Taking Delivery + Dyno Tuning our $6,000 ALL BILLET Animal for our Land Speed Mini Bike

So why is the channel known for budget builds doing a video on a $6,000 mini bike engine? Because Bonneville, baby!

[@Powercat46]

hint from an old fiberglass guy.. After you have it taped up coat it with Johnson's floor wax. It will let the layup release from the shape easily and make your inside a smooth finish. You could use more expensive mold-release products, but the plain floor wax works fine. Also if you want to have the inside of the fender a finished color that is molded in, you could get the pigment to add to your resin, coat the waxed surface with a good thick layer of it, and let it set up a little till it's tacky then start laying your fiberglass over it. When you pull out the tape and stuff the fender inside will be a finished surface.

[@connorthecarguy6835]

Ike's face throughout the rpm conversation at 5:30 is awesome! It's the slow realization of just the kind of monster that's in front of him.

The full throttle on that little engine was absolutely impressive, definitely a rebuild case on every other race at the go-kart track or maybe four races!

Looking good guys. Here's a tip for fiberglass, wet the mat with the resin before putting it on mould. It's messy but will be easier to get it to stick onto mould. Great work. Should get 100mph.

[@FishingWrestlers]

Every week I can’t wait for Wednesday because I get to watch you guys

[@sladejohnson]

On my stroker animal builds, I had the same issue since i was running a stock raptor crank in my animal. The keyway does not line up for the PVL flywheel and ignition. To fix the slipping we lapped the flywheel on the crank with valve lapping compound then pressed it on using 609 loctite. Once it set, we had to heat the crank slightly with a torch to get the flywheel off. Never had a problem after that.

[@bach2458]

i think it will go 87mph. Keep up the great work as always guys!

[@Robtuse_]

Little personal fiberglass tip, don’t know If it’s correct but it’s what I’ve found works. I like to completely dip my mat or pre soak it before laying it on, helps it stay where you need it

[@revelationakagoldeneagle8045]

Great Engine Build. It should hold up well. The bodywork is coming along great as well. Keep The Shiny Side Up 👆

[@alexcole9890]

When it comes to fiberglass, you want to try and squeegee as much of the resin out as possible with a bondo spreader or something. Smaller amounts of resin (still fully saturated though) and more fiberglass will give you the strongest part. This is why vacuum molding makes incredibly strong parts. It will also help with weight

[@furmaster212]

Don't forget of course it will definitely need to be retuned when you get it here to Utah, all my bikes run smaller jet than the rest of my friends at sea level!

[@kevinhildum9186]

[@WyFoster]

Dyno definitely reads low. Last engine I got from Johnnie was about 25% below what the data from my onboard kart computer calculated.

[@stevemacdaddy9909]

Gotta be honest. I'm really excited about this build guys.

[@realone4341]

You need to flare both sides of the front fender to deflect air from relatively flat (but angled) front body section. Gotta get rid of more turbulence up front although smoothing the windshield base out will help. You are going to find that aerodynamics is king to simple horse power. If you guys are serious you will design and fabricate a drivers suit the back of which will be sculpted somehow and make it real "slick."

[@FloridaMan0561]

This is the best looking engine y’all have had yet!

[@3GingerCats]

If you are going to Utah, make sure you take some go-karts to Matt's Off Road Recovery and do a Collab! I would also love to see what that monster engine does on a Tillotson Go-kart if it survives the Big Speed run, maybe set a speed record on a 1/4 mile oval track for other people to chase!

[@TVR-jc5uf]

I hope y'all are calculating for the 4200ft elevation at Bonneville as well as the high temps when selecting jets. I would suggest you have AF monitoring on the land speed record bike. What works on the dyne in the Piedmont is gonna be way fat in Utah on the lake in the middle of August.

[@crashtfa]

Something to help with fiberglassing, when I was building an experimental aircraft I had to fab my own gas tank, so I used a giant block of styrofoam and a heat knife to for the foam to fit inside the wing, then glassed up the foam, and used some gas to melt the foam, not sure if that was the right thing to do but it did the job and as far as I know she is still flying with that tank 10 years later

[@380.motorsports]

I seriously doubt you will ever go 3 miles on that bike. You won’t need it to reach its top speed. More likely you will get to top speed in one timed mile. I just got home from Speed Week and it was wet everywhere but on the actual track. Hopefully by the time you get there it will dry out more but go prepared for a wet and sloppy entrance and pit area. The altitude at the salt flats is just over 4200 ft. As the temps rise during the day you will be seeing air density numbers well over 6000ft so be prepared with jets, etc. Hopefully you read this in the rules but make sure you have a tether engine shut off wired in and a front fork stabilizer. Be prepared for a little bumpy ride from the start line to somewhere in the florist mile and then it should smooth out. Best of luck going fast. Racing on the salt is a bucket list experience.

[@JMLUSA1]

Not Sure you'll see this tip, but a friend of mine AL LAMB is a LSR record holder, and If you look at his bikes, you can see the AERO designs. I'm sure you've done your homework. 😊 Tip on the rider padding: Contouring helps stabilize your body, minimizing body movement and scary instability oscillation.

The way that engine vibrates it'll be tough to keep the carb on what a monster 👹

You need to look at the shape of the front body panel. I think it may create some lift. You might want to direct the air around instead of down.

[@donbot5000]

It might be ok . Their body weight looks like it will mostly be on the front end as your torso weighs more than your legs. The airstrip test will tell them alot.

[@emmajacobs5575]

This was my first thought on seeing the shape of the bike last episode. If you look at most high performance road bikes or racers in side profile, the fairing sort of follows the curve of the front wheel, coming down and forwards, not sloping back.

I started off with a V-Twin 24 hp. Briggs and Stratton motor. the INTEK. 724CC 24 HP. So far I've had it ported and polished customized header. I had it on a bronco mini bike chopper with chrome custom forks with 10 inch chrome spoke rims front and back.. It sounded like a baby Harley-Davidson. I end up selling it at the beginning of Summer for an awful low price of $2,700 the guy down the street as a Harley-Davidson thousand cc motor from the 1970s on a quadrunner. He mostly rides it on the blacktop or at the drag strip. That is well it's a real head-turner.
