- We take the YD100 motorized trail bike and try to conquer the 60 mile rail trail for the first time.
We ran into issues along the way, and pushed it as far as we could.

It's pretty incredible how much you can get out of these little motors with just a little bit of knowledge of Your bike and some care.
Couldn't agree more!
This guy likes his 2 strokes but the little gem I found is the 4 stroke kits that are much quieter but since they are Honda clones, the reliability is great and having a centrifugal clutch is much easier for new riders
My goes 63 on a good day, daily driver!
Andy S definitely the better choice
If you don't expect wonders from your machines they actually bring you wonders.
58 miles on rough terrain! Whoo hoo! And some people try to say these motors aren't any good lol. Your videos are proof that people can have a fun hobby and not starve to death! Thank you for as all you do for this community! 👍👍🍻😎
Very much so...... As a guy who can blow the whole budget, it nice having a project that is affordable. And replacement parts are everywhere.
The beauty of these bikes is that you can carry or push your way through anything, can't do any of that with an ATV or dirt bike when push comes to shove, great video dude.
A proper dirt bike - hell, an old on/off road bike like the TS125 or xl125 is so much more capable that the places it would get stuck you'd never have to worry about pushing his bike through because you'd never get there to be stuck.
You could ride it t the trailhead, get to the trees - turn around to get a chainsaw, come back and clear the trail, and ride to the end and take a nap while waiting for the YD to show up.
I'm not saying its not worth building and riding - just that it has to be done for fun = because you like wrenching and screwing around.
It's never going to be better than the vehicles it long ago evolved into.
32:02 i just love it when neighbors thinks they own the roads.
For real!
@@LAHoverkeep up the videos! im thinking about doing my own videos too.
Eh, don't they know he has fire crackers lol 😉
ice yaj, yeah, I hate it just as much as people on bikes who think they own the roads!
@@Nevertrustalawyer We are talking about a dirt trail here not road bikers, completely different than Karens that think they own the world dude.
dont be scared of revving a 2 stroke as long as u got a good oil and the engine doesnt overheat your fine to open it up for long periods of time
I broke my bike today pulling my friend do u think I can get the bike fixed
@@evetighe it dependes on what happened did it lock up?
@@evetighe ruclips.net/video/EyFMLQ1a8kw/видео.html
I’m breaking my 50cc in currently, or at least trying to lol. I have a 1:20 oil to gas ratio. This thing is so fun and I got one because my friend had one. I’m not at all near being mechanically inclined but I put it together with ease, and am having fun learning about the motor. Do you guys have any suggestions about a good carb to put on it I’m going to get and expansion chamber as well
@@harrisong5232 depends you have to check if you got space for a bigger carb. Whats the size of the one you got?
One of the best motorized bicycle videos I've seen on here ! Good job!
Wow, thanks!
Just found your channel this is an awesome video! Been building my first motorized bike the last few days and its such a treat to know there are people making videos like this. Really appreciate the production quality you put into this and how detailed you are on sharing. Cant wait to go back and watch your backlog of videos, even though itll keep me from working on the bikes! Keep it up
Thank you! I keep them a bit longer than most so people will have something to watch/listen to while working on their bike. lol you will be doing allot of work on these things :P Stay safe, and welcome to the hobby.
Your pretty good I love all your videos keep it coming please! I am a motorized bike anthusist I actually watch and listen to your videos while working on my bikes as well so more power to you and thank you for the great content honestly happy new year to you as well
I am at 250 miles on a modded Yd100 ,still original clutch and monster compression. 35 mph stock pipe and 36t (im 200 lbs Walmart heavy bike
It is the black 26 mountain bike from WM and after a year it just needed new rings@@theLyzhendricks
I use a 100cc 2 stroke on a bicycle daily and go to work with it . I have for almost 2 years and over 20.000 km. Still running great only problem is the clutch that starts to slip every 3000 km but it is an easy job.
