I have a phantom v3 with almost 10k miles on it with a 34 tooth sprocket that would top out at 41mph on flat ground with my 250lbs on it at 65°f and 26" wheels.. I took my dremel and ported and matched the intake and exhaust ports and lowered my jet to the highest setting, and run 25/1 mix and now I hit 50 mph on flat ground.. 52 if i run 93 octane... The phantom is a beast!!!!!❤

[@ToddMiller-rg6dj]

Running that speed with a Stock chain??

[@shtboxgarage]

Why not run closer to 40:1?

[@mikecyanide7492]

​@@shtboxgarage20:1 for phantom. Everything else 40:1. Cuz kaboom if not

[@danielfouardlibertarianono8017]

I went and bought. 025" copper plate from the hardware store. And cut out my own head gasket. Then I heated it up with a propane torch to cherry red and let it cool naturally. This anneals the copper (takes out the work hardening from the manufacturing process) and makes it much softer for a way better seal than the aluminum gaskets. And boy did I notice a difference instantly! I also have mine on a trike built off of a schwinn stingray and a headstrom rearend. My rear end has independent axles with freewheels on both axles. So I always have two wheel positive traction going forward and one wheel can turn faster than the other so I can turn corners. But I have to start the engine with the pedals. So that puts my sprocket ratio at 25 to 22. Otherwise I have to literally stand on the crank to start the bastard. Which is ok unless I have a breakdown. Then pedaling at a near 1 to 1 ratio is tedious.

[@kylep3764]

Sounds like quite a build!

[@wtmotobikes8838]

Didn’t expect the phantom to run so good. Kinda Impressed

[@grendelsgarage9723]

Thanks for the video 📹. Just picked up the max. Should be fun. Wow that phantom 👻 😅 is something else 😳 👏 😍

[@jmrides777]

Great vid bud. One day I'll get my hands on a Phantom 85......one day🤤

[@mikemiller3303]

Thanks for the info very helpful

[@j.aguilar8430]

Great video 📹 Can you share with us what set up do you have far is front and rear sprocket

[@dannyoutlaw8001]

That breaking up at high rpm is because the magneto doesn't put out enough power for the dual spark plug CDI...it won't do that with the single plug set up IV got that same engine and IV tested it both ways

[@bren42069]

Have you tried the 12v magneto?

[@joshapples88]

Just got my Zeda max 100 . It’s my 1st build so I hope it turns out well.

[@purekryt6961]

How’s it goin

[@pitapitabread]

the exhaust leak sounds great! Could you please do comparison of a YD85 52mm engine?

[@kennethmeese]

Where can I purchase one of those engine stands you are using to work on the engine? I've looked everywhere but can't find them.

[@kennethlloydr.sentino934]

Bro in the phantom 85 the Fzero frame what size is the fork and the rims?.... Is it 26ER?

[@kennethlloydr.sentino934]

Bro may I ask what size is your tires at the phantom 85 is it 26ER?

[@christiancolvin615]

Which tooth would be best I’m thinking the 44 but I don’t know more sounds better but what do I know

[@fabianse]

Yo MJ how's the Phantom holding up so far?

[@kylep3764]

I'm not him, but I've run my v3 phantom for about a year with just over 9500 brutal miles on it and it runs like a top so far... knock on wood lol! I do run 25/1 to be a little safer tho

[@BAMFSpYdy]

I've got a question. I noticed you have a disc brake on the rear of the silver bike. Did you modify it to work with the chain sprocket? I'm looking for a bike for the engine I just ordered and I would prefer disk brakes.

[@sealeyscience6181]

Yes man I &I was checking out the Fire Max 100 what's the stamp on the crank rod??? Cylinder look look LD 100 cylinder looks like the seller give it a fancy name for sale looks like a YD bottom. As you were

[@user-ly1sb1qp5q]

hey whats the most reliable engine i can buy

[@BUZZLIKER-2507-_-]

The double spark plug what gives more than the one spark plug?

[@MotorizedChuck]

Phantom 85 is hands down a stronger and better built engine. However, not for the beginner. You should still tear down the case and do a thorough cleaning, chase all the mounting threads including cylinder and use locktite blue on the studs! Then you'll have a reliable motor

[@Matthew-wj8cm]

Wow, the LD100, I kinda want that engine. However, that 33 mph was unimpressive. I bet that exhaust gasket screwed you up

[@fabianse]

For real.. 33 is a bit of a disappointment. I’m sure with porting it’ll fly

[@Matthew-wj8cm]

@@fabianse hey Fabian, the porting was supposed to be good on one of these. I think it still has the port duratuon problém like the yd100 does. Needs like a 8mm spacer and a head shave to have proper timing

[@MJTechChannel]

Yes it did. It blew the gasket. I fixed it and did 39mph. It needs a main jet tuning. 😊

[@fabianse]

@@MJTechChannel ahhh okay okay

[@planetoftheabes9351]

So I've built a bike with stock Zenoah 29cc and I promise it will leave either of these bikes long beyond the blue Smoke🤙 I do like the manual clutch on bike kits but motors just don't compare to RC motors.

