That brought back some fine memories! I remember when I was a kid back in the early seventies. Me and a buddy doubled up on his Bonanza BC 1300 SH and rode about 25 miles, at about 2 am to meet our girlfriends. For those who don't know what a BC 1300 SH is. It was just about the coolest mini bike you could own in the 60's/70's. It had a 100cc Hodaka 5 speed two stroke motorcycle engine on it, and would do over 50 MPH! Those were the days, back in Ohio as a 13 year old kid. I'm now 57 y/o living in Arizona, but I haven't lost the bug for mini bikes. I'm now building a BC 1300 SH clone from a BC 1300. And for the guy with the "why would anyone over 10 y/o comment" you must never have had a passion for anything, because things like this never leave your soul. Tear it up my brothers!
I had not had a mini bike in years tell 2 weeks ago I bought 2 ended up traveling to my mom's to dig my old one out of her barn stopped by harbor freight for a 212 to bring her back to life I'm 40
We had a lot of homemade ones that look similar to theirs. I remember crashing on my friends. We had a throttle that was a straightened copper hanger tied on the frame next to our inner thigh and no brakes. It was all Flintstones when it came time to stop. Those were the days Man fun times😂😂😂
@alex You moron you don't wear helmets to protect yourself from your own bike. You wear it to protect yourself from OTHER PEOPLE AND UNSUSPECTED THREATS! It's common sense
In the 70s lots of us in my hood had minibikes,we road in the fields and on neighborhood streets. Cops never pulled us over. They always had better things to do then.
Man, back in the '70's we used to ride them everywhere. Sometimes get caught ,sometimes they drive by... I miss those days.. That Cop was MAD COOL though.. He just trusted you would push them the rest of the way.. Hope someone was able to come pick you up .. looks like you covered a good piece of distance .. Nice video..
AirTimeEh did you invoke your constitutional right to travel? Look it up you might be surprised at what you find out! How ever these minibikes should have brake and signal lights and mirrors to make them more compliant with the road
Constitutional right to travel. I must have missed the part about mini-bikes in my law classes. Why don't you try that sovereign citizen crap and post some vids of how it works out?
These bikes are far from 49cc they were made for off-road use only not to be used the same way as a car and has to travel under or at 20mph max no faster and not even wearing a helmet well damn you get hit or fall off at the speeds your traveling at well you better pray to god because your either dead or really fucked up there just young and dumb kids and it's all fun and games till someone gets hurt so drive a little safer next time because you may not get another chance to
I enjoyed this video as if I were riding along myself! Bravo to you guys who made it, not for the quality of the footage but for the quality of fun you guys seemed to have. I am a fat old gearhead that still has a cheap Chinese pocket bike with a not so cheap dangerously fast engine. Having seen this video I may have to take it out and meet some of the new partolmen in my area. God bless you guys, all the best to you!
some cool dude friends on an adventure with their freedom bikes....awesome! live life to the fullest guys.....these are the memories that you look back on when you are old!
+fernando meneses To make them street legal you have to have turn signals & headlights. Then since they are more then 50cc displacement you would need a MC endorsement.
I've got a few "old school" stock minibikes but they don't go anywhere near as fast as you guys. Two of your bikes look like Bajas but with different engines. What motors do you have and what modifications did you guys do to them to get them to go like they do?
I remember when I was a teen back in the 70's, minibikes were hugely popular in New Jersey (and most everywhere else). We used to ride our RUPPs, Honda CT70 and SL70s, Kawasaki 75's everywhere, and when we got pulled over, the cops would tell us to walk the bike home. Now here in Ohio, I see adults riding these things up and down their streets, so they are making a comeback. Lots of Chinese Z50 and CT70 clones.
That's a really nice cop. In my neighborhood, the police will pull you over and confiscate your minibike from you. You guys are also nuts for not wearing helmets.
You really need to get yourself a couple of main jets, and keep going down in size until you start getting the throttle response you are looking for. Once you achieve that, go to the next smaller main jet. See if response improves. If it's still slightly rich, THEN move your needle clip up a notch. If it gets better, but not perfect, move it up another notch. If not, move the clip back down to where it was, and go with the next smaller main jet, and repeat. Here is a sentence out of the link from what is probably the best description and troubleshooting guide I have found: "If the engine is having troubles at low rpm (idle to 1/4 throttle), the pilot system or slide valve is the likely problem. If the engine has problems between 1/4 and 3/4 throttle, the jet needle and needle jet (most likely the jet needle) is likely the problem. If the engine is running poorly at 3/4 to full throttle, the main jet is the likely problem." There is a reason that needle has five grooves on it. Don't be afraid to use them.
