From Mini Bike To Hemi Bike (Hot Rodding a Coleman CC100X)

We picked up a Coleman CC100X from walmart and throw a beefy new motor on it. Going from a 100cc motor to 212cc motor with upgrades.

I have the same exact Coleman mini bike and I was recently thinking of buying a 212 engine and with this video I now know the engine will fit very nice , thanks !

Sweet! Have fun, be safe!

These Colemans look a lot like my Motovox. I put a Briggs Raptor on mine. Giving it away if I don't sell it before I reach 1500 subscribers. Looks like y'all have as much fun like myself with all the toys. Definitely earned my sub.

[@jamestani3450]

Can you please explain to me how to get the stock throttle assembly off and upgraded to the mikuni carb? I am doing the swap currently but a little confused with the stock throttle system on the harbor freight predator motor. Do I remove that? Cause the mikuni has the spot for the throttle cable? Just a little confused on this part! Thanks so much.

[@TheDeweeze]

When you do a cam you need heavier valve springs, billet rod, as well as a billet fly wheel. That shit won’t last long.

[@MidpackMania]

For a more aggressive Cam absolutely, for the cam used here and linked in bio its basically an improved stock cam. You should still always run a billet flywheel, but we’ve raced engines built near exact to this for 20+ races without issue, certain classes do not permit the use of a billet flywheel and rod. I’d never throw a 308 cam in an engine without a complete billet setup lol, but for this build we used mild parts and ensured everything was torqued to spec, it’s mainly for cruising the pits anyway.

is it ok to run motor that way with clutch that way

What’s the torque on the bolts of the 212Cc

[@racore1623]

if you remove the governor you can reach 35-40 miles

So you did not have to make new engine mounting holes the holes lined up ?

[@MidpackMania]

New motor bolted right on

Remove the throttle screw removing governor can damage the engine and you’ll blow the engine

[@rodrickjames3759]

Was the chain length 106 or 120 link

[@alexjohnson-c2r]

What size screws do you use to bolt the 212 engine to the bike?

[@MidpackMania]

Nate Steoger I believe I used 1/2 inch bolts

[@bellagio88]

what size jet did you wind up using and how can you tell you need a new jet ?

[@MidpackMania]

Bellagio A .038 is the recommended with a high flow air filter and header. You can tell because the motor will feel like it’s sputtering like it’s not getting enough fuel.

[@teagansargent1167]

Did you use the clutch that came with the 100cc motor or did you get a different one?

[@MidpackMania]

The crank is smaller on the 100cc so the clutch won’t fit. Had to get a bigger one.

is it acceptable to have the clutch facing that way ?

It doesn’t matter which way it goes

[@natedogg0773]

I have the exact same engine and bike for my son and we are doing the same thing based off of this video and I was wondering if you could tell me what the chain length and type is cause we are stuck until we know what chain to get

Awesome! If you still have the stock chain you can use that. That’s what I used.

[@natedogg0773]

Ok thanks we just found that out

Probably have to remove the tensioner if it won’t fit right. Have fun be safe! Thanks for watching.

[@natedogg0773]

Ok thanks

[@franciscocalvillo3879]

What kind of chain does it take?

[@briantruck2284]

35 or 420 chain

[@altezzagarage9341]

If you don’t take the governor out do I still need to do all that work on the throttle

[@MidpackMania]

Cheetahz Shotz if you leave the governor you can just run the throttle cable straight to that piece on the motor and bypass everything else.

[@altezzagarage9341]

So I don’t have to bend anything

Haha that things sketchy fast.

[@josesnooty6301]

Can you put a torque converter on the engine ?

[@vernlochtefeld1626]

The BT200X (big tube) is taller stronger frame with front shocks & 8” wheels instead of 6”. The one to have for 13 to adult toy. (Rural King or order from Walmart) Remove the governor & add juggernaut converter (gopowersports) and you have a 50 mph mini bike. Buy a rear wheel with brake assembly from Coleman and swap it in for front brakes. Stupid fun for cheap & minimal work.

Do you know what the difference is between the ct100u and cc100x?

fishingtwister yeah for me I just happened to catch this one on sale at Walmart and planned on modding it up anyway, if it’s for a kid the ct100u definitely seems like a more sturdy/safe bike. I wouldn’t buy a Cc100x again.

Nicholas Jackson in that case, just break the chain where you bent it, and use another chain to re add the links. If you haven’t fixed it already that is.. sorry for the misinformation on the chain. I haven’t had to upgrade the chain, but that chain in the link is what we use for everything so we have a bunch and usually just build one to length.

[@altezzagarage9341]

Can I use the stock clutch from the old motor?
