- hey all, today I make another motorized bike. In this project I am using a generic box-store bicycle, and heavily modifying the frame to accommodate an 11 horse power ONAN Montgomery engine. the engine was made in Brazil and is probably around 50-60 years old! Let me know what you think of the project!

Hope you like the Project! let me know what you'd like to see in the next part.
Cool project. Thanks. Do you think that motor is too much for the frame?
I’d like to see you build a Chopper from the ground up or turn a motorcycle into a chopper
You should try an electric bicycle build after this
I wanna see u try and make a amazon 2 stroke motorized bicycle kit as fast as u can turbo supercharger porting windowed piston reeds it could be cool
@@The-Maestro-Bob-Cobb we apologize for the grammatical errors presented in our video
In the video I heard your comment about having been welding for about ten years and the welding isn’t getting and better. I was a welder. In 1982 I went to City College in San Diego, on the G I Bill, and took a 9 month combination welding course. Since then, I’ve worked in repair shops, fabrication shops, for ship repair companies repairing and modifying Naval vessels, bult structural parts for commercial buildings, and built pressure vessels for the oil and gas industry. In addition, I was Training Coordinator for an innovative welding machine manufacturer teaching welding supply salesmen and women how to get the arcs out of those machines.
Getting beautiful welds does take skill and knowledge but, in my opinion, this can be acquired and learned. For the work that you do, thin steel tubing, fairly light gauge brackets, and the like is a specialized area.
Like all welding, joint and material preparation are key. A proper joint almost insures a good looking weld. This and the best process for the work at hand.
Chrome Moly Tubbing for aircraft frames, and bicycles, are still welded with oxy-acetylene welding. A slow, but exacting process. Some brackets and components are Brazed.
So, I’m here to tell you, your welds can improve in quality and appearance but only if you focus on the process and quality aspects of each joint and material.
You didn’t ask. I hope this was helpful and encouraging.
thanks for the info! It's definitely just lack of due diligence on my part as well.
Don't forget the tig process .That iswhat I use on my projects for the most heat control.
With 11hp and a torqaverter, this is easily a a 60 to 70mph capable machine. Changing final drive ratios will accomplish that. Great build!
I wouldnt wanna do that
11HP will EASILY do 80mph with the gearing right with that low weight
With that frame geometry, it would be twitchy, and what I mean by twitchy is scary dangerous.
@@SHAGG13Do it then
@@SHAGG13 its not just hp this thing obviously has WAY more torque then a normal high powerd bicycle engine
thats going to be a beast
sure is!
I'm so glad you're still building motorized bicycles
Same here!! 🙌✨️💪
Same here! ✨️🙌💪
Yea.. Except it's NOT a bicycle, he turned it into a Motorcycle. Motorcycle framing, motorcycle chain and sprockets. It's no longer a bicycle.
I did a Bicycle with a 10 Briggs and stratton back in 1972, Its How I got around. ran great, Motor came off a hay baler.
That is badass. I was hot into mini bikes exactly then, and this would have killed me.
Some disc brakes would be a good idea. Another great build. 👍
that's the plan!
Brakes are for Sissy's
@@OliverMotorized Whew - this is a relief to see!
Over 60 years ago, saw a bicycle converted to engine power. Engine (somewhat smaller than 1hp) was mounted on a hinged foot platform just above where the pedal axle was the on frame. The actual drive was v-belt and pulleys, not chain and sprockets. Pressing downward on the foot plate/engine mount allowed tensioning the drive v-belt to engage the rear wheel.
the belt HAS to be a lot less carnivorous when it fails.
New to your channel. I've actually been working on a project and while i've built full motorcycles before, motorizing bicycles for some reason is feeling strange and alien to me. Watching your content and other similar channels has really helped me shake off the hesitation and now i'm diving in full send.
Too fun! Looks like a project I should tackle over the winter :) .. Looking for Ep. #2 next .. Fun
This motorbike build is so awesome. Always wanted to build one. Looks so classic and cool.
Nice video Oliver! Your bike is looking awesome, good looking frame layout 😊👍
thanks mike!
Those spokes are so strong to take the power of an 11hp engine ripping at them, and the holes in the top tube wont weaken the frame at all. It was fun watching the build though.
Thats a frkn power bike... Beautiful engine, thx man
"We need a bigger engine." Cheif Brody.
