what the hell is he talking about forward peddling cranks lol what are you gonna do peddle sideways ???? he means the bottom bracket is set more forward on the frame
Hacks to save time. 1.Instead of taking the clutch covers of the engine, engage the clutch with the hand clutch lever provided and place one end of the chain into the engines sprocket and rotate with your finger the under side of the engines sprocket so that the chain rotates outward and chain comes out the other end. 2. Hide the white wire off the CDI if you are not going to add any head lights to your bike. Coconnect the colors that match first and then connect wires that appear to be ground to the black one for example brown or green. then you guess right their is one wire left to connect I'll let you figure that one out. 3. Allow enough elasticity on your fuel filter by placing decent amount fuel line hose to avoid any stretching and disconnecting the line and having to replace the hoses and spilling fuel. 4. If your engine is new it will take some time to start make sure to open the fuel line and to open the carburetor. Gas tank opens to the right and carburator opens downward on the lever.
A mechanic told me that if I'm not confident that i can finish the project, i can do all the parts that dont remove the chain from the bike and do the engine and bike part last. Would that be smart or just take on the project in a day
Tip: at 11:21 when he says to remove the flower nut you have to hold the clutch pedal in while pushing down on the cover to free up the flower nut, I was stuck with that problem for a couple of days until I watched another video on clutch troubleshooting so I thought I should share my experience
So I've went into the rabbit hole. Ordered the stage 4, got it.. inspected it and assembled. Now just waiting on my Nel Lusso to arrive. This is gonna be too fun
It's always good to take some old bike tire tube that's cut into strips and wrap them around where the tube of the bike where the engine touches the frame between the engine and the tube on front and back, it helps reduce vibration a fair bit and shake and it keeps the engine from digging into the metal of your bike tubing
I will be getting a motor sometime in the future for my bike, and I saved this video for that time. Very simple to follow, steady camera, and not rushing.
This was the most excellent , thorough, and helpful "how to" video that I have watched. Amazing job, you guys. I wonder if it would be possible for you all to make a video that explains how to install the brakes. Getting it to go is one thing, but there is a real problem if I can't stop it. Thank you guys so much.
I bought the 100cc anbull kit...the kit was missing about everything ...so in luck I had most of everything I needed from my old kit...well this video has helped me in putting together my bike with the parts left over
i appreciate this video. i just bought myself a zeda 80 firestorm kit, and it looks like after a couple watches, I should be able to do this without a problem. I love how in-depth it is, and how nicely the video is set up. thank you again for the help, cant wait to start riding
I made the mistake of listening to people and watching videos about building a bike. They said never use rubber motor mounts. Big mistake as I had nothing but problems the whole time. Finally mounted it with them and it made all the difference in the world. Always always use rubber when mounting a 2 stroke.
I couldn't help but notice this in reccomended videos, makes me want to get one now even though I have a 125 already! Really good tutorial, one of the best well explained tutorials to date!
Just got one of these and mine came with the sprocket tool as well as the front mount piece you just put on your engine. So far pretty straight forward
I bought one of these motors for my mountain bike and find it fascinating that the parts that they now send out for different compared to what I had received back in the day. I guess they're trying to improve the motors functionality.
I actually bothered to do the math and the calculator says the instructions translate to 3.125% oil per volume, I usually add 4 oz. of oil to a gallon of gas (conveniently measured by a mason jar :p )
I built one in January 2020. I have probably ridden 200-300 miles since. I ran 16;1 fuel for 2-3 tank-fulls and then moved to 20:1. The engine likes the 20:1 mix and it doesn't smoke at all. It's important to check tightness of everything frequently. Head bolts need a little tweek every few rides.
why not use thread tape or thread lock? you can even use double nuts to prevent loosening. and if your really brave use some JB weld behind the nuts on the thread after you tighten them for a permanent solution. Loctite 271 was made just for this.
no no no, don't use 20:1. using 20:1 will give the engine less power + your engine will have a huge carbon build up inside your cylinder and exhaust ( it will also cost more ). I suggest something like 30:1 watch some videos and find out. 😊
Compared to the instruction manual that came with my kit. This video is great. Thanks you saved me a lot of heartache and confusion. Here is a tip: When in installing the sprocket I measured the distance from the threaded shaft to the end of the teeth at 180 degrees segments. When measurements equal, this insures that the sprocket is centered.
