[@michaeldesantis2829]

Maybe a makeshift air scoop over the carb to force even more air through the intake might make a difference. It would be interesting to see if that would work to bring it closer to 45 mph.

Black 66, this was so surprising i had to share…i put a bone stock predator 224 in my cc100x bike with 12/59 gearing and 15” tires and it went 44.4mph with me first time out. Im 185 pounds. Beast for a stock motor in a tiny bike😄👍😳

[@Black66]

Yes! The 224 has some good torque with that 58MM stroke. 👍

[@Carvino]

shim the valves and do lash, port and polish and deck the head, polish the rod, take the filter plastic cover off, make muffler more free flowing by putting bigger pipe in between flange and box, run distilled alcohol with bigger jet

[@abebuildz]

one of the best when it comes to mini bike builds

[@RL69420]

To those who do the zip tie bypass, the biggest and most dangerous risk is the flywheel exploding at high rpm, the cast iron isn’t designed to spin as fast without the governor working. If your engine is on a mini bike that means shrapnel into your leg and thigh where major arteries are, if the engine is in a go kart, that means shrapnel into your back or head where vital organs are. Save the money and buy a billet aluminum flywheel, your life isn’t worth 2-10 extra mph.

[@Black66]

This is why you should read the disclaimers on the 400 or so mini bike videos on the channel. Thanks for watching!

[@scottyyeo7759]

Just don’t hold it at full throttle for longer than 10 seconds when components are cold/overheating is what i do😂

[@187chubbz]

You can have a carb and a gov delete n your barely running the risk of blowing it I’m sure you can zip tie it 😭

[@scottyyeo7759]

@@Black66 exactly!!!

[@doctorromex7804]

Do the porting on the head, belt sand the head surface and lap it flat to raise the compression, add a pipe (you could make one at home using scrap and the original flange) Cut half the flywheel fan blades off and throw away the air filter box.

[@krisley5178]

That was a fun experiment! As a machinist, just one tip...get used to measuring things with your calipers back on the thick part of the caliper jaw. The thin tips of the calipers are the first thing to wear out and give you a bad measurement. 👍👍

[@mikesbarn1858]

The muffler flow is terrible. Use a dremel to open the inlet. Remove the spark arrester. Mill the head .0006 for compression. Check that the throttle stop screw is set to allow the carb to open fully. Remove every other fan blade to reduce resistance. Use a discarded pop (soda) can to make a thin head gasket. Don’t forget safety 3rd or 4th. I forgot which.

[@3GingerCats]

my first engine, I cut the flange off the stock exhaust, and welded it to a pit bike pipe I cut up and put a pit bike muffler on it... really cheap (and I did put a small rats tail file down it to port match it as much as possible, and rilled the jet out to 1mm, disconnected the "govna" it was still in there but cable tied the lever back the same direction the throttle pulls it, but the cable acted on the throttle itself. it was definitely noticeable where the power picked up. I would love to see the 0-30 times upped to 0-45mph as most of the lower speeds is the clutch engaging. (the best test is from where the clutch fully engages up to somewhere between maximum torque and max power) I now have a CM grind (close to a fire265?) flat top piston, 10/thou gasket, VM22 etc, but yet to test it out fully

[@Formalite]

Stange, I had the exact same build, stock predator 212 on a CC100x frame and I could only ever hit 28mph top speed, but the governor zip tie brought me up to about 37-38

[@reivax6368]

yea i did 30 with the stock motor but with the zip tied govenor i did 36

[@3GingerCats]

@@reivax6368 I don't understand why people don't just shorten the spring or swap mounting holes (or drill a new one) and wind the stop out, that way it still limits the revs using the governor rather than bouncing valves

[@FallenGodVex]

Just 212 swapped my bike something I did was take the throttle limiter off which gives you five hp Main mods you can do for faster and better performance would be a stage two kit if you have stock internals or if you have built internals a stage three to stage four kit would work too (obviously these would cost a lot of money but it’s the best way to get as much speed and power from your bike)

[@Black66]

Check out the playlist on the channel for the stage 1, 2 and 3 kits

[@mc4492]

Thanks for always sharing your tips and tricks. Will definitely try these on my stock 212.. BTW ,great 1 handed filming. I know it ain’t ez😅.. Love your channel. Ride fast.. Ride safe..👍🏼✌🏼

[@mlindsay527]

Not sure if it did anything, but I “ported” the stock muffler with a dremel where it connects to the engine. There is quite a step there. Stuffed a small rag in first to keep the filings out of the muffler.

