Studs on what? Gas tank? Or head/cylinder studs ?

I don’t recommend using red loctite on cylinder studs or them cheap acorn nuts. The fuel tank you have to creep up on the proper tightness. Which I have a not original idea on my next fuel tank install. I’d have to make that video form.

@@ColdStartGarage The studs that screw into the bottom of the engine. Yours were already seated, and mine aren't. They're also BLACK, cuz, I got the ULTRA kit. Didn't you say you got the ULTRA, but just the engine? Yeah, the studs are a problem for me due to asking myself, if and how much they need to be seated. Why wouldn't I use red loctite on them? I mean, they're never going to come back out, and hardened studs RARELY strip at the top. I'm using the loctite on the universal adapter I picked up as well. I can always use the remover they sell to dissolve, and then clean so I can use it again.

Ah ya. I jammed two nuts together and Ran the studs in until tight. I used red loctite. A torch will break em free if I ever need em too

Plumber tape was mostly for vibration and clamping friction. If you never built a bike before. Don’t over tighten the gas tank. The welds will fail and you will have a nasty leak. I would not add anything to your bike that will rob HP. Like generators of any such. Unless you don’t mind the sacrifice. They do have quick rechargeable headlight for bicycles, they don’t look as cool. But they are very functional and practical.

@ColdStartGarage So, about the generator, you don't know either, eh! 🤠 Hey, not even the makers of the old lights have this info >>>> I have been diligently looking for over a week now, nothing! They sure are NICE, 'today'.. 👍 I think I'll try and find a used one, and see what happens before I spend the $90 on a NOS one. I'm very curious about this. Btw, I went to Walmart yesterday to get some 2 stroke oil, and the damn thing burnt my hand when I picked it up >>>> $12 pt. >>>>>> are they NUTZ, or just pushing an AGENDA? 🤔 I then went to Autozone, $6.qt. I would say, an AGENDA! Oh yeah, I live in California 🤮

Been sitting since then. I still have it. Have not had the drive or the funds to get it going…..Yet

I bought an open face retro style. It’s a bit lame. But these machines are not suppose to go over 12-15 mph. I feel like they try to kill me. So I dress for the worse case scenarios.

I believe anything is better than nothing. But while riding a bike without a motor crashes tend to happen from a car crashing into you. Being we push 40mph on these. And a bunch of China parts holding them together. Dot for me. Just to keep my brains in my skull

@@ColdStartGarage Just thought I'd share that. I priced bicycle helmets at Walmart and they were more expensive than a motorcycle helmet on marketplace. Of course it's used and probably needs de loused. Lol

So I’ve been told. I do appreciate you looking out for my machines 🤘🏻🏁🏁🏁

Side note. This machine was stolen out of my driveway couple years ago. Sad days

Cool beans brother I have a avenger your going to like it

I tuned it down in my full form content

Ya I discovered that. Thanks for your insight anyways! 🤘🏻🏁

I get roasted by the people on the internet about using marine grade. They say it’s because marine grade is water cooled. I say the only differences is marine grade is for the fishes 🤣

Got a link? Coldstart83@gmail

Put your base spacer on correctly. I have 3 videos on this. Part 1 is complete build part 2 is refinements and fixing mistakes part 3 is rejet of makuni carb

I have all the links to what I bought on my full assembly build. If you are interested in just seeing my set up.

@@ColdStartGarage Yeah, I saw that spacer mistake you made >>> a handy video 🤣 I still have to learn about this kit we both own, and what can or cannot be upgraded on it. The head >>>> other than the stock one in the kit, they offer a round one (you have) for better cooling, or another square one that's 2 lbs. heavier >>>>> I have no idea what the difference in the two are. Then there's the Magneto & Carb >>> are there better ones than the kit offers? Thamx

@ if you are a rider of these machines. You should hone the cylinder and upgrade the cooling. The Minarelli clones are known to heat seize. Mind your break in properly

Facebook forums on these minarelli are information gold. Keep that in mind

First time with a serious approach to rattle can. It can be done… even if it’s not ideal! 🤣

Was no good in boxes.. and pretty terrible without brakes and proper charging circuit

Just finishing up old video projects. Thanks for the watch!

