huge gy6 aftermarket. it's what all the chinese scooters come with. and what people drop into the honda ruckus when they stretch em out and go 150cc instead of stock 50cc. this is really generalized, but to give you an idea... most of those chinese scooters do about 50 - 55 mph out of the box. a couple hours and a couple hundred bucks and they'll do 70ish+. you can go even way farther than that, but just like the predators... it starts to get exponentially more expensive. the best bang for the buck is in the drop-in 171cc kits that don't require case boring or oil/water cooling. have fun guys.
i had a Chinese 150 scooter when i was a teen and it was stock ..would run about 55/60 awalys wanted to do the bore kit to it but never did ..was alot better than my freinds 50cc ones ..and one had a zuma
Older gy6 scooters do 40-50mph here in Fin. Then EU kick'd in yo and boom, maybe 30mph. Gy6 is awesome engine, one day i will build a sleeper. 125 and 150cc gy6 is not so common here, have do some diggin to find one. You can get 100cc kits to 50cc gy6 but we need more.
True story When I was a kid, my Dad bought me a brand new Chinese buggy just like that. It looked awesome in the pictures and the description had a lot of good things to say. After waiting a few months for it to get shipped, assembling it and finally driving it. I was extremely disappointed. I was 15 back then. From there it just started falling apart. starting with the wheels, electrical, and cvt. Reliable motors I do have to say, but everything else is trash. I learned my lesson, and bought a KX250 instead for half the price.
compared to a piagio or a debi yes there trash but there cheap cheap and easily modded, run it blow it up rebuild it run it again all in the same day on 100$, and its the 50cc version that ACTUALLY sucks, the 150s dont blow up as much as the 50s
Izzy Stuart I will second that. I spent more time fixing the dam thing than I did riding it. Junk It will be interesting to watch an see what they say later.
@@frankierutherford1888 One of the biggest problems I had at the time was I didn't know much abut fixing bikes so I had to take it to a shop to get fixed but none of the shops would fix it so I had to learn how to fix them. I guess it was a good thing as it got me into fixing bikes!
There is a big bore kit to hop it up from 150cc to about 180cc have better cams and roller weights. Parts are pretty cheap. A proformace video would be cool I have all the parts but never have messed with this kind of engine before so not sure where to start.
@@edwardarsiaga3569 oh I plan to do that. Just got it back from getting a pipe welded for it. These guys and red beard just give me good ideas. I have a thunder kart with a predator now working on a tumberlin with the Gy6 long case motor
The problem with going to 180 is you have to bore the case and unless you find a good machine shop they will screw up bad. You can actually bore and stroke a gy6 to 232 but reliability suffers at anything much over 180.
@@user-neo71665 it climbed it wouldnt need to be bored. I haven't had time to mess with it due to work. But if it does I know a guy who can do it. I dont wana do to much to it and make it unreliable. Just want to get a little more out of it.
Ike, it was a pleasure getting to meet you this weekend at the swap meet! John, I’m sorry to hear you were under the weather. Maybe next time you two get a chance to get out of the house you can come visit Oklahoma! Heck, I can load up the homebuilt tractor project and show off my poor engineering! Haha!
The trick my grandpa taught me to get bearings out of blind holes like that was to pack the area where the shaft goes with grease and then tap the shaft in with a hammer or clamp. The grease would theoretically push out the bearing. Cant tell ya how many times that tricks saved me!
for upgrades look at places like the ruck shop, drow sports etc... any honda ruckus place for ideas and how to's. then once you know what you want you can always search the parts up on Ebay. and from what i understand the easiest big bore kit(least amount of extra stuff you don't have to change) is the 171. i would have left links but that always seems to make people nervous.
For these engines, there is everything to make a 250... Or more.... On the front pully the shaft sleeve... If you shorten it 1-2 CM it allows it to even grip more on the belt side..... And the clutch. There are little spings.. They come in all different types of strengths.... Also allows the clutch to grab even harder..
