

Congratulations on your pass. I think maybe reposition the pegs if possible and maybe put like a piece of cushion at the back of the seat to hold you in place better or maybe just change the seat entirely. Hope this idea can help. However this is my second time watching your video and I agree with other subs to keep your bike on the channel. It's really cool and amazing to see how fast that little thing went. Props to you brother. I wouldn't have the courage. Lol. Again congrats and hope to see more. In the mean time I'll go down the list to catch up on the previous vids. God bless you brother.
