    Cool find! Never encountered a minibike with dual rear wheels. That beast may require a big block 3.5 hp B&S engine.

      The thought has crossed my mind!! I could see having fun doing a swap of some sort. 🍻

    Yikes you scared me with the trouble light you are using so close to the leaking gas. I know several people who burned down their shop with that exact scenario. Very cool you got it running. Neat little project. Thank you for sharing.

      That's a very good point... it's an LED bulb, so it's cool to the touch, but that doesnt mean it couldn't ignite the fuel in a different manner. Thank you for pointing that out, and for the comment! 🍻👍🏻

    I use to stare at these in pepboys for hours while my grandparents got these car/truck serviced. Ended up with a four wheeler but never forgot how bad I wanted one of these in gray.

      Well, the good news is you can get a super cheap carb for it on Amazon if you need to! Otherwise, good luck to you! I'm hoping to have the second video out soon. Been a lot going on around here 😅
      Have fun! 🍻 👍🏻

    Hy Aron, another perfect rebuilt. Sometimes I think you’re my better double in the garage. Hitting your head on stuff that hangs in the wrong place could be me 😂 I have diverse marks on my forehead of such silly acts of stupidity 😂 thanks for the entertainment and I wish a good night while my day started. Let’s see what happens to me while I work in the garden today, will I survive? Sure I will 👍💪 Greetings from Germany, where I definitely need to learn a lot more 🐝

      Greetings Maik! Yes, I have packed so many things in my garage that I've definitely hit my head multiple times on many things 🤪 Thank you for the well wishes. It's always nice to hear from you. Good luck in the garden! With the dropping temperatures, my lawn/garden time is allllll about leaf removal. They're falling like rain! 🍃 🍂 🍁
      Take care! 👍🏻🍻

    Mowerz and Blowerz here. The engine is not the engine that is supposed to be in the bike. Someone threw in that engine to get her running again. Think of it as a trimmer on steroids. None of the electrical components is needed for it to run with the exception of the ignition switch. It doesn’t even have a charging system on that engine I don’t believe. The carb kit for that particular carb will get her performance where it should be. She’s starving for fuel now. Love the vids! ( that was the hubby )….. tell him he can comment and he gets all long winded! First, thank you for listening and playing with the pups! So sorry to hear Titan got skunked! Im sure you and your family give them lots of love, I was just messing around with ya! Second! When this cool bike is done, who do we get the pleasure of seeing, take the first ride? It’s so cute, but so little! I love watching your videos, cause you crack me up. My hubby does small engine repair and i learn and I also get to see the pups and you awesome crocks! who knew they could shoot lighting bolts! Thanks again! Looking forward to the next vid!

      Well hello there! Nice to hear from you! I appreciate all the feedback and information you want to throw my way 😁 I have lots to learn. I'm looking forward to getting the little monster running tip-top. I'm sure my big butt will take it for the maiden voyage when it's ready. We will see how much it does or doesn't like hauling me around 😰😆
      I know you were teasing about the pups 😉 But he sure did love having a fetch! He thanks you! 🦴
      I hope all is well. Thanks again for the info and comments. It puts a big smile on my face! Until next time!! 🍻👍🏻

      Sounds amazing! I bet it's a blast to ride. I was thinking a repower might be fun. But first I'm just having fun tinkering. Things have been super busy around here and I ran into a few PC issues so hopefully I'll have something sooner than later. Fingers crossed 🤞 See ya then!

    @ghettsumm7949 Год назад +2

    Read your spark plug, that will tell you how rich or lean it's been running. You really should give yourself more credit, you seem to have a very logical approach to problem solving. That's a neat little scoot.

    • @TractorFella
      @TractorFella  Год назад +3

      That's a good suggestion! I haven't pulled it since I checked for spark.

      @TractorFella  Год назад

      Hello. Yes, it's a 2-stroke, so it takes a mix fuel. I'm using the same 50:1 I use in my chainsaws. 👍🏻👍🏻

    My sister and I had two of these back in the early 2000's! 😂 it would max out at 20 mph. I liked when it was running out of gas it would lean out and hit 25 mph lmao 😂

      That's what I paid for this one at a garage sale! Haha Probably isn't worth much more now that it's running 😆
      Good luck getting it running! It's fun to ride, but be careful turning with the dual rears. It's pretty awkward lol Have fun!
