You painted the bike frame red then white, why?

These builds make me want to build something this size

one is chevy orange and one is white

you really should build a mini bike they are fun, they don't have to be fast to be fun but they can be fast..... lol

Looks like a mini biker gang is about to start in your neighborhood, watch out for those Karens out there.

It actually works only hits 8psi at high rpm but usually 6 though midrange

The bov didn't work, it was just leaking air out I had to take it off

fastivab6tg25mr · « **Reply #72 on:** June 23, 2025, 10:40:34 AM »

Thats bad ass! Any videos of how it sounds?

random-strike · « **Reply #73 on:** June 23, 2025, 01:34:38 PM »

the carb really kills the sound out of the turbo but you can hear it a little bit, and a little bit out of the exhaust but nothing really cool.

the "high temp grease" doesn't seem to work for long term, after a while of riding it gets too hot and one of the fins on the compressor or exhaust wheel hits the housing...

im not sure what else i could try to put in it, maybe gear oil? something that can stand the heat.

this turbo also might be a shit one, i guess A LOT of these turbos are bad out of the box. they're like old school CHY NA turbos.

i bought another one same exact one, and might just return this one if the new one doesn't have any problems.

im also thinking about building a built stroker motor that can rev higher and create more exhasut to spin the turbo.

building a motor like these is really cheap honestly probably less than $500 to have a built motor

random-strike · « **Reply #74 on:** June 23, 2025, 06:11:38 PM »

i took the grease out and put in some gear oil and it works better, turbo spins easier and you can hear it now more.

its just a wierd thing because sometimes it'll go up to 8psi sometimes i can't get it to go over 4, not sure. i think maybe this turbo just doesn't work right

i guess we'll see how the new one works not sure.

What about using a little standalone sump and pump like a chainsaw bar oiler that runs off the crank. You could use a cheap harley oil cooler as the sump/cooler

random-strike · « **Reply #76 on:** June 24, 2025, 12:56:33 PM »

yeah ive seen people that do that but its kinda a PITA. you have to add a battery too with a little electric pump is what most ppl seem to do.

never thought about a manual pump

it seems like the gear oil is working pretty well

fastivab6tg25mr · « **Reply #77 on:** June 24, 2025, 01:40:13 PM »

Or something like this. Weld a socket on the end of the shaft coupler and put it on the crank bolt.

I took the vm22 (one size bigger carb) oh the go kart and put it on the mini bike and it fucking rips! Lol

I guess the carb was too small. It builds over 10psi just free revving on the stand

I haven't fully tested yet, but it actually rips now lol

Man I want to build something like this, but in my area too many people and they complain if I too much fun building anything.

I guess 2 am rippers are in order!!!

random-strike · « **Reply #82 on:** November 12, 2025, 01:39:51 PM »

the governor arm fell into the case and rear tire got a puncture and the tires were on backorder for months

they finally are available again, so i thought i'd build a pure chinese "built" motor

212 honda gx200 clone
big cam
flat top piston
billet rod
10k rpm flywheel
valve springs & pushrods

should be about 14hp.

im working with the jetting

real first start video. i used A LOT of assembly lube so it wouldn't start easy haha

random-strike · « **Reply #84 on:** November 12, 2025, 02:06:31 PM »

im going to build another one and try to resell it on ebay or whatever

the motors are $120 shipped now, and if you buy all chinese parts they are about $150 shipped.

so if i sold for $500 it'd be kinda fun

the tillison performance motors are all way over $1000

That's bad ass. 14hp would be crazy fast on that little thing.

yah, the stock clone motors rev to about 5000rpm iirc

this one revs way higher, i think upper 8k.

i need to regear. once it hits the power band i'm going way too fucking fast lol its barely hitting power and i'm already going about 45mph
