The Scary Fast Snowmobile Scooter Rips! Part 4
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- In this episode the 500cc snowmobile powered mountain scooter build the thing goes out for a rip! And it is scary fast. The scooter needed a completely new drive train, a custom gas tank, new carburetors, and of course a place to stand.
This wont be our last Snowmobile engine swap so Suscribe here / @grindhardplumbingco
This is one of my favorite videos we have done so far! If you agree let us know in the comments and subscribe for a top speed run!
This seems like one of those “when mechanics lose their minds” or “insane engine swap” kind of builds.

The dogs looked a little concerned. "Hey, Ralph, you think he's gonna survive long enough to feed us?" "Dunno, Frank. I'm hoping."
Yeah, the dogs have seen in the past his track record with trying out new toys.
Matthew Brutosky LMAO!
that funny hahaha
Ha ha ha ha ha... was thinking the same thing! Like, "What is he doing this time?"
sand tire on the back would be awesome and definately a clutch gaurd my leg hurts now
Now we know why it's called 'Grind Hard'... at least no plumbing was harmed in the making of this video :p
YEEEEOOOOOOW!!! That hurts just looking at it!!
Fuck maan owe

It looks like a jet ski
I think you have a Hill Climber! What class would it be in? You guys need to try it out on a steep hill. You may have inadvertently made the ultimate Hill Climbing Champion design!
jlucasound oh yeah we can’t wait to test it out!
This was my first thought !
Yeah I could see a big paddle/scoop tire on the back as it is its throwing roosters for days. Cool project and respect to you both for riding it lol... :)
Wah what he said
jlucasound dj
I'm all about backyard ingenuity. Love to see people actually think about solving problems. Run it!!!
So excited to see another mountain scooter video, anytime one of these post it's a drop everything and watch It moment. Definitely needs a clutch and exhaust guard though.
Ok, I'm 65 years old and my life has been that of an out of the box thinker. Those that know me know, however I ain't done crap and I'm from Georgia but I 've been on the Salmon, Challis , Indigo , up in the Yaak, I ain't done crap compared to these guys. Gracious! Keep on keeping on for the rest of us mortals.
OK, you guys just made the jump from my "These guys are crazy" list to my "Certifiable Lunatics" list.
That was the single most sketchtastic thing I have ever seen. I need 3 of them.
Badass did I mention badass I feel as though you didn't hear me the first time BADASS !!!! I mean really who wouldn't want to build a GoFastFrankenstein motorcycle aka GFFMC
That might be the most ghetto turning lathe I've ever seen... I'm so proud of you guys!
Ethan, you are one of the best builders I've ever seen, the fact that you can take whatever you find and build an amazing way to kill yourse eeh I mean have fun, is truly uniqe. Most people wouldn't be able to even fantazise about the stuff you're able to build on an afternoon. And Edwin, sorry for your leg. Keep up the great work!
Thank you!! That is quite a compliment! I’ve been building stuff basically all my life, so it just makes sense to me. And thanks for watching!
- Ethan
@@joesearle5495 I think you have a twisted idea of what it means to admire someone's skills and abilities. Hopefully you don't expect a sexual favor every time someone compliments you. ;)
J Smith it’s happended every time so far. I mean I’m sure we could all form a line to blow Ethan and the other one
@@joesearle5495 Just because I like his work doesn't meen I want to have him sexually, I'm just trying to be nice and if you don't respect that, you can just ignore me.
Sounds like a personal problem @@bigospig
I'm an old timer and just love the ' Never say die ' attitude of this young man.
Go for it son, the rest will stay behind.
"feels like I got punched by Jesus'' XD
aaron125productions I forgot I said that hah
So original.. the design that is:)
If thats how you really feel, maybe it's time to get religion?
@@rconger24 I think he should wait until he gets punched by some more deities, you know, shop around a bit. If you just go for the first one that comes along you'll always be wondering what else you missed out on.