That was a nice cruise,and test.Thanks for bringing us along.Sorry to see it end poorly,and am glad you weren't seriously hurt.
Thanks 👍
Your bike runs so smooth and I love the some of the views on that trail! Keep up the good content ☺️
Never in a million years would I do this with mine till I seen this lol never thought it would handle the distance or abuse can't wait to get another one
Maaaann this is torture lol my bike blew up yesterday and now I got recommended this. The piston's wristpin snapped a piece off and sent a piece of metal into the cylinder. Needless to say the whole top end is toast lol. I need to take apart the rest of the engine to see if the crankcase and bearing are still usable and if it is I'll be repairing the whole thing and hopefully get back to zooming around my neighborhood. I out brake lights, blinkers, a horn, a low idle switch, and a bbq igniter for FLAMES BABY and just when everything was working perfectly, the bike gave up haha.
I wonder why if your igniting your exhaust
@@dab-pre-ss-ionaustin1986 You don't know jack about what I did I take it?
It blew up from a circlip failure. I just got done rebuilding the engine a few minutes ago and I'm heading to the hardware store to buy hardware to mount it back on the bike.
I'm buying the G style clip circlips but have the 2 pronged ones in right now. They are very sketchy. Buy G clip and you're fine.
Got this kit for my son and he gets to drive it to school every day and back and he doenst have to use the family car anymore awesome
Best Dad EVER!
Where do you live? Back in the day i rode on one to school till they stopped me because its an illegal moped where I live. Then switched to ebike
@@jekafilatov the beautiful state of oklahoma
It hasn't been stolen yet.? Where I'm from a bike like these would be stolen by lunch time
Watching everything you went through to keep that thing running convinced me.
My 40cc Tanaka on an old GEBE belt drive easily get 150 mpg with a lot fewer
hassles. Still does 30+ though I seldom go that fast.
I believe hell is an eternity of Karens telling you what you are and aren't allowed to do and demanding to speak to your manager. 😂
Looks like we are all half way there lol
I had a hell of a time trying to get a good tune on the stock NT type slide carbs. I ended up drilling and threading a pulse port and installing a diaphragm type carb (Walbro clone, I think). Not only did it make my motor run better through the range, but it gained a fair amount of power as well. Ditching the stock pipe and installing a modified pocket bike pipe helped quite a bit too (has a slight expansion and a very breathable muffler)
Glad i saw your post , i keep thinking same thing , do you remember walbro # or which saw it was on ? I would like to use the walbro hd12b as used on the husqvarna 372xp , 71cc chainsaw . Also how did you couple the carb to motor and where did you drill pulse port ? Wish i could see pictures ! The beauty of this carb is the metering screws for low and hi speed rpm's that precisely tunes fuel an air mix and easily adjusted for days of hi humidity or low humidity as humidity conditions change the tune , as well as temp . Also the diaphram carbs very sensitive to motor heat and on the saws have rubber or plastic intake manifolds . So glad to hear this !
@@sundial6919 Sorry for the late reply. I'm using a Husqvarna 372XP carb mounted on an OZ reed valve (vertical threaded holes on the intake plate have a 31mm spread, which matches the carb perfectly. This mounts the carb right up to the intake tube). I just drilled a 1/8" hole into the crankcase, and pressed a small section of 1/8" OD aluminum tubing as a hose barb. There was some minor fabrication involved in getting a cable throttle connected, but it's been a great setup so far - especially once I converted the bottom end to case reed!
@@dmoore0079 glad to hear it my friend
I don't know why i enjoy this hobby, it's like big boy logo i guess... Keep up the good work, not really work if you're having fun doing it.
