Ghost 212 gets a 24MM NIBBI Carburetor and speed test
Installed a 24MM NIBBI carburetor with a 120 main jet and a 35 pilot on the 212 GHOST-powered Azusa minibike to see if it would make any difference in performance.

You've been a huge help in my learning process. Thanks for the videos! Excited to do my first 212 build, stage 1 on a doodlebug. Love your "budget build" video, especially explaining how you remove the governor and oil sensor. Very helpful. Keep up the good work and be safe.

Would you choose this PE series over the PWK series carbs? I can’t decide which is best for my yx 140cc

[@brianarnone933]

I was hoping you made a video with an upgraded carburetor and here it is :) Yes valve springs would be in order I just hope the rod is decent and it's balanced. Top speed could have dropped due to rich jetting on top end. Shutting it off right at top speed and reading the plug would tell you a lot. With all those 4 stroke engines you should get a wideband like the AEM to know your a/f ratio so you can get the most out of the engine. Can you get stronger clutch springs to get a higher RPM off the line? That would help the 0-30 a lot since it sounds like the engine has plenty of power once the rpm's get up a bit..

[@Black66]

I have a Noram Cheetah clutch I use for High RPM starts. Check out the Doodlebug playlist. I use the Noram on that bike and others on the channel. Thanks for watching! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oGScq4Ote7aCiJo

How to you get tristar front wheels to stop shaking if they do? Mine is soo bad it is almost unrideable.

[@ephenj]

Hey hows it going, I had emailed you a while back about jetting a pe24mm carb well the idle screw houseing broke on that one so I'm going with the nibbi since it looks like a copy. I know you said you were at elevation. I started with a 40 pilot and a 140 main on the real keihin pe 24mm carb and the plug came out looking like it barely ran slight tan ring. "new build". Only had a bog off idle and could barely adjust the air screw out so I was guessing more pilot. Anyway I know elevation plays a huge role in it but it's at least a starting point when I get the nibbi in because I don't think the fix I came up with will last the vibrations ripping around the dirt oval.

[@BizWiz]

I'm at 5300 feet elevation , any recommendations on both jet sizes for NIBBi. Thanks

It's a plastic carb insulator. Helps to keep fuel temps down.

To my knowledge, may be wrong, but I believe the Ghost's coil pack is what governs them at that 6800 rpm. May check into that, tho, I'm not 100%.

I threw a nibbi carb on a 1983 Honda xl250r because I thought the old carb was plugged up. It didn't start before and it doesn't start now. Do you think the carburetor is the problem or could it be something else? Everything seems in check but still won't start. (Exhaust gets hot but doesn't kick over)

Check the ignition coil if it has the right gap or new spark plug

@@Wulf805 I bought a new spark plug and set the gap, and was the same. But I would think if it has spark, fuel, and compression it should kick over.....but nope haha. Also thank you for the input

Put some gas down spark plug hole. If it runs for bit you have a carburetor/intake problem.

@@litnlarry okay I'll try that. I think I tried before but just backfired.... I adjusted the valves afterwards due to them being too tight. but I'll try again. Thanks

[@thefishingchannel3192]

Just a bit of history on the bike. It was parked for quite a while because the kid said it was seized.... I got it to free up and move smoothly. It had oil in it and valves seem fine. It has compression and spark. The exhaust gets hot to the touch when trying to kick it over and pops out of the tail pipe sometimes.

You have got to change that gear ratio or tire size if your looking for top speed. I like you vids but man I feel bad for that ghost lol.

The ghost deserves some better love then wringing its neck on that small tire bike.

The philips head screw on the front side of the carb adjusts idle speed. (Facing towards the front wheel) Try screwing that out when the bike is running. It'll lower the idle speed. Screwing it in clockwise will raise it.

Don't go by other people telling you your jets are to small from factory, jetting is different, alot of variabls play into it. main thing is to make sure you don't have an air leak before you even start to tune the carb.
