This is a bit of an old vid, but I just wanted to say for Y'all in the comments saying "get a real bike" This is a real bike. This ain't no little 49cc Scoot or 60cc moped. This is a good learners motorcycle, it's standard/manual, reaches good speed etc, not everyone can just hop on a 450-650-1000cc as their first bike, it's stupid. Plus what if you just go to work and back on the thing, or wanna leave the car and go for a cruise, not everyone is an adrenaline junkie, there's beginners and people just starting out too, if you ain't got advice to help on a vid like this just keep your ignorance to yourself, cmon.
These bikes are so easy to work in.. your problem is the main jetbin the carb.. you have a small jet for idle & a main jet for revs.. your main jet is clogged. Easy fix
Bike is running great now...does 75mph and so fun to ride...just sold it for $1900 and using that as down payment for my 2017 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Custom
Its called vapor lock you have to get air to the gas tank there is a vacume pedcoc that gets stuck you can find it by following the tubes coming from the gas tank you can pretty much remove the tube from the pedcoc and you will be fine
I removed/adjusted the evap system. Running great now even though I just sold it for $1900 and using that as down payment for my 2017 Vulcan 900 Custom
Thanks for the info dude I'm looking to start riding and I thought this would be a great starter bike but after seeing this video made me think twice,but I'm glad it's a easy fix
Sounds like that thing is really giving you a hard time. I seriously hope I don't run into these same issues. Glad you didn't have to walk it back home.
Me too!...lol. It runs good except for these sputtering issues...and stalls...something is going on and I need to figure it out soon. I would like to take it on longer trips but that's out of the question for now.
My bike is only 125cc and it gets up to 65mph no problem...I'm 6'3" 210lbs...and it's still in its break in period. Remember to subscribe if you haven't already.posting new videos with giveaways to follow...Thanks again!
Salaam (peace) Hitman, I'm sorry things didn't work out for you. I also noticed that (2) variations or more of this same bike are out there. Mine was full -sized and jet black. I'm 6'3" and BELIEVE ME when I tell you, I'm a big guy with long legs but had plenty of room. That was not including the room for the passenger. I couldn't help but also noticing that yours appeared to be one of the 3/4 sized bikes with 16" rims and a dull greyish hue. I could be wrong but some of the bikes I saw with the same name were greyish 3/4 sized bikes and even had manual gauges. Mine was not; 53" wheelbase, digital dash, full-size, extremely fast take off--did not accelerate like a scooter, very high off of the ground. I had to lift my leg high to get it over the rear seat. To all of the nasty mouthed haters, if you had half a brain, you'd "KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.". If you guys don't know the difference between a Motorcycle and a Sports Moped-- you need to go look it up. 50cc--200cc is Scooter and Sports Moped territory and all foul mouths are not welcomed here. If you don't have anything positive to contribute, then SHUT UP!!!! This Moped's comfort zone is ~45mph (+/-10), it will do 55. With low level upgrades, 55mph (+/-10)= 65 mph absolute maximum unless rebuilt. This is a great achievement for a MOPED!!!!!!
If you had a new carburetor installed, you must rejet it to a perfect air fuel mixture, had the same problem with mine when I changed my motorcycles carburetor, also check and make sure your tank vent isn't clogged, the vent hole should be on you tank cap it's a tiny hole
Your engine is brand new, did you allow your engine to be broken-into, yet? Or else, it can stall nor other complications to the piston. (You can cause some early permanent damages to your piston ring for high revving longer than 2 seconds before breaking into the engine.) -- Are you using the 10W40 motor oil? Or if you want some protection, use the 20W40). Start with the synthetic 20W40 castral for breaking in the engine. -- Adjust the carburetors ratio of the fuel because of your weather air mixture will differ in the engine's behavior on each season, or else it'll destabilize into a sputter. (You will need to find a compatible octane that your engine likes, 82-104 is OK. Look for the most minimal backfire as possible, but it'll be most noticeable at the 93 octane and above.) -- Anything above 49cc is a real motorcycle by the law.
Dude its a carb'd 125 its not that hard to figure out....prob a intake leak, check ur plug if its burnt im prob right.or possibly stuck float/gummed jets.
That’s exactly what I was thinking! I have one and it’s so annoying and embarrassing having to pull over In traffic let alone dangerous! Definitely gonna upgrade my spark plug go ahead and put my other battery energizer battery in and see how it does! 🙏😎 these are pretty good lil cheap starter bikes! I love ❤️ mine! Best decision of 2021 other than getting vaccinated 💪☺️ y’all stay safe!
Hey man love the fact you are keeping up with the vids on this bike. I'm in NY and I'm scared the dmv won't recognize the bike in their system for registration. What state did you register in and did you have any problems registering. Also do you think the stuttering has anything to do with your changing of parts? Please respond, I have been considering getting one and wanted to make the purchase in a few days
I registered it in Indiana. You'll get a title so you shouldn't have a problem registering. You'll need to have a vin inspection done before you go to dmv. This can be done by calling local police or sheriff's dept. Usually costs $5. Also I used the progressive ap on my phone to put insurance on it, $75 for the year. The bikes performance problems are not from me painting the rims, adding decals, or by adding grips. The bike I received is just having a few issues and should be good to go pretty soon.
brett henson yeah I usually get a sweet deal with progressive over the phone, but glad to know I can use app. So you are saying it's worth the purchase?
