KZ Motors rule the roost as far as I am concerned. Living breathing TORQUE monsters!! I know mine was. There are faster bikes of course but just the raw power that these motors make, especially for the age they are, is just incredible. I had a 79 KZ1000 and I could be rolling along at 15 or 20 mph and just crack the throttle in first gear and roast the tire off without even touching the clutch. It was an amazing bike. I miss it!!
Dude this is the best mini bike I’ve ever seen I would rip this thing like crazy so cool guys man I need to build one of those bad boys for myself to ride thanks for sharing guys this is wicked
I stretched a Yamaha YSR 50 frame 7 inches and fit a YZ 426 in. Was able to graft two wheels together for the rear and ran a 150 tire of a Honda scooter that also ran a 12 inch wheel.
That's overkill cool! Answer me this? Next time with proper leathers and gear, would you pull at least a full 1/8 mile pass? How about running it all out 1320?? If I had the chance I would!!
Although very cool and bad to the bone, calling it a mini bike isn't justice. It's a small bike for sure. I love it. If multi-gear engines were allowed in the true mini bike classes, the game would totally change to ridiculously unsafe racing. At 24hp my Briggs Raptor powered mini easily hits 100mph with a centrifugal clutch.
That frame is bigger than a Grom frame. I said the same thing when I seen it... "Stretched frame, bigger tires, motorcycle engine... That's a motorcycle."
I'm 67 and I'd make a couple of test hits, ..maybe a run or two. Being raised in the sun bleached seats of the snack bar at Fremont Drag strip in the early 60's, I've run every car and motorcycle I owned, until 1987. In 1983 I took my 1981 Honda 750F AMA superbike with an HRC engine, to the track to get familiar with it's behavior, as the bike was a handful to launch on road race tires. In spite of strong winds coming off the SF bay, we made some good passes, without flipping it ..best was 11.20 @ 122mph.
not true. There have been plenty of multi geared mini bikes in the past. Just gotta watch cars and cameras enough to see the cool vintage stuff they've found
@Kas. Cars and Cameras haven't built any multi geared "Mini" bikes. A true mini is limited to 10" wheels max, an industrial engine with a centrifugal clutch or CVT driveline. 130mph is definitely attainable with a single cylinder engine.
@@kasuraga that was last year at Pate swap meet. The "2 speed" is literally two centrifugal clutches that engage at different RPM. I actually almost bought that bike thinking it had a real gearbox. I couldn't justify the cost for what it was. It was pretty cool though.
I definitely agree with you, a mini bike is a bike that has 10” wheels on it, and a single cylinder no transmission bike. This thing has like a four cyclinder with a trans on it lol...
I want ride it. Jack check out a channel called Detroit Hood tv. Bunch mini bike drag racers. This guy shows up mini bike with 600 Polaris triple 2 stroke. Dude was putting the smackdown on street bikes. Thought it was that baddest till now. Keep racing.
Would be great if you could post some videos. Maybe cycledrag could start a second Channel called Minibikedrag by reposting others videos with permission. I've seen videos posted that are headless. With the right exposure it could become a serious sport. I would rather watch that than junior dragsters.
They raced Artic Cat snow machines at our summer drag races years ago (drag slick tracks) and the 580 did 12:19 et. The artic cat 780 did low 10's in the quarter n went as straight as an arrow out of an english long bow
Not to be contrary because I like this bike but, it has a motorcycle frame, motorcycle tires and a motorcycle engine so...why are they calling it a mini bike? I am seriously curious having owned many, many bikes in my lifetime including a few mini bikes and pit bikes as well.
You know what’s messed up. A lil kid in Compton has a mini bike with a single cylinder 275cc engine that’s runs 107mph in the 1/4 mile. That’s more like a naked street bike than a mini bike.
Yes I'd ride it, but 1. I've got experience with motorcycle drag racing including some Pro Mod and Nitro Harley dragbikes. 2. I'm not always known for being smart when it comes to risk and 2 wheels.
Now your on your way bud all good I told ya you would make it now got Ron in your pocket to yes good job guys love it I really don't want any fame though I'm good lol
That is definitely not a mini bike. It is in between a full size and a true mini bike. Mini bikes should be classified with a one cylinder four-stroke motor and build upon that would be a true mini bike in my eyes
Yes i absolutely would. My nickname is sketchy, the old racers in my neighborhood gave me that name. Ive built many of very fast, not so safe backyard builds. This looks like a blast. I had a 3 wheeler with a gsxr 750 engine. Countless snowmobile triple powered toys. Even slapped my built dwarf car engine in a harley davidson golf cart. Love me some widow maker builds. lol
This is FAR from the fastest mini bike. Look up Mini bikes with Junior Drag car motors in them. "JR Race Car Titan Engine 3-3/4" Bore". 50+ Horse Power They are WAY faster than this.
Too many cylinders to be a mini bike! Just saying. I knew some people that used to race junior Dragster, the rules stated it had to be a single cylinder and not sure exactly the displacement but most started with the 5HP Briggs! You could bore it out which most chose to do, bored so much they had to strap the head to keep it from splitting open. I would think that to be considered a mini bike simular rules apply! At least in my mind they do lol!🤠👍
It looks more like a homemade drag bike than a mini bike my man.
its looks exactly like the bike it pulls for top fuel is why
Semantics. 🤙
Put a engine like that in a Coleman you’ll get 1 mil views guaranteed
@@craigstreetzel7743 ooooh mini version, makes more sense.
@@robnduhcut lol the frame will snap for sure!