its cause they dont have head lights tail lights or mirrors i actually went to the local police station and asked the police cheife my self in my area he sais as long as it goes 40-45 and has head and break lights and is about 50 cc(yeah like there gonna actually look up the serial number if its unmarked) then it can be riden on the side of the road NOT on the road it self
man how far was it to get ice cream looks like a mission bro. Jk Those look pretty funny riding bt look pretty kool riding together. Chk out my team bruhh
I you had a 50cc engine or smaller engine, like those cheap scooters that everyone is riding around, you can ride those on right on the road and not get pulled over at all. Not as powerful but you can ride it anywhere. I remember being pulled over in the '70s for riding on the street. Got 3 tickets, probably about 13 years old.
It depends on which state you live in. There are 5 states it's illegal to ride any type of motorized bike (pedal assisted or not) without registering and insuring it. Pennsylvania and New York are two of the states.
Well that is your state I know the laws are very different in each state in mine you'd be going right to jail on if someone say you riding because the people around me don't have a life and like to ruin everyone else fun
I envy you... That looks like so much fun... I disagree with riding on major streets or highways but man, that's so cool. I always wanted one of those exact types of mini bikes when I was a kid. I think that people should be able to ride them on side/neighborhood streets, though. That cop was very cool and just told you not to ride on the roads. He was smiling, and I'll bet he was wishing he was riding with you guys. Why not? Mini bikes are fun and harmless when rode properly. Thanks for the vid. Almost like I was with you!!! Please be safe and cool, so more cops react like that one did.
This officer must be the safest one I've seen just to allow you to go on your way - over here they will be taking it off you just for having the engine running without being on private land lol
actually Walmart started selling them I think their like 300-400 or something you can look it up they come with a 97cc baja engine you have to give a little kick off to start moving but can get up to around 35mph I took the governor off mine tho didn't test it with it on lol their best little things and heck if you don't want it in mini bike use the engine and make a gocart lol possibilitys are endless if you have time tools and imagination XD
thats what i have and i think its alright but im 17 , but here in a little bit im gonna put a new engine in for cheap and make it go faster have a lot more powe8
***** ... Dual Sports rock. 250cc are nice. Much more expensive than minibikes though. Minibike lovers like the inexpensive nature of them. Which is sweet.
Sears, Taco, Gilson Brothers, Rupp, I've had them all, mini bikes ARE cool, but no lights, no mirrors, what made you think you WERN'T going to get stopped? You guys are lucky that cop was cool, in the city they would have been towed, and maybe sent to auction. In the 60's a lot of makers of riding mowers made them and carts too, Frame, engine, tires, chain, seat, (same parts, different arrangement). Nice video!
you need to check your state laws on how many cc's you need a license for. here in arkansas we can ride 200cc and smaller without a license. but it needs to be up to code for traffic safety. working lights and blinkers and must be able to keep up with the flow of traffic.
here in Philly People drive dirt bikes, quads, all kinds of off road stuff right in the streets, Often in groups of people of 20 or more. Its crazy in the nicer weather. The police don't even chase them. they are not allowed to. the policy thinking its more dangerous trying to catch them. It is wild. A lot of the People can really ride too. See them doing wheelies and all kinds of stuff in and out of traffic.
The debates about how someone else is supposed to have fun is great if you are 14 or 15. These guys can choose to ride whatever they desire, and on this ride, they chose minibikes. You Sherlocks should have looked at the nickname of who uploaded it-'pacnorwest Minibikeclub' so that should have told you something before clicking on the video. That being said, my only criticism is the fact that you are surrounded by trees, and I presume, trails...why aren't you guys riding offroad on the trails?
That was cool of the cop to let them off like that. They were in my eye's doing wrong however some people would argue that. Again if they were spray painting a building or carrying a gun or doing drugs then I would say there wrong. They are kids having fun.
Most people are saying "its not worth watching the whole thing". I my self actually liked the whole video. maybe you can do another "running" video but not get stopped by the police. Haha. Thanks
grate mini bike sip gas depending on your mods but if you keep it stock (except removing the governor) then you can ride all day it takes 49 cents to fill my gas tank to full and I can go for 3 hours before I finally get down to a quarter and my lid leaks gas! so they do realy good lol