MAV Computer Bike Run ...I'm looking to buy a new one but they are All the sealed caps...are there vented caps available? Is that what you are suggesting? Can you provide a link? I disconnected the vent line that comes from my tank and goes to the evap canister. My bike is running good now but I'd still like to check out some new tank caps
I just bought my first learner bike its 125 cc and i have same issue my bike wont go more than 28 mph idk whats the issue is the carburetor or spark plug anybody knows whats the issue thanks
Check out my other video/videos and subscribe for your chance to win a set of customTAYLOR33 REFLECTIVE RIM TAPE. ruclips.net/video/JX4q03I-fog/видео.html
Yep it is. A real bike will kill your pocket when it comes to parts and upgrades. I have the Boom Ninja SR9 125cc and it look just like the venom X22. Parts and up grades are super cheap for the replica bikes. I just bought a brand new high performance carb for mine and it ran me 19 dollars and works amazing. It's worth buying for sure plus my insurance is only 210 dollars for a entire year..only 2 payments of $105.00 a year where as a new bike could run ya up as high as 3000 a year depending on the bike.
Hey man, hope all is well. Sooo, I know this is a dead horse being beat, bu'ut, I treated the evap system like you explained and like I've seen/read elsewhere but having issues wi/ it cutting out before it gets fully turned over. I remembered you said you might make a video on this. Is there any chance that might happen? Not sure if you sold it yet or not. Thanks in advance!
designDevelop ....yes, I sold mine over the summer....too many issues. It was running pretty good at the time I sold it. Can you try riding your bike with a quarter choke? See if that helps....unless you've tried it already.
Right on, I hear you. When I attempt to start the bike, when it turns over it cuts out pretty quickly. I'm sure some of that is my choke, yeah, but there's a very distinct sound that it makes when it cuts off; sounds like something metal clicks and drops, not broken sounding or anything. I hope that makes sense lol. Just didn't know if I should be concerned or not. I'm thinking not but figured I'd ask.
I just went through all these comments, all I saw was you saying you fixed it and it runs great, nothing about what the issue was, can you tell me asap? Just bought this bike for a steal I know it has to be a simple fix. If I turn the choke on while riding it is fine, but it won't idle with choke on. Weird deal. Lol lmk please!
I basically eliminated the carbon canister....folded over the line coming from carb to canister and taped it...then removed top line going to canister from has tank....also I changed the plug...drained the gas tank and put in fresh 93 octane....changed oil too....you can also adjust the idle screw on your carb
Hey jus got 125cc from venom an I put gas connected the batter turn the knobes where they should b started it it ran for maybe 2 min before it started snowing from the engine the my rpm adjustment is off. What do I do
Hi been watching your videos for a few weeks now. Would you recommend this bike? I really love the look and the price point is amazing for new bike. I just haven't decided on this or used 250 ninja somewhere.
Well, I'm not touching this one, lol. I've had my troubles but tech support had definitely answered all my questions and offered a number of solutions. That being said it's a good bike for the price. Fun to ride, fun to mod. I'll be upgrading in a year or two so this was a good starter bike. Easy to register and it will be very easy to take the dmv test for my motorcycle endorsement, because it's so easy to handle.
Awesome yeah I am going to pull the trigger on getting this bike it will be my Christmas present lol. Thanks for the response back appreciate it...You made my decision easier...
I just cleaned the carbs good, adjusted the valves, set the mixture screw just perfect. Drove the bike took the bike out for 10 seconds in rain and the bike is doing this. What could be the problem? How’d you fix yours?
As everyone is bashing you cause their jealous and not helpful.. did you figure out why it was doing this? What was the issue and fix needed? Riding good now?
Hey hitman I have no experience on a motorcycle but on my brothers 125cc hellcat and I thought it was awesome I want something to get to my work an back that's only 12 miles back and forth and rarely 20 miles and highest speed beside interstate is 55 mph is the decent for just a to b that decent speed? And I'm 5ft9 would this be a good fit really considering it
my xtrs smokes all cbr 125s and yzr125s in my area 90mph aint bad with a few mods a tricks from some hp riders and for the price there a good bike all about maintenance
Hello Hitman, I am a Tech for Venom and just wondering if you got the issues worked out for your bike. Let me know if you need assistance in the future.
I have a 2004 cb600f with new an bigger jets put in it an hotter plugs. Mine boggs after the bike is warmed up. Curious what u think my issue might b. I took it to a shop said he fixed it. Ran for 2 days never over 70mph an started bogging again. Im at a loss. Anything tips would be greatly appreciated
Hi I would like to know how long after you had your x-22 did this problem start occurring an have you found a solution for it yet? I recently bought this bike myself and would like to be prepared for if his kinda thing happens too mine thanks in advance sincerely Sean Palmer.
I just ordered a 2017 x18 motorcycle it's arriving today from venom motor sports it's a 50cc so basically a gas powered moped/scooter that literally looks like a motorcycle as I don't have a license so I took that route I also have a 100cc big bore kit I can put on it as well I'm located in nova Scotia attending college I will update you on how my bike works through the week as for your bike you might want to check over any parts you replaced and/Or mods you put on it that could be an issue to I hope you get it fixed and running well drive safe talk soon cheers
So the site is good to order then cause I've been so skeptical about it so they legit then so I can order mine cause I really been wanting to get one sins I sold my Kawasaki ninja 600 last year so I wanted to get something easy to slow down.