Spent all that money and it was stolen a year later 🤣

They are widow makers that’s why. The front one will vibrate so much at speed it will fold up and lock the front tire up. I don’t even care to risk it. It’s a very common and tragic injury/death

@ColdStartGarage . . . and the rear fender? That's the important one when riding on a wet road. I'm getting this motor 'kit' next week, and am just going over what I'm getting into. Seeing if there's any specialty tools required besides the chain breaker. Btw, I actually dig that bright yellow with the forest green. 👍

I don’t recommend any bicycle style fenders. You could get creative with water protection I suppose: just beware of parts that can lock up wheels unexpectedly. It’s really not worth the risk. Just remember these China death traps and bicycles was not designed for 30-40 mph

There are two more videos for refinements after this one.

@ColdStartGarage F-ZERO 'motor ready' bike at Bike Berry for $499 >>>> this bike is made for an engine, and has hand brakes on both front & back tires, so, I ask myself, where in the hell does the clutch handle go? Why would this bike be built for an engine that operates with a clutch, and yet both brakes have handles? Matter of fact, shouldn't this bike be made with a handle that can 'handle' both brake cables at the same time? I just don't get this one, and on such a nice bike! Happy Thanksgiving!!! 😊

I’ll pepper them In when I have the drive to do so. But I’m not strictly a motor bicycle channel. As you know . 🤘🏻🏁🏁🏁

105 102. And raise the needle one clip

I talk about that in my 3 video. It does happen

Yes

Ya it does. 🤣 check out my very next video on the Minarelli build and see how I royally messed it up 🤘🏻🏁🎶🎶🎶

What are you referring to? I’m missing some information on this one

@ColdStartGarage Basically I Can't Make It Go faster lol so I'm ganna get a new exhaust the expansion chamber one and see but then might try getting a different carb

You want top end or acceleration?

@ColdStartGarage I want better speed And maybe acceleration yea

It pumps small volume tires pretty ok. Car tires from 9psi to 30. She struggles a bit. But will do it

It’s a knock off makuni carb from California motor bikes. The link to the jets are in my description

@@ColdStartGarage thank you bro

You are welcome. Let me know how it turns out

I don’t normally sponsor videos. But a free to me little air pump. I’ll find a use for it.

She fires right up easily know. Runs great. Still could use a couple tweaks. But she is a bit too loud for my neighbors

You are welcome. Fun was had by all

I used my hands…. I believe I unbolted the h pattern from the chassis so I can get to the cables easier. But that was many beers ago since I did that job

I don’t use the motor much these days. My UA-cam videos have slowed way down. New career new things to learn. It’s taking a toll. I’m not done filming. I have projects filmed. They are waiting on me

My full form content first video of the build of this minarelli has all the links in the description. If I remember I’ll dig it out and send you a link later. Or you can sniff around for it. Whichever 🤘🏻🏁🏁🏁

Thanks for your insight!

@ your welcome!

Thanks Mike. When I get a minute I’ll drop it down one main jet, not that it will change the idle. 🤣🤘🏻🏁🏁🏁

Sure did. That truck was not healthy

What you saying.

You doing ok?

Canada is my neighbor. New York is where I’m from

Ya I guess they are finicky. I honed it before I assembled it.. but this machine is just a toy. If someone wanted something for commute, I’d recommend something else

Plan on it. What do you recommend?

@@ColdStartGarage whatever you can find😆. I cut a Phantom 85 silencer off and attached it to the end of the expansion chamber with a radiator hose and clamps. Works great

@@Matthew-wj8cm pretty good idea ! 🤘🏻🏁🏁
