I am so impressed by everything in this project. The footswitched gears, the clever placement of the fuel tank, the option of removing the frame if further work has to be done on the axle or the engine and over all finish making the Scooter almost look like it came out of the factory. Nothing half-assed. It's awesome.
What is so encouraging, is that this shows that British mechanical / engineering eccentricity, is alive and well, and continuing through the generations. Bloody brilliant !
I'm a C6 quadriplegic and use a motorized wheelchair, I've always wished it were much faster. I wish you could modify my electric chair to be 15-20mph. Good job on your build sir.
Colin. Brilliant, mate, just finished watching your vids on this. This is what sheds are for... I'm a Boilermaker (fabber) & I have to say it's sad that this fun is denied to so many people... More power to your elbow. Sorted!
If speed matters change the gearing it will probably do a bit more, not a lot. Less burnouts and drifting though. I think 95 km/h is more than enough. :)
The 2 stroke is way faster but is more hassle as the cooling system dont work that great, and theres a massive expansion section on the exhuast so its harder to fit in but sounds great and has a power valve. But you can use this all day and it just works.
These were my first 4 vids I seen of yours. Mad skills, don't know what else to say! I used to be an industrial mechanic and now I ride a similar scooter so... Holy actual shit!
Amazing. It's 2022 and that's my model scooter. But I've not got the means to do it. But boy I would love it. Just one that went around 20 to 25 would do. Really good videos you crazy man.
I have been a Wheelchair for 21 yrs an i have done all kind of racing in i always wanted to take weed eater motor an put on a wheelchair. I just never got around to it , I started watching your videos an they are so cool. An you ask for ideas well they is one,
You seem to be a very smart man so please wear a helmet when you ride something like that my cousin got brain damaged from falling off a motorcycle drunk at a stop sign and I had them save my melon more times than I can remember. Just would hate to see you lose your interesting intelligence from something so easy to prevent and keep on building those crazy machines
Trust me if you had anyone close to you get brain damage from a slow speed fall at a stop sign . he did hit his head on the curb is why it was so bad and he calls me jig my nickname he hasn't called me since he was 8 he don't remember shit it sucks he lost all the memories of all the life when we lived together and all the great memories of all the great times we had together he was like my older brother so yeah I'd say my opinion is a little skewed but its the truth if he was wearing a helmet he would of just walked away I seen it happen it didn't look serious till we was laughing at him for being a Jack ass till he didn't get up and when he did he went crazy didn't no anyone not even his wife and kids. I helped him pick the bike and was teaching him to ride now I'm teaching him to read again and that was 2 years ago and he still don't remember almost 30 years of us being so close
And I hit a tree head on with my quad runner racing thru the woods and it split my helmet my head was fine I got compression fractures in my spine from it but my melon was fine Dr said force it took to split my helmet and break my back would of killed me %100 same as when I jumped my car of a hill with a kick ramp to make it spiral like a football was supposed to land back on tires and it landed on the roof 120 feet out from ramp smashed roof almost to the door knocked me out cold broke my helmet then to and my back for the second time so I know from a lot of experience they work great at protecting your brain I crashed so many cars and whatever else you can think off that is fast and fun to ride and push to the limit I wanted to be just like swanky Spangler after I seen him jump Rio grand wit rocket powered semi onto flat ground . I am an adrenaline junky and I have done a lot off crazy stupid scary shit wear you can be killed from anything going wrong I do understand that rush when you hit and try to push the limits and that's the most addicting drug there is to me.but i always wear a helmet I don't want to be a vegetable and a burden on my family my body can heal or just hurt but your brain doesn't always heal.
Yea man some falls can be nasty, ikr as I work as a courier on motorcycle. Though now in summer (or getting close to) I tend to take it off when going through small streets inside of those neighborhoods that are well outside from downtown. Where you basically see a car every 5 or 10 minutes, and you don't go faster than 20mph or 25.
I just started watching some of your videos. Absolutely mental. I would have to say the tie is part of your bit, but I would recommend losing it around the power tools.
Colin , your crazy ! . your ideas and actions . very cool Mate . its fun watching your projects come to life and they actually work as intended . Thank You for sharing all your brilliance . Ray in Pa .... U.S.A.
SHOULD WE START A RACING SERIES
YesYESYESYESyesyes
If they can do it for lawn mowers why not mobility scooters?
Definately, if I could I'd be a part of it but sadly I live in Australia
brilliant
I'll make an amphibious one so i can come over from america and participate
Mr. Furze, how are you so awesome?!
the Hacksmith you became better...
Mr. Hacksmith how can you be so awesome
Yes
60 mph on a fucking mobility scooter and not even wearing a helmet... This guy is shitting all over reason and rationality.
I love it.
+Asger Frederiksen He got a safety tie.
I think I would definitely do the helmet. To great a chance of damaging that brilliant and creative brain!
I am so impressed by everything in this project. The footswitched gears, the clever placement of the fuel tank, the option of removing the frame if further work has to be done on the axle or the engine and over all finish making the Scooter almost look like it came out of the factory.