Salaam (peace) Hitman, This is Al-Zamil and I wanted to comment on a few points regarding these problems you're having. These small displacement bikes are not designed to perform like the bigger bikes. 50cc to 199cc are really mopeds, they just don't have the pedals. The older bikes from the 70's were 125's & 150's but with different engine configurations. They had 14-18 bhp. This is the power to move you to realistic 65 mph. Nowadays for this "Sports Moped" or "Moped Motorcycle" as they should be properly called, it's only 7.9 hp and if you look at the little yellow sticker on the engine case (right side of the moped-if you're standing behind it- next to grey oil dipstick), it says maximum speed 75kph or something similar. Sir 75 kph is 47 mph---about the top speed of a sports moped. 50 mph is ok---beyond that PRAY!!! I had one back in February 2017 but had electric problems. I'm on the hunt for another one. A couple of things I've learned about really making these bikes perform better was to change the CDI box (because it limits the revving capacity (emissions purposes). Because it's California legal, that really puts a clamp on the performance due to stricter emissions standards. If your state doesn't require emissions testing, the general upgrade is CDI, plug, wire, air filter, Lucas oil treatment, synthetic oil, bigger main jet for your carburetor. This should get you 3-5 horsepower and 5-15mph higher. Other upgrades include rebuilding the top end to about 232 cc displacement and these big block kits will avg 20 hp and 80-90 mph. However it's always a good practice to contact someone who either builds custom bikes or works in the parts department for moped/motorcycle parts. Google "kidnmeparts", they help match components to get a balanced build. They can probably pinpoint your problem. Had I known, I could have access that resource. There's also your insurance. Check your policy, if it's progressive or similar, just call them up and tell them you are having mechanical failure on a brand new moped. They will bring a tow truck, tow it to the nearest place that fixes bikes, then pay those dudes to fix it. It the Roadside assistance portion of your policy. Man I really really wish I had read the fine print. It would have saved my contract. Hope this helped, Al-Zamil
Al-Zamil Yamatazu ...bike was running great when I sold it 2weeks ago for $1900...it was a fuel delivery issue...I basically eliminated the charcoal canister
Well you need to take the valve cover off and ajust these two bolts on each valve to .05 of an inch with a feeler gauage. The measurement is inbtween the valve and the rocker arm. This is good because on chineese bikes they are often set wayyy to tight which can result in engine failure after as short as 1000 miles. I would also make sure the bike is not running to lean after you do this. They often also have the bikes set to run lean which can cause engine failure and the reason they do this is because it uses less gas that way and in turn passes emmisions easier
I almost spent $1600 on a Venom. Stopped. I figure just put this money towards something of greater quality like a Benelli TNT 135 or a Honda product. Unfortunately these bikes use inferior parts.
I love this bike. I got mine from a site called powersportsmax.com and I only paid about $1421.00 for it. I ride it every day and haven't had a single problem out of it. Runs great and upgrades are very affordable. Great bike to just relax chill and enjoy the ride on. It's not a speed demon and I like that about it. Very easy to ride and keeps up with other traffic no problem.
TK Billy ...I'm selling mine....and spending a little more for a non- straight off the boat-Japanese bike. These things are nothing but problems and the companies that sell them are all the same...they suck and are out to scam you from your money!
TheHitmanHenson Venoms are from canada you fucknut all it take is you actoully taking care of your shit, take care of it, clean it, and service it every now and then it would be fine
Aaron Bailey "fucknut"? Wth, lol....they order them in bulk from China...in fact, when they sent me my new carb, it was delivered from China via DHL...my bike is running great now...I'm selling it Friday for $1700 after my endorsement test. Then I'm buying a new bike.
They may break down prematurely, but for the average entry-level rider it is good to know how to repair your motorcycle. These bikes will teach you to check on all your parts before you go riding, and teach you how to repair certain parts of a motorcycle. Still buying one :)
Apollo RX Adventures ...I ended up kinking the vacuum line from carb and taping it. Then removed the vent line from gas tank to charcoal canister. Seems to run better when I do this.
TheHitmanHenson I asked because I hooked up my evap to my air box and now my bike bogs. Come to find out the canister just stays open at the end. I will unplug it from the air box today.
You can try what I did....find the vacuum line that comes from the carb and heads straight up to the canister...double it over and tape it. Then follow the vent hose that comes down from the left side of the gas tank...not the fuel line but the vent line. You can follow this line. It should pass through some coupler or a black plastic thing that's zip tied up under the tank. Follow it to the canister. It should be the top most line that is on the charcoal canister. You can just remove it and let it hang. Then tape the nozzle on the canister that you just removed this line from....just some electrical tape will do. Maybe I'll post a video of how I did mine.
brett henson It didn't start bogging until I hooked up the canister. On my canister it says in and out. And on the in side there was nothing connected to it. On the bottom of my air box there was a nipple with nothing connected to it. So I assumed that's where the canister connected to. I went to the hardware store and bought 6 inches or so of tube and hooked the 2 together. I come across a video last night. The canisters are open on the bottom side nothing connected to them. They are for venting the vapors in the gas tank when the gas expands due to heat. Then the evap puts it back in the carb for cumbustion. The video is on the venom Canada RUclips channel. Evap exposed. Check it out
I also replaced the fuel filter because it came installed backwards. I bought a new one and installed the correct way. If you think of the filter looking like it has a plastic hat on it...well, the hat part, larger side of filter, should be on the left side of your fuel line...you can even see the arrow on the fuel filter. The arrow indicates fuel flow. It should flow from the tank to the carb....so the arrow should face left to the carb not "right" to the gas tank. Then I emptied my gas tank and refilled with 93 octane. You can empty the tank by first shutting off the gas on right side of bike then turn the gas tank/reserve switch to face the "middle" of full and reserve...then unhook your fuel line and let it empty into an empty gas canister and use a funnel to help guide the gas into the empty gas canister...then refill with fresh gas..the highest octane you can find. I also changed my spark plug. Took it to my auto parts store so they could match it up to the correct NGK plug. I changed the oil as well. I sometimes still run the bike full time with quarter choke and it runs like a champ....after I've been riding for awhile I turn choke off but you might still find that running full time with quarter choke is just fine and might always need to be done...no big deal.