Where you hit on a bearing to install it is determined by what it's being installed in. If you're putting a shaft through the inner race, hit the inner race only. If you're putting it in a bore, hit the outer race only. 👍
Cars & cameras crew there is a Ton of after market for the gy6 150 there is a stroker kit with a 250cc bore kit an more cam an carb there is just a Ton of stuff u can do with it ... I got a gy6 50cc an i hop it up for the best that model can handle i ended up with 105cc with oversize headz as well as a massive HEAVY duty crank shaft for lol
Yall got that thing running PRIME!! Glad y'all like it. Theres tons of big bore options, all the way up to 232cc 20hp. But I think a 171cc with an A8 or A9 cam would work wonders. And I think an a10 is pure torque if what I read on scootdawg is correct
You deserve 1 million subscribers Also I have a gy6 dune buggy and that thing can fly I think yours can be a power house you just need to get the gearing right and put a big bore kit on it mine is a 200 cc run master
BMI KARTS has suspension upgrades for this kart for front end as well as adapters to put ATV wheels on which will allow you to put on much bigger tires. Of course then you'll need to put on a bigger sprocket to keep the torque it has.
I never got the 150 on mine working. Needed too much to get it going. But after seeing yours going I'm kinda glad I didn't. The predator 212cc does awesome. Lots of torque and power with the 212cc was tricky getting it in but once I had a plan it all came together fun karts. Love the size of these things. Cool video guys! Can't wait to see more!
Just a suggestion on using a socket and extension to install a bearing like that would be to put the extension in the socket from the other direction so that it give you more surface area to keep from having to make sure that the socket lines up to the bearing each hit.
Taida support GY6 aftermarket parts big bore, big valve head, 4 valve head, cam, stroker crank. You can buy a complete engine case (Gy6 B-case) from them to go up to 232cc
The front tires were doing a lot of sliding in the dirt, you might improve the actual turning by just hanging some bigger wheels on the front. And making a longer pittman arm on the steering shaft might be easier than relocating the pivot on the steering arms at the spindles.
put your socket on the extension the other way around and you will have more flat area to drive in the bearings, it works with 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4, and 1 inch!
Well the braket holdin my stock exhaust on broke so im runnin mine with no exhaust an its way faster then it was with it so addin an aftermarket exhaust would be best bc mine is super loud
@@danielthompson4446 Running with no exhaust at all is bad for the engine as it can burn the exhaust valves. In many scooters there are exhaust restrictions to meet EU/UK licencing requirements so removing it probably removed a restriction. Still i wouldnt ride it with no exhaust at all
A while back i read that you can grind a couple more teeth on the rack gear on the rack and pinion and its supposed to give you alot more turning radius without messing with the spindles
I'd like to go to it ...do you all look at your comments much I've asked ya a few questions but never got even a like from ya isaac did on his channel once but ya just curiouse cause I have a go kart fiberglass body I'd like to give you and isaac for a upcoming build but never a reply .anyways God bless and hope to hear from ya all

Nice got her going b careful with big bore kit the headstuds won't have enough meat n will pull out that's why I 420 clone swapped mine now she hauls great vid cheers
What I done to wake up my buggy. 26mm carb, ditch the factory intake and put a 12 inch long 1.5 inch pipe on it with a uni filter on the end. You will have to rejet it. 11 gram sliders in the variator. Yellow torque spring in the clutch, leave the factory clutch springs. A11 cam. I built my own header pipe but the factory one is restrictive as crap. Go at least one inch to a little motorcycle muffler. I have 23 inch tires on my buggy but drive it all over the place off road and it tops out at 40mph. Ya'll need to look at buggydepot.com if you want an idea of whats out there for support of that yerfdog.
Go Powersports has a video on how to install that reverse on a GY6. You didn't need to replace the axle however it looks that you would have had to replace the output shaft to a shorty shaft.
Based on my experience with the spiderbox, right off the bat I’d suggest getting HD spindles. Stock units are not up for bashing, also for what ever it’s worth, Suzuki Lt230 quadrunner front shocks are a perfect long travel replacement for stock they required minimal modification and are extremely inexpensive. I can’t wait for more spiderbox content !!
Hey guys. I learned from a fellow youtuber Chris Fix that you could press a bearing out by stuffing the inside with bread and grease, and then using a 3/8" extension to press the grease and bread inside. You keep adding bread and grease until the bearing pops out. I just wanted to bring that up because you could of did it pretty much for free instead of buying a special tool
My sons & I are ADDICTED to your channel! Genuinely inspiring stuff the way you guys commit to each build. Just wanna pack up my house in Australia & move next door to you guys! 😂😂 #somuchfun #carsandcameras #itllbefine Thanks for the hrs of entertainment & inspiration!