Thanks 👍
Man!! How you cut through that yard was awesome!! Keep up the good work
very good if only others were as informative on the many subjects 9.5out of ten thanks for the logic and practical info
So nice of you, ride safe :)
Covid19 allowing Karen's to go FULL KAREN
Ok thanks for the info don’t let it idle much at all I went to 32:1 ratio and seems to run better I have bone stock everything but I’m trying to get a better compression head and cylinder walls
Trust me I’ve run Walmart full synthetic 50:1 down an old dirt road that was tore up next to the bayou with no air filter for 200 miles you can run less oil it will survive and it was in the Louisiana summer
They are frigin tough forsure! However its doesnt hurt to use a fair amount though,I Like it when it smokes going down the road.Ive put well over a 1000 k on my 80cc using a good bit of oil. Had to change the spark plug(Cheap one it came with) is all. So much fun!! Im planning a big trip next summer! Cant wait..
@@natesmith8713 oh yea now on my ported motor that’s piped, bored out carb I keep it wide open 24/7 like seriously I run it 20:1 or 24:1 because it’s getting strung out so much and I want this cylinder and piston to last if not I am working on a ktm 85 c piston in a china doll that will be my backup/test motor
@@natesmith8713 it leaves a haze down the rode once I’m wide open
I find these videos helpful thank you for making them.
I would recommend a mongoose mack frame for trail riding they are very strong and also use the mag wheels
That was bomb brother that was a great ride thank you for sharing
Nice ride. It looks like a lot of fun. Thx man
It's just so amazing for a couple thousand you can have 5+ motorized bikes. No wonder government has locked it down with regulations.
Good day to you, Pete respect your gun.
Good ride be carful watch out for snakes, check for snakes and makes sure your bearings are not to loose or to tight, which can cause the bearings to cut deep inside the axle or clean through it because it happen to me two time and I have to buy another axle and do all the spokes.
It's the solid head mixed with being high compression. I have seen lots of the one piece heads pop spark plugs out. Run them glowing red hot, and foul them out due to excessive heating. If you are going to run a 100cc kit it's best to get a cylinder with a separate head.
Great info. I'm having the same sort of issues with my rear tire setup. The massive Kenda rear tire that I'm running comes close to BOTH chains, and the rear bearings/axle setup. My front crank needed tightening and so did my triple tree as it backed off considerably. But on the plus side I've got my GPS & custom ebay stereo ready for install and test run!
Right on
Try following the formula that's been around since the 70s make your lead in pipe to the expansion chamber 8 to 11 times in length the diameter of your exhaust port meaning that your expansion chamber should for sure be less than 10inches from your motor look up the two strokers bible if you wish but following this formula will give you incredible gains in low and mid power cooler running and better fuel mileage!
Love the last item of things you were taking to the trail, gotta stay safe out there
I took my 4 stroke 49cc 2-3hp gas bike on a 120 mile ride from mesa Arizona to pepersauce cave in mount lemon. It was crazy. I was towing a trailer with about 90lbs of camping gear and water. It took me 9 hours. About 6 to 7 riding and the rest were rest stops. Sadly I was unable to make the trip home and had to be picked up by my uncle for various reasons one being that Google maps drained my phone two times just getting there causing my battery bank to not have enough battery to last me for my trip back meaning I would have probably ended up in the middle of nowhere with a dead phone and no idea how to get back.
Man that is awesome! Congrats on making it that far. I hope you had a good seat with some nice handle bars because my back was a bit stiff from just riding 58 miles lol.
@@LAHover my throttle hand was killing me. It was actually sore for a day afterwords. I had a pretty nice seat that I tossed a gel seat cover onto to add more cushion. It was honestly pretty fun despite all the hardships I faced.
Wow Mesa to Peppersauce ...and pulling a trailer.....
Thank god for 4 cycle...
Maybe you rode on the shoulder of the Florence highway....
Going up Peppeesauce.....a little grade....
Good job

I enjoy ebery minute of the ride,just got this motor on amazon, got a jack sjaft for it just to go to the grocery store and showoff, thanks for the video.