I'm actually going to be buying a bike next month that a local here built in Canada Way Down East. And I'm pretty sure the whole shebang came from you. At least the motor and whatnot definitely did. So believe me when I say this, you have Canadian customers. Already have one that I'm working on a building and whatnot but I think it's still a good idea to have the backup. And I tend to trust it where a good chunk of it was built by you bikeberry then the rest of it was put together by a very experienced person. I'm good with the motors as I'm a certified small engine mechanic. However I'm still learning the rest of it which is all very much important. Like making sure your sprocket gets mounted correctly and true so the chain is within its parameters, things like that. And that's where your videos help a lot as well. Therefore I do trust anything that comes from you
Of all the videos and info I've looked up considering these engines this is by far the absolute best there is. My bike is nothing like these new easier models lol. It's a fat butt Shwinn Stingray and I still got it mounted within an hour of watching this. Tho the electric wiring part could be a tad better in explanation as not all the engines come with those colors and it's rather easy for newbies to cross wires. Other than that absolutely awesome job on this 👍
...funny how I had to figure all this stuff out for myself(especially the carburetor assembly) and my build with gas tank Kreem coating took 3 days NOT 2 - 3 hours, like it says on-site, lol. My build was on a Schwinn Errand and it was perfect, not a thing wrong with it. I got speeds of up to 41 mph, until I burnt the brushes out.
18:1 should be 7.1 oz oil to a gallon. 24:1 would be 5.3 oz. Too much oil leans out the fuel mixture since it's getting less gas and will run hotter, so more isn't better.
best tutorial out there.... had I watch this the first time I would not be going back as I am now to correct things :) thanks for taking the time to make this vid!
When I put my sprocket on the spokes I did it by taking the rear wheel off the bike, fitting the sprocket, plates, bolts, rubber ect loosely then refitting the wheel to the bike to do the alignment.I find if you attach something to the bike's rear frame near the sprocket (ideally a DTI gauge but lol I held the hammer against the frame) and rest it on the big sprocket so its just touching, then turning the wheel it will let you see how much the sprocket is out by and let you adjust it in both up and down and left and right directions until you have it done up right. The manual with mine said the tolerance is 1.5mm (but not in which direction?) which was easy enough to achieve.
@@walkerfharris built 4 since then with a 5th ready to be built. i using an rat bike with oversized frame and tires. just trying to figure out how to mount the engine

This is Great. Very well explained. But I must say the Part about the electronics was a little to fast. I just got myself a racing bike in pretty bad shape. I will restore it and add a motor to it :-)
Hi guys! Thank you, this is a great tutorial. It explains a great deal. I got a kit sold to me without the rubber spacers or the universal mounts and it just won't fit. Where can I get those so I can proceed with the build? Do you sell them separately? Thanks!!!!
u did such a good job with this video I think even an OLD Woman (like me : ) can fix my 2 stroke bike now! Thanks 4 taking the time 2 do this & posting it on-line!
I agree with the comment about the tools used in this video but on the other hand compared to other videos I've seen this one is comprehensive and easy to understand. As I said in my last post this video saved me a lot of heartache. As far as the electrical there it's that much to it without getting into a technical explanation of how it all works. I personally just wanted to install the kit and get it running. So I would give this video an A minus which is still very good. Additionally FYI there is a lot of info on the internet on these motorized kits so spend some time and do some research before you get started.
Great video thanks! I'm just wondering if something was left out during the editing of the end of vid. The fuel mix ratio wasnt shown or described in any detail.
Around 110 years ago or so the motorcycle morphed out of the pedal bicycle fitted with an engine of one or two cylinders. The engines used were usually four stroke.
I recently bought an 80cc motor from you guys. Did everything the way you guys did it. Starting up the motor jolts while it idles and when you gas it, it's at the same speed as it idles, but no jolts. I see the reviews on Amazon and the description. Some people said they weigh 200 and they are going 40mph. I weigh 140 and I'm going at a walking speed 😑.
Adjust the idle screw. It sounds like the screw is not set right or the throttle may have not been assembled right. Triple check the throttle in the carb.
I scored on an old road bike from my work. (moving company.) Downside is- the rear wheel has a 3 spd internal drive hub. But upside is, I have a 26 Sun ringle wheel I had bought but never used. Should work decently if the wheel fits the old bike I found. Plan on riding it to, and from work. Should be fun, even in the snow. I'm going to try and find a use mountain bike with a straight hard rear frame so I can use that in the snow.