Why is this trash?? Can someone explain? And im a noobie, keep that in mind.... i thought this was some real shit so i was on my way to buy it before i saw that everyone thought it was trash.... EXPLAIN PLS
These Chinese motorcycles that are popping up are cool and very affordable. The biggest problem is the carburetors. Easiest thing to do is buy a mikuni carb for $40, jet is to 115. Do an air box mod to get more air. If 115 is to much use the 110 needle. All fixed. www.mikuni.com/
because ignorant jealous people like you are always in the comments spewing bullshit from their keyboard, he got a 125 street bike because its a legal road vehicle able to reach 70-75 mph which is well over most speed limits in place on the road. meaning he can ride it where ever he wants and still ride in traffic. is it illogical for him to buy a cheap bike to have fun on every now and then? No, whats illogical is the fact that you think the vehicle is useless when in fact its not. Thousands of people buy them and thousands of people are happy with them. why would someone with barley and experience go and buy a 600-1000 cc bike capable of doing 170+ when they will only be doing the speed limit anyhow? Now thats illogical!
Hova Mane .... ignorant and jealous ??? Of what ?? My daughter rides a 250!!! Maybe you're so upset cause you can't handle anything bigger than one of these pocket bikes...
Charles DBeats NO, that's a death trap. If they get on the road and have them type of issues they'd be in real trouble and get ran over. Plus the whole point of being visible for safety is reduced when the bike is so tiny and sitting low
Hey asshole maybe this is his first bike and he wants to learn how to get better at writing something faster and doesn't want to waste the money and buying a brand new one have you ever thought about that dumbfuck 😀
I think the problem is that he didn't break in the bike properly. He has 140 on the dash and he's running it at hight revs and high speed. The bike should not be driven like this untill 1,000 miles. You wanna go fast? If you're not first you're last??? Get a bike with a motor 250cc or better.
You have to use a little more choke on that bike that's why it's doing that also if you changed out the spark plugs put the Chinese plugs back in for some reason all them Chinese Motors hate NGK plugs or any other plugs I had the same issues on my x19 put the Chinese plugs back in never had an issue again some days I just had to run a little more choke on my bike and it ran just fine but if the chokes all the way off it spits and sputters a little so I even my choke out with the handlebar and the bike runs Perfect all day I went down to my nearest hardware store and bought an NGK plug the minute I put it in the bike acting funny I don't know if China has a different gapping system to their plugs than what we do or a difference Spark....
This is a bit of an old vid, but I just wanted to say for Y'all in the comments saying "get a real bike" This is a real bike. This ain't no little 49cc Scoot or 60cc moped. This is a good learners motorcycle, it's standard/manual, reaches good speed etc, not everyone can just hop on a 450-650-1000cc as their first bike, it's stupid. Plus what if you just go to work and back on the thing, or wanna leave the car and go for a cruise, not everyone is an adrenaline junkie, there's beginners and people just starting out too, if you ain't got advice to help on a vid like this just keep your ignorance to yourself, cmon.
spot on
100%
Yeah I agree 💯 I have a venom x22gt 250 I'm a beginner and I'm doing pretty good
Yea man I just got the 250cc automatic motorcycle and it's a great starting bike.doesnt matter what anyone else thinks. 3 years later. Lol
Even tho this comment is 5 years old 😅I wanna thank you 🙏🏽 cuz I sure am not an adrenaline junkie I wanna cruise for my therapy. On my mind
Its because you put a KAWASAKI sticker on it you might get permanent damage
that and its not a honda ;)
These bikes are so easy to work in.. your problem is the main jetbin the carb.. you have a small jet for idle & a main jet for revs.. your main jet is clogged. Easy fix
Bike is running great now...does 75mph and so fun to ride...just sold it for $1900 and using that as down payment for my 2017 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Custom
What was the problem
Cody Young what size is motor is it a gy6 short.
Cody not necessarily the main jet crud could just be floating in carb plus the air fuel mixture could be off and the spark plug could be incorrect
brett henson how to fix that? Please let me know
Its called vapor lock you have to get air to the gas tank there is a vacume pedcoc that gets stuck you can find it by following the tubes coming from the gas tank you can pretty much remove the tube from the pedcoc and you will be fine
I removed/adjusted the evap system. Running great now even though I just sold it for $1900 and using that as down payment for my 2017 Vulcan 900 Custom
KadaYah Yisra'el you mean the small plastic tube... That allows gas to go down into the rubber tube
KadaYah Yisra'el can you make a video on how to fix it please I have never owned a motorcycle before
Thanks for the info dude I'm looking to start riding and I thought this would be a great starter bike but after seeing this video made me think twice,but I'm glad it's a easy fix
Bike is running great now.
brett henson I m dealing with same problem and same model. What did you do?
Sounds like that thing is really giving you a hard time. I seriously hope I don't run into these same issues. Glad you didn't have to walk it back home.
Me too!...lol. It runs good except for these sputtering issues...and stalls...something is going on and I need to figure it out soon. I would like to take it on longer trips but that's out of the question for now.
brett henson yeah, I don't think that would be a smart idea just yet. Have you contacted Venom to see if they can be of some assistance?
My bike is only 125cc and it gets up to 65mph no problem...I'm 6'3" 210lbs...and it's still in its break in period. Remember to subscribe if you haven't already.posting new videos with giveaways to follow...Thanks again!
brett henson I'm definitely glad to hear that. We're the same size and I was wondering how fast it would go with me on it
brett henson working on any new vids?
Good deal, glad to hear that you finally made the right choice in selling it, now its someone else's issue......lol
Salaam (peace)
Hitman,
I'm sorry things didn't work out for you. I also noticed that (2) variations or more of this same bike are out there. Mine was full -sized and jet black. I'm 6'3" and BELIEVE ME when I tell you, I'm a big guy with long legs but had plenty of room. That was not including the room for the passenger. I couldn't help but also noticing that yours appeared to be one of the 3/4 sized bikes with 16" rims and a dull greyish hue.

