Hookworms: Thicker profile, thinner rubber. (Bad) Drifters: Thicker rubber, thinner profile. (Good) Sorry for any confusion.

[@vicleopoldo7576]

I have the Surfas Drifters on my beach cruiser & it’s a great tire because its tread last me two years so far. Prior to that I was having to change my rear tire just about every couple of months. & it has I believe Kevlar built in them which makes it puncture proof, unless something goes into the sidewall. I’ve rode over thorns & it didn’t go through….Awesome tires!

[@Aidon420]

What kind of bearings are you using for the bottom bracket on the f-zero I bought the same frame havnt got to building it yet and was curious what size they where

[@gta5grindzxb145]

Kenda Komfort is also a very good tire for these bikes. I have a set on my phantom 85. Matter of fact, the original set on that bike were old and still held up, I just replaced them with new ones recently just for safety concerns. Ride safe

[@mattparker9726]

Look up Tannus tires. They offer solid tires. No flats.

[@tubbus3712]

Yo La Hover, please help me. I am banned on your server, no idea why.

[@willpresnell81]

You're always so respectful but at the same time you're kind of paying tribute to people who otherwise would have been forgotten. I really enjoy this and I hope you keep doing it

[@LAHover]

Thank you!

[@c-LAW]

6:21 I think this kind of speed is beyond the limit that a bike is designed for. I hope to build one like that soon.

[@Jarrod_D]

Let's go Brandon 💥 👊 😎 💥

[@413MassDigger]

Bikes purring like a kitten haha ,, sounds great!! there is a ton of overgrown long lost cemeteries out there unknown about!! Thanks for the awesome adventure!! I can imagine the long lost history dropped out there,, metal detectorist dream!! well not around the graves of course, but like you said, could have been a town out there!!! thanks

[@LAHover]

Good point, along that wagon trail could be some nice relics.

[@keeganhache6667]

Yup my trails are the exact same way so bumpy and hard on the bikes frame. That’s why I started riding street more just because I didn’t feel like breaking anything 😂

[@ogre2249]

I'm loving these long distance rides on a motorized bike

[@Excalibur250]

Maybe bring a charcoal paper rub for any of the hard to read headstones. Of course, I completely understand if you want to respect the site and not mess with it. Thought it might be a cool idea to help remember those forgotten by time.

[@oimpastato]

Please thank Tom for sharing with us. Glad you had a great trip, and clearly made it home safely.

[@Spodeboy]

Thanks for the fun adventure!

[@JMB676]

Also I really like my serface drifters a lot. I'm running them on my daily "TWEAKER" and I got a set on my new build too. I love the fps they have. Plus they grip excellent.

[@watcherofthingsthatrkekano5930]

Superb! Thanks for the fabulous exploration and bike videos.

[@kamilbmx]

Great video, i love discovering stuff on my bike. Thanks for the upload, keep up the good work

[@dannyoutlaw8001]

Another awesome video brother...I had a phatmoto and it is by far the best frame on the market... mine got stolen...but I did put a 212 on it and brother talk about strong they have stupid power and you can always switch it out to a 2stroke ...

[@Saddletramp1200]

Hi, nice ride, very few get what riding is for. MB is the icing on the cake.

[@LAHover]

You got that right!

[@jameshuffield1755]

Again an ideal video for the times. Good information plus a hell of a story. thanks man. Thinking about poking my noses into the KZbin world with motorized bicycle. going to start with the brave 7(it's what i can afford) plus samsung s22 phone. thanks again man.

[@LAHover]

Right on Builder! I wish you good luck.

[@siklistademakina]

Love this video! i sure miss using my felt faker, its still out of comission as Im still waiting for a gemini hub to arrive. also planning to replace it with a balanced triple 40, that phantom 85 engine really rattled my body and soul on my last 200km trip on it

[@LAHover]

Smoother motor should extend the life of that beautiful bike. You can get surprisingly good power out of the little China doll motors.