First I thought you had a 4 stroke engine where the gas and oil are separate. But you mixed it at the gas station. So I Figured out why your bike is giving you a challenge. It's not running rich, sort of. When you pour the oil directly into the tank it just sits very thickly. It doesn't difuse or dilute and mix with the gas properly. Then when it it gets to the carb it's too "rich" but not in gas it's in oil. I would highly suggest that you pour the oil into your "spare" tank and mix the gas and oil in that or other gas approved container and shake/mix the oil and gas. Also pour the oil in after the gas. When you need to refuel use your "spare" tank first, then refill it with gas then oil. The jostling in your pack will thoroughly mix it.
I normally don't fill up at a pump, I just did for my return trip. but good idea about using the back up tank to mix the gas.
Another great video man! Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Another great video bro makes me want to go for a ride just ordered myself a CDH YD 100 kit off from amazon
Ur born for this! By fast the most informational and entertaining motorized bike channel on RUclips. Subbed brother!
May God Protect and Bless You and Yours!
Appreciate that, Ride On Brother!
Thanks for posting the video. Looks like an exciting trip, I really enjoyed watching
I am very impressed iam buying one or maybe 2 this is exactly what I need
Consider switching to a disc brake rear wheel using the brake disc holes to mount your sprocket to this eliminates all the spoke torsion from the thru spoke mounting system the results your wheel stays straight and your sprocket runs true!
Thanks for this vid! Very informative and the presentation is legit!
I appreciate that!
cutting across the grass short cut genius buddy !
your girl looks thrilled seeing you work on your engine in the living room.i do the same thing lol
I like that it’s fairly quiet once the motor gets warmed up. You Mentioned some start up issues from time to time. Have you ever thought about adding a pull start as an optional way to start the engine? Didn’t hear a lot of gear noises. As far as noise itself goes I’ve heard about putting cardboard inside the gearbox. Maybe you might look into putting some sort of splash guards in front. If they can be made out of a sound deadening it might help make the bike More stealthy. Is there anything you can wrap around the downpipe to help reduce noise and vibrations? Regular car engines have Rubberized motor mounts. Would putting something like a piece of inter tube under the motor mounts do the same? Maybe if you wrap the entire down tube in rubber might reduce noise and vibrations even further.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
“Never leave home without adequate protection” HELL YEA!!
I love the zombie kit 😍
Flying down them trails. Lol. I want one of these. Awesome fun💯
Nice video. Too bad you had to turn back. I was really enjoying watching this long ride. It's got me daydreaming about my future trips.
Best thing about nowadays is cameras for sure. When I was a kid I remember getting messed with by people like that all the time. There were abandoned railroad tracks near my house that people drove dirt bikes on. They took the tracks out 15-20 years before I started riding there. People would call the cops all the time which was super annoying because we weren’t bothering anyone but the “Karen’s” had nothing better to do. One of the last times that I actually stopped for a cop I said dude were not bothering anyone people should be happy we’re not causing trouble like all the other young kids out stealing stuff from stores, doing drugs and what not we’re just putting around on our dirt bikes. This cop was actually cool and said do me a favor try to stay away from the areas of the tracks where people’s houses are. Another time a lady said we were driving in her backyard for hours and when we told the cop we didn’t even go on her property and he only passed by 2 times quickly he didn’t believe us and said he’s gonna take our bikes . I said you ain’t taking shit why would we stay here when there are the sand pits with tons of cool trails just a mile up the road? Isaid let’s go in her backyard to see tire tracks because if we were back there for hours there will be tracks well the cop got aggravated said I’ll let u go this time but next time I’m taking the bikes so we never once stopped again.
Whenever you go fill up you should always close your fuel valve so oil dosent immediately go into the carburetor before mixing with the gas
thats right guns keep you safe
"never leave home without adequate protection"... I agree with that, but was sad to see you didn't have a ruger.
It's GlockOclock baby! 20 pass the hours to be exact. I buy what I like, and what I like is 180 grains of custom 10mm being pushed out of 4.6" Lone Wolf Barrel ;)
@@LAHover actually, I'm more of a .45 acp guy myself. doesn't matter what brand of barrel it's going down!
