You know, the Mb200 does have rear pegs which makes it more like a dirt bike. It also makes cornering feel more stable and makes it way better for jumping/riding wheelies and you can stand up for rough terrain and goin over obstacles. You'd be amazed at how much better you can ride and correct the bike when standing up goin through rough/difficult terrain. I used to ride dirt bikes when I was a kid so the front pegs feel really weird to me. Using the rear pegs just feels better all round and also puts my feet under me more to catch myself if I need to. Only problem I have is now that I have installed stage 1 kits, the air filter prevents us from using the rear pegs making our bike's less enjoyable to ride.. tryin to figure somethin out until I can put aftermarket carb set ups on our bikes. Thank you for the video as I have been very curious on the size difference between to two bikes. For some reason everyone be too afraid to try out the mb200's when they come over so need to get something less intimidating to ride for family n friends like a moto or coleman lol

It's got more torque and power down low and across the mid range spectrum. The Cat can handle more flow but with a 212r head......😏. It's all what you want.

@fatbuddycat3 жыл бұрын
That's normal for a torque converter to provide some of that sensation. When you let completely off the throttle it should smoothly disengage the driver as the rpm drops. There are a lot of tricks and even routine maintenance that can keep even the stock unit running smoothly. My personal experience is that on most motors you can find a better spring combination that works for your mini bike rather than jump to any conclusions or try a super 30 series such as a Torkzilla or Juggernaut. Every bike I own is on a torque converter, 79cc up to 223.