[@stlmotorizedbikes923]

Another awesome video. This adventure series you are doing is very well done and extremely fun to watch. I just wanted to say a quick thank you. I have watched pretty much all of your videos and used your given info when making almost all of my motorized bike stuff purchases. I will be starting my 3rd motorized bike build here shortly. (1st BBR stage 4 on 2021 Cranbrook 2nd Seeutek on older Cranbrook 3rd will be a YD 100 on a road master ) I will be looking into port work and balancing for my next endeavor. I also will be consulting your videos and recommendations for guidance , so again,....thanks for all your hard work , time and effort, ride safe

[@LAHover]

Ride on Builder! Thanks for the kind words.

[@motorizedbikestuff5339]

great vid ,glad you guys got to hang out hope ya had a good time, and a shout out to my homie asmask! and..i got the sb11 spirit box right here my dude lol let me know when you want to take it to the next level of motorized bike spirit hunting ! pet henry for me miss seeing him in your videos but looks like hes getting a little older and a little fatter from sitting around the house like the rest of us lol :) peace out !

[@mflbikes1870]

That was a fun little ld90 to build, beautiful sleeper build by asmask

[@LAHover]

It had some nice pull for sure, good job on that one.

[@mflbikes1870]

@LAHover that was a very mild cylinder, later on he added one of my more aggressive cylinders to it and it did around 50 on flat ground and over 60mph on a slight downhill

[@kaylasargent5578]

Sry I have a habit of watching ur videos with my hubby. We learn alot from you I still need to get on and like so for give me.

[@LAHover]

Thanks for joining our ride :)

[@Rideon187]

Thanks for sharing your adventures! I would bet there are a lot of unmarked graves scattered between the ones with headstones.

[@mattparker9726]

14:44 something I have on my Ebike, is a spring in post suspension seat, and OMG. It SAVES your back. Especially in MS/LA lines of potholes. (elsewhere called roads)

[@LAHover]

Just installed one on my long range ebike too. They are great!

[@kimdecastro9156]

thank you for sharing this video.

[@LAHover]

Thanks for tagging along :)

[@paradiseviews1533]

Duo ride was cool,

[@johngoodin3445]

I’ve got one suggestion to help make your tires last longer and be more resilient against punchers. Make DIY tube liners. Take some Vinyl siding and cut it into strips just long enough to overlap between the tire and the tube. Vinyl siding is a bit on the stiff side so you’ll need something like a heat gun to soften it up just enough for you to be able to incert it between the tube and tire. You can purchase tube liners at Walmart but they cost a little over $12.00 a bike. Get some Scrap vinyl siding for free and borrow a heat gun and do it for free.

[@LAHover]

Nice tip, thanks

[@maltfoto]

60 miles round trip? None of my last three rides were under 60 miles and my longest was 90 miles. Now there's some real trips for ya!! And all a on 49cc 4 stroke and Bridgestone Mb-6 build!!! Great Videos! Keep it up!!! Michael

[@LAHover]

A video about visiting a graveyard, and you're trying to 1-up me for range?

[@Jarrod_D]

Sorry about jumpig the thread 🖐🙂 but I Bet you haven't gone as far in a day as I have best day was 186 miles no night riding and 156 miles to the gallon. Posted it so you know it's real . Heck I did a 150 miles with no hands posted that to .

[@mozezcen-valley7555]

Kool video 📸 wow keep it coming

[@LAHover]

Thanks!

[@ethand4784]

hey I was wondering what to do, I have an 80cc engine and live in a hill-less area, what size gear should I use?

[@JMB676]

Personally I really like the real NT carbs too. They are simple and just work. I get so many people asking about carbs and going with a big one to get power n go faster. But I just feel most of the people are not racing their bikes like I. So cal and stuff and unless they stay very committed to learning how to tune a carb like that they just aren't going to get anywhere near the performance they would from a basic NT. Just my opinion but I ride a lot as you know and I never have trouble with the basic carb and they give me all the performance I need. After all most power comes from the port work anyway.

[@LAHover]

100%

[@a.m.bgarage.everydayprojec9665]

This is just a suggestion, but could you do an episode on brakes? I notice that you have the top-of-the-line parts on your bike, but it looks as if you are running the stock brake setup, which in my opinion, is pretty trash. It's a part that is almost always looked over, that is arguably the most important part of a motorized bike. It would be great if you could share the wonderful world of hydraulics, brake pad compositions, and what is arguably the best setup. Thanks.