In all seriousness, it's not a question if that frame will break it's when it will break.
Murphy's laws of combat say If it's stupid but works, it's not stupid.
i'll second that!
Great job! Your builds get better every time.
thanks!
Love it Oliver! Good to see you again! Thanks for serving Sir! Peace.
Instead of bondo to conceal welded joints.. use JB Weld.. smooth off with a flapper. Worked great for me.
Very cool. If I didn’t have a wife three kids and two dogs to worry about I’d be a lot more like you building cool stuff with my time. Definitely enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work!
understandable, hopefully you get some quality time to yourself every so often. thanks!
@@OliverMotorized isn't that what dogs n' kids are for?
Super cool boardwalk racer handle bars.
You sir, are a GENIUS !
Or a Metal GOD 🙏
Damn good build! I enjoyed it all keep em' coming
Awesome, Ollie!
Always love your work, and VIDEOS, AND EDITING!.
👍
Appreciate that!
I tried this a few years ago and it didn't end well . I used a universal 50cc motor and it wasn't powerful enough. I don't have all the equipment you have . Excellent 👍
so badass never get tired of watching these
What a cool project :-). One thing I would think about : The fuel tank is screwed to the frame on one side and to the motor on the other side. I would recommend not to do that, because the tank will act as a fixture between the rattling motor and fix frame and could be damaged by that.
Looks Dangerous.😳 I freaking love it!!
I can imagine that on a three wheel bicycle. That would really highlight that nostalgic motor, fire engine red 😮
Great to see you’re still uploading man! i remember watching your videos in middle school, about to graduate college now😂
Haha that’s great. Mechanical engineering right..?
Thanks for the video Sir 🫡 bout to knock the dust off the tools and start a build soon 👍🏽
As a kid in the 70's I put a 15hp Briggs & Stratton motor from an old Sears SS15 tractor on a Rupp RST100 mini bike we found in a junkyard. Having motor cycle type wheels and brakes made it easy but we didn't have any fancy clutch, we just did a direct drive with a #41 chain and a huge front sprocket. We'd push start it and hang on. That thing would bring tears to your eyes as it got up to speed. We never clocked it but figure about a 24t to 36t sprocket drive on a 24-25" od rear wheel. About half throttle was about as fast as any of us got it going, the knobby tires would shake something terrible at higher speeds and the brakes were about useless on that thing. We had to fix the rear suspension when we fitted the motor because of chain interference, we just replace the rear shocks with two pieces of bed frame angle iron. We tossed the tiny fuel tank for one off a Honda CL100.
I think we were about 10 when we did that so we were also light which made it even faster.
After a few times getting chased by the cops on the freeway on it I traded it for a proper bike, with brakes, an older Yamaha xs750 with no paperwork that we turned into a trail bike of sorts instead.
sounds like the good ol' days!
i'm hoping the yammie 750 was a four-stroke.
How cool is that! Used to do this in my Dad's barn circa 1970. Man we had fun.
this is fun and cool ....heavy... but cool. ya may as well just make your own frame at that point....theres no limiting factor if you just totally chop and replace 85% of the frame hahah i made a 1930s schwinn into a motor bike with a jack shaft, foot idle clutch and 5 speed cassette gear on the back wheel... in th 1990s when I was 12, like 26 year ago lol. no welding ....all bolts... only had to cut the center post out of the bike with a hand hacksaw. I used c channel stock as bolt on extensions for the rear jack shaft and had the hubs laced into smaller bmx heavy duty frame keeping the springer front end and interhub front brake just in smaller wheels. Gear shifting is like any normal 10 speed but only 5 speed in my case. single long tube pipe exhaust sounded cool. the jackshaft sprocket teeth wore down from sand on the dirt roads though. i should get it back operational...show of a pre youtube build on youtube. haha
This is a really cool project! For the love of everything motorized buy some PPE. You eyes and welds will thank you. Harbor freight hood gets the job done
he was wearing his squints.
This will look so nice when it's finished, good job. /Per Lidberg Sweden
I agree completely!
Alicia Antoniadis also from Sweden. God fortsättning på dig Per!
Thank you very much!
@@OliverMotorized You are so welcome!
I'm wondering about the power or torque impulses through the power train to that rear spoked wheel with no rubber cush-drive in the hub like almost all motorcycles have?
