Hey I just bought this bike! It's pre-order til there shipment in end of may. Do you have any recommendations on after market parts? I plan to ride it with my wife on it too every now and again. I ordered the bracket and turn signals after watching your other video!!
@SmallEngineVelocity ur not the only one I do that too. I use RU-vid as a search engine n not as normal people does. So on certain days I would just look for specific things here n watch many video of the same thing from different people. I found ur channel because of the Lifan bikes. Particularly the KP200. In fact it was u that inspired me to get the Lycan. I made the purchase after I saw someone else buys it beside u. Wanted to b sure that it was real n the other person had a more in-depth ways how he unboxed his... although u both did a great job.
@SmallEngineVelocity so when someone that I’ve searched a vid that I watched posted a new vid, RU-vid always posts these vids on my main home page. I use a smartphone for that lol. Sometimes they r things I already know which I just watched n ignore, 90% of times. Then there r certain times there is a specific thing I’m looking for, like this specific bike in-depth look. Although I have a similar version but this is their current model after the scooter which I own. Also I have a swing arm issue even though mine stills works but I realized they r made different. Urs particularly is much better n is real steel. Mine can’t b welded n partly breaks too easily which isn’t a big deal on overall performance but it bothers me every time I look at it.
@@SmallEngineVelocity so true you and Moto Miles seem to be the only ones honestly breaking down the pros and cons of the bike.I love tinkering with my bikes I have a Ruckus and Lifan .I sold my X22 but actually miss it now.
Small Engine Velocity nope. Gates is Gates. Kevlar is something else. Gates are the top 1st. Over the years I’ve used GY6 150cc as daily commutes, one yr I had a scooter with 12,000 miles ride on it n went to a long history of things being changed in there. The belt was one of the chapter it took me awhile to master n after that I only trust gates n only use gates. I even change stock Kevlar n BANDOO for Gates.
Do you have a recommendation of where I can get standard motorcycle tires (rounded, no edge) for this bike? Also, i know a couple other people also asked.. but it would be cool if you could do a tire changing video and an oil changing video (because this is a common bike among begginers)
I thought this was a cool bike when I saw it but I bought the maddog but now I’m ready for this one next summer so thank u for this video you’re the first
1. Report it to venom 2. Don’t ride it and check the bolts , please don’t get hurt - these things come on a ship from China so something may be loosened and could hurt you! If you have a socket set out one on each bolt near the motor and mount and make sure they are tight.
Small Engine Velocity make sure the weeping hole is not blocked n warm it up to the correct cooling temperature n watch the needle n hear the fan to do ur judgment. It it stays 1 bar below half while the fan is on n when u ride the air coming to the radiator still keeps it at the same spot as the fan would, it will last over 2000 miles. The only thing that can go wrong is electrical stuffs like if it dies instantly it’s ur ignition coil going bad or if it starts to ride slow it’s ur CDI going bad. Mine now has 7000 miles during a yr of use n most of the times it’s been sitting instead of riding base on having many choices of commutes but these things r built to last.
Small Engine Velocity remove the swing arm. Since this type of bike doesn’t have a double stand u will have to use something to level it n to lift up the tire from the ground. The nut size is 21mm. Same as the nut from ur variator clutch. Although I wouldn’t advice u to use impact wrench to remove the nut. Brace the tire with a hammer before completely removing the swing arm. The hammer will stay in between underneath n use a big 1/2 inch 21mm socket. Preferably a ft lbs torque wrench because u get more power with it n when u put it back the correct force is 94ft Lbs tightened.
bryon witmen use a cruiser motorcycle stand or... a car stand with 2 people supporting it from either side. This X22GT is a toy lmao. It gave u the impression of a sport bike with a scooter engine so technically if u can work around a scooter to stand it up u will b able to do the same to this toy.
I'm curious about what looks to be projector headlights. What's the beam pattern look like? Are they swappable bulbs that could potentially swapped for an HID set?
Venom motorsports please send small engine velocity the 2019 x22r to do a unboxing, set up, first ride, deep dive, mods. His videos are amazing . I would send them all the new stuff to test out. Well some new product's
I have two questions, 1 I have a problem with speedometer not working as far speed and miles, 2 brake light not working, only had the falcon250cc for a week,but do love your videos and keep them coming. H.Robertson
Buying this exact bike in march as long as its in stock. I don't have a biker license yet but in did have an 800cc intruder and i never took it out of 1st due to feeling to uncomfortable with clutch shifting. I think this would be perfect. i have a yume M11H that goes around 60mph but the range isnt the best and you stand on it lol.
clutch shifting is easy, its just like whenm you make belief on a regular bike when your a kid, if rode a bicycle and can read rpm is easy I learned in 5 mintes and i am a firt time rider at 48, trust me dont buy this garbage..get you r real bike
@7:32 The ground point. My battery negative battery terminal is fine and the other that connects to the fuse is fine but the other one sheared off at the other end. I don’t know what/where it was attached. Please assist
I'm going to buy myself one Im going to buy the full package racing carb, carbon fiber exhaust ect racing cdi and spark plug what top speed would that get me to on this bike? Also can I put a 300cc big bore kit in it?
Mine turns on and then after 10 seconds of giving it has it dies. Any clues ? Also coolant is leaking. Not sure if it's a gasket or a loose hose. I just got this bike a few days ago.
How does one bypass the kickstand mine keeps acting up to wear I got to wiggle the wire to get the bike to have power ? And any idea on Speedometer not working bike has only 13 miles?
Not that bad want to tackle the devils tail or something, but couldn’t you put a better performance scooter tire on the rear? I remember back in the day riding my friends tmax and that was something special just I think to overpriced for the American not that it wasn’t worth it, just we Americans don’t look at scooters the same way, even bad assed ones unless you traveled abroad and had experience with them.
Hey how are doing ceaser I have had my eye on this bike for awhile the only thing I don't like about this bike is the back tire and back rim I rather have the back tire and rim same size as the front are there any upgrade for this its jus plum ugly and also nice video
@@SmallEngineVelocity it means it is similar to a car tire, some people use car tires on the rear because they are cheaper and last longer, I don't know the origin of the term darkside but there is a lot of info out there, kind of sketchy to do it and that tire does not look to be too safe in the corners.
Small Engine Velocity top speed is 77mph. More often on cold morning after warm up u will get it around 66mph. But u really have to ride it to get it to 70 n above. My daily commute involve 22 miles at 4:50 AM n doing the same route which is highway route at 2:00PM. In the morning the highest I ever get is around 70MPH. More often 69MPH like some kind of curse lol. On downhill at the same time in the morning I get it at 75 MPH but in the afternoon I get flat 73 MPH, downhill 82 mph n when I get enough elevations I once saw my odometer says 77 mph on flat surface. But u have to b hardcore to do 30 minutes with real highway speed like 22 miles n up to achieve that goal.
