That is way too fast for these old bones to be going.. 😮😮

Best way to do it is get some loc-tight & put a drop in the keyway on the crank shaft, let it dry really good (about 45 min to 1 Hr) & then slide your magnet on, it will stay in place & you'll still be able to remove the woodruff key in the future if you need to.. 👍👍

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes ok thank you I got the bike running yesterday after I tried your method I was watching videos and all I could find was how to take it appart

If you have checked the Magneto with an OHM Meter & it's making power & power is flowing to the CDI but not coming out ( or going through), check the plug wire it's self & the boot to make sure the wire isn't broke inside.. There is also a small chance the CDI could be faulty inside. 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂

👍👍

I'm glad one of my videos helped you solve a problem.. 👍👍That's what makes doing this worth the while. I hope you can get out & enjoy riding your bike.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes yeah thanks, it’s a old 2001 kx65 I’m fixing to resell.

I agree. 👍👍 A bikes fenders used to be so strong you could have a friend sit on them to give them a ride home.. Those were the days.

I'll be more than happy to; I should have some time toward the end of this week so keep an eye out for it. 👀👀

I think they may have moved to E-Bay with a store there, I'll look into it & let you know.

we'll have to do that.. 👍👍

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes If you do, say howdy to "lawn mower man", big guy with a bunch of lawn equipment.

Phantom engines are pretty good. 👍👍 But I will have to admit, I've probably used every brand & style over the years & you'll always run across a bad one in any brand if you use enough of them.. I'd say give it a try & if you don't think it runs the way it should contact the dealer you bought it from & exchange it, most dealers will work with you as long as it's within the 30 day purchase period.. No need to over think it, get one, get it on your bike & get out & enjoy some riding.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

I thought the same thing.👍👍

You should be able to go straight to the distributor TKOMOTO,com

I'm sorry 😪😪 I didn't see your message until today.. If you still need some help, I'll be more than happy to help you with any questions you may have if I can.

Different wheels have different spoke sizes. That's not something that one size fits all. Me personally, I take them to the bike shop & let them handle it while I'm working on the bike itself, that way the whole job is done correctly the first time & everybody wins.

It's a Huffy Nelusso

I'm glad this helped you with your build. 🙏🙏

If you are wanting to run the standard sprocket that comes with your kit you will have to bore out the center hole. If you purchase the CNC Hub & sprocket you won't have to bore out the center hole, that type already has the larger hole.

It could be either one causing a no spark situation. Also if you have the kill button hooked up start by disconnecting it, I have seen them short out & not let the spark plug spark. No the cable is not wrapped around the seat .

The engine mount just allows you to mount the engine to the bigger frame tube. I'm not sure what you're asking about the chain tensioner, but usually the first step is to shorten the chain to the proper length you need (Usually they give you more length than you need so you have to remove a few links) after you shorten the chain then you can install the tensioner. If you don't shorten the chain, no matter where you place the tensioner the chain will have way too much slack

Sorry to hear this bike stressed you out so bad on your build 😢Other than having to get the front engine mount adapter for the fat tube ( I used a welded mount myself) the rest of the build went pretty normal I thought. Hopefully now that you went through all that trouble, you'll finally get to enjoy it, they do ride nice.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

If you're asking if you can put a drop or two of oil on, you're throttle assembly plastic where the cable rides the answer is yes. I definitely put a couple drops where the cable rides in the plastic, I also put a couple drops on my throttle & clutch cable & let it run down the inside of the cables before I hook them up, I say anything that rides of slides repetitively a couple drops of oil never hurts.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

Nice to see your still out there. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂👍👍

🤣🤣 If it was, I wouldn't have been anywhere near it. 😂😂

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes I can’t wait to get my bike out…it’s been so nice..you motivated me to get out there! Wish I had someone to ride with like you and your buddies. A lot going on where you live. Safe riding!

@@remedythis-dreamworld We're just like you, we don't always have time to get together for a ride, so we'll get out & ride by ourselves too.. I know I ride a lot more by myself than with others.. The main thing is to get out & enjoy the bike you worked so hard on when you can.. 👍👍

They got more money for Pillsbury I'll let you know when it starts coming down.

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes Super, hopefully there will be some documentation of the event.

I don't want to tell you incorrectly, so I'll share the video with the company name in the video.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIqlYmmpYrV9iqMsi=x4tJ44Rs38m-BqMN

Thanks for watching 🙏🙏

Thanks for watching 🙏🙏

That engine is not at a bad angle, I prefer the carb. bowl to sit level when the bike is sitting on the ground, this bike probably had too much chain slack at one time is the main reason the chain jammed up. I'm just not a big fan of those slide in chain guides anyway, I'd rather remove a little material & still have plenty of room in the gear and actuator area.. it's just my personal choice..