That must be one of the most down to earth cops ever! Bet he had a mini bike growing up! What a great guy!
There is literally nothing better than feeling the motor bumping and watching the ground move by you on a mini bike
Pulled over ? You road up to a cop on lunch break eating donuts listening to Celine Dion
No helmet. Riding on oncoming shoulder. Riding on sidewalk. No bueno.
Your that on of those humans ugj
@@Astro80s ITS CALLED COMMON SENCE LMFAO

Mini bikes are just a blast to ride around on.
Brian Mccann I have never road a mini bike before or a pocket bike :'(
They are fun. Inexpensive too. Just dont be in a hurry getting around.
+nevan TheGamer ton of fun bro save up money and buy ur self 1
They are fun indeed.
Fun fun fun that why people ride them.
Damn was hopeing for cops on mini bikes...
lol "riding to silverdale in Washington to get icecream and we got pulled over by the cops"

I was really expecting the cops to be on mini bikes.....

From now on, I will refer to mine as my 'Freedom Bike'. Thank you!
I think there enough mini bike riders in this damn country to make these street legal. Let's band together and get our bikes legalized.
+fernando meneses To make them street legal you have to have turn signals & headlights. Then since they are more then 50cc displacement you would need a MC endorsement.
+BBBYpsi and the seat has to be at least 2 ft off the ground
I'm with ya on that one recently started to get into mini bikes don't know why I didn't earlier in life their fun as hell to scoot around on lol
damn right
hell yeah!
that cop was actually really nice
Ah amazing! Looks like loads of fun, sun, icecream and minibikes!
This is the coolest video I have seen in days...
thanks.
People complaining in the comments must of never had a Mini!
That was a cool cop...but why the hell were you guys driving down the wrong side of the road, I bet the cops wouldn't of been so cool then
They see me Rollin they hatin
That is one nice cop. Damn.
I've got a few "old school" stock minibikes but they don't go anywhere near as fast as you guys. Two of your bikes look like Bajas but with different engines. What motors do you have and what modifications did you guys do to them to get them to go like they do?
damn that was exciting!
What are these bikes? I'm looking for a good mini moto that is 50cc and around £200 any suggestions?
Which pocket bikes do you guys have
What model of minibike is that? I've been looking for one like that and not like the usual street bike lookn' things...
I remember when I was a teen back in the 70's, minibikes were hugely popular in New Jersey (and most everywhere else). We used to ride our RUPPs, Honda CT70 and SL70s, Kawasaki 75's everywhere, and when we got pulled over, the cops would tell us to walk the bike home. Now here in Ohio, I see adults riding these things up and down their streets, so they are making a comeback. Lots of Chinese Z50 and CT70 clones.
what engine did you put on your mbx 11 ? cause i know thats not a stock motor i put a 5.5 on mine n it kinda sounds like yours
That's a really nice cop. In my neighborhood, the police will pull you over and confiscate your minibike from you. You guys are also nuts for not wearing helmets.
Ed Kaye no it should be legal in every state if under 49cc
This happens to me all of the time lol. Even got one towed lol
That's a nice long way travel, but u forgot ur ice cream , lol !
A cool Sheriff deputy!
Where do you guys get parts from!? I'm looking to get my mini bike back on the road. Please reply!

You really need to get yourself a couple of main jets, and keep going down in size until you start getting the throttle response you are looking for.

man how far was it to get ice cream looks like a mission bro. Jk Those look pretty funny riding bt look pretty kool riding together. Chk out my team bruhh
is that orange one a Baja? what engine is that? and did you have to redrill the motor mounts
Yes. It's a Baja Doodlebug, with a 212cc greyhound engine swap. And yes we had to redrill the holes.
The Sheriff seemed cool. Good way to respect the authorities.
What kind of mini bikes was everyone using?
I got frigged over like this as a kid in BC Canada it was almost $1000 in fines till I wrote a dispute letter and paid $0
lol :P you guys go that far with ur minibikes? ahaha.
What are those mini bikes exactly called??!
Community policing at its best. Big thumbs up.
I think I missed the part where you got pulled over😂
ahh those were the days, i miss my 5hp mini bike. i rode that thing everyday. keep riding
which mini brand/model of mini bikes are you guys riding ?
I believe they are Baja Racers
Baja doodle bugs with predator 212 cc 6.5 horse engines from harbor freight
I have a Motovoc and it is by far one of the best minibikes you can get nowadays for under $500!
what make of bike is this and what model is it?
where did you get those mini bikes
What happens if you get stopped more than once?
I you had a 50cc engine or smaller engine, like those cheap scooters that everyone is riding around, you can ride those on right on the road and not get pulled over at all. Not as powerful but you can ride it anywhere. I remember being pulled over in the '70s for riding on the street. Got 3 tickets, probably about 13 years old.