@@J_Jim-mo3ub That's wrong. A 66 cc (80/100 cc don't really exist for bicycles) can go up to 80kph or 110mph if tuned right and built right, out of the box it can go 50kph 80mph or faster.
@@Dartoras Sorry I reversed it,Yeah, I wasn't going for exact, I was guessing. And one thing I do know for sure is that 50mph on the speedometer is about 80kph, so I' m not so far off. But I did mean kph when I said how fast the motor is. I remember catching a ride with U.S. citizens in Canada, they didn't know what kph was, so they were driving at around 110kph, lucky they didn't get stopped. But we got far, pretty fast.
@@darrylkinslow5613 I did not want to offend you, I live in the EU and with so much content in the US on the Internet, when I saw it, I thought it was just miss written
Jacob Butler yeah that could work... ive kind of stopped using my bike cause of the chain constantly falling off bc its never aligned, and also gas leaks a ton with these things
@@arjunyeleshwarapu ... Leaking from where ? Fuel Line ? Heat up the line before putting it on either end. Once it cools it shrinks tight. Pepcock leaking ? Tighten it. Still leaking ? Gastank posts ? You over tightened the gastank posts to the frame...
I'm currently mounting a similar engine on my 1970s cruiser bike and oh boy has it been a challenge but I think I'm almost done all that's left to do is the electrical and clutch
Man oh Man , I really noticed this guys voice has that distinctive East LA Chicano accent , makes me home sick ... you probably did not even notice but it is a Hispanic Los Angeles Dude talking ! ... video was made in a suburb of Los Angeles !!!
NinjaViking1 yes, but if you look at pics of traditional "board track racer" bikes of a century ago, the flipped bars were "how they rode 'em". On a beach cruiser frame it gives that vintage look, especially if you wear a backward "duckbill" Tweed hat (or kangol), and round lens or "red Baron" goggles. Those puffy thigh riding pants too, lol. Style points count you know!
Cables are not long enough Had to do something. Also it will be nice when that wire tie breaks at the chain guard and it gets jammed up. Your asking for a crash!
Awesome video. Made my installation an absolute breeze. Question: can these engines go out of timing? I did a test run, chain tensioner came loose, locked up chain. I fixed it and now don't have any spark... Thanks for any help yall
I would also put thread locker on the exhaust manifold and anything with a gasket so the head gasket bolts and the carburetor intake. Had experience with these booth coming loose and the exhaust falling off! With thread locker no problem at all
Yeah, but what way to go...Out in a blaze of glory while riding free as the breeze on your MB. :) I've never had good luck getting these running right off, and some, never. They're some of the touchiest engines I've ever come across, it's either an unknown problem, or parts are bad, so getting them to run long enough TO blow myself up might be a welcome event :) Agree, the least of your worries.
Hi. I'm a paraplegic and use a wheelchair. I would love to do a build like this but I would have to start with something LOWER with THREE WHEELS. Kind of like a trike. Have you ever heard of this being done ??? and what are the chances of my success with this project ??? I'd greatly appreciate your info and advice if you are able to give it. Thank You. Sincerely, JAMES.
Yes I have one but for a trike build I would recommend a 49cc 4 stroke engine if you want to ride in residential areas because near me they hate all my dirt bikes three wheelers and motorcycles etc.
Actually. I do. And I Horde those Shits Like Fuckin Diamonds. I have one simple rule. I don't lend out my tools... Period. Plus. I don't have kids... Soooo that's saving me a lot of heart ache...
@@arablakba6988 yeah for 2-3 months then i rode it basically everyday i was adjusting the spark plug and snapped off the hook saving for a new plug and a pull start because the wheel size is 20 inches it has to be rolling down a hill to start
Very good! Harbor Freight has some seamers that are well made but inexpensive. They make quick work of bending pliable brackets. Do you sell the link removal tool?
I will probably (?) never build one of these bikes (though I have the perfect old bike I'd do it to), but nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video for some reason. Really interesting.
I love the way you said your oil is as follows the oil mixture And then there was nothing there
he aligned the cut in the rubber right where the plates meet for the sprocket ....would not have done that but whatever
what the hell is he talking about forward peddling cranks lol what are you gonna do peddle sideways ???? he means the bottom bracket is set more forward on the frame

I'm going to try and find a use mountain bike with a straight hard rear frame so I can use that in the snow.