Mine was not; 53" wheelbase, digital dash, full-size, extremely fast take off--did not accelerate like a scooter, very high off of the ground. I had to lift my leg high to get it over the rear seat.
To all of the nasty mouthed haters, if you had half a brain, you'd "KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.".

Yes...engine broken in by the book...running great and just sold it for $1900...made $500 profit! Can't wait for my new bike.
Wow!! Awesome news!
ummmm... you do know that most motorcycles use 25-50 oil right? and its broke in lol not broken into
@@alexandergrimm1195 10w-40 is the recommended oil for these bikes
Lol..... It's running just fine now
Dude its a carb'd 125 its not that hard to figure out....prob a intake leak, check ur plug if its burnt im prob right.or possibly stuck float/gummed jets.
crud could just be floating in carb plus the air fuel mixture could be off and the spark plug could be incorrect
It is the Stator on the bike that is broken or the Cdi, because it does not ignite the right way
Put nitrous on that thing! Or throw some moth balls in the gas tank! Hahaheheee
Not even .. torch that thing as soon as possible … dynamite in gas tank for starters
Sounds like you got some loose fuel lines that's taking it too much air I had to put a few clamps on my bike
Just go mine a week ago keeps going out in me but runs well, what about everyone else I had to push it back home twice already
Put a rag in the gas cap and heat the rag up with a lighter that always fixes any venom bike
sportster davidson 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sounds and looks like the carb was dirty are clogged
I would check spark plugs and ignition packs
That’s exactly what I was thinking! I have one and it’s so annoying and embarrassing having to pull over In traffic let alone dangerous! Definitely gonna upgrade my spark plug go ahead and put my other battery energizer battery in and see how it does! 🙏😎 these are pretty good lil cheap starter bikes! I love ❤️ mine! Best decision of 2021 other than getting vaccinated 💪☺️ y’all stay safe!
Sounds like an intake air leak. Or a carb that needs tuning
Hey man love the fact you are keeping up with the vids on this bike. I'm in NY and I'm scared the dmv won't recognize the bike in their system for registration. What state did you register in and did you have any problems registering. Also do you think the stuttering has anything to do with your changing of parts? Please respond, I have been considering getting one and wanted to make the purchase in a few days
I registered it in Indiana. You'll get a title so you shouldn't have a problem registering. You'll need to have a vin inspection done before you go to dmv. This can be done by calling local police or sheriff's dept. Usually costs $5. Also I used the progressive ap on my phone to put insurance on it, $75 for the year. The bikes performance problems are not from me painting the rims, adding decals, or by adding grips. The bike I received is just having a few issues and should be good to go pretty soon.
brett henson yeah I usually get a sweet deal with progressive over the phone, but glad to know I can use app. So you are saying it's worth the purchase?
Yes...it was worth it. Remember to subscribe if you haven't already. I'll be posting new videos soon with giveaways to follow...Thanks again!
brett henson you is awesome and Thank you so much I was so worried about insurance and stuff
Rekless Musik Buy a used Kwai ninja 250
or a 300. Mucho better from all angles. I owned a 07 Ninja 250 and then a Suzuki 600.
You are running on reserve tank. The arrow should be facing down on the petcock coming down from the tank on the left side of bike
Nope
Pressure in gas tank the gas cap not letting air in get a new one from honda kawasaki ect.
MAV Computer Bike Run ...I'm looking to buy a new one but they are All the sealed caps...are there vented caps available? Is that what you are suggesting? Can you provide a link? I disconnected the vent line that comes from my tank and goes to the evap canister. My bike is running good now but I'd still like to check out some new tank caps
I was going to say the same thing.
I cut it off with a saw saw but you have to be very careful then I added the fender eliminator
You may need to clean carb or upgrade to a bigger mikuni carb vm 26 I'm running one on my 200 purrs nice!!
I just bought my first learner bike its 125 cc and i have same issue my bike wont go more than 28 mph idk whats the issue is the carburetor or spark plug anybody knows whats the issue thanks
First of all you’re in second gear doing 9-15 mph on a low cc bike.
Timing and keep that bike despite what people say they are cheap and fun goon bikes also try tuning the carb.

Is it worth it to get a cheap replica bike and fix it up? Maybe add actual parts or too much of a project?
Yep it is. A real bike will kill your pocket when it comes to parts and upgrades. I have the Boom Ninja SR9 125cc and it look just like the venom X22. Parts and up grades are super cheap for the replica bikes. I just bought a brand new high performance carb for mine and it ran me 19 dollars and works amazing. It's worth buying for sure plus my insurance is only 210 dollars for a entire year..only 2 payments of $105.00 a year where as a new bike could run ya up as high as 3000 a year depending on the bike.
Hey man, hope all is well. Sooo, I know this is a dead horse being beat, bu'ut, I treated the evap system like you explained and like I've seen/read elsewhere but having issues wi/ it cutting out before it gets fully turned over. I remembered you said you might make a video on this. Is there any chance that might happen? Not sure if you sold it yet or not. Thanks in advance!
designDevelop ....yes, I sold mine over the summer....too many issues. It was running pretty good at the time I sold it. Can you try riding your bike with a quarter choke? See if that helps....unless you've tried it already.
Right on, I hear you. When I attempt to start the bike, when it turns over it cuts out pretty quickly. I'm sure some of that is my choke, yeah, but there's a very distinct sound that it makes when it cuts off; sounds like something metal clicks and drops, not broken sounding or anything. I hope that makes sense lol. Just didn't know if I should be concerned or not. I'm thinking not but figured I'd ask.
