World's Smallest Mini Bike Build?? 'Lil Rascal Mini Bike Build + Rip!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- We're building our 'Lil Rascal mini bike from Go Power Sports! We paint the small mini bike chassis with hunter green paint and install a Tillotson 212 engine, and race it around the CarsandCameras Grand Prix! Note that this is not a racing mini bike, rather a cruising mini bike for around the yard, neighborhood, or swap meet. That being said, once you get used to it, it's a pretty fast mini bike!
Thanks for Watching!

My 9 year old son has become obsessed with this channel and we have started building these type of vehicles. Now he wants to start his own channel. I think it will be fun, thanks for the inspiration.
Hit me up on this comment and I'll subscribe when you do, dad's and kids working together is what this is about.
Nice bug btw
very cool. . they don't let down either. always something . little projects, big projects, and always something on the back burner.
Also your son just going through the back catalogue will teach him alot too. . starting from the beginning and growing with the channel is perfect for a kid!
peace, eric the Eturn
Definitely when y'all do, hit us up on this comment and I'll sub. That's The kind of cart channel I've been looking for
Thanks for the replies guys, I didn't realize people had responded until just now. I'll keep you informed. We have a go cart for my daughter planned for the first episode, and after that a Honda V twin lawnmower.
700 without a engine. Yeahhhhh. Thats waaay overpriced
especially when you can get a Honda50 for $500
Daaaang Son!
@Andrey Angere irrelevant,no motor,torque converter. Plus complete assembly. No thanks.
I would just spend a bit more and get a decent used farm bike on the fb marketplace.
Yeahh thats a little much for a roller by all means
Can't wait to cruise the swap meet with this bike next year!
Good job boys luv the vids
Yo
I wanna go. Whenwhere?
I love this channel
Hey y’all if you’re ever in Indiana hit me up I’m an old school pinstriper and would love to do this bike!!
I like the bike it’s just way to over priced for somethings without a engine. Or even a torque converter
cars n camera drinking game ... every time John says "DAWG"
I might not get alcohol poisoning but I'd likely be drunk.
they're out of their mind with that price
Right? like wth! Craigslist a dirtbike for that price
Everything on GPS is way expensive.....wouldn't buy anything from them.
@@mikeblaz agreed
I agree with you
@@mikeblaz Go try BMI Karts.
John's got a new word, dawg
Edit:not bashing the guy, just an observation, dawg 🤣
and it's about annoying !
I mean, I wasn't gonna say it...
Phew it's not just me that noticed
Make it a pin
I use to have a bad habit of saying God dawg homie lol Everybody use to give me hell 😁🤣😂
To the 1% who sees this have a great day
You too.
🤗😁back atcha✌🖖😂
Hey thanks bud
Thanks bud
thank you. you to
With no suspension and no engine, I just can't see it being worth the price. It needs to be $300 or $350, not nearly $700.
Maybe if it were aluminum I could see the higher price. But as a kit how you get it I absolutely agree with your price estimates.
350 gets you a monster moto 80cc. Typical bs markup.
you can get a coleman ct200u on amazon for $600 with a motor
I wouldnt buy one for that price exspecially without an engine
@@timothysmith3311 that's what my buddy did. Lot more bike for the price, but I got my duddle bug with the 80cc for 100 bucks used, 20 dollar pressure washer gx200, and all the stuff to.make it work, and sold it to a friend with 3 boys for... 100 bucks. I thought that was always the thing with this hobby, keeping prices low so kids can do it. Every time they go too high the hobby dies down again.
$100 used window air conditioner, fill in some of those cracks= that would be a major upgrade for you guys
pppfffttt 2 or 3 cans of expanding foam at around 30 bucks
I know and I’m from NC and you better believe that place is filled with critters with those cracks in the wall.
Nice work. Looks really good and reeeeaaaally makes me want one. The only thing I didn't like was where the tubing is pinched for the axle on the front. I can't believe they didn't round the corners off, or remove the burrs from the plate steel at the factory. The burrs aren't big deal, but irritating to a machinist.
