Sir I appreciate your great videos, my wife keeps me well fed also. That means you too are a lucky man !

[@MrRayDupree]

I'm adding springs to my Realtree RT200 because of this video, and I'm following your lead! Thanks for all the information you flood the internet with! You Rock Bro!!!

[@murphyking79]

I wish someone would make a disc brake kit for the 200u-ex!!!!

[@johnjachens7103]

Same they make a kit on go power sports for front hydro disk brakes but it’s $160 and is never in stock just sells out instantly

[@bryangrim6021]

I was just looking at these bikes at the store and thinking “man that would be cool if they had springs on the seat. It almost looks like it was meant to.”, and low and behold, you have a video on it. Great job as usual! 👍

[@81chowder]

Riding in the yards fine, it's the testing grounds. Great vid.

[@kiv1739]

Makes my Monday so much better

[@bitterend2603]

I love the minibike Mondays. Keep on keeping on red beard I'm looking forward to the next one.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+Jesse Chance thanks for watching man

[@doofy28]

Thanks for the chain breaker link Mr. Beard.

[@gregbeutel8434]

Got two of these Colemans and watch your videos all the time- thanks for all the tips and cool content!

[@mfarmer2161]

Hey Redbeard, my son and I love your channel. Thanks for all the videos. Dont let mean comments get you down. You and I look like we could be brothers and I tried keto and its the only thing that works for me. Thanks to you I'm getting my son;) the ct200uex for Christmas! God bless and keep the fun rolling. Ps we'll make sure to use your links for all our mods

[@troycrowder9942]

thats being a good sport never let anybodys insults affect you in any way those people are evil they will answer for the things they say and do good job man chin up

[@rickkradel8477]

I like Red Beard's Garage. Lots of awesome ideas.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Thanks man

[@kingmaleek6334]

Publicly competing with cars and cameras would bring more viewers for both channels and possibly more sales for gopowersports

[@brettb86]

Man I wish I could buy this

[@fevq]

you deserve way more subscribers honestly

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+Slade G thanks man

[@-617-destroyer8]

This is awesome, going to go buy one. Thanks for the series on this mini bike!

[@edhavnfun]

Just subscribed but been watching you for the past couple years. I love these mb200's easy to work on, easy to modify and easy on the pocket. Thanks for your very helpful videos and ideas. You da man!

[@manuelcordova1027]

Think this may help me to stop hitting my kahoonas so bad on the dirt jump 😂

[@brutalcannon0179]

That's a nice mini bike

[@mariametko]

I look forward to buy two of these. Thanks

[@WK-cm4wo]

This was a great build, this setup looks better than others I have seen, just needs some paint on that frame, haha.

Good job keep it comeing. Paint the Bike red . Chrome out the engine

[@slimjim119]

Someday it would nice to see them on a trail where u can use all speeds

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+Jim Rowlings we will be going on a trip soon

[@josephfiorenzo1268]

You could have welded the shock gussets to the inside of that bar. It would have narrowed the profile. Great job!

[@JamesJones-zg4bv]

I noticed you do a lot of the work yourself, which is awesome but a machine shop in the area(with component machinist) could help in your business. You and (Go Power Sports) can get a lot of business in TN.

[@carriemeyer7657]

Oh I wish you were my best friend wish I could come to your house and bring all three of my bikes like yours and then she put my new predator motors on them and that you do my seats and do all that welding for me I’m a woman and I guess I need to learn this stuff I want to do all this I can’t believe that you got all that wonderful stuff!

[@UENVEYME2]

Coleman "Soft Tail" put the battery in storage compartment aka fake tank

[@Rebel-Neck]

I know I'm a bit late but you could have used a small piece welded in at the angle where the bottom shock mounts are. That would have helped with solidifying it if it caused problems

[@ryandavis4689]

Please compile a complete playlist with theses ct200uex mod videos. Also think it would be doable to put some racks on it? Maybe a small trailer with a small u joint? I wanna use for camping and hunting

[@cuttysark1983]

Keep up the good work got my son a Coleman 196 cc for Christmas can’t wait to customize it. What would be the first thing you change ??

[@johnmartin560]

You won't have to wait on jets if you buy a micro drill bit set from Harbour Freight. It's not perfect (jumps straight from a #39 to a #47) but It would at least give you a general idea which jet to order if you wanted to fine tune it. I'm also curious why you didn't mount the shocks at an angle and use the bar that was already under the seat to mount them?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+John Martin they would have been at the wrong angle to give good support

[@MrRayDupree]

Morning RBG! Apon watching your video I added shocks to my seat on my Realtree RT200 and it worked out great! I'm thinking of going with a Predator 420cc engine as I am 6-2 and 260 pounds. What torque converter would I need for this build?

[@slickwilly4722]

Dear RBG, I'm 6' tall 200lbs.....When buying my first mini bike do I go used, new, what brand, something someone has modified already.......etc.....what's the best bang for the buck......I'll be using it for a combo of trails and asphalt.........great channel BTW....... thanks

[@quintonarmstrong3486]

Do a video on adjusting the makuni I have one and it sticks wide open and runs like crap

[@Eric-fv4jx]

What is the difference in the CT 200 U & the CT 200 U-EX? I see the frame is different, has a better fork setup, and the EX looks bigger in the vid but wondering if this is a 2nd generation nomenclature and why they call it EX?

[@chrishorst6993]

Don’t like how people feel the need to insult people. I weigh 320# but I’m also tall. Wish I could ride these things. Would have to custom build even the frames

[@tycoonbob]

I'm 6'2" and 300lb, and I have both a CT200U-EX and a Trailmaster MB200. Both are quite comfortable for me and pull me around great.