I just went through all these comments, all I saw was you saying you fixed it and it runs great, nothing about what the issue was, can you tell me asap? Just bought this bike for a steal I know it has to be a simple fix. If I turn the choke on while riding it is fine, but it won't idle with choke on. Weird deal. Lol lmk please!
I basically eliminated the carbon canister....folded over the line coming from carb to canister and taped it...then removed top line going to canister from has tank....also I changed the plug...drained the gas tank and put in fresh 93 octane....changed oil too....you can also adjust the idle screw on your carb
brett henson thanks man I'm going to try that today and see what's up! I'll let you know thanks for the reply.
Same problem as mine.
How you fix the Sputter?
Hey jus got 125cc from venom an I put gas connected the batter turn the knobes where they should b started it it ran for maybe 2 min before it started snowing from the engine the my rpm adjustment is off. What do I do
How did you disconnect the evap emission line? Did you disconnect the tube from the carburetor?
Did you ever figure it out?
Hi been watching your videos for a few weeks now. Would you recommend this bike? I really love the look and the price point is amazing for new bike. I just haven't decided on this or used 250 ninja somewhere.
Well, I'm not touching this one, lol. I've had my troubles but tech support had definitely answered all my questions and offered a number of solutions. That being said it's a good bike for the price. Fun to ride, fun to mod. I'll be upgrading in a year or two so this was a good starter bike. Easy to register and it will be very easy to take the dmv test for my motorcycle endorsement, because it's so easy to handle.
Awesome yeah I am going to pull the trigger on getting this bike it will be my Christmas present lol. Thanks for the response back appreciate it...You made my decision easier...
Cr8zyCarl247 did you buy the bike from,venom? Lmfao. How happy are you with it. How much shit have you replaced to fix it?
Cr8zyCarl247 By all means buy a Ninja 250 or 300. Kawasaki is good quality. The ninja 300 is FI. Older 250’s were carb.
I just cleaned the carbs good, adjusted the valves, set the mixture screw just perfect. Drove the bike took the bike out for 10 seconds in rain and the bike is doing this. What could be the problem? How’d you fix yours?
Old vid but I have a zx9r and having the same trouble did you find a solution? I'm thinking mine is either air flow or carbs but have no clue
My bike did same thing and we did everything they said and it still stopped working
As everyone is bashing you cause their jealous and not helpful.. did you figure out why it was doing this? What was the issue and fix needed? Riding good now?
Right on . All the bashers came here to watch this bike because they want one but can't afford one
Yes.... Running fantastic... I've won moto races across the country
Evap check valve ball probably stuck pull tank remove the check valve venom will tell you the same thing or a dirty carb
Put 91 fuel in it I seen a lot of people doing that see if that helps
I filled it up with 92 octane. Its been running good since I've eliminated the evap system.
How do you eliminate evap systems mines stalls to
@@bretthenson5420 how did u eliminate the evap system? Did u disconnect all the hose lines from the canister and the one on the carburetor?
Hey hitman I have no experience on a motorcycle but on my brothers 125cc hellcat and I thought it was awesome I want something to get to my work an back that's only 12 miles back and forth and rarely 20 miles and highest speed beside interstate is 55 mph is the decent for just a to b that decent speed? And I'm 5ft9 would this be a good fit really considering it
Jesse Cole ....yes...as long as you break it in correctly and don't have any other issues....this should work for you.
TheHitmanHenson one more question jw can it cruise at 60 everyone says 75 but just want something that can atleast go 60+
Carbeurator problem or bad gas..
Bike is running great since installing new carb.
my xtrs smokes all cbr 125s and yzr125s in my area 90mph aint bad with a few mods a tricks from some hp riders and for the price there a good bike all about maintenance
Any issues
Yip maintenance and pre ride prep important
These engines are clones of 70s honda 4 stroke 125 and 229cc engines they are very reliable
And what about the mileage for this bike
Less than 150 km done with that bike... change dhe oil every 250 km untill 1000- 1500. Then you can accelerate like that..
The choke is on
i have an e21 it dose the same thing having checked everthing im convinced its a problem with the evap system did you ever find out what the cause was

Eliminated the canister...put in New carb
Hello Hitman,
I am a Tech for Venom and just wondering if you got the issues worked out for your bike. Let me know if you need assistance in the future.
Yes. Problem was fixed by eliminating canister
I have a 2004 cb600f with new an bigger jets put in it an hotter plugs. Mine boggs after the bike is warmed up. Curious what u think my issue might b. I took it to a shop said he fixed it. Ran for 2 days never over 70mph an started bogging again. Im at a loss. Anything tips would be greatly appreciated
Hi I would like to know how long after you had your x-22 did this problem start occurring an have you found a solution for it yet? I recently bought this bike myself and would like to be prepared for if his kinda thing happens too mine thanks in advance sincerely Sean Palmer.
Did you get it fixed and if so what was the issue as my 125 ninja has started to bogging
I just ordered a 2017 x18 motorcycle it's arriving today from venom motor sports it's a 50cc so basically a gas powered moped/scooter that literally looks like a motorcycle as I don't have a license so I took that route I also have a 100cc big bore kit I can put on it as well I'm located in nova Scotia attending college I will update you on how my bike works through the week as for your bike you might want to check over any parts you replaced and/Or mods you put on it that could be an issue to I hope you get it fixed and running well drive safe talk soon cheers
Sold my bike last week for $1900....headache is over! It was running great after eliminating charcoal canister...it was a fuel delivery issue
brett henson was it a venom bike if not you should check out venom motor sports I'm excited to get mine today
I noticed I had this problem only when I shift too early
Was is a problem with the emission canister?