Matters if you make your own bullets :D
@@LAHover No pistols allowed for general bombing around, but Ruger 9mm PCC is legal in Canada !
Very Informative Video, It convinced me that these 2 stroke motors because of the 4 stroking issue at lower RPM would not be very good for a trail riding. Most trail riding is done at slower speeds and these motors would burn up prematurely from the 4 stroking and lack of cooling at the the slower speeds. Especially in hotter weather. A much better option would be an electric mountain bike!!!!!!
Thanks good information ☺️
I built mine with a Schwinn delmar. Rode it 5 mins then took it 15 miles downtown to court and back the next day. the last 4 miles the rear bearings exploded out. I replaced the ball bearings. Hoping it last
Our goal should be developing conversion kits for professional grade chainsaw motors. Those are rated for a minimum of 3,000 hours at full throttle and I have an old Husky with waaaay more hours than that.
Hey bro I recently subscribed to your Channel because you know what you're doing and I like a guy who knows what he's doing when it comes to the two stroke motor or motorbikes. In general so I appreciate what you doing I ride around on a 4-stroke motor bike a predator 212cc motorbike so keep up the good work man
Im building a 212 bike, is there any issues with the motor on reliability?
@@geshscale6068 hey how's it going most of the issues are going to have is with your transmission it will be either your alignment or chain rubbing on your metal frame to deal with it you have to add an extra washer or at the back of your tire both sides to keep it looking even or just on the side with the chain and you'll be all good I use a torque converter if the belt burnout is all good chain drive too slow for me Shane two back tires straight drive is not going to happen unless you got a welder and you can slide your engine all the way to the right but that's not necessary because of torque converter give you decent speed I've gone 54 MPH before I took my governor off it depends on what bike frame you use and the weight of the Rider I'm using a firmstrong chief cruiser it's a little extra wide but it's steel frame don't use aluminum framing I don't care do not use aluminum you steel frame bike only you're going to need help with the engine because it's heavy to get the alignment properly set and you want to move the gas tank off the engine so you can perform maintenance on the engine properly but once you get it down packed and you put it down right you ain't got nothing to worry about that engine is strong as hell going uphill downhill straight it doesn't matter
@@geshscale6068 I know my RUclips channel is not perfect but if you need me to put a video up on there just let me know and I'll go over to bike show you directly or if you wanted to contact me directly however you can on your we can do so and I'll tell you about the bike more the problems I went through
@@terryjoe323la That's good. I'm putting it on a custom recumbent, so speed I'm not so worried about. Its good to know that it climbs hills good. Im looking for a nice slow cruise up and down large hills.
@@geshscale6068 I never heard of that bike but I hope it's a steel frame bike at the same time long as you build it right you're all good any predator engines don't slow down you know they all speed in power going uphill is nothing be safe in your build always be safe use red loctite make sure you use red loctite and only use it after you got everything set in place
I love that some people are still proud of their firearms
When going over your gear for your trip and i saw your last but not least item i had to subscribe! I'm thinking about putting a briggs and Stratton on one of my mountain bikes.

You have great editing skills. Something I notice now uploading vids to RUclips😎
I would like to see a full day, sunrise to sunset, edurance test of a new YD100 motor.
Well I don't know about a fresh motor, but I have an all day ride planed for early/mid spring :)
It will probably be with this same YD100
I’d love to see a video on how you got your bike to be that fast or at least look the fast I can’t get mine to go that fast
My bike should be just about the same speed as others with a YD100 and a 26" frame (30~mph).
Here are three things that make it look faster. The gopro is recording in super view (extra wide angle lens), the camera is mounted to my chest (lower cameras look faster), and the angle is slightly down (seeing more moving ground and less sky).
;)
Racing carb and small sproket for speed
I'm on a 60cc with the same exhaust and stock nt carb pulling 35-40 and 40-45 on a slight down hill
Nice job going motor off walking around the water but hope it you were talkin about near your 30-mile marker I'm a fellow motorized bike rider myself man

@@LAHover Yup, Sticks, NorCal.