This is the most sketchiest project I have ever seen, but I absolutely love it for what it is and I'm all up for it
That design looks great with that big honking motor in there. Definitely add some disc brakes.
How on earth do you only have 44.6k subs? You deserve so much more than that. Ive been subbed for years and i personally think you should be over 100k.
Maybe one day haha, thank you
11hp and CVT, I can’t wait to see this on the highway, you will be passing cars! Some RedKote will take care of that tank. The build looks awesome, please wear a helmet 👍
Arc welding with out a face shield.... enjoy your cataracts.... your eyelids don't stop the uv rays
eyelids are over-rated. cataracts are inevitable if you are old and live in california all your life.
Great channel! Wish you were closer I'd love to build with you. It's hard to find people who like building motorized projects out of garbage and scrap. It's definitely addicting.
Get a Room
I greatly appreciated your honesty about the Bondo 😂😅😊
Pretty cool if you're just planning on driving in through cornfields. It would be illegal on the road in every state.
who's going to catch you?
Awesome stuff, that thing is gonna move lol. Would love to see some more builds with gears! Manual shifting is always a ton of fun; but i can sure appreciate the simplicity of a torque converter!
yes agree! This old motor seems like it deserves some sort of manual transmission. I'll stick with torque converter for now, and maybe in the future ill figure something else out
That looks like it's going to be fun. Good job. That's a nice looking old engine as well. If your welds look crummy maybe a welding class would help you out. It looks like you've done a good job so far. 👍
thank you. this is an inspiration i needed to get back to my own build.
great to hear!
Thats sick, tough i suggest getting a good front fork. A lot of people have died from a broken front fork.
I was thinking about that too, definitely a weak point. thanks for the suggestion
one of those old schwinn forged forks would be way stronger.
11 HORSES!!!!! Hahahaha I LOVE IT!!!! Soooo much power
Hurry up I'm dying to see how fast it goes LOL by the way I just subscribed that's a pretty awesome build
Thanks for subscribing!
Where is can't figure out why you bought the bike in the first place though I do think this is an amazing piece of work looks so cool man
A brick kickstand. A brickstand.
Dude you're amazing. Subbed.
What a scary looking machine. Looks more dangerous than one of my H-1s.
There’s almost nothing left of the original bike, but cool project.
You should try a porta-band saw. Pretty cheap at harbor freight. 80 to a hundred bucks. Great video! Love the CNC!
i've seen those and have wanted one. but I have a spending problem haha!
Looks Great!
Thanks!
great work, I like that you almost always use a pretty much regular bicycle and turn it into something very cool and extraordinary, I will say (not that you don't already do this) but make sure you tighten the bolts on the rear sprocket adapter all the way and use locktight, I made a schwinn occ chopper bicycle with a 125cc 4 speed and the torque of the motor broke the spokes on the rim but I see you used a heavier duty rear wheel good job.
good call, I usually I don't add thread lock until I know everything is where it needs to be. but i'll try not to forget haha
Love your choice of music !
thank you
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MOTORIZED BIKE FTW!
I like it so much I subscribed!👍
thank you!
Only just found your channel. I love it from a uk fan 🎉
Thanks for subbing!
My dad bought us a monkey wards 125 riverside motorcycle in the 70s where I worked at in the auto dept, we made some non power go karts as kids, been wanting to make a gas motor bike, great project brother
nice! Motorized bikes are fun little projects. Thanks
Nicely slapped ! 👍
haha thank you
@@OliverMotorized You're welcome ! :)
Very cool!! I would have used a motorcycle frame though. I would have saved a lot of trouble....and lost half the fun!! I wonder if it could be done with a driveshaft? I am thinking BMW or Zundapp.
Way more expensive, heavy, bulky and really wouldn't save that much headache considering most motorcycle engines mount from the sides or back instead of bottom.
This is cool , , IN Kansas drivers handbook on page one has the motorized bicycle and they actually allow 150cc .😊
Your videos are awesome, keep it up
thank you sir
Ja pierdole ten silnik na stole wydawał się w chuj mniejszy 🤣🤣🤣a to bydle jest ogromne 🤣💪
Have you ever tought about building a motorised Fat tire bicycle?
Really nice video as always.