[@Black66]

I have a gasket match video on tbe channel .

[@83K5Blazer]

Would have been interesting to see just air filter removed before the re-jet.

[@aaron7520]

add a short header and do a comparison video, watch it fly. also for free mods: Port & polish head, lap valves, maybe mill head for more compression. Gas port piston to reduce blow-by. Port carburetor to larger diameter. Drill a bunch of holes in muffler.

[@Black66]

I hear what your saying. Check out the $100 Predator build. I did exactly what your saying and the bike gained quite a bit of speed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2nEgH-jqt-fe5o

[@999benhonda]

It's crazy the speeds he gets with these bikes. I drive offroad only, and a centrifugal clutch wouldn't last 5 minutes with the kind of gearing he's running. 35mph is a good top speed with a moded 212 setup with offroad gearing. Even with a torque converter, 35 isn't bad.

[@buddahmayne9273]

What gears do you run

[@thirdgenmacgyver2626]

You can also take the resonator off the exhaust and take a drill bit to increase the size of the holes in the stock exhaust , as far as basic any one can do it mods

[@Black66]

Yes, I bet that would make a big difference.

[@JVScustoms]

Great video man!! So advancing the timing is more for helping the acceleration not so much top end? Thx for everything you do sir. We all value your time and knowledge

[@Black66]

Thanks ! That seems to be right. I've tried timing on a modded motor with the same results.

I know this is a little off topic but I was wondering if you knew about the stock carburetor float if they weren't level for instance I built up predator and it was running fine with the stock carburetor with a jet kit once I mounted it to my race kart frame at a 15° mount it floods the carburetor great video again!!!

[@Only1Shogun6]

Hey can you start doing different clutches like the Hillard clutch and other clutches like that

[@lazydog1964]

My question is why not just record times going opposite direction? Just curious and I run a torque converter and recommend it for heavier riders. Nice video

[@Black66]

Thanks, because by changing the direction adds variables. It could be slightly up hill or down hill compared to the original direction. I try and keep the variables to a minimum . That way the test are as accurate as possible.

Is zip tieing the Governor safe , long term?

[@Cal3b587]

As long as you don't upgrade the valve springs and don't stay in high rpms for too long you should be fine but if your going to run it long term you should definitely upgrade to a billet rod aluminum flywheel 26lb valve springs

[@zivenwitczak3842]

Won't the engine blow with the governor ziptied? Or does it still engage?

[@bikelife_berg]

Not necessarily the issue people have with a gov delete is the flywheel which isnt made for high rpm and is a large safety hazard

[@elmocabrello2555]

Once I drilled the jet on my 212 it won’t move even at WOT just sits with no power won’t stay idle will just die

It appears it’s too lean even though I installed a bigger jet and e tube and twisted the idle screw. Would a bigger pilot jet fix the issue? Can someone pls help me thanks.

[@mikesbarn1858]

Sounds to me as if something didn’t seat correctly. Also check for air leaks around intake. Use brake cleaner and spray the junctions. If rpms change there’s your leak.

[@timduncan5845]

What gearing do you recommend for cc100x with stock 212 on road and off road . I got the bike as parts with no rear sproket

[@Black66]

Check out this video. I was running the stock 75-tooth rear sprocket and a 12-tooth clutch. The bike had a lot of low-end power and plenty of top speed. That could be good gear for you if you're using the bike off-road on hills and trails. A little smaller rear gear might not hurt if you want a little more top speed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpubiaucq7KViKc