Take that pin, remove the pin from the back and add double sided mounting tape and turn it into tank badge/ panel badge etc ;)
I like that idea yeah good thinking
7:40 it doesn't look like a John Deere. that is right it looks like an Oliver tractor
True that
I would have thought of that but our Oliver is green, yellow, and red!
True
Exactly what i said, Olivers were such nice looking tractors
Love to see you guys get another Little Rascal minibike... Use a Two Stroke engine on it instead. Should be fun to see you guys build it.
Red White Blue colors....
$700 without the engine is pretty pricey when you can get a complete bike for that and cheaper
Right dude lol I bought a CT-200 ex that needed minimal body work for $200 bucks that came with a like new Predator 212
TechHead97 yeah I bought a mossimo 200 for $400 with a stage 2 kit on it it tops at 41 mph
Donnie Creasey Heck I would rather buy one for that price than waste mad money on a little cheap bike like the rascal.
TechHead97 agreed although that engine is nice , if it can with the engine for that price I’d possibly think about but without it no way
yep i wish the would just offer the bare frame only, but then again i dont have $500 either
Hair spray works great for installing grips, lubes them up and kinda glues them on too. Old trick from my bicycle days.
Y’all should use that orange tractor and mow that damn grass
Lmao
Another way to put grips on is using hair spray. At the bike shop I worked it we didn't know about the compressed air thing yet so we used Aqua Net. It easily slides on when its wet and after it dries off it gets extremely sticky after about 20 minutes. And the only way to get them back off was to ether cut them or stick a small flat head screw driver underneath the grip and squirt more hair spray in there and work it around till it comes off.
John: "The humidity is so bad"
Florida man: "First time?"
Its not Humidity Season YET boys 😆
Dude NC humidity is no joke lol
*laughs in Wisconsin*
@6:28 grease will grab the dirt and grit and wear the bushings out faster than if they was dry , silicone spray works great for that
It’s called British Racing Green👍
9:39 Better motocross and street bike grip trick for ya from the year 1980... use women's hair spray, the pump kind. Spray the handlebar grip area and a little on the inside of each grip. When wet, grips slide on better than using compressed air, plus when it dries, the hair spray acts as a glue to hold the grips on.
Gold flake it and have it as a pit bike for when you race the drag kart.
If you would use hair spray to put those grips on, they would slide right on . Let them dry, and they won’t slip off while you’re riding. Learned that at a bicycle shop I use to work at.
Can we go back to buddy or Ike, I haven't heard this many dawg's since Randy Jackson was on Idol.
Oliver Tractor colors!!!! I love it!
I would guess you had some green paint left over from the cabinets for this build?
Just finished my first minibike build, after watching you guys have all the fun i had to get in on it. Doodle bug with a honda gx160. Lota fun.
John : (coked out in cheesey director mode) LETS DO THIS DOG!!
😂👍
Nice little bike.. looks good.
Pin stripe the wheels with a thin twin green lines.
White wall the tires.
The hunter green takes it from John Deere to "Oh Dear".
Hahaha
you mean "oh deere"?
@@112fail Right 😁🤣😂
Yep! They should have painted the wheels yellow. "Oh Dear!"
It takes it to we have a buttload of white and green paint left over from the John's monster truck and X-kart. We'll be seeing that for days lol.. (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
An old timer told me when painting rims with a tire beaded, use a old deck of cards to go around the bead. They fit between the tire and rim and keep the paint off the rim. Just a cool trick I heard and use
When are going to see the video of you getting rid of the oil pan killer rocks?
Cool Lil Rascal build Guys. I Ordered the Lil Rascal yesterday and picked up a Predator 212 today. Christmas present project for my son. I think he will like it.
I use hairspray for sliding on grips. Makes easy work of it. But, just guessing, y’all may not have any around... 🙂
British racing green🤔with Oxford white stripes. I dig it.