Why am I the only person who wants to know how fast this thing goes?
Around 25-30mph
@@J_Jim-mo3ub That's wrong. A 66 cc (80/100 cc don't really exist for bicycles) can go up to 80kph or 110mph if tuned right and built right, out of the box it can go 50kph 80mph or faster.
@@darrylkinslow5613 One mph equals exactly 1.609344 kilometers per hour (km/h). refresh you numbers..
@@Dartoras Sorry I reversed it,Yeah, I wasn't going for exact, I was guessing. And one thing I do know for sure is that 50mph on the speedometer is about 80kph, so I' m not so far off. But I did mean kph when I said how fast the motor is. I remember catching a ride with U.S. citizens in Canada, they didn't know what kph was, so they were driving at around 110kph, lucky they didn't get stopped. But we got far, pretty fast.
@@darrylkinslow5613 I did not want to offend you, I live in the EU and with so much content in the US on the Internet, when I saw it, I thought it was just miss written
Someone please get these kids a set of wrenches for Christmas! And also have santa show them how to cut and use zip ties.
guy bodman ok boomer at least he’s working with his hands and learning
These kids did a good job stop hating
Cant agree more. It's a "how to Video". Pliers on a nut or bolt are not a good "how to",
Love this thing so much
I like the Seth Bike Hacks type music. It fits well with video
at 20:00, you said the fuel ratio is as follows, but said and showed nothing? What's the ratio?
There seem to be various comments on the ratios. I have been reading the ratio should be 16:1 (8oz to 1 gal) and 20:1 or 24:1 for normal riding.
3 oz of oil per gallon
vilhis
Its 16:1 in break in (16 L gas to 1L Oil) and 20:1 after break in (20L gas to 1L Oil).
xTurboHD how do you put all that in a 1.5 or 2.5 litre tank sorry I'm a noob at this
i think its every 16 L gas its then 1 L oil
Ca you upload a vid of how you do this on a
Mountain bike or can you try and explain to me of how it is done
KSpooners it’s similar but you won’t be able to change gears. if you keep your derailleur, but remove the cable it’ll work
@@arjunyeleshwarapu why cant you change gears. Mount the shifter behind the throttle, it has a set screw
Jacob Butler yeah that could work... ive kind of stopped using my bike cause of the chain constantly falling off bc its never aligned, and also gas leaks a ton with these things
Exactly the same as this one.
@@arjunyeleshwarapu ... Leaking from where ?
Fuel Line ? Heat up the line before putting it on either end. Once it cools it shrinks tight.
Pepcock leaking ? Tighten it. Still leaking ?
Gastank posts ? You over tightened the gastank posts to the frame...
I'm currently mounting a similar engine on my 1970s cruiser bike and oh boy has it been a challenge but I think I'm almost done all that's left to do is the electrical and clutch
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS MOST HELPFUL INFO!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Cool vid guys!!
Man oh Man , I really noticed this guys voice has that distinctive East LA Chicano accent , makes me home sick ... you probably did not even notice but it is a Hispanic Los Angeles Dude talking ! ... video was made in a suburb of Los Angeles !!!
Check out his other vids you will see and hear him
it is a very well made video ...I like the back ground music , cool marimba jazz lay back sounds ...LOL
Matthew Schurter , thanks!
rentatrip1 really appreciate it, man. Thanks for the kind words!
is it just me?
or are the Handle bars "up-side down"?
NinjaViking1 yes, but if you look at pics of traditional "board track racer" bikes of a century ago, the flipped bars were "how they rode 'em". On a beach cruiser frame it gives that vintage look, especially if you wear a backward "duckbill" Tweed hat (or kangol), and round lens or "red Baron" goggles. Those puffy thigh riding pants too, lol. Style points count you know!
It’s just you
Tucking down helps weight distribution & with wind. This is a good compromise vs drops. Kudos to these guys.
Cables are not long enough
Had to do something. Also it will be nice when that wire tie breaks at the chain guard and it gets jammed up. Your asking for a crash!
Lastly, prepare for spokes to be taken out because the cheap ass China made chain twisted.
Gotta love the cracked motor mount to the frame at 6:35 - 7:25
Subscriber # 39,264 looking forward to seeing y’all again
Awesome video. Made my installation an absolute breeze.