Check coil cdi turn up the idle a hair
I’m having the exact same problem what was the fix?
New carb.. and eliminated the emission canister
When you got off the bike in the garage it said Kawasaki. This isn't a bd-125cc?
Yes...just added the stickers...it's just a fun little project bike
@@bretthenson5420 Wow, looks authentic then. Great job.
Hi I was thinking on ordering one how long did it take for you to get it and did you fix the issue on it
Took maybe 8 days. Yes, fixed the issue.
So the site is good to order then cause I've been so skeptical about it so they legit then so I can order mine cause I really been wanting to get one sins I sold my Kawasaki ninja 600 last year so I wanted to get something easy to slow down.
@@NewYorican38 dude venom is good it's not eBay
Did you figure out the problem? If so, what did you fix?
Salaam (peace)
Hitman,
This is Al-Zamil and I wanted to comment on a few points regarding these problems you're having. These small displacement bikes are not designed to perform like the bigger bikes. 50cc to 199cc are really mopeds, they just don't have the pedals.
The older bikes from the 70's were 125's & 150's but with different engine configurations. They had 14-18 bhp. This is the power to move you to realistic 65 mph. Nowadays for this "Sports Moped" or "Moped Motorcycle" as they should be properly called, it's only 7.9 hp and if you look at the little yellow sticker on the engine case (right side of the moped-if you're standing behind it- next to grey oil dipstick), it says maximum speed 75kph or something similar. Sir 75 kph is 47 mph---about the top speed of a sports moped. 50 mph is ok---beyond that PRAY!!!
I had one back in February 2017 but had electric problems. I'm on the hunt for another one. A couple of things I've learned about really making these bikes perform better was to change the CDI box (because it limits the revving capacity (emissions purposes). Because it's California legal, that really puts a clamp on the performance due to stricter emissions standards. If your state doesn't require emissions testing, the general upgrade is CDI, plug, wire, air filter, Lucas oil treatment, synthetic oil, bigger main jet for your carburetor. This should get you 3-5 horsepower and 5-15mph higher. Other upgrades include rebuilding the top end to about 232 cc displacement and these big block kits will avg 20 hp and 80-90 mph. However it's always a good practice to contact someone who either builds custom bikes or works in the parts department for moped/motorcycle parts. Google "kidnmeparts", they help match components to get a balanced build. They can probably pinpoint your problem. Had I known, I could have access that resource. There's also your insurance. Check your policy, if it's progressive or similar, just call them up and tell them you are having mechanical failure on a brand new moped. They will bring a tow truck, tow it to the nearest place that fixes bikes, then pay those dudes to fix it. It the Roadside assistance portion of your policy. Man I really really wish I had read the fine print. It would have saved my contract.
Hope this helped,
Al-Zamil
Al-Zamil Yamatazu ...bike was running great when I sold it 2weeks ago for $1900...it was a fuel delivery issue...I basically eliminated the charcoal canister
Does anybody know what kind of light bulbs the x22 takes please?
18watt h1
How much do you pay for the insurance
Frash Gaming $75 a year...I used the progressive app on my phone.
What if you have 5 points on your record?
Okay so do a valve job imeadatly on it
David tropical aquariums ...what does that entail? Bike is running good now but always looking for improvement.
Well you need to take the valve cover off and ajust these two bolts on each valve to .05 of an inch with a feeler gauage. The measurement is inbtween the valve and the rocker arm. This is good because on chineese bikes they are often set wayyy to tight which can result in engine failure after as short as 1000 miles. I would also make sure the bike is not running to lean after you do this. They often also have the bikes set to run lean which can cause engine failure and the reason they do this is because it uses less gas that way and in turn passes emmisions easier
Whats the top speed it says 75mph but im only going like 55-60
Jake Beard these bikes need to be broken in
Willy2big are you saying eventually it will be faster
I almost spent $1600 on a Venom. Stopped. I figure just put this money towards something of greater quality like a Benelli TNT 135 or a Honda product. Unfortunately these bikes use inferior parts.
Nope. It was a fun project and cheap
Is that as fast as this one goes? I saw 59.
Just curious as a first buyer and learner.
Mine reached 72mph
brett henson could u post videos of your I’m looking to buy one
Did you fix it if so what woz it
Yup
I love this bike. I got mine from a site called powersportsmax.com and I only paid about $1421.00 for it. I ride it every day and haven't had a single problem out of it. Runs great and upgrades are very affordable. Great bike to just relax chill and enjoy the ride on. It's not a speed demon and I like that about it. Very easy to ride and keeps up with other traffic no problem.
Did you buy a 900?
Nope. Buying a new Bronco instead
It's probably an air leak dude...
Where can I get one?
TK Billy ...I'm selling mine....and spending a little more for a non- straight off the boat-Japanese bike. These things are nothing but problems and the companies that sell them are all the same...they suck and are out to scam you from your money!
TheHitmanHenson Venoms are from canada you fucknut all it take is you actoully taking care of your shit, take care of it, clean it, and service it every now and then it would be fine
Aaron Bailey "fucknut"? Wth, lol....they order them in bulk from China...in fact, when they sent me my new carb, it was delivered from China via DHL...my bike is running great now...I'm selling it Friday for $1700 after my endorsement test. Then I'm buying a new bike.
They may break down prematurely, but for the average entry-level rider it is good to know how to repair your motorcycle. These bikes will teach you to check on all your parts before you go riding, and teach you how to repair certain parts of a motorcycle. Still buying one :)

Evap system ?
Apollo RX Adventures ...I ended up kinking the vacuum line from carb and taping it. Then removed the vent line from gas tank to charcoal canister. Seems to run better when I do this.