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo But why don't you wear proper riding gear? If you'd had a pair of proper motorcycle pants on, leather, kevlar, or cordura, you wouldn't have abraded your leg like that.
Dude I’m lost for words, literally at a complete loss.. the lathe, the wet chain, the brake, those new carbs and that fuel tank is what I would call pucker.
My leg hurts just watching this
Colepaq mine still hurts like crazy haha
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo def need an update picture! i bet it looks gnarley, awesome build!!
Grind Hard Plumbing Co jeez I bet, haha get a guard on there!
Cool
"feels like I got punched by Jesus." goes down on my top ten things heard in a while list.
If thats how you really feel, maybe it's time to get religion?
Let's hope that the boys quickly install a guard and that Jesus keeps his fists to himself from here on out. And also that there are no discussions of 'meeting' anyone's "maker" in the future -even though these builds ask to be driven hard. Keep doing this voodoo that you two do.
Great job guys, that thing looks insane!
“Feels like I got punched by Jesus!” LMAO I’m dying!!! Awesome fab work, love the gas tank! Oh but that poor driveway... next Grind Hard vid: “We build a tow behind grader out of scrap metal”😉
Haha! Thanks man! Yeah, the driveway took a beating this time. Good thing I have a Bobcat to smooth it out. 😎
If thats how you really feel, maybe it's time to get religion?
No good job goes unpunished @@GrindHardPlumbingCo
Jesus was very kind to give you a wake up call about this uncovered clutch. Could have been much worse. ;)
I think he said he was donkey punched
Absolutely outstanding! It looks like the most fun you can have, with a huge smile on your face, while simultaneously needing a new pair of shorts! (I also dig the in-helmet welding shot).
This guy deservesa medal. I love his determination and his Heath Robinson attitude to the whole build! Needs a guard over the expansion chamber if he wants to have kids though.
The problem is when you build stuff all the time you don’t go over the safety aspect because the end user (you) is mostly pretty competent and understanding of the machine. However this doesn’t account for unforeseen situations. Any time there is a rotating assembling or high voltage these things need to have a guard over them whether it’s a mesh screen or plastic there needs to be some layer of protection. The mindset is “I’m just gonna take it out for a quick test” but that’s when the accident happens. I’ve done this a couple times wiring something high voltage that was “temporary” then got distracted left it like that for days cane back and blew it up with 30 amps vaporizing metal and flashing my face. I also once made a dogbone type driveshaft to convert a gear reduced scissor jack to use with an impact (its freakin awesome) I had some exposed part of the driveshaft which I should have trimmed down or put a gated around but I got cocky thinking I’m he only user so it doesn’t have to be perfect. Well there was a freak accident with that and it nearly ripped my finger off when the jack fell and caught my hand. Those two incidents were enough to make me no longer do things temporary. Been working on machines all my life and luckily somehow have all my fingers still. SAFETY FIRST and nice build looks fun
Safety Sally always one in a UA-cam comment section
hey only cause I care for others bro be safe@@kennethsee6262
Another reason for a clutch guard is just in case the clutch grenades. Occasionally they let go and pieces fly. Great fabrication and lots of ingenuity on that build!
I want to give this video 10 thumbs up. What a machine!
Your production is great, your build is original, intuitive and fun. You obviously have ambition. You're going to go far my guy, keep it up!
Death on 2 wheels

Wolfman's Garage Naturally... Grind Hard doesn’t take half measures, they run on the edge of death, that is why they are the best channel on youtube!(-;
LOLZ agree with ya on that ,,ruined a dirt bike and made a death trap LOLZ wonder if they will show the video of it leaving the ground for the first time and someones balls getting twisted up in that clutch LOLZ Hahahahahahahaha can't wait LOLZ no half measures LOLZ
Yeah and a car is death on 4 and I'm pretty sure you drive those unless you're a kid which I'm starting to assume you are

Wow, came across this on the TV and had to find it on computer just to upvote and comment. Incredible job. Thanks for making the video so we could see your handiwork. I work in an industry just loaded with metrosexuals and ***gots and it's wonderful to see that there are still normal, young guys that know how to invent, fabricate and git 'er done.