And this bicycle is gonna look insane when finished.
I did that a number of years ago, but I didn't really like the result. maybe it's time for a retry.
@OliverMotorized Count on me watching the retry!
I had to bend out the back on my bike to fit a thicker tire, so I used a car jack and it worked great!
I like it !
Jeez! You just built a bike from scratch! You never needed that walmart bike at all.
it was a helpful template though!
Brakes? We don't need no stinking brakes!
Kinda looks like you replaced the bike frame with your own design. Good job
Very creative!
1:10 LOL Man after my own heart.
❤This i gotta see to end❤
I have the same respirator. I got it from my daughter and it has filters more suited for medical use (I think). There are many different filters that fit, but I'm not sure which ones to get. What do you use?
That looks like a lot more work than my brother and his friend did to get my even older brother's 1950's motorbike running again. We ran it at the old Mitchell Field Air Force Base in the 1960's. We started with a 1HP Clinton and later went to a 2HP Briggs and Stratton. I still have the engine. The bike frame was stolen.
That’s a great story. I love hearing about those kinds of projects!
@@OliverMotorized Then you'll love this. This happened sometime in the late 60's. That brother and friend that did a lot of work and spent some money to get that motorbike running split up and divided the bike up. My brother took the Briggs and the friend got the frame. I think my brother should have taken the frame as that was the one that got all the work done on it. The friend put another engine on it and was riding it near his neighborhood when some random teen asked if he could ride it. He rode it, to parts unknown.
amazing work, just saying though my first motorcycle was 90cc and weighed nearly 200 lbs, it had 5.5 hp and had brakes on both wheels, it would do 60 mph, that thing is going to be terrifying
I wish you’d put some custom metal work to strengthen all those joints!👍
Very Nice!......I'd Go With A Lowered Pan Seat With 2 Shocks For Comfort & The Schwinn Chopper Style Handle Bars....Would Look Like An Old Board Track Racing Bike...JS.
sounds cool - like the handle bars you see on the old schwinn stingray?
the lines of the frame turned out well. To help your welding invest in a quality mask from a welding store. you can see way better and its not so dark. From a metal fab guy and welder for 20 years. just found your channel. subbed.
I am WELL overdue for a new helmet. thanks for the advice!
legal. bem feito nos mínimos detalhes.
Hella fun project.
I think if you start your circles on the cnc plasma in the opposite direction it’ll solve your oblong circle problem
hmmm interesting. i'll try it
Your my inspiration oliver.
🫠🫠 me too
appreciate the comment!
Walmart bike of Theseus
Iam 82 and i cant do anything like this boy you are good thanks
Glad you're back at the 2-wheeled contraptions. I've enjoyed all your previous builds. Do you end up keeping them or finding them new homes when you're done?
me too lol . if I really like it, they stick around for a while. otherwise, I either sell or repurpose the parts.
@@OliverMotorized That's good; glad you don't have a huge graveyard out back where they're just rusting away!
You made soup from a stone on this one mate. There is nothing left of the original bike lol.
Yes . . . a beast.
Great video! Thank you!
You're for sure gonna want brakes on this beast. GOOD brakes!
yep, the rims I got have mounting hubs for disk bakes!
I'm excited for cool exhaust, and mabey a charging system.
I got a snowblower in my shed from the 90s my father barely used it, I’m not sure the size of motor but it’s the good one of it’s day, I want to get a welder and build a mini chopper
do it! welders these days are relatively cheap
Two -Stroke !!
@@OliverMotorized I know I have the skills to do it, and if I need help I’ll ask some one, then I’ll build my motorcycle I been dreaming of
Great job bud.
Merry Christmas and happy new year 🎉
Right back at ya!
They still make this engine im pretty sure. Its appears to be a licensed clone of a briggs and stratton model 14, 19, 23 series engine. They are still made in 3rd world countries as "16hp I/C" engines
oh interesting. wonder if I can get parts for this one.
@OliverMotorized New old stock and new parts are available and pretty plentiful for a 75 year old engine.. (Edit) I took the liberty of doing a bit more research. It appears these are a unlicensed Brazilian build copy of the briggs model 23. With a few differences, they were built due to a onan company business venture in Brazil that started in 1970 and ended in 1980. Your in Canada right? I don't think they could legally se them into the US because briggs was still making them.