Yes . Its hard to avoid getting into these china bikes and their engines. I havent filmed any of my builds, But you guys have forced me to NOW. Lol. Thank you. The parts are beyond cheap, so dont be afraid. If u need a part seller for china bike stuff. I know a few companies.
Hey john and Ike I used to have a 150cc gy6 and I have a performance cam and big bore kit for it that’s used but I’m pretty sure still works fine all I did was put it back to stock let me know if you would like it I’ll ship you all my performance parts with the CVT roller weights
I have the same unit as this one i got it running. But was wondering is this thing supposed to have a petcock because gas runs out of the new carb and the old carb that i have. When it stalls out it recranks but not without screwing with the bowl screw on the carb.

They sell tons of aftermarket things for this yerf dog spiderbox gx150. Go to buggy Depot online they have a lift kit for the front it comes with new spindles and ball joints to re enforce the front end then it comes with front 4x4 bolt pattern hubs allowing you to put Atv tires and rims on the front and you can then get bigger coils for up front I got a 3 to 4 inch lift out of mine. The rear should already have 4x4 bolt pattern hubs you could take the atv tired off your project fourwheeler In your other videos and slap them on the back no modifications required! As far as the engine goes just some basic mods you can upgrare the carb to a larger carb that has bigger injection needles you can get a new cdi box that roves your rev limiter and also get a high performance ignition coil and spark plug. I've built several of these if you need any info on where to source these parts or info about the kart in general let me know I would love to give some information!
I felt like this engine was underpowered on my yerf dog so I swapped 2 tillotson 212's onto it, hopped them up a little and rebuilt the rear swingarm. Cost less than an engine rebuild that would put me at 5-10 less hp than I have now. Would be interesting to see a good video of a gy6 build and rip though.
Another great video. I was cool seeing you guys at pate. Y’all are just as awesome in person as you are in the videos. I can’t wait to see what performance mods y’all do to the gy6 because I might do the same to mine. The turning radius on my adult sized go kart also sucks. Thanks for the amazing content.
If you dont have a bearing puller jam a piece of white bread down in the hole use a socket backward square end first beat it in there with a mallet the bread will get bend the bearing and push it out bar soap works also so does grease but that's a mess job with grease
Weird and metric? Ha ha. Is it not you that's weird for not moving on. Most countries moved over in the 70's. You'll get there on day! Great video as always. Thanks
We aren't most countries. We and most of our ancestors came to America because we didn't like how most countries are or were doing things. Those of us who support President Trump still don't like the way other countries are doing things, particularly where freedom of speech, gun ownership, immigration, and globalism are concerned.
@@theoldfartschannel3692 Make America Great Again William. Join the dark Metric conspiracy! Ha ha. It's just alot easier to divide by and measure, but you do you. As for all the other stuff you mentioned I will leave that to you Americans to sort out. Good luck with that!
There’s really no reason to go above 155cc (58.5mm kit) Just drops in and with a nice big cam, high compression, larger valves and big carb they go really well. Boring the cases is a pain in the ass and 20cc ain’t gonna do jack. I have always stuck with the drop ins and haven’t had a problem yet. Just be aware they get hot and drive them with sympathy.

What about the lean mixture that can cause, especially if you add a better air filter.
Of course a jet adjustment in the carburetor will be needed
Well the braket holdin my stock exhaust on broke so im runnin mine with no exhaust an its way faster then it was with it so addin an aftermarket exhaust would be best bc mine is super loud

Hey john and Ike I used to have a 150cc gy6 and I have a performance cam and big bore kit for it that’s used but I’m pretty sure still works fine all I did was put it back to stock let me know if you would like it I’ll ship you all my performance parts with the CVT roller weights
I have the same unit as this one i got it running. But was wondering is this thing supposed to have a petcock because gas runs out of the new carb and the old carb that i have. When it stalls out it recranks but not without screwing with the bowl screw on the carb.