That thing needs the GNARLIEST paddle you can find on the back. go take it back to the beach!
@The Weapon Collection nah just put the snowmobile track in the back lol.

Dunes would be crazy!
Dual duner, deep paddles!
Send it! That wouldn’t be a bad hill climber if you added a little weight in the front. That’s cool
Their are times you stumble across a channel, and wish you had money to share. to see just how far, with top quality tools, where their creativity could take them. you guys are, IMHO, one of those channels your style, the way you work together and humor is going to take you far, I cant wait to see your next video
Well done ( BTW I love the " Lathe / work! )

Thank you!! It’s looking like we will find out how far we can go soon. You and all the other subscribers make it possible, just by watching!
Haha! We really should buy some health insurance stock... or at least get health insurance. 😂

A couple of observations some heat protection from the exhaust manifold at the back of where you stand
A safety Guard over the the clutch
Maybe a seat over the exhaust manifold to have the option to sit or stand when riding
Maybe hook up a speedo running from the front wheel it would be interesting how fast you go on land before launching into space!
A couple of Good LED Lights , so you dont out ride your visibility at night

A request a full suspension Sand Rail next with a Diesel motor
I sware this guy is a genius. I'm pretty sure he is plumber too and I haven't met very brilliant plumbers. This has become one of my favorite channels.
Well no wonder lol they aren't plumbers
You guys should be very damn proud of yourselves!!!! Waiting for companies to start sending you offers!!!! Hells yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed....
Awesome job. looks like the chaincase is turning in the opposite direction than what it was intended to. Putting pressure on the tensioner. that thing rips. Especially legs....
I have been waiting for this video!! It is HERE!! :-) That build is so original and cool and badass!!
This build is Amazing man but put a cage or a outside wall to cover the motor all around behind you so if you ever fall back or something the motor won't get your clothes or arm or air make it safe after that the bike will be epic
Thanks man! I’m working on making it safer now that it runs properly.
You guys should have a seat that you can bolt on to the scooter If by chance you wanted to sit but have it wear you can take it off and it still be the scooter
great job redoing it all over again, though I would weld the muffler straight at the back of resonator, so it is just one direct pipe and better flowing as well,
I'm here for the welding slo-mos
Jourdon Gulick These guys have a freaky knack for getting the most killer shots I’ve ever seen!
Right when I saw that exposed clutch I knew that was asking for problems.. And ten next scene.. WIN!
That looked painful 🤯🤕but that scoot is bad ass guys 🤘🏻🤘🏻keep up the awesome work 👍👍
I did a similar project a few years ago. Me and my recent passed dad put a 1985 CR500 engine on a Yamaha Blaster quad frame, stretched the rear swing arm. It was a fun build and was really fast.
When you know your a badass when you weld with no gloves and right next to your fingers lol
That thing is ridiculous and makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I love it.
Been subbed since your first Barbie Kart video been enjoying the content ever since. You guys are great love how each of you add your own element to the videos and you guys each add a lot. Can't wait to see where y'all are in the next six months.
Thanks man!! Thanks for watching and coming along for the ride. We are excited for the next six months too!!
Great to see it running after all of the work you put into it. I think it would be fun to see a pro flat tracker drift it around an oval. Great job!
Yeah totally
A+
Sweet engineering!!!!!!!!! Those burns like that take along time to heal. Stop and make the guard!!...Cheers, Jim
oHHHHHHH Mylanta that is the Baddest Ass ride I've ever seen. I telling everyone right now watch out these guys are coming and strong with the force. Ohhh Yea!
Thanks for spreading the word twin!
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo You know it I believe in you guys for going hard. And yes doesn't hurt be so dang good looking My brother from another Mother.
That "North Idaho Lathe" is BAD ASS!!! Nicely done!
