Coleman BT200X Mini Bike Performance Parts, Build, predator 224 Ghost 212cc Part 2

Coleman BT200X CT200U CT200U EX
I installed the Harbor Freight Predator 224cc Max Performance engine.
Andy installed the Predator 212cc Ghost engine in his mini bike.
In the previous video we installed performance parts including exhaust, VM22 Mikuni carb clone install and carb tuning jetting, I even installed a CVT but the stock engines that comes in the BT200X ( Hisun 196cc clone engine ) isn’t as durable with the smaller 5/8” crack shaft.
We found this out after modifying them, they definitely have some limitations.
We won’t be doing a review of the Coleman mini bike in this video but we will definitely do some performance mods and a lot of mini bike riding.

Y'all never grew up, neither did I because I smiled all the way through.

[@steamfan7147]

Great fun machine! I've been wanting to experiment in making a "hill billet" flywheel for a 212. On some there is a rough cast step on the skirt of the stock flywheel that is machined and fitted with a ring gear on the electric start models. My idea is to take the flywheel and finish machine that step, then turn up a steel ring and shrink fit it on. I think this will work, because from what I have seen the electric start models don't have the inside out flywheel issue due to the ring gear holding everything together. Another thing I have seen with the stock flywheel is some of the "explosions" aren't due to the flywheel giving up. Instead, it's the flat head screw in the center of the impulse magnet that gives up and let's the magnet become one with the air cowl. I think doing the ring mod and replacing that screw with a flat head socket screw would be a cheap way to greatly improve the stock flywheel.

[@joell439]

Mike - cool upgrade. Loved the "On Any Sunday" cameo insert @ 12:40 👍👍😎👍👍. Definitely one of the best movies ever. Joel......

Thanks for checking out my new mini bike video Joel! Haha yes On Any Sunday is a classic for sure 😊👍

[@drewnewcomb2909]

@@Mikefestiva I was just wondering about the hella light on your brothers mini bike. Is it wired up or just for looks? Haha looks sweet. Also was wondering what clutches and rear sprocket you guys are running? Did you end up going back to the torque converter? Is your brother still running the jackshaft or did he switch to a torque converter as well? Love these videos man, you guys have great taste in how you modified them. Your channel is amazing, new subscriber and love all your projects and cool things you make! I am into everything you guys seem to be except I can't fabricate 😂

The Predator 224 is the way to go. Better block, crank, and the head is perfectly serviceable.

Your gonna love building up that 224. I did a full build on my 224 all billet parts and it’s a beast. Lots of torque

[@DibsRibs3279]

A really good mod to do for these coleman minibikes is getting a torque convertor. It really puts the power down!

[@shedtested27]

Thanks for sharing your experience and tips...Thinking about a mini bike for the grandson when he's a bit older.

[@larrytemen4789]

Finally someone that compared the ghost with the 224

[@Rebel-Neck]

Put 196cc heads and push rods on a 212 you won't regret it. I had my 212 cranking on stock internal parts. I even made an oil cooler for it. You can plumb propane into the intake of the carburetor, then when your riding wide open throttle you can crack the propane open and gain a few more mph. The propane works as extra fuel and at full throttle the engine will get the optimal air flow to burn the extra fuel. It's poor man's nos.

[@Jodyrides]

That’s remarkable on engines known to have Stone Age carburetors and no advance on the magneto ignition systems. These engines are generally designed to run at one specific RPM like on a generator or a lawnmower. I’ve never thought of them as something that has a wide power band

I really like those little minibikes, might work well at my farm. It is my understanding that the stock cast iron flywheel on the Predator engines are a disaster waiting to happen if you remove the governor. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it

[@michaelkern7260]

I love those mini bikes mike! Great job on the seat mod, the bars, the led lights super sweet upgrades. You guys are having way to much fun on them. Be careful.

[@_autoverse]

Looks like you’re having fun with these not just riding them but with the mods too. I reckon one of these bikes would be a good platform for anyone, no matter their skill level to try their hand at modding.

[@Mikefestiva]

They definitely are fun, yes there’s a lot of aftermarket parts available to really mod these engines 🙂👍

[@roypatterson9910]

I have a Coleman CT200U-EX, I bought a Tillotson 225cc Performance Engine from GoPowerSports, and I tell you what, it's a big difference between only going 19 mph to now going 59 mph. I could get it to go a little faster by changing the sprockets, which I haven't done yet, I've just left it like it is, because 59 mph is pretty good. I bought the engine last summer and it's a very reliable engine, plus it's beefed up to make the engine stronger. It puts out 18.626 hp, according to the dyno sheet they sent with the engine. You should get one of these engines, but they're not cheap!