Put a higher ride level on the front wheels and that will also help with the steering
I’ve been wanting to see more about this kart let’s see some more videos with it
Definitely broke in those new Vans Ike! Love the videos guys!
They sell tons of aftermarket things for this yerf dog spiderbox gx150. Go to buggy Depot online they have a lift kit for the front it comes with new spindles and ball joints to re enforce the front end then it comes with front 4x4 bolt pattern hubs allowing you to put Atv tires and rims on the front and you can then get bigger coils for up front I got a 3 to 4 inch lift out of mine. The rear should already have 4x4 bolt pattern hubs you could take the atv tired off your project fourwheeler In your other videos and slap them on the back no modifications required! As far as the engine goes just some basic mods you can upgrare the carb to a larger carb that has bigger injection needles you can get a new cdi box that roves your rev limiter and also get a high performance ignition coil and spark plug. I've built several of these if you need any info on where to source these parts or info about the kart in general let me know I would love to give some information!
The trans case can be removed from motor if needed. Don’t tighten them to tight on the gears it will jam up.
You guys gave it about 25% lower gear ratio, decreasing speed, but raising torque & off road power. Now you need some knobby tires on back at least!
With that gearing you guys really need to put bigger tires up front and more aggressive out back. +1 for the Pee-Wee dance!
Very much agree with this. After the engine upgrades, it would be more responsive and nimble off road
There is a lot of upgrades for gy6 engines i have a moped with a gy6 that was originally a 49cc but i got a big bore kit now its 100cc
"I was expecting a lot worse..."
that's all the endorsement I need!!
I felt like this engine was underpowered on my yerf dog so I swapped 2 tillotson 212's onto it, hopped them up a little and rebuilt the rear swingarm. Cost less than an engine rebuild that would put me at 5-10 less hp than I have now. Would be interesting to see a good video of a gy6 build and rip though.
YUP, There is a big bore kit .. ENJOYED !!
Cool go kart 😎
U can put a big bore kit on that gy6 and aftermarket muffler too all on ebay and other sites
Y’all have no idea the market for these motors! Hahahahaha y’all are in for a surprise. Great motors and a HUGE aftermarket for them.
Another great video. I was cool seeing you guys at pate. Y’all are just as awesome in person as you are in the videos. I can’t wait to see what performance mods y’all do to the gy6 because I might do the same to mine. The turning radius on my adult sized go kart also sucks. Thanks for the amazing content.
How bout some knobby tires too. Maybe the front tires need to be a little bigger as well? Nice job getting it running, sweet deal for 150$.
Looks like it could use bigger front tires. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You should build a duelee 4WD for great traction in the swamp.just weld two rear wheels together!
You also need bigger tires in front to increase the ground clearance.
This is cool! i just bought one of these last year!
If you dont have a bearing puller jam a piece of white bread down in the hole use a socket backward square end first beat it in there with a mallet the bread will get bend the bearing and push it out bar soap works also so does grease but that's a mess job with grease
I have a manco helix with the gy6 150cc. It has built in reverse. Will hit 40mph stock
Now iam having a happy Monday😜😜😀😀👍👍👍👍👍👍
IMPRESSIVE OFFROAD FOR WHAT IT IS.
I talked to you at Pate's, great video, I just bought a Spiderbox and got it running, really interested in the reverse set up
Weird and metric? Ha ha. Is it not you that's weird for not moving on. Most countries moved over in the 70's. You'll get there on day! Great video as always. Thanks
We aren't most countries. We and most of our ancestors came to America because we didn't like how most countries are or were doing things. Those of us who support President Trump still don't like the way other countries are doing things, particularly where freedom of speech, gun ownership, immigration, and globalism are concerned.
@@theoldfartschannel3692 Make America Great Again William. Join the dark Metric conspiracy! Ha ha. It's just alot easier to divide by and measure, but you do you. As for all the other stuff you mentioned I will leave that to you Americans to sort out. Good luck with that!
There’s really no reason to go above 155cc (58.5mm kit)
Just drops in and with a nice big cam, high compression, larger valves and big carb they go really well. Boring the cases is a pain in the ass and 20cc ain’t gonna do jack.
I have always stuck with the drop ins and haven’t had a problem yet. Just be aware they get hot and drive them with sympathy.