What do a person consider a mini bike , a mini bike when i grew up had a briggs and Stratton ect in it , not a 1394 cc
Dude this is the best mini bike I’ve ever seen I would rip this thing like crazy so cool guys man I need to build one of those bad boys for myself to ride thanks for sharing guys this is wicked
Not a minibike at all. That's a motorcycle.
Not even a Motorcycle.
BIG ASS MOTOR
Drag bike, not even mini
What constitutes a mini bike , not educated in the mini bike seen ✌
Yes I would in a heartbeat. I love racing and you ain't living if you and trying.
Live an learn baby🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Na .. you ain’t racing if you don’t think your going to die. More throttle .. what’s breaks?

And I thought my 3/4 scale Predator v twin powered toy was kinda crazy , a four cyl now that's crazy fast.
Wow what a ride that would be !!!!!!He short shifted that thing!!!! Its got more in it. So sick!!and I would love to ride it!!!! What a rush

Mini bikes have no gears. That's just a very small motorcycle with a very large engine.

Absolutely love it. True old school crazy
Huh? Crazy? Ya minibikes get away real quick🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's not a mini bike. It's a small frame motorcycle with a full size motorcycle engine.
Hell yeah, been thinking of building a 600 mini. I have a 500 arctic cat on a mini frame now

Never ride without helmet and full leathers
can we have a video on Mr Cycledrag himselfs own bike/ bikes?
JACK STIL WAITING ON THE SHRIT I ORDERED WHAT'S UP LOL ALMOST 4 WEEKS
ten practice runs and then "Hell Ya" ... SEND'R!!!!!! :)
It’s awesome. I’d love to a true mini bike setup though, with a clutch/torque converter.
Idk of it classifies as a mini bike with that big of a motor and frame modifications. It turned into a homemade motorcycle. But either way its rad!
Hell yea.. speed is everything crash or not that thing gonna be a beast down the strip
Love every post man peace
Might as well take the engine side covers off , bolt on a couple tires on the spinny things in there and sit on the valve cover and go 😄
Not to be contrary because I like this bike but, it has a motorcycle frame, motorcycle tires and a motorcycle engine so...why are they calling it a mini bike? I am seriously curious having owned many, many bikes in my lifetime including a few mini bikes and pit bikes as well.
I would say that the "or what" is the right gategory out of those three :)
Sure would I use to race a KZ 900 w/big bore and your basically just riding a motor down track even in a bike so why not it would be awesome
The uk magazine is Street fighter
This is insane !! I Love It !!!
You know what’s messed up. A lil kid in Compton has a mini bike with a single cylinder 275cc engine that’s runs 107mph in the 1/4 mile. That’s more like a naked street bike than a mini bike.
I thought I've seen every bike 👍
That's not a minibike sir.
Carb dripping fuel at 2:38!😁
Yes I'd ride it, but
1. I've got experience with motorcycle drag racing including some Pro Mod and Nitro Harley dragbikes.
2. I'm not always known for being smart when it comes to risk and 2 wheels.
I would ride that to work in a 3 piece suit for shits and giggles
Great job Jack that was a fun video now back to reality. Lol Mike from Jersey. 🏍🏍🏍🏍
yo vasillys builds youtube channel has a blaster 200cc mini bike that he ran 8sec 1/4 mile in if I'm not.mistaken???
Looks like a nice bike Jeremy Teasley has a minibike the run 7s
Looks like a ton of fun
Got an XS1100 at home I can't seem to find the title to.
Pizzaboy & JB Auto from Detroit has the fastest mini bikes on record... but 9's are good tho, great build (Pizzaboy's mini bike run is on RUclips)
