Our street bike powered lawn mower is finished! In today's episode, our Suzuki GS450cc lawn mower (basically it's a 450cc go kart) gets painted, we build a custom muffler to fit under the hood and in front of the engine, we fit an intake pod on it to get the engine running better, and we take it to the drag strip to see how fast our racing lawn mower build is in the 1/8th mile!

Try Jeremy's razors instead 😂

[@dbomber69]

You could have made a canister muffler like they do for snowmobiles. Could have had the exhaust come out the side and go up like a tractor at a tractor pull. And then add one of those propane flame thrower kits for exhausts. That would be one hell of a lawn mower!

[@gfrankum63]

I've used Harry's for awhile, very satisfied with the quality, and they're reasonably priced too!

[@joeldunsmore5159]

I find a beard only does one thing for me. makes me look old!!

[@dustinmiller7278]

Doing what I've dreamed of doing since I was 11

[@bradleyj.fortner2203]

When I was 12 I found an old moped for $30 at a garage sale. I talked my mom into letting me buy it and that started my family on our "biker" journey. Dad ended up on a Harley, I ended up on a CB500 chopper, and mom tried to ride a CL350. But, a week after I brought home that old moped, dad had a shiny used GS450 sitting in the driveway. He didn't have it long before he upgraded to a GS650. But, he always said how that 450 was the prettiest "rice burner" he ever owned (It was the '90s). To this day, I still have the old man's Harley and the CL350 that was originally bought for my mom.

[@southtexasspecials175]

Awesome man. Ride on

[@hammerT2997]

Hell yeah man!! I got my dad's Electra glide when he got a trike. Stay safe brother

[@jerellawson2426]

Great story, told very well.

[@imagineaworld]

Ayyy the cb500 i love that bike that was my buddys first ever bike. his dad rode and built harleys in the army during vietnam. He ended up selling it to a young kid and him and his dad ended up completely decking out the bike. They would send my buddy updates whenever they did something big like paint or chrome. Turned out to be a very nice motorcycle.

[@masjuggalo]

I was given a cb750 chopper. Laced wheels 4" over fork z bars... I unloaded it at a buddies place and a hr later someone asked if I would take $1500. I kinda regret selling it

[@shiftymiata]

This is definitely one of my favorite builds you guys have ever done, so glad you kept the patina!!

[@peterherrington3300]

Only John would consider painting that aged tinwork bright blue 😅😅

[@MayheM_72]

I say keep that sweet patinaa!

patina is best

[@towgaumer]

Hit it with clear

[@CarsandCameras]

This build turned out SWEET! Can't wait to take it on a circuit track!

[@majorrev8690]

This is one of my favorite projects of yours. It looks mean, sounds mean, and runs good enough for now. Yall can always make it faster. Job well done team!

[@jamesfox2857]

a little filming Trick , @ around -ish @--4:51-- through @--5:43-- = To Remove Unwanted Glare use Side Shades on Camera to Block Backlight , as That is What is Causing That , reflective light From Behind the Camera = Or Just Off The Side of Facing Front Lens , Usually a Simple Piece of Cardboard Will Suffice enough till you find Something More Permanent = Hope This Helps = Also Works in Low Lit Areas / Conditions ! which May Consist of Placing Such Further Out From Camera / Lens 1- , but a Close enough blockade Just Out of Site of Forward facing Lens Can Have a Great Affect of Stopping Film Glare , or more so Lens Glare .

[@jamesfox2857]

Looks like Ike Got Hungry after Building That Muffler

[@chesterossa]

Where is y’all’s shop located? Love the content!

[@BigTexBlake]

So, the cheap sprockets, where from? Lol

[@desertdenizen6428]

I have owned a 1980 GS 450s since 1980 and am in the process of bringing it back to life. I don't know why yours has only 1 carburetor. Did I miss an episode? Anyway, I love all your episodes and enjoy your creativity.

[@SchoolforHackers]

Yeah, I worked at a Suzuki shop in 1980, and confirm: they had two carbs. Don’t recognize this setup at all.

[@immrnoidall]

Oh man, that sounds awesome when he stomped on it that first time.