You dudes are soo badass, I think I've seen you on treehouse masters.? How do you finance your builds since you aren't plumbers. Lol
Safety is first my friend! Since the start of this video I watched the clutch and thought... jumm this is the most dangerous part of this project, must be covered... Ok, is part of the learning curve!
*Yes*
Yes!
"This thing is Awesome!".---Hobbles away in pain..XD Love it.!
AACK!! Put ALOE on it!! And then a guard on the clutch. :-) Thank You for "donating" your body to "science". Hope you are OK.
dont put aloe on it! i got a simular burn/scrape on my calf while racing gocarts, because one of the other gocarts got pushed up on to the sidebox of mine, and the right rear wheel was free-spinning full throttle when it hit my leg... someone said "hey just put some aloe on it, il'll be fine" so i did, and instantly regretted it... just dont do it...
Imagine how kick ass we would be in society if everyone had someone to pump you up and cheer you on the way Edwin does Ethan.
fkn christ that thing looks really fast n really cool also RIP pants RIP leg
Awww man, I know that hurt! Reminds me of the time I ran into a 4x4 post with a three-wheeler. My knee jammed the thumb throttle wide open and somehow the rear wheel ended up on the back of my calf, spinnin 100 mile an hour! To make a long story short, by the time we got my knee out of that throttle my calf had chunks of rubber rolled up in it! I've followed this build since the beginning and I'm pretty amazed at the fab skills! You guys did a hell of a job! Real ass-skinner you got there!
(Next Video) We turned our scooter into a SuperMoto!!!
Not to hard in someplaces
Wicked toy, nice! Be proud of your amazing engineering, time and hard work!
Thanks man!
It’s an abomination! The Abominable Snowmachine!
Just a small metal loop for slipping in the front of a shoe to help hold ya down to the deck and it's PERFECT!
Vent the tank on that gas cap.
19:21
Thats what i get for not watching the whole video before commenting
Blue hose on the cap isn't a filler hose.
Easy way to shovel trench. Amazing guys! And what a place you have, beautiful view. More videos, we are watching.
When's the next Jeep build episode
JEEP?!? I think you mean Tacoma don’t ever call a Toyota a jeep
Oh wait nvm I forgot about the barbie Jeep sorry lol my bad
And yes I would like to see another episode
Hopefully Friday if we get our parts on time!
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo you should make a go kart frame with plumbing pipes and fittings it's been a idea of mine for 10 years now and think it would make a good video
You are the future of this world. Much props
Pls make the exhaust into a lot better exhaust by cutting the exit of the side and putting it into the end, you would get more power
It would make less due to no back pressure
Exhaust needs to be left stock
@@mrfaggio2642 weld the hole shut
@@mrfaggio2642 you didnt get what i meant but its done right in the newer vids!
Dude, he held the bike while in obvious pain. what a pal!!!!!
Do you want subscribers? Because this is how you get subscribers.
like your style,.. made many of project out of scrap and built most of my own tool to do it,.. nice to see younger folks keeping the "MUST-FAKE" skills alive!!! thanks! oh, and sorry about the leg,.. but that's how we learn.
even though i barely understand anything of what you guys are saying or building, this is so amusing to watch!
A guard is definitely a must, I would be concerned if something happened and it tipped clutch side I can only imagine what would happen to the clutch as the engine tried to turn it while rubbing against the ground (probably stall out but until then)... Maybe a tether could be a nice little addition too that would help. Just throwing that out there! Awesome work though👍👍
Just a suggestion as to something I would do would be to widen the area you stand like put the same size round stock as you have the frame have it come out say four inches andthen go back 8 inches and then come back in 4 inches and do that on both sides or even as much as 6 inches out. It will be harder to put your foot down but it will give you better control while riding it as you will be able to step to one side a little bit to transfer weight. Bottom line just make your pedestal where you stand wider. Awesome little machine extreme ingenuity to come from the top of your head. Good job!! I'm impressed!!!
