[@stevewilliamson8526]

working on 5 minibikes ,have one up and the next one 75 percent the others are in various stages of completion going to put them in a box trailer and take them to family get togethers and race Have to say the 212 preditor is a strong eng bought two for the bikes put a pipe on the one running and runs good . All so have a durabuilt 7 hp that i will be putting on one, had good luck with there 16 on a long tail.

Hey Grant you have a great Chanel.Everyones mini bike is unique.Im always in my garage making stuff for my kids to ride.

[@KartFab]

Thats what its all about.

[@deafduckracing2462]

You are always doing great videos. This one was no exception. Mike Hughes has also been a huge help for us. #DeafDuckRacing We are tying to plan a trip to come race w/ TOMB in 2021. Hopefully they will also come to one of our races in FL. Currently something in the works for Spring of 2021, and already on the books for Feb. 27th at the Bull Ring in Ocala, FL.

[@amyethington8459]

Love your vids man

[@lazyboy91113]

Amazing videos. Love the channel.

[@drakrazerclaw5146]

I look forward to riding with you again, currently I'm working on a restomod Thunderbird for TOMB racing. Check out my posts about it on the group's Facebook page, swing arm, hydraulic brakes, TAV, and a list of other parts. One question I do have is. Is there a way to reduce the play in-between the lower tubes and the upper fork assembly, like maybe copper tubing? I'm growing attached to the springer look, but I don't like the feel when turning.

[@cottonrobinson2724]

Separate Question do happen to have a list of enduro mini bike 100mile, 200 or 300 mile races?

[@cottonrobinson2724]

I confidently understand that pushing a 212cc upwards if not beyond 24hp my question is what about the bigger blocks 420cc ,390, 670cc is there a class for those to be raced? Or is it just the small block big upgrades? Also wanted to say thank you for passing your knowledge along and especially the quality hikes on your channel. Between your channel and few others, such as RBG and C&c ( yes second “c” I intentionally made smaller) has assured me as to my big dreams on a mini bike. I personally use mine as a “ work horse” on my ranch using it to round up Llamas ( most of which are not tamed to humans or human touch, as the her I acquired from a elderly woman whom had a rescue for abused llama’s) So from open range, gravel pits, borrow ditches. Yes I can rope and crack a whip while @ full throttle!! pretty much where ever they go after and round them back thru gates and behind fences, biggest danger is Badger holes under taller grass that quick to swallow a 20x7-10 and even quicker to throw an unsuspecting me over the handlebars. Now that you have my “Mini History” I am purchasing parts to swap over to a 420cc as my Ranch is @ 9000feet in the Colorado Rockies. It currently is taking some pretty tricky ridiculous riding to round up due to mini bike top speed on Coleman 200 w/ govener delete and straight piped and built my own air intake. To have most effective top & bottom end as for extreme hill climbs as also need to out power the lofty legs of the weird footed Llama that currently outruns my top speed up and down hill , and only foot I have over them is my past playing linebacker in football as well as shooting billiards, by means of projecting my angles and cutting off according to line of said llama. I am going with a Comet 40 series and will switch to a 44 mag once original 40 driver burns up. My question is gear selection I understand that 12g front is ideal however hard to come by a comet brand with 41 420 etc chain most are # 35 and I already experience enough in field chain retention, chain slip issues and would rather use a 41 chain which leaves me with 40 series torq a verter tav2 with 10gear front. This being said I was thinking a 54 rear sprocket as I know the front will cause a drastic slowdown with a 60T. What is your opinion and potential for the speed ratio calculators I have used online to be incorrect. What top speed should I expect and need for torque through the hills would a different size really suite better for the rear sprocket? Thank you- Cotton @ Broken Arrowhead Ranch

[@KartFab]

Depends on weight and other factors. As a general rule of thumb. small block tav2 gear for 25-28 mph at 3600 rpm. Big block 40 series gear for 40 mph at 3600 rpm. Can’t go wrong in most cases with those numbers

[@ahnurmom_187]

What about for go karts? (Offroad and track)

[@KartFab]

There are those as well. I don't belong to any kart clubs or race them.

[@frankabbate1695]

Somebody got the clap..Let's make it clap..Lmfao

[@leswallis8158]

I live in Memphis Tennessee & want to know of any mini bike clubs or meets here

[@KartFab]

Check out red beards garage

[@ahnurmom_187]

Can you do a video on midas ever since it flipped over

[@KartFab]

Sure I’ll be restoring him to his former glory

[@jacobsebastien3910]

I only run Tillotson Engines 💪😏

[@stevewilliamson8526]

[@MrArturoDominguez]

Stock coleman

[@tacticoolcommando7305]

They would get smoked out there

[@KartFab]

maybe in outlaw, but not stock class. Stock class is really fun because you never know who will win and its cheap to get in.

"Excited" Word Drop at 14 seconds in. Not bad, but saying "super excited" (instead of "real excited") reaps more bonus points and ensures your title as a True KZbinr. Leave me a comment down below. Edit: 1 more "excited" drop at 1:17

[@WorldsBestWatcher]

@3:18 Elvis-The-Pelvis lives! Well, that could be his brother Enis.