[@southronjr1570]

Well dang if that dirt patch by the intersection didn't look like Georgia red clay.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+Southron Jr well ole TN isn't too far from GA

[@benjaminbailey7429]

Another awesome video. Just a thought I wonder how a single shock would have turned out under the seat. Kinda how atvs with a SRA rear axle use a single shock in the center.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+Real Talk I like the looks of two

[@waynedavis2505]

An air adjustable bladder under the seat. Where does the beer go?

[@pogonick55]

Is that duromax governed any lower than the predators? I know you said you gotta mess with the carb but it really didn't seem like it was opening up at top end. I'm sure you'll have her ripping in no time lol

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Well I pulled the governor off and did 18lb valve springs. I think it just needs a little carb tweaking and it will be all good

[@Ebikelover]

Great Build and video Red, how did you attach the steel to the bottom plastic of the seat besides the 2 bolts ?

[@mrjckelly]

Ok I may be missing, something but did you get your 60 tooth sprocket from go power sports? Needing part numbers for sprocket and length of chain.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Links should be in the video description

[@dajackisback4609]

Put a manuel clutch on that

[@JamesJones-zg4bv]

I would like to build a mini chop my self w/ a twin Predator all custom and UP grades just trying to get a shop going at the moment.

[@nathankaiser5592]

James Jones did you build it yet

[@DeadBaron]

I need to do this to my ct200u somehow. So badly. God, my back.

[@melloreel]

Dead Baron I just got a kit in the mail for my Ct200u to put springs under the seat. Gotta weld on the brackets, and build new seat for it.

[@blowndome]

Anyone know how to set up lights on a ct200u?

[@brutallyhonestmf5578]

@@blowndome you need to install charging coils

[@moopmoop3104]

Wow

[@cth0211]

can exhaust wrap be used on the entire new header? don't like burns! also, I want a little more top end out my new ex, what rear sprocket can be used?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

More top end us the 36 t sprocket go power sports has. The exhaust wrap would work great on the entire header

[@jvarrati]

Great Video! I have a question I have the same motor I purchased with the electric start what carb did you get that supports mini bike throttle Is that a duromax?

[@mikebavoso26]

Another great video. Best resource for information and parts for Coleman ct200u ex. Purchased 62 tooth rear sprocket. Easy to install. More power to climb 20% grade hills. Thank God for RBG... how would we know? Thanks!

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Thanks for watching man

[@truthseeker2900]

I will be doing this to my Coleman next.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Its a well needed upgrade

[@hauseboys4016]

How did you attach the plate to the seat. I'm gonna be using your idea but I'm installing a single spring in the center of my ct200u-ex. Im also trying to see if a 5.75 LED harley light housing will sit into the coleman light tub.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

+Hause Boys I just used the factory threads in the seat and drilled holes in the plate

Red Beard, I have been watching you videos and loving them. I see you have a link to the Lincoln welder that you used. Question: Are you using flux core wire, or "solid" wire and gas? Thank you.

[@1texasdad224]

I had a question. can you put a Predator to 212 without putting a new torque converter. Awesome videos by the way brother

[@1texasdad224]

@Skott Thank u . What is the size shaft it has now . I have OEM motors

[@1texasdad224]

@Skott Thank you so much Scott you and I need to become friends. I have two colmen CT 200 U EX and a kc100s w a 212 on it

[@natecameron7496]

When did you guys install the torque converter? Did I miss a video?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

When I put the engine on the bike. I didn't film it because I have filmed that a few times.

Hey man, where is the best place to find cheap Coleman ct 200? Thanks

Hey RB i ride on the road more than woods how many tooth sprocket should i use without losing all my torque?

[@howtoguroo2686]

I ADDED A REAR WHEEL TO THE FRONT SO I WOULD HAVE FRONT AND REAR BRAKES

[@RedBeardsGarage]

Doing the same thing actually. We just got the wheels in the mail the other day

[@howtoguroo2686]

IT IS EASY TO DO.JUST SWITCH THE LEFT AND RIGHT BUSHINGS AROUND AND SLIDE THE AXLE IN.ADD A BRAKE ARM AND CABLE MOUNT AND YOU HAVE A FRONT BRAKE

[@chriskeevert7332]

What size engine is on it, 212cc or 420cc ?

[@RedBeardsGarage]

212

[@Mikey-oh4lk]

I’m gonna get this tomorrow and I wanna go fast I need help cause I seen that people’s top speed is 20/22 I see if I can get this stock engine faster

[@AsTheWheelsTurn]

you sound like an idiot.

[@jakeday5936]

@@AsTheWheelsTurn 😂😂😂👌

[@johnchassie-rideout4927]

I like the seat but you should have used the old seat bracket and the bar to welded on to make a back rack at the same time. Also I've seen others shave the push rods to get more compression. Have you done this? Whats your thoughts? Or do new push rods come a with the performance kits you put on

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I have never messed with the push rods any. Im sure we will get into it soon

[@johnchassie-rideout4927]

SOMEBODY HELP! My son just got a Coleman ct200u ex and the chain that goes from the clutch to the jack shaft is mis aligned by about 3/16 of an inch. Has anyone else noticed or had this problem? I took it apart and it's all put together with factory spacers. The one behind the clutch seems too wide.

[@RedBeardsGarage]

I think mine was a little like this. Go to a hardware store and buy shorter spacers for it.

[@luckydad10]

Thanks, I just can't believe it came that way.

[@AsTheWheelsTurn]

why does it matter? there is a lot of tolerance with a chain drive system, not sure why you are concerned with this if it is how it came from the factory….did it not work properly or are you just being a worry wart for no reason?