Not to mention pizzaboys bike it a true mini bike this bike is not a mini bike
-mini bike
-proceeds with a full sized bike.
thats not a minibike at that point
If you would sell it how much will will you be asking for it
That thing is WILD!!!
That is not a mini bike not even close its a home made drag bike its powered by a 1397cc motorcycle engine not a mini bike
Hell yeah I'll run it full throttle and have a big old smile in my face
I would definitely ride that
That is a custom built motorcycle not a mini bike LOL
Where you been dude!?!
I would love pull a quarter mile in 10 seconds (ON A MINIBIKE!!)
A DREAM COME TRUE FOR SURE.
Heck yes I'd ride it... of course 6-8 passes before full pass...lol
1000% hell yes I'd ride it.
1394% I'd ride it.
Keep up the good work
I want and need a CycleDrag sticker!
Wait until i get my supercharged 1000cc nitro v-twin minibike ready ;)
Uh, yeah. Are you kidding? Hell yeah. I would definitely send it.
I wouldn't call it a mini bike anymore. Mini cycle I think is what they use to call em back in the day
If I had the money I would build me one and definitely drag race it
Made from dirt and stick... Madmax would love this bike
2:37 number one carb is leaking gas.
300zxdriver Have to rebuild mine every year with this ethanol gas BS
Now your on your way bud all good I told ya you would make it now got Ron in your pocket to yes good job guys love it I really don't want any fame though I'm good lol
I would because why not it’s dope asf
You need to come buy our mini bike. lol
Hell yeah. I'll ride THAT thing.
Define Mini??
I'd definitely ride it just add some NO2 lol
That is definitely not a mini bike. It is in between a full size and a true mini bike. Mini bikes should be classified with a one cylinder four-stroke motor and build upon that would be a true mini bike in my eyes
That's a mini bike in the same way that a Shelby Cobra is a go-kart.
Why not?
No I would not but looks fun I just value whatever extra time I have and would hate to weeble on that going over a hundred.
Isn't the point of minibikes that they're like half the size of a regular bike?
Don't. Kid your self THAT IS NOT A MINI BIKE Not. A Fat chance
Yes i absolutely would. My nickname is sketchy, the old racers in my neighborhood gave me that name. Ive built many of very fast, not so safe backyard builds. This looks like a blast. I had a 3 wheeler with a gsxr 750 engine. Countless snowmobile triple powered toys. Even slapped my built dwarf car engine in a harley davidson golf cart. Love me some widow maker builds. lol
Psh, my refrigerator sounds meaner than that thing.
😁
hell yeah I would
i would ride that in a heartbeat it goes as straight as a string so why not
Yeah my turn
HEEELLLL YES I WOULD🏁🏁
Hell yes I'd take that down the track iv ridden scarier things.
That's right Jesse james = only in your own MIND
THAT'S NOT NO MINI BIKE WITH THAT BIG ASS MOTOR GOOD VIDEO 👍 STILL
This is FAR from the fastest mini bike.
Look up Mini bikes with Junior Drag car motors in them. "JR Race Car Titan Engine 3-3/4" Bore".
50+ Horse Power
They are WAY faster than this.
Don't think I would get off it
i would definitly put a kick up on the rear of the seat just to keep my fat ass on the little bugger when i launch it
Nothing close to a mini bike . But sweet though
No way but its cool

Why wouldn't you want to?

Why not this is America .
Cool but Mini bikes don't have gears!
not a pitbike.Thats a mini
Come back when you have small wheels and a lawn mower motor.
Nitro is the fastest mini bike’s friend…
Would I ride that little la bomba ? Oh yeah hell yeah lololol
It looks like it runs straight as a string !
That’s a motorcycle not a minibike
My definition of a mini bike is way off. Mini drag bike is what I see.
