    Just traded a kayak for a Doodle minibike with a brand new 6.5 Predator that needed the kill switch connected. My 11-year old boy and I watch your vids together to learn and we really appreciate these quick informative videos.

      @@RedBeardsGarage So if you don't ground it to the engine, can you just attach the ground to a point on the frame?

    RBG I think I binged watched majority of your videos this afternoon. Thanks for all the help brother! Just bought myself a Go Kart yesterday afternoon. It's a Murray looking 2 seater. Got it with a Predator 212cc. Plan on doing a lot of work to it. Your videos backed my confidence. Got yourself a new subscriber. Thanks again!

    I want to thank you for making all these videos Man. I just bought a mini Motovox mmb80 that had a predator 212 swapped onto it. Because of some of your videos I've been able to get it running really well and do a little bit of repairs and modifications to make it a little better. So thanks for that.

    Hey Big Red,
    I just finished watching the video and everything worked out fine utilizing both kill switches🏍 my sons mini bike went from the stock 97cc and upgraded him to the predator 212cc. I still left the governor on it to keep from over revving and maintain the safer speed for now. Love the educational videos keep making them😃👍🏽

    Awesome channel man. So I have a question: I bought a alphaworks 212cc and I doesn't seem to have a low oil sensor. I can't find nothing online. It's only one ground wire and the other goes to center/top of the engine under the gas tank I'm sure to the coil. I don't see a relay or a wire going to the block.

    I just purchased my first mini bike. It’s a old Baja doodlebug with a older predator 212 on it like the one in this video. It currently doesn’t work I’m trying to trouble shoot it and thinking of just replacing the carb to make the throttle easier. What kind of aftermarket carbs fit on those older predator engines?

Now that I have everything together before I put in service what kind of oil should I use in my 212cc predator with a stage 1 upgrade and torque converter?