[@craiggiles8156]

Exhausts should go straight up through the hood with rain flaps on the top 👍

[@amd65ak47]

I even watch the painting in this and I'm glad cuz I was thinking patina right off the back cuz of how the rear fenders and hood look on this cart I'm glad you kept a classic looking like a classic.

[@cthoroughman]

Love that you cleared over the OG finish.

[@dominoefxxx]

Ike's "A Night At The Roxbury" hair gets me every time!

[@HighDefBNG]

Charles' vision is always so clear. Loved that plug Ike!

[@carlossenos980]

Great choice keeping the patina!

[@TimberTrainer]

That steering linkage is genius.

[@michaelcrebbin7328]

Lol love the muffler holes boys improvise to get the goal achieved love watching you guys do your thing 🥰🥰🥰

[@jacobbreazeale1816]

It sounded great going down the track!

[@oikkuoek]

If you'd drop the rear sprocket size to around 30, you could start with 1st and pull gears all the way down the track.

[@thunderpants645]

I was thinking 49 or 42, but you're correct.

[@oikkuoek]

@@thunderpants645 40 is still a bit much for that rear tyre, but not that far off. somewhere between 40 and 30 would be the sweet spot.

[@Greg1096]

​@@oikkuoek I'm betting he was staying pretty low in the rpm range of that thing, might not have a lot more MPH in it but I bet it could get there a lot quicker revving the gears out farther

[@hunterdan2002]

​@@Greg1096 they're geared way too low, dropping to a smaller sprocket would easily net them a lot more mph, and I bet they'd dip into the 9s or 8s in the 1/8. That tire is so small compared to what it was pushing on a bike.

[@oikkuoek]

@@Greg1096 The pass was on full blast. It won't rev any higher unless the pod filter is changed to a free flowing airbox. Even then the single carb setup restricts the airflow significantly. And that "muffler".. No hope getting past 8K.

[@davidgerard5292]

In the early ‘60’s I raced go karts. We ran McCulloch engines. We had about a 3” tall velocity stack on the carburetor. We used a patch cut from one of my mothers nylon stocking over the velocity stack held on with rubber bands. It was our homemade air cleaner. Worked great. We financed our race team with a paper route and taking empty soda bottles back to stores for the deposit. It’s amazing what a couple 12 year olds can do when they put their minds to it.

[@jackskellingtim1848]

As somebody that currently has a Suzuki gs650g I'm very excited about this video

[@bucktownpsd1590]

I love this build. I think it should be called the Drag Rat.

[@EJ-74]

Love the patina look 👌 Awesome build guys 👍✌️

It's so exciting to see yall back at the drag strip

[@Hitycooking]

[@peterchristlieb]

Gentlemen, this is by far the coolest looking build yet and I love that you used an old and overlooked bike's motor for power. All those twins and small 4s were amazing in their own right. Charles works his ass off as usual, I hope you really love what you're doing and realize the opportunity that you have here is something most of us will never get.

[@darploin5071]

I was questioning the gloss clear coat until you got it on the lawn mower it looks pretty good

[@pollyg562]

the footage from Isaac's helmet was amazing, shows its a lot faster in person than it looks from the stands, love'n the build

[@stephenjenkins8808]

This has to be one of my favorite builds. Second to the Ducarti!

[@theodoredugranrut8201]

We were just thinking of a two into one comings out the front side like a tractor. Could be the farmer in my head. Central California watching

[@Buck1954]

I'm very glad that y'all clear coated the original paint. Looks really great! That was a great run for the "lawnmower". Looking forward to whatever y'all are doing with the rail.

[@nastbaster]

I got scared when they were talking about sanding and painting

[@joescott803]

Only concern I’d have is the cylinders fighting each other and wiping the lobes off the cam. I did that when trying to build a manifold for a 454 big block

[@SchoolforHackers]

Holy crap, didn’t know that could happen!

[@joescott803]

@@SchoolforHackers yeah it can get costly

[@kah337]

For some reason this build really tickles my fancy! I really want to build one now! Awesome content for sure gentlemen!