Could you modify the original Tillotson fuel tank 2 fit up top in front of the seat instead of that tank hanging off the back
Yeah then could have the muffler in the back. Butt warmer for the colder months rides. Lol
Using Zip-Ties is my preferred way to get BMX grips on. Just put a few inside and slide it right over, pull out the zip ties. No waiting for water to dry.
Wait! That muffler is going to interfere with the chain guard...Oh well, itlbefine.
The easiest way to get grips on handlebars (and provide a little "glue" to keep them on is to spray the bar with hairspray. The grips will slide right on, the hairspray will dry and the grips will be ON THERE.
Lol I like it that that you put the full kit on John on his lap well he does crash a lot🤣,it looks fantastic little bike great work 👍👍
That pin is cool, u should do a cross cart pin next.
I love your guys’ videos, I made a cool neon orange mini bike because of y’all
Monster truck pin for sure. Picking one up now
That thing rips like a cr500 lets race. Did build a pitbike in last series.
I'm willing to say, the Honda CR500 is way more wicked then that tiny thing. It only has 15hp, 5k redline, and smooth power band.
But the Honda CR500 has 60hp, CRAZY power band, 8.5k rpm!
You can decide what is more fun. 😉😃
@@calvinwright1816 yeah bro its like a joke
@@calvinwright1816 but your right
The whole bike looks awesome because my favorite color is green but the actual pull-start shroud I would have painted black to throw it off to the cover that covers the flywheel would of look dope.
You guys should come to Arizona, the part of California that is not on fire.
Akala Belany definitely not any part of California.
Nice mini bike, the color combo reminds me of the old Hess truck toys you could buy in the 90's at christmas time.
When I first heard the word "mini bike" this is what I imagined.
LS swap?
Cross Kart engine swap?
@@mopedmessiah Diesel swap?
@@THESLlCK Tesla motor swap!
@@mopedmessiah And that's where I draw the line
@@THESLlCK good, i was gonna say afterburner but i didn't know how much to escalate 😵
Definitely the dragster as a pin!
If you really want to kill the John deere vibes some gold flake would really make it pop.
This is one of the best built mini bikes that i have ever seen.
Rotsun Burnouts METALFABCREATIONS BUILDS SOME COOL STUFF TOO. DONT GET ME WRONG. IM A LONG TIME SUBSCRIBER OF CARS AND CAMERAS. THEY HAD LESS THAN 2000 SUBS. BUT WAIT TILL YOU SEE MFC.🛴🛵🏍
one of those days when one of those corona mask´s would have come in handy and actually braught at least some health benefit...anyway better then having to hold your shirt in front of your nose for that entire rattlecan paintjob...yes i mean you ike...lol
Hair spray works awesome to put grips on and it leaves them sticky so they don't ever move learned that racing hair scrambles years ago!!! Lol Great job guys always a pleasure!!!
Man go power sports I need one of these for my channel we could definitely put it thru the paces so sweet
When John said they needed a vintage mini bike to cruise with, I’d figure they would have rolled out Issac’s Hot Rod Mouse orange Duster Chopper!
We would have but its at my house
Dawg, isn't a good sound for you😂
I always love watching what you guys are up to. I have always used hair spray to put grips on dirtbikes. It doesnt slip around once dried like soapy water can. index cards stuffed around the rim can save time too when painting.
$700 without an engine.. wooo.
Its like they want to charge us for all the free stuff they keep giving all the you tube guys...
Good job guys......JJ......
Y’all are the best, 👍 if you think the same!!!
Hairspray is one of the best ways to put grips on, spray the bar and slide on and let it sit
I keep saying this, that things begging for a KTM 65 motor
i deal with humidity like that 24/7 here in fl. also a little hair spray will help put grips on and glue them to the handle bars so they don't fall off
Pov: your reading this comment in class
I’m at home but yea online class
Nope schools closed we got a hurricane comin
@@thethunderbirddirtcar_5718 louisiana too

THE Thunderbird Dirt Car _ schools closed cuz hurrican over here
You have made me think about starting to spray paint again.