Bought one off someone myself but don’t have the full manual on what I gotta look for and what to do

Do I have to have the clutch held down at all times? How did you get off it and have it still running? I’m new to owning one

I understand what you're going through. Every bike for whatever reason is different when it come to this. having said that: there is no one certain spot that it has to be, in the video this tensioner assembly is a little past the middle looking at it from the side view but you can place it a little more to the right ( closer to the sprocket if need be) or move it back ( to the left ) closer toward the tire if the chain in a little tighter. If you're chain has a lot of slack & you need to move it more toward the rear sprocket just be careful that you have good spoke clearance because the closer you move it toward the rear the closer the tensioner gets to the spokes when moving it back.. 👍Lastly when you do find that good spot, drill a small hole through the tensioner bracket & the bikes frame & place a small bolt through it to help ensure that just in case the tensioner tries to move inward to the wheel it can't get into the spokes, I personally use a steel rivet but a small bolt will work also. ( It doesn't have to be a Hugh bolt & nut ) If I can help you any further feel free to ask. 👍👍🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

I thought it may have been a little confusing about the drilling & bolting of the tensioner bracket through the frame, so as an example of what I was talking about is in this video link @ 2:03 on the time line and you can see on the bracket where I drilled it & put the steel rivet.. Once again you can use a small bolt, I realized not everyone has a rivet gun lying around.. Here's the link.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4Suga18mdVqjs0si=T4mTbjTyUD_-B_2w

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes I'm not having trouble with the tensioner my issue is more with the chain itself I uploaded a video to show and better explain my problem if you could please watch it and tell me what you think is really appreciate it I will comment the link as soon as it's done uploading

Just be careful and take you time when doing this because if you squeeze it too much it could pinch the inner steel liner & then it makes your throttle cable not work freely, just squeeze a little at a time, just enough to hold that sleeve in that adjustment nut.. 👍

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes v I just used electrical tape for now seems to work just as well.

@@michaelhart5087 If it works and keeps your throttle cable in position I say go with it.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

This adapter has never given me any problems ever. Right out of the box this thing fits properly & has never ever slipped or come loose & it fits the standard sprocket that comes in your kit so no need to spend the extra money on a CNC Sprocket that only fits its own adapter. I just used this one in the video, but I actually didn't have to file or grind on it, I just used it show how people could fix their cheaper ones to make them work.. I have two of them, ones been on for about 8 yrs now & the other ones going on two years.

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes cool thanks. I have the same one and was worried about the threads stripping out. They seem like the best design because their so much wider than the fancy cnc ones. Those cdh power sprockets with a gold chain do look sweet tho

Thank You.. 🙏🙏 I hope the video helped you.

You'll have to bore out the center hole of the sprocket to fit over the bearing dust cap on the wheel so it will fit properly & give you the clearance you need to put the brake arm on. If you don't have a way to do that the only other way to make everything work properly is to buy the CNC Sprocket & Hub adapter, that sprocket comes with a much bigger center hole that fits right on there and you won't have to do any extra work to make it fit.

Here is a link to a video I made that might help you better understand what I'm talking about to help you with your rear sprocket problem. I personally bore them out & use this Aluminum Hub Mount; these mounts work perfectly every time from this company (they don't slip on the hub) But if you don't have a way to bore out the center, I highly suggest getting the CNC Sprocket kit that comes with hub mount. I'm not a big fan of those rag joints that come with the kits they are a big problem & will definitely give you chain problems in the future. It is well worth the extra few dollars to not be broke down with chain problems far from home.. I hope this helps you.. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaHdl6h4qtR2aNksi=h7jBNKGzwd062cTw

@@EcoTransGaspoweredBikes that video was very helpful thanks

I don't believe so.. They are pretty easy to find, go-karts & Mini bikes use them so they are generally easy to find.

Thanks for the compliment.. 🙏If you are tired of pedaling then these bikes are your most cost-effective way of getting around. My best advice on having a trouble-free reliable experience with these bikes is to leave them stock & not build them for speed. Bikes were not designed to be ridden 30 + mph. riding them at high speed just kills the wheel bearings & will have you buying new rear wheels more than you need to & it gets costly after awhile. I'm a stock bike rider myself & I have over 15,000 trouble free miles on mine & I never have any problems out on the rode because I ride it like it was intended. My second piece of advice is don't buy a used one, in all my years of building & selling new ones, most people that are selling their bikes know there is something going wrong with it & they are usually trying to get a few bucks out of them so they can put that money towards getting themselves a new one. If they use the phrase ( All it needs to run again is.!!!) That's a Hugh RedFlag..!! Nobody parks or sells their bike over a $4.00 part. I hope some of this advice helps... 🙏🙏 In closing, go ahead & get one because they are fun to ride, inexpensive to operate & you get about 40 miles per tank of fuel so you can get some errands done a lot faster than pedaling everywhere you go. Good luck & enjoy.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

P.S. If you scroll through my page I have some step by step videos to help you build it.. 👍👍

I've been lucky all these years & have never had that happen. I can imagine that's got to be one hell of an experience when it happens.. 😲😲

This bike has coaster brakes, you pedal backwards to apply them..

I use a Lathe, but you can use a hole saw with a drill.

I agree with what you're saying, these transmissions aren't the best quality.. Although I'll have to say I'm on my second year with this one & it's still holding in there.. 🚴‍♂🚴‍♂

It is & I just had to ride it for a test, I don't know how they ride it like that.

That would have been a great idea for a video, I've done cylinders & bad pistons but never a complete inspection of a completely worn out engine.. I usually just fix or replace the problem & move on, now I wish I would have asked to keep the old engine. 😢😢Summer is just getting here so I'll probably see another one this spring sometime & then I'll do just that.. 👍👍