Nothing fancy, but FAR from trash. catazer MTB Road HB-100 MTB Road Line Pulling Hydraulic Disc Brake Calipers Front & Rear Mountain Bike Disc Brake E-Bike Disc Brake a.co/d/7SjrlqQ As for finding the best information about good brakes, check out some down hill bike builds.

[@fabianse]

Do you ever plan on getting a new phantom 85 ever? Me and my friends welded up a custom exhaust mounting bracket for the phantom 85 that allows any other muffler to be bolted right onto the phantom. Little cool idea if u wanna give it a shot

[@LAHover]

If they start using a safer cylinder mold probably. Until then no, thing was a headache!

[@maxhearld1035]

She sounds good wide open awesome man

[@LAHover]

Thanks!

[@skylarcasal986]

I have a question for u I've been watching ur vids and wonder if u ever used solid rubber tubes before or would u to prevent flats

[@LAHover]

I have given it some thought in the past, but never tried them.

[@Orbacron]

Sounds like it could handle a 32 tooth on the back, but that would probably be top speed for it with maxed out speed torque

[@MichaelJakson]

How many km/h is your bike going?

[@motorizedbikeenthusiast6880]

I like wtb all terrain tires. Feel strong, handle sand and mud and gravel and pavement well and are supposedly "puncture impervious." Same material as wtb thickslicks so should be able to handle speed ok. Might be good on any bike My bike would be awesome on trails probably its got a real short wheelbase and steel frame

[@Piznos]

I know you probably answered this but what camera are you using to get the side shots of your ride? Sorry for asking something you probably already answered. Good vid as always!

[@iszlaimatyasjeno1301]

Is there any place where one could buy a hydraulic clutch alone (i.e. not included in a kit)? Thanks in advance. Also I cannot say it enough...this cemetery series is really entertaining!

[@LAHover]

At the moment I only see them on full kits... Sadly.

Just noticed you mirror. And I swear that’s identical to the one on my kawasaki Z900. That a Kawi mirror?

[@LAHover]

I could not say for sure, just saw it on Amazon and though it looked like it would hole up. I like it, solid mirror.

[@joebrown967]

Where do u get the hydraulic clutch

[@LAHover]

As of right now I think they only come as part of a full motor kit. I have not seen the clutch on the market by it's self yet. You can find the motors on ebay and sometimes amazon.

[@rez372]

question for you, im underage and dont have a license ive heard that the 50cc looks the same as the 66ccs is this true and is that really something i should worry about

[@LAHover]

I can't give any legal advice, but the 49 and 66 look ALMOST identical, and are hard to tell apart at a glance. I personally just stick with the 66cc and slap a 49cc vinyl sticker on it. Mainly because the 66cc quality seems better than the 49.

[@bumpofdeath666]

I think it's cool way cool

[@Bounceblockent]

i have a 26" beach cruiser with a 80cc motor your thoughts on me putting a 26" wheel on the front and a 24" on the back because a can't put my feet on the ground

[@youknowwhattimeitis1735]

I know recently you have been falling in love with fat tire bikes, but so far we’ve only seen electric ones. Do you think you would every purchase something like a Phatmoto? Or perhaps something else?

I know I want too, just so many things on the to-do list.

How did you keep the patties frozen on the trip 🤔

Tom supplied the drinks and food :) Only thing in my pack was water, basic tools, and a patch kit... I would have included the ReLive app trip, but Tom understandably did not want his location advertised to the world.

[@novavroomvroom3435]

Awesome... You know have a riding buddy with land with trails to ride on... Great and interesting artifacts/ cemetery on his land...!!!! There's an app. I use to communicate with my best friend of over 40 years... I told him before he passed that I will try to communicate with him... His family laughed at me until they have seen the responses my buddy gave me... He named his cat also and his 2 daughters... You have to be open minded and fearless to use these apps... having faith in GOD and saying a prayer before using the app is a must... You must always ask for the person you are communicating with to come through and no one else is allowed... These apps used correctly do work because they can also be dangerous by inviting a negative energy to come through...!!!!

[@LAHover]

Need to talk to a long lost loved one? There's an app for that. ...but for real, what's it called?