I have not spray painted since 1979, but it may be in the muscle memory.
The usual memory has become a bit slippery over the years.
i just get bored with these minibike videos they are so foreseeable and borring
I woke up today with my projects going on mostly rc car machine work stuff and This was great to watch great start to my morning thanks guys! Love the mini bike!
There has been a lot of these “Do as we say not as we do” lately just saying
I'd say that's a C.Y.A. thing.
I am a Old School bike mechanic and i use hairspray for putting on grips.
That shot with the bike following you guys on the cart was sweet. You chaps should invest some time in making a dedicated camera-cart - super-soft suspension, quiet engine, and a rear-facing or maybe even pivotting passenger seat, all that!
Hairspray is great for fitting grips, dries like a glue to
Yell did a nice job on that little bike looks good
Thanks
U welcome
The Tilly and rascal are like the caddy of minis
Just get a 212 and mount some wheels, and throttle and brakes and hang on for dear life. IT'LL BE FIIIIINE!
I won't clear over rustoleum rattle can any more - I've been burned too many times. Primer, 3-4 really light coats a few minutes between each, last coat nice and thick - as thick as you are comfortable without getting runs. Done.
Hairspray for grips 👍🏻
I used to use Hairspray on the grips. Helps it go on easy. Than when the hairspray dries it’s sticky
You should camouflage paint it.. that would be cool
i love how you snuck that header in there guys in the fast motion when the clutch cover got in the way..lol. "it will be fine"..LMAO
I really dig that chain guard.
Minimal but sporty lookin
Every time I watch you grown men driving your little motor bikes, I think of that jingle "I Don't Wanna Grow Up, I'm A Toys r us Kid"! 😮
A million toys at Toys R Us that I can play with! From trains to planes to videogames, it’s the biggest toy store there is. I don’t wanna grow up, because if I did, I wouldn’t be a Toys R Us kid.
Man it’s so tiny what a awesome lil mini bike
Rattle Can Followed by a HairDryer! Bake that paint on aye👍
Hairspray in the grips is another #protip, it lubes it at first then dries so it doesn't come off.
Little monster truck pin would be badass
Got that same seat on my Db30. It's comfortable as hell..
Grip install- use hairspray . They will slide on and when it dries the grips will never rotate on you, when you need to remove them again use more hairspray
Fellas... Nothin Runs Like A Deere!! lol Have to say that I don't mind it at all! Just needs some JD Stickers!! lol the Yellow wing stripe and BAM!
I like when ya think things out like the valve stems on the correct side It sucks when ya don't think things out before hand and have to take things back apart Great job guys on this awesome mini bike 👍✌️
I use Amsoil Break In Oil for my Tillotson 212 an after break In I use Amsoil Small Engine oil 10w30 100% Synthetic Commercial Grade. Run Awesome with Tons of Torque 💪😏
The Purple Dingo for a pin 😎😎😎
It looks like a castrol gtx theme. White green and black. :)
That’s hunters green looks great
Old guy trick,
When painting wheels with tires on them. Let out the air pressure on the tire and break the bead. wrap the entire wheel/tire with a trash bag, use a screwdriver, or wedge tool, to shove the bag into the bead gap.
Inflate the tire some to tighten it up.
Blade cut away the excess trash bag to reveal the wheel.
Paint the wheel as you want.
remove the trash bag and fill up the tire, resealing the bead, once the painted wheel is dry...
Once you figure this technique out it's faster to do then it takes to read this.
rinse repeat.
I flipping love that fox mini bike of yours John!!! I cannot believe that you scored that mini bike for $150!!! OMG talk about a freaking come up dude!!!
Love this build. Just built a doodle bug with a predator 212. Very similar.
The buzz from painting is half the fun.
Since it’s hunter green now you have to put a British motor in it. 👍
"Oh! Shoot!" As he narrowly misses a tree.