No Helmet No Respect!
no helmets? that's just plain stupid
Russell Kenyon I think we need to tell the aquarium they have a few squids missing.
I saw this a year ago just realized it is just down the road in old town silverdale. Wa being a scooter guy i like the video.
Were you on a base? I see the Navy Exchange gas pump in the beginning.
yes sir!
can you drive them on side walks legaly?
Ryan 1234 no unless it's 49cc these things are easy 190 to 200cc
U can drive a dirt bike on the road an mopad as long as you have the orange flag an lights not illegal in my state
Well that is your state I know the laws are very different in each state in mine you'd be going right to jail on if someone say you riding because the people around me don't have a life and like to ruin everyone else fun
Whats the name of that type of mini bike?
im jealous. it looks like so much fun! how fast do they go?
That orange halls ass ,cool video
thanks. and I know right! the orange one doesn't have a governor so its pretty fast.
Yea I have 2, I build them myself they are taco 22 replicas , and one has a 6hp in it ,and on small wheels it's kind scary.
Hey if you know any links where I can find parts,that would be cool. Finding parts and ,engines, wheels,extra is kind hard to find where I live.
sq hunter just look for go-kart parts., it's the same thing that's what I use
cool
That looked fun as hell!
That cop was mad fucking chill
How slow was the mbx11 stock?
where can i find one of these bikes ?
I envy you... That looks like so much fun... I disagree with riding on major streets or highways but man, that's so cool. I always wanted one of those exact types of mini bikes when I was a kid.

you couldnt even ride for 5 minutes in my area longisland ny is strict they even impound electric scooters
in Maine, if its under so many CC's you don;t need a license, or plates. its's considered a bicycle.
Only thing I'm concerned about is no helmets
When you got pulled over did he ask for license?
what kind of bike?
This officer must be the safest one I've seen just to allow you to go on your way - over here they will be taking it off you just for having the engine running without being on private land lol
That cop was so cool.
Where can you find one of those mini bikes for sale ?
actually Walmart started selling them I think their like 300-400 or something you can look it up they come with a 97cc baja engine you have to give a little kick off to start moving but can get up to around 35mph I took the governor off mine tho didn't test it with it on lol their best little things and heck if you don't want it in mini bike use the engine and make a gocart lol possibilitys are endless if you have time tools and imagination XD
I have a 212 cc minibike , and my brother has a 420cc on a mad dog frame and we don't get nothing from the cops here in san diego

im 17 as well, I rode my neighbors and It was sick. I think I'm going to save the money towards a dual sport motorcycle instead
organ
***** ... Dual Sports rock. 250cc are nice. Much more expensive than minibikes though.
Minibike lovers like the inexpensive nature of them. Which is sweet.
And see, nobody got shot or harassed by the cops know why? Cause they acted cool and not entitled.
BMW Mac .... Thanks for those links. I'll check out those sites later. Saved them.
We're did they buy the bikes from ?
you can get them from Walmart for about 400 easy to keep up on so it's worth the money in my book lol
Tim krauser lol you can get them from their

do you have any mods on that motovox?
Coolest cop I've ever seen.
What kind of bike is thay
cool cop.. Not fake. We got the same thing every day when we were kids.. Walk em home.
At least the cop was nice about it that is a nice cop
how fast do they go
Did they just give you a warning or? ?
you need to check your state laws on how many cc's you need a license for. here in arkansas we can ride 200cc and smaller without a license. but it needs to be up to code for traffic safety. working lights and blinkers and must be able to keep up with the flow of traffic.

Nice ride and sound.
how well do those run on gas
grate mini bike sip gas depending on your mods but if you keep it stock (except removing the governor) then you can ride all day it takes 49 cents to fill my gas tank to full and I can go for 3 hours before I finally get down to a quarter and my lid leaks gas! so they do realy good lol