Agreed, one of your best vids so far and one I've been waiting on! Sikk build and I completely see why you've done it - torque drifted 2stroke dirtscooter. From new zealand btw. 200k views on 2 days speaks volumes for the future of this channel.
I have never seen a rug burn that bad. You can’t have fun without fearing for your life a little!
QUE TRABAJO! MUCHA INGENIERIA NUNCA HABIA VISTO UN MOTOR ASI SON UNOS GENIOS Y ESTAN LOQUITOS SALUDOS DE ARGENTINA!
Love the gas cap not sure if it would fit the build but if u paint the fitting and use a brass plug it would be classy
You gotta thumbs up here! That calf looked shredded! Awesome build.
You guys need to bring this to a little town in upstate new york called minerva, there is a bar there that has a giant hill out back where they hold hill climbing events, i believe the bar is called sportys.
Sportys iron duke saloon
This thing would be right at home just about anywhere in Upstate NY.
It’s like a full-size Kent Scooter from the late 80’s, on PCP charged Steroids....
Insane; love it!
Way to go! Hope you have a fan behind you when you weld on that zinc coated galvanised bushing - plug - "gas-cap." Nasty toxic fumes!
That thing is freaking badass!! That being said, you may want to consider some teabag protection. One wrong bump and you're going to end up welding your sack to the exhaust. LOL
That burn was insane, you should get some clingfilm on burns like that and then plenty of cool water
Standpoint, I was born up there. I would go back if I could live in the mountains like u. Sweet build
Thanks man! Yeah, it’s beautiful up here!
Great video! A small suggestion regarding the power drill spinning the North Idaho Lathe...instead of using a zip tie to hold the trigger pressed, try using a velcro tie (the kind used for cable management). I use one on the trigger of my power washer & it works great!
Clutch guard is in order for sure. One wild ride😅😅😕😕
you guys are the coolest. remember hearing about you in Sandpoint a number of yrs ago and im very glad i found you on YT! Cheers
Dog's are looking at the bike as the new top dog respect 100%
That thing is insane! May leg feels numb just from seeing that scrape tho... OUCH!
Clutch guard, mud guard on the rear so the engine and carbs don't pack up with mud each ride, and something to stop you falling back on that exhaust cause that thing will get SO hot it'd be like what happens after eating Taco Bell for a week. Those three small things and you've got yourself something beautiful. Keep up the good work!
Looks like it would also be good at garden work making rows for seeds to be planted, while at the same time covering seeds already planted, in the next zip code ;) It would be funny, if you could you use a high output gas powered backpack leaf blower, as a super charger. Great job and video. With a rear wheel change, you guys have a great hill climb vehicle. Or even create a new sport centered around vehicles like this.
Super charger backpack!
I love this build. Guys I think the intake pipes are supposed to share a common intake reservoir to take full advantage of the 2 stroke powerband resonance. Keep up the great videos this thing is going to rip.
May as well put some kind of heat shield on there too when the guard for the drive-line goes on. Was expecting somebody to get a hot seat, but that other burn is kind of gnarly too.
That 2T warble with the new carbs - Premium.
I admire your ingenuity and determination to build such a crazy and fun vehicle.
Love the lathe option. Guard must be next item.
Nice job guys.
Thanks man!! That’s correct. The guard is already done!
Watching the process and then the final result... You Guys are Ace!
wow that is one hell of a talent... i wish more people saw the amazing skill you have by doing amazing machinery skill without a lathe. Big ups for that.
Seems like an excellent idea that is just a little engineering short of being epic AND safeish.
Oh man, as soon as I saw that clutch I was thinking it needed a guard. Yikes. Took it like a champ, though!
now THAT is proper death machine :D
Cover the clutch, maybe even the exhaust resonator a little and you'll have one badass scooter.
Love your guys projects that you build. This is the first video of yours that I ever watched and have been a big fan ever since Thank you guys for all that you do.🙂👍
You can see the power in that thing through the camera I think it would be better if you could sit down on it for more control it would be an absolute beast