[@Deucealive75]

59 mph on stock Coleman gearing? Wow. Sounds like a 10K+ RPM screamer.

[@OlympicOverland]

Those Tillotson motors are monsters! The 225RS would be sweet 👌

[@roypatterson9910]

@@OlympicOverland Yeah, I think the one I bought was the most expensive one. Then I had them replace the 22mm knock off Mikuni carburetor and put a 24mm flat-side Mikuni carburetor, which boosted the power up a little from what it would have been. They are strong and reliable engines, I highly recommend them to anyone!

[@roypatterson9910]

@@Deucealive75 Yeah, but I removed the jackshaft and put on a Torque converter with the juggernaut. The rear sprocket is a 54 tooth I believe, it was what came stock on it, but yeah, it definitely rips! I should post a video on my KZbin channel so everyone can see it.

[@OlympicOverland]

@@roypatterson9910 that’s awesome! I will look into one of the flat slides. I already have the 225RS intake manifold and like how it is tucked in versus hanging out to the side.

[@Deucealive75]

The flywheel you need for the 224 will be the same one you couldn't get for the 196. Remember? Great idea with the seat. I was looking at the same thing. I have a 78 RM250 seat I was thinking about using on my Coleman. Also. It won't take a lot to get the 224 to keep up with or beat the Ghost.

Welcome back! hey Mike thanks for the video! Its really great in the USA you can just go to harbor freight and buy stuff like small engines. Locally here in Estonia theres not much to choose from atm... like either go with a 6hp or a 6,5hp... lol only option would be to order from amazon... Retailers do stock some engines but at outrageous prices (500 for a 7hp engine......) I bought the 13hp engine for my bandsaw mill for only 300 bucks...Great video very enjoable to watch. I hope your having fun at your cabin :) Btw you reached 200k bud huge congratz from me :)

[@Mikefestiva]

Thanks for checking out my new video Ants! Yes the little engines are available at a great price. I just bought a Harbor Freight Predator 212cc engine on sale the other day for $139! A few years back they would go on sale for $99! The really cool thing is just how many parts are available to make these small engines put out twice there rated HP. 200K is pretty crazy 😜 now if I could get YT to start recommending my channel and videos once again to new viewers and my subscribers 😂

[@deankdx]

I am surprised thebike with poor fitting gas cap can be sold for safety /fire risk in mind. I recently came across a channel called ROBOT CANTINA which put the 212 hemi thena 420cc into a Honda insight car and they didn't stroke it but would be interesting to see how that would have improved it . there's a playlist which if you check out episode one will give you enough to suck you in to the build or not.

[@alsouthern7190]

Mike. love your channel, always something good to watch!

[@DougsMessyGarage]

Hey Mike, I have a build series on my channel with the Mega Moto 212 from Go Powersports running the Predator 224. I agree completely that the 224 has great torque. I'm hoping to install some minor hop-ups on an upcoming video too. Bone stock, I am getting 39 mph. I don't expect much more speed till I get rid of the governor but it will be interesting to see what improvements I can make in torque with a few inexpensive parts.

[@TheGraytOutdoors]

I recently (yesterday) took the stock 196cc off my CT200U and putting on a standard Predator 212. It’s amazing how much alike the two are visually (aside from the side case bolt sizes) but they definitely aren’t similar in performance in my opinion. Even though we joke about Harbor Freight and their products, the Predator engines always seem to be dependable, smoother, and definitely better built then what Coleman is using.. I’m building my CT200U as an actual piece of usable equipment for my fishing channel so there won’t be a lot of performance mods, more more necessity than fun I guess you’d say… next I need a suspension for the front!!😳 and maybe a Springer style seat. Great video Mike, you guys are some mini bike riding monsters… Willie

[@Schmmoo]

Hey what’s the speed difference from the 196 to the 212

[@TheGraytOutdoors]

@@Schmmoo Actually, top speed is the same just because of the gearing. I didn’t change the gearing at all but I can say, the idle is definitely quieter and smoother. Accelerating is a lot less “jolty”. Definitely a smoother experience, so getting to that top speed is a lot nicer and quicker. I would say it’s 0 to 20mph time is better.
