    That's sad about not getting sponsored or even discounted on the parts. You definitely have a great channel your videos are fine quality and the detail you cover on your builds is absolutely great. Keep up the good work.

    Hi Nice video. On your argument referring to the long runners on the SHO you didn't pause to think the the SHO engine has injectors at the head not where the long runners start. The long runners were there to increase air speed. I admit that I thought the runner may be a bit long but the proof is in how it both starts and how it runs. It may be a little harder to start on really cold days. If it revs up with no bogging down then it doesn't matter the length is fine. The other benefit is it keeps the carb out of harm's way. It's both protected from sticks and rocks plus it won't drown in semi deep water. Super nice job. Thanks!

      @2strokejunkie686 3 года назад

      @@EnginesbyAustin well as cool as that is bro, it is well known that long runners generally aid in tourque, short runners are generally in top end based applications.. not saying that tables can't be turned with each setup, but it seems most agree, and plenty of info online supporting the fact that length aids in tourque. Length ads resistance to flow compared to same diameter intake but one that is shorter will flow more, top end in short requires more air/fuel, so having said that it makes much more sense that longer would better suit low to mid-range applications, and shorter for top-end.

    Bro I was like I can do everything you can in the engine till you started making custom pipes. That’s some next level tinkering. Badass

    At first I thought the motor in a XR was silly but you did a great job and I'm impressed. Great job

    That would be "go power sports" that's a shame you deserve full sponsorship!!

      Haha 😂 well at the time last year when I ordered the parts my channel was 25,000 so maybe they didn’t see the potential 🤷🏻‍♂️

    After seeing your 1st video on this build I finally tracked down a 1987 yz125 as a roller. In the description your using an xr200 carb. Would you happen to know the bore size and jet? That 212 sounds strong! Any help would be greatly appreciated, keep up the great content Mike👍

    @Mikefestiva Awesome Upgrade! I agree with your last remarks on your sponsor. Negative advertisement is still advertisement. I'd just post amzn links in the description. What is your top speed?

    • @Mikefestiva
      @Mikefestiva  4 года назад +1

      Thanks for checking out my new video and commenting 👍 I will definitely look into links.
      I have not taken it out on a speed run with the new parts, last fall I took it out with a stock carb with bigger main jet, gov removed and 18lb valve springs and it topped out at 56mph but it was only at 3800 RPMs.

    The issue with the long intake people are referring to is that you have a carb at the end of it, a long runner like that can allow the fuel to fall out of suspension in the air. Not likely to be an issue in your case, just some context.

    There is something called the "super 30 series driver- The juggernaut" as a replacement front pulley. The other guys are all raving about it, it might help solve your issues. I think it sucks you were not offered some kind of a discount, if I am not mistaken this project had a shit-ton of views.

    Go power sports will eventually sponsor you. You just need more content with their products. The guys that are sponsored by them have been doing this for over 7 years and they're name has gotten around. Keep up the good work and videos.

    • @Mikefestiva
      @Mikefestiva  2 года назад +1

      I have had my RUclips channel for over 7 years as well. At this point I would rather pay out of pocket then deal with Go power sports.

    Alright you twisted my arm! Lol, I have a 110 Chinese market rolling chassis and like 4 or 5 6.5 clones each a different make, so why not? Thanks to you I'm intrigued as to how well the creditors work in the dirt bikes amongst other things he's Predator Motors were just insanely awesome so thanks for the idea and let's get her done.

  • @Taboloncawonthemasters
    @Taboloncawonthemasters Год назад +3

    Put the ghost in it! Or continue to modify the current one. Orrrr even better, sell it to me and let me continue this awesome build!!

    • @Taboloncawonthemasters
      @Taboloncawonthemasters Год назад +1

      Reason why I want it is it I can’t weld but have always wanted a predator dirt bike once I saw your vids. I got the stuff for it I just can’t weld so I figured I’d ask if you’d sell it. Got a motor and all for it. I would just need to buy the frame from you haha

    • @kingiument4627
      @kingiument4627 Год назад

      A modified predator like this is stronger than the ghost. The ghost is just a 212 with a stage 2 kit pre installed

    That long intake tube you made most likely gave you an increase in power. The air increases in velocity as it travels down the tube. A slightly smaller tube might work even better. We used to call it 'ram air' in the old days. Great video my man and great work. Keep it up and God Bless You.