Question: can these engines go out of timing? I did a test run, chain tensioner came loose, locked up chain. I fixed it and now don't have any spark... Thanks for any help yall
Might have damaged whatever part transfers the mechanical energy of the chain to the magnetic electric device.
#1 DON'T use a Zip tie for the Chain guard! It'll break off! Use a small hose clamp. #2 Use BLUE LOCKTITE on ALL NUTS AND BOLTS!!! Your Welcome
theone2be33 thank god, he should pin it so nobody gets hurt
You're welcome**
You are welcome ;P
Also you could just use a better zip-tie.
I would also put thread locker on the exhaust manifold and anything with a gasket so the head gasket bolts and the carburetor intake. Had experience with these booth coming loose and the exhaust falling off! With thread locker no problem at all
Superlike, explained so well. Very informative video
What is the fuel ratio? It doesn't say...
Most agree around 35:1
Some people also say 40:1 but do what you think is best.
32:1
I would love to do this but i'm afraid i'm going to blow myself up.
Hahahaaha
nah, thats the least of your worries
Yeah, but what way to go...Out in a blaze of glory while riding free as the breeze on your MB. :)
I've never had good luck getting these running right off, and some, never. They're some of the touchiest engines I've ever come across, it's either an unknown problem, or parts are bad, so getting them to run long enough TO blow myself up might be a welcome event :)
Agree, the least of your worries.
Sk0dus Stuff haha

Thanks for the video helped me so much in building my bike
Thank you, just the video I needed
Legends watching after 9year old😂😅
Guess what. Watching in 2024
I bought your stage 4 and I hate that sticker “this is made for racing” I tore that off and bought a 49cc sticker
That's to get around emissions laws, by classifying it as a racing part rather than a road vehicle part.

This video helped a lot thanks
A lot of helpful useful tips there cheers
I wish someone would design a brake caliper that would work with the chain drive sprocket.
Energy Nut grow up and do it yourself
Can you make a list of the tools needed?
Great video! I have a white wire coming from motor. 50/50 chance of getting right. Does it go to blue or black? Thanks
Thanks heaps. Hope I have the skill to get her started though. Cheers
Hi. I'm a paraplegic and use a wheelchair. I would love to do a build like this but I would have to start with something LOWER with THREE WHEELS. Kind of like a trike. Have you ever heard of this being done ??? and what are the chances of my success with this project ??? I'd greatly appreciate your info and advice if you are able to give it. Thank You. Sincerely, JAMES.
5 years and still waiting huh ? Damn i just subscribed too
Yes I have one but for a trike build I would recommend a 49cc 4 stroke engine if you want to ride in residential areas because near me they hate all my dirt bikes three wheelers and motorcycles etc.
Buzz Clark the 49cc 4 stroke kit has a pull start so you won’t have to pedal to start the engine
Curtis check my new comment
you will need an electric front hub motor to kick it over
Is this supposed to be some kind of joke…? Everyone knows that there isn’t a single person on earth who knows where their 10 mm socket is
This post literally sent a shiver down my spine.....its always a 10
I always know where my shit is
We went through 10, TEN sockets.
It's almost like they're disposable. One use.
Actually. I do. And I Horde those Shits Like Fuckin Diamonds. I have one simple rule. I don't lend out my tools... Period. Plus. I don't have kids... Soooo that's saving me a lot of heart ache...
i got this same engine for my schwinn occ chopper, kinda had to modify a little bit
Hello man, thanks for the video, i wanted to ask you whether i can install the engine on a chopper style bike with a smaller size wheel than 26"
I wiegh 315 I'm a big guy do you think this motor would pull me along bad?
You will be fine I'm 260 and I've road a weaker engine at it its top speed
You'll be okay, but you'll look silly as hell
0:30 hahahaha I’m doing it on a bmx
Did it work
@@arablakba6988 yeah for 2-3 months then i rode it basically everyday i was adjusting the spark plug and snapped off the hook saving for a new plug and a pull start because the wheel size is 20 inches it has to be rolling down a hill to start
Very good! Harbor Freight has some seamers that are well made but inexpensive. They make quick work of bending pliable brackets. Do you sell the link removal tool?
I will probably (?) never build one of these bikes (though I have the perfect old bike I'd do it to), but nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video for some reason. Really interesting.
got the engine waiting on a bike lol

Other way around right here😂