[@darellsimons2687]

First ever lawnmower on the strip that's a trophy 🏆

[@Cryingformylife]

Great vid! I hope that the new rail content you guys have coming up is for the Dirt rail! I can't wait to see more of it!

[@caseyfreeman3994]

That's an awesome build! Hey it's been 15 mins and no rail cart content yet lol

[@matthewherard3297]

Absolutely freaking love great job guys

[@nilejuneau1972]

I lile how you guys just went and made a sick muffler set up looks awsome

[@Goatee_yay]

Pro tip: when cutting radii (on your sticker) use nail scissors. They make a smooth radii!

[@kasuraga]

needs a taller final for sure. Bet that thing could easily do 70+ in the 1/8th. I love the look of this thing

[@RmDC24]

@14:18, grandest entrance by Ike, only to the fact he had an Arizona tea. Drink of champions, cheers 🎉 🤣

[@RattleCanCustoms]

Dang…..we’re gonna have to build a mower cart now 😂

[@mr1pearl]

Absolutely dig the rat rod paint scheme 👍 🏁

Very clean build guys. 👌

Jeremy’s razors is where it’s at!!

[@jhawk1985]

Great job guys on the Zero Turn. The paint and graphics look great

[@rcclassiccrawlers4368]

It turned out better than I thought it would but that steering linkage is….. unique for lack of a better word. But it works.

[@Robert-ni6ut]

The clear coat patina paint job was the right choice for the build looks awesome keep up the good work guys 👍

Happy to be comment 300 !!!!! Great build liking the 450 🔥🔥

Man that was exciting took me back to my racing days. Thanks guys

Two thumbs up for Charles making the stickers symmetrical on the body. This type of quality control separates us from the rest of the animals.

keep putting out great videos like this one, you guys are awesome

Now add twin vertical chrome stacks with tractor style flaps on top

The lead in to the Harry's ad was hilarious! The build is awesome! I love watching this channel!

[@wildcard5555]

dammit, I commented WAY(inserted at the end) before the end of the video. . . on point with the original patina! LOL with the RH sticker! And, I want to know what the heck the project is when you are putting the exhaust together. Man, I commented WAY too early, lol. What a beast on the strip! How do I get to work for you guys????

[@RearEngineShop]

Such a cool build guys. I love it.

[@SharkysGarageRCandMore]

Great choice to clear coat. To stop the paint on paint action on the opening hood. Stick 2 washers inside between the 2 painted surfaces each side, then the washers will rotate on each other and give you a tolerance clearance on the painted surfaces.....

[@ghomerhust]

man that turned out epic! im glad you decided to just clear coat that great old paint, it looks seriously good.

[@kennymyer3292]

That is the coolest lawnmower i have ever seen

[@prophez23]

Thank goodness you guys decided to go with the original patina. It's a beautiful rat-rod. With the right gearing I bet you can get 80-100mph out of it. Throw on some super grippy slicks and run it down the track.

[@larryfriesenhahn4947]

Make some side pipes along the outer side of the nerf bars!

Looks fantastic!

[@Thomas-fo9zu]

Lot of fun, tks for sharing!

[@ShutterUp]

that thing is freaking great!!! Love it.

[@alexharshman7025]

Well, there’s one thing that I keep thinking about and have been for a few years. About 15 years ago my father bought an 80’s Suzukis gs 650 from a neighbor (they called it a “low slinger” and I think that was just an random term for them). What I find perplexing is that it had four spark plugs like a 4 cylinder, and the biggest thing was there was no chain or belt, it was shaft driven. Might not have been the fastest flat out but the torque and acceleration was incredible for what it was

[@SchoolforHackers]

Actually those were damn sweet bikes.

[@wtfdude5738]

great build fellas

[@MrMadhousedave]

what a little ripper looks awesome with paint

[@pennz69]

Gonna need a lawn mower ornament to go with my dragster ornaments.

Oh. My. God!!!!! I am soooooooooooo glad you guys left it patina'd. I was yelling at my screen when you said you were going to paint it🤣

Ok y'all guys are awesome like I said before thought racing lawnmower wouldn't be fun , but these videos are fun to watch.