Nothing half-assed. It's awesome.
most UA-cam are like "don't this at home"
this guys like "definitely make it, description in the link below"
i fucking love it
+ahmed hassan dont this at home lol
Can you guys fucking fix your grammar?
lol description in the link below
Series now complete so enjoy and get building
Well done colin looks fantastic
on the back it says ''shop rider'' change it to ''shop raider'' or something xD
here is the swedish version! watch?v=19wYCVGJBcM
Why don't you make an adapted weather canopy which could double as a roll cage should things go wrong...
licensedtoburn There is no need for that, he was wearing his safety tie should things go wrong.
ITS FINISHED NOW YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN
That's a dax motor?
Darcy Whyte
do an ebay search for "lifan x" where x is a number that's a standard engine size between 49 and 140.
colinfurze can you make a how to video for something cheap small and motorized because it's kinda hard when your an eleven year old to earn 1500
he will have a heart attack hhhhhh
yes
I love coming back to watch his old builds.
So cool.
dress up as a granny and go into the streets with that.
JACKASS!
+Blox :D i say do it. if i had that, i would do it
/watch?v=OG8pAAZW6FE In Swedish but the same thing as you requested.
😂
Matt Scott mhm
What is so encouraging, is that this shows that British mechanical / engineering eccentricity, is alive and well, and continuing through the generations. Bloody brilliant !
In the end, it's more work than I realized. But it's so cleanly assembled and works fantastic. Brilliant.
you could do it quicker and less well, but you wouldn't want me to show a bodge job, come on do it its not that much work
Nope, wouldn't want it to look bad. Always go the extra distance for final products!
colinfurze
You type like you speak. It's awesome.
Colin you are an absolute leg-end and an inspiration to shed tinkerers everywhere. This is the stuff dreams are made of keep up the good work!!!!!!
The guys a bloody good engineer as well as lunatic!
last one so all your practicals can get building
sei un grande
Can I buy one of these from you?
***** I would but I don't have all the tools required for this. Plus I don't have a welder anymore otherwise I would.
Drag race in WalMart!
It's ASDA in the UK
hmm
Yeah it is
***** "general" You can go into Walmart and buy a gun...
Asda is owned by Walmart, asda was tiny before Walmart bought it
8 years on this is still a great video, I still want one for myself!
awesome dude! greetings from Canada
I'm a C6 quadriplegic and use a motorized wheelchair, I've always wished it were much faster. I wish you could modify my electric chair to be 15-20mph. Good job on your build sir.
This guy is literally the Myth Busters and Tool Time rolled into one. Love it!
I'm considering doing this build but will these modifications void the warranty?
well duh lol
The people that came out to sort a problem with my (Pride Ranger) didn't know a thing about them so they most probably wouldn't notice !!!!
No it won't.
you're good
@@aforeffort6969 r/whoooooosh
Apocalypse happens. *dude goes flying by on a granny scooter* there goes Colin
lol that would be the day
😂😂
you should host top gear man
imagine seeing an old person driving that
Oh
Kids can't tell grandma to keep up anymore. They will be the ones left behind.
I can see my 81 year geat grandama driving that
ua-cam.com/video/OG8pAAZW6FE/v-deo.html
B3nte There would be shit everywhere
When it comes to build's Colin's and the Creative Channel are my favourites on YT.
dude you should realy get a freaking tv serie for al the amazing things you build
I don't know if you have a TV show...but you DESERVE one!!!
Awesome job bro. But please put a helmet on. People like you are rare breed :) Keep up the good work!
Truly a masterpiece of engineering, you are almost a genius, keep up the innovative thinking.
1:51 You should tell every Car manufacturer out there...
i live in the uk and im 10 years old, you have taught me a lot
I want one!!
He acts like a GOOF but he's mighty CLEVER! Gosh, Colin you're the best.
I'm so glad I found this guy 😂
As a grown adult I never thought I'd still have a hero but here I am over 40 and Colin is definitely my hero!
Just for fun.....park this outside the old folks home and see what happens when Grandad takes it to go to the corner store.
Colin, please wear a helmet so I can keep watching your hilarious videos. Love your work man!
You are Health and Safety worst nightmare
Colin. Brilliant, mate, just finished watching your vids on this. This is what sheds are for... I'm a Boilermaker (fabber) & I have to say it's sad that this fun is denied to so many people...
More power to your elbow.
Sorted!
For fellow viewers: 60 Mph = aprox. 95 Kph
So in theory, you could ride this thing on the high way xD
Minimeister317 not a proper car.
Speed 2 and?
Damn.
If speed matters change the gearing it will probably do a bit more, not a lot. Less burnouts and drifting though. I think 95 km/h is more than enough. :)
Much love from the USA! Great videos man, keep rippin' it up!
Looks so cool, well done, do you think it will drive on the Wall of Death?
@L&O Music he hadn't 7 years ago pal
@@nelsonglover3963 😂😂😂😂
Really liking these build videos. Hope there's more in the future!
How much time to build from the start?