58 miles👀 whoa.
I'm going to try again this year, wish me luck :)
Have you ever looked at the mountain bikes they sell at Dicks Sporting Goods. I have one that I use as a mountain bike and they are really good quality. They do have disc brakes so I don't know how that would work. I think they are around 300 but they are and m tough and might be a good fit for motorized bikes.
Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to go on their website and check them out. I think I have one within 20~miles.
Have you seen the mid 1990's American mountain bikes, I use a 97 Trek 820 and handles alot of vibrations and I feel safe that it's doubled butted TIG weld Chromoly frame.. Chromoly is better than steel and aluminium.
@@LAHover i think he's talking about the aggressor
Good video.

get you a BPR6HIX by NGK. They are very resistant to this type of fowling, and last forever. but theyre 9 bucks.

Nice video sounds like you a a good guy keep it up!👍
Nicely done
Run it 32:1 and it will still be rich on oil just not too rich to where it could the plugs
Can I just say I'm English & hello to the U.S.A except the miserable old cow! 🤭 There's always one isn't there! Anyway about the bike, can I ask what motor cc it is & did you custom build the exhaust or is it stock? I enjoyed watching the journey & liked the narration along the way. Great video..... thank you from England. 👍.
You’re making me jealous I really want one of these things bad I’ve got the perfect bike for it
Wow what a feat! Great video mate!!!!
Even the bearings inside the pedal crank need's to be greased really good.
I'd love to try one of those motors out. Guarantee I'll tell ya what brakes in a week
Love your videos as I hobby build small engines bike kits I have a chopper and the mountain bike
1:11 *you have* _Alot_
of bikes. 😂
I have eight. From a 43cc Weedwakker ( weedeater) in a 20'' folding frame; 39cc OHV in a 26'' Cruizer Frame; 2x 49cc in Old stye Steel frames ( Humber); 3x 66cc in different frames and a 49cc OHV in an Aluminium frame.
lol I'm more likely to build a new one rather than fix and old one :P
Edit: The dual sport in not a bike, it's random bits of "metal" and plastic in the shape of a bike...
You forgot to pack a chainsaw!.🤣🤙
My YD 100. Didn't make it 100 miles. The little pin that is supposed to keep the piston ring from moving came out of it's hole and scored up the piston and cylinder. The bike just quit as I went down the road.
Just got my new jug and piston to replace it.
Actually it was one of the round clips that hold the piston against the connecting rod. Don't reuse those clips. I took them out to turn the piston around.
The pins are called gudgeon pins since bike's were invented and the clips are called circlips inner,, .
To use the correct grammar is better than making up names like thingy and sounding
incompetent, move up
Great Video Keep it up!
Thank you.
I really like the video keep up the good work
This is what I call a poor man's Honda Grom or poor man's dirt bike depending on what you use it for
Well said. Not nearly as reliable lol, but so much cheap fun!
Wish I could find trails like these in la county.
Well Friend I have good news for you.
Although it might not feel like it depending on how deep in the city you live.
But California is 45.8% Federal land, and has relaxed laws for these motorized bikes.
This means that you don't need to worry about being harassed by cops (assuming you follow traffic laws and stay under 25mph on public roads). It also means that you can explore ALLOT of places without the fear of trespassing.
@@LAHover what about in NC?
Trying to get my bike up and running. Can't figure out why the motor will start and run, but when I hit the gas it has little to no torque then dies IDK. Anyone who has any ideas would really appreciate the help. :)
Make sure you don't see any oil build up around any of the gaskets that might be causing a loss of compression.
Also make sure your choke is not vibrating on, allot of the carbs have lose chokes.
It might not hurt to take the carb off and give it a clean, they are known to have junk in them from the factory. Don't worry they are super simple and can be cleaned in less than 10 minutes. There are a bunch of videos on how to clean them.
@@LAHover Thanks brother. Going to look over it tomorrow. See if I can get this running. It's so nice out would love to ride :(