[@theLyzhendricks]

U have no vids on ur channel of it ill belive it when I see it

[@robertkgunn]

No you didn’t

[@lemjohnson6798]

I'll believe that with some photographic evidence

[@kylep3764]

Even if u did, it must be super expensive to run all that nitro meth at 80 bucks a gallon

[@Allyoucaneatmeat]

What oil do you use for this engine? I can’t seem to find what’s mentioned in the instructions as “Valvoline Two Stroke Racing Oil,” is this the same as Valvoline multi purpose oil for two stroke engines? I also already have Lucus’s semi-synthetic 2-Cycle oil, is it safe to use?

[@Sparrow_Dynamic]

They say not to use synthetic

[@mendez1261]

Do you have a link for the front forks? On the LD

I have ? , i ordered a phantom 85 v3 not try to go fast im 50 yrs of age will that engine run well on a fat tire bike

[@Westhelockpicker]

Can't wait until they make a good expansion chamber for the phantom 85

[@MJTechChannel]

They should and quick

[@Westhelockpicker]

@@MJTechChannel should really open it up. I got a different reed valve so I can put on a 22mm carb

[@Westhelockpicker]

@@MJTechChannel I'm going have a garage make me one I don't want to wait

[@keichoseminoles8804]

Should get the expansion chamber pipe they offer

[@Westhelockpicker]

33 is really disappointing! I've done 40 mph on a BBR engine. It had all the performance parts but still

[@MJTechChannel]

It blew the exhaust gasket I’ll do a new speed test soon.

[@pauls5745]

they are more torquey tho not as high revving

[@Westhelockpicker]

@@MJTechChannel you should buy an all metal gasket. Hughes motorized has a link for a gasket for a sensor for something on a car that's all metal and exactly the same size as an exhaust gasket

[@Eduardo_Espinoza]

Thought it went 41mph? 10:45 Oh looks like a spike glitch

[@tiger7777]

Is that Phantom 85 reliable now? Also, is that felt faker clone durable frame and wheels? I'm guessing it is also from Bicycle Engines also?

[@csint-spex]

It is soviet union engine f 80 and f100 what's was copied by China 🇨🇳 and sell it to you for 600% more of the real price) but soon in usa black monkeys says to you to drive only with bml flag and suckoff for LGBT) u pure usa. Still think that you exists lol

[@DEO-oe1dn]

There's going to be a really big difference with the upgraded muffler

[@TanveerOrAhmad]

How much tight pully need or near wheel please guide

[@KyzoFox]

Half an inch of free play up and down tension. Just like motorcycles

[@GalaxyGoose6]

Really wanna buy my first engine…that being said it would mostly be used for commuting. My daily commutes are between 8 and 15 miles and around 20-30 minutes. I need something reliable but also fairly quick as I’d like to get there within the same time as a car. I was looking at both these engines as well as a bbr 66/80cc and a Zeda 80. Just not sure what to go with. I need something I can hop on and just go with whenever though. Please help. Looking for some good reliable options and resources. People who have used these engines for over 1,000 miles that can honestly say they’ve been great with little to no down time.

[@GalaxyGoose6]

Please help!

[@carguy6699]

I went with the bbr stage 4 kit for head it comes with. Dm me and I can let you know everything I did to have a well sorted bike that was pretty reliable and quiet and quick.

[@carguy6699]

Or I guess can't dm. Respond and I'll give you a list of everything

[@carguy6699]

You will need to collect multiple clutch and throttle cables. A few cdi to have on hand. A billet sprocket adapter. A 36t gear. Nt speed carb. Don't even bother with that HP carb. Buy a couple carb jet kits. Mz65 exhaust pipe. A silencer muffler from Amazon. Gold HD chain. Dual brake lever. Billet throttle assembly. SS bicycle brake cables for your clutch and throttle cable. Exhaust wrap the chamber and Coat it in high temp copper Silicone to keep it from coming apart and getting on your clothing and to keep from burning yourself. A bigger gas tank. I gasket port matched and so on for exhaust and intake. Good tires and brakes. Brakes don't have to be disc. Just make sure to use the proper compound for high speed. More for like dh mtb

[@vintagethrifter2114]

If you want dependability and get on and go, get a 4 stroke.

If it bogs at high rpm or you feel like it hits a sort of "Rev limiter" before it should the u prlly need a bigger jet, unless you can adjust the needle more than it already is.

I guess I should watch the video first try putting that upgraded muffler on the phantom 85 but you hit 55.60 mph

Phantom 85 is simply the best, it be great to put that dual sparkplug setup on it and see what happens