TheHitmanHenson
I asked because I hooked up my evap to my air box and now my bike bogs. Come to find out the canister just stays open at the end. I will unplug it from the air box today.
You can try what I did....find the vacuum line that comes from the carb and heads straight up to the canister...double it over and tape it. Then follow the vent hose that comes down from the left side of the gas tank...not the fuel line but the vent line. You can follow this line. It should pass through some coupler or a black plastic thing that's zip tied up under the tank. Follow it to the canister. It should be the top most line that is on the charcoal canister. You can just remove it and let it hang. Then tape the nozzle on the canister that you just removed this line from....just some electrical tape will do. Maybe I'll post a video of how I did mine.
brett henson
It didn't start bogging until I hooked up the canister.
On my canister it says in and out. And on the in side there was nothing connected to it. On the bottom of my air box there was a nipple with nothing connected to it. So I assumed that's where the canister connected to. I went to the hardware store and bought 6 inches or so of tube and hooked the 2 together. I come across a video last night. The canisters are open on the bottom side nothing connected to them. They are for venting the vapors in the gas tank when the gas expands due to heat. Then the evap puts it back in the carb for cumbustion. The video is on the venom Canada RUclips channel. Evap exposed. Check it out
I also replaced the fuel filter because it came installed backwards. I bought a new one and installed the correct way. If you think of the filter looking like it has a plastic hat on it...well, the hat part, larger side of filter, should be on the left side of your fuel line...you can even see the arrow on the fuel filter. The arrow indicates fuel flow. It should flow from the tank to the carb....so the arrow should face left to the carb not "right" to the gas tank. Then I emptied my gas tank and refilled with 93 octane. You can empty the tank by first shutting off the gas on right side of bike then turn the gas tank/reserve switch to face the "middle" of full and reserve...then unhook your fuel line and let it empty into an empty gas canister and use a funnel to help guide the gas into the empty gas canister...then refill with fresh gas..the highest octane you can find. I also changed my spark plug. Took it to my auto parts store so they could match it up to the correct NGK plug. I changed the oil as well. I sometimes still run the bike full time with quarter choke and it runs like a champ....after I've been riding for awhile I turn choke off but you might still find that running full time with quarter choke is just fine and might always need to be done...no big deal.
Wat is this going 60 is the top speed?
Yes this isn't a 600cc bike🤡
Why is this trash?? Can someone explain? And im a noobie, keep that in mind.... i thought this was some real shit so i was on my way to buy it before i saw that everyone thought it was trash.... EXPLAIN PLS
Just buy a used real bike on Facebook marketplace or somewhere similar. You can literally buy a used Harley for same price

There garbage i bought one its cheep and runs like crap
Bikes only run like crap for people that don't know how to work on them , take yours to a mechanic and have it fine tuned
MAyday Mayday
Re jet
These Chinese motorcycles that are popping up are cool and
very affordable. The biggest problem is the carburetors. Easiest thing to do is
buy a mikuni carb for $40, jet is to 115. Do an air box mod to get more air. If
115 is to much use the 110 needle. All fixed.

take the mfs course so you can get familiar with your bike and how it is supposed to run.

Why did you buy 125 cc street bike....worthless
Vanilla Gorilla bought it to get my endorsement and for fun....just sold for $1900...bought it for $1400
Why are you watching videos on 125cc street bikes if u think they are trash? Maybe you want it but cant afford it.
Hova Mane ...cause I watch a lot of motorcycle videos...why do you care
because ignorant jealous people like you are always in the comments spewing bullshit from their keyboard, he got a 125 street bike because its a legal road vehicle able to reach 70-75 mph which is well over most speed limits in place on the road. meaning he can ride it where ever he wants and still ride in traffic. is it illogical for him to buy a cheap bike to have fun on every now and then? No, whats illogical is the fact that you think the vehicle is useless when in fact its not. Thousands of people buy them and thousands of people are happy with them. why would someone with barley and experience go and buy a 600-1000 cc bike capable of doing 170+ when they will only be doing the speed limit anyhow? Now thats illogical!
Hova Mane .... ignorant and jealous ??? Of what ?? My daughter rides a 250!!! Maybe you're so upset cause you can't handle anything bigger than one of these pocket bikes...
Buy a real motorcycle.

brett henson would u recommend this bike as something reliable for a 16-17 year old?
Jonny Morrill shut the fuck up
Charles DBeats NO, that's a death trap. If they get on the road and have them type of issues they'd be in real trouble and get ran over. Plus the whole point of being visible for safety is reduced when the bike is so tiny and sitting low

Hey asshole maybe this is his first bike and he wants to learn how to get better at writing something faster and doesn't want to waste the money and buying a brand new one have you ever thought about that dumbfuck 😀
I think the problem is that he didn't break in the bike properly. He has 140 on the dash and he's running it at hight revs and high speed. The bike should not be driven like this untill 1,000 miles. You wanna go fast? If you're not first you're last??? Get a bike with a motor 250cc or better.
Cool👍
You have to use a little more choke on that bike that's why it's doing that also if you changed out the spark plugs put the Chinese plugs back in for some reason all them Chinese Motors hate NGK plugs or any other plugs I had the same issues on my x19 put the Chinese plugs back in never had an issue again some days I just had to run a little more choke on my bike and it ran just fine but if the chokes all the way off it spits and sputters a little so I even my choke out with the handlebar and the bike runs Perfect all day I went down to my nearest hardware store and bought an NGK plug the minute I put it in the bike acting funny I don't know if China has a different gapping system to their plugs than what we do or a difference Spark....
Bike is running great now...fuel filter was on backwards as well so I replaced that as well.