I'd say it took him a week
Mauricio Sanchez
Wow.. thats amazing
Vice que haces aqui lol al igual que el tu tambien eres mi idolo xd
Just got done watching the series and I LOVE IT!! My dad even says your scooter looks like a ton of fun!! and yes clicking like!
shopping cart next,,
I wish I could do that.
I want one! I love the shirt and tie, some standards need to be maintained at all times!
This guy is just crazy
this guy is GENIUS
BIGS36UK well said
The old people will have a lot more fun now.
Now go into a Supermarket with this Thing :D
***** why, you smash stuff, then just pull the throttle :D
this guy is alot smarter and funnier than i first thought. very good vids mate, nice 1
I wish we could see a granny doin 80 mph on one of these things runnin from the cops!!!
Fantastic! Liked the Macc Lads in the background during the build...
there is only 1 thing left, add a pulsejet engine!
He's always so hilariously excited. It's brilliant!
Is that TIG or MIG?
tig
colinfurze Thanks Colin. I'm just spending a lazy evening crying with laughter at your work. Absolutely love it! !!!!
Hello Colin, have you made a racing sofa yet? :)
TIG Muppet
David Handley n
Now that was one fun unique build series!
Give it for your granny's B-day.
best youtube discovery of 2014 for me, you are amazing!
If guardian angels exist, yours hates you.
Great last part, a really enjoyable series - thanks Colin.
the 2 stroke version is better through
The 2 stroke is way faster but is more hassle as the cooling system dont work that great, and theres a massive expansion section on the exhuast so its harder to fit in but sounds great and has a power valve. But you can use this all day and it just works.
colinfurze could i just use a 50cc twist An go engine?
sure, if you want to settle for less power.
Colin is the type of person I am. He loves to act crazy but he always knows what he's doing.
60 mph without helmet or leather gear. I envy your massive careless brass balls.
smackbabie all this from a plumber 😂
These were my first 4 vids I seen of yours. Mad skills, don't know what else to say! I used to be an industrial mechanic and now I ride a similar scooter so... Holy actual shit!
AMERICAN DREAM CAME TRUE
How much did it cost to make
@colinfurze you are an absolute legend.
What on Earth is that sound at 1:07 ??
Is a small animal dying in your shed or something?
he has a 2yr old son who likes to watch him sometimes
Aw, that's adorable. :)
I hope he grows up to build crazy things in a shed too. ;)
Giffy Guy a fisher price dumper truck with a pulsejet on the back
I see some excellent Power Wheels experiences in this kid's near future.
I think it would be harder to build than it looks. A lot of skill went into making that machine, a bloody good job - very well done.
Outstanding... but how about some safety glasses in the shop and a helmet out on the track?!?!?
You rock my man. So awesome watching you work
Is it for sale
Wicked job , thanks for all the extra tips. For Us that don't. Got All the high end tools.
Take it into Walmart 😂
My first thought exactly. Outfitted with train horns.
+Dgk for Life
Fuck YEAH!
Or ASDA, he's in the uk.
Colin Furze.. Coolest granny on the block
This + Granny = Thug Life
guys like you invented the wheel,,,,,,keep going young man cause you rock!
Everything is awesome,and the way it looks,but weren't you thinking about your head? why no protect it...its freaking 60mph
don't worry, he is wearing a tie
oh...false alarm people...keep scrolling
Haha!
snow + 60mph mobility scooter = the best day of my life!
Love it, Get a helmet dude, really wouldnt want to see you get mashed up.
Brilliant Colin,just brilliant.
Great entertainment as is the norm with your videos.
Looking fwd to lots more.
Sincerely
That's a bitchin' set of wheels!
Better get my granny one of these, she takes ages when she goes shopping! maybe this will speed things up!
give your granny this and she will ride straight into her coffin.
Amazing. It's 2022 and that's my model scooter. But I've not got the means to do it. But boy I would love it. Just one that went around 20 to 25 would do. Really good videos you crazy man.
At least wear a helmet mate...
Atul Goku Shut up, dad.
Blake Rhoades Your mom is so sexy son..... :p
you are a complete and utter nutter
and its completely and utterly fantastic! great work definitely looking forward to your future projects!
This makes me laugh !
That is funny and I bet he makes it big
Teresa you know this thing at 60 MPH ! :D
That's fast
I have been a Wheelchair for 21 yrs an i have done all kind of racing in i always

Do wear a helmet, Colin. it's a good idea.
Though, Josh, I think your example is a bit, er, skewed.
Wearing a helmet quits part of the fun. But yea if you're going 60mph do wear one.
Trust me if you had anyone close to you get brain damage from a slow speed fall at a stop sign . he did hit his head on the curb is why it was so bad and he calls me jig my nickname he hasn't called me since he was 8 he don't remember shit it sucks he lost all the memories of all the life when we lived together and all the great memories of all the great times we had together he was like my older brother so yeah I'd say my opinion is a little skewed but its the truth if he was wearing a helmet he would of just walked away I seen it happen it didn't look serious till we was laughing at him for being a Jack ass till he didn't get up and when he did he went crazy didn't no anyone not even his wife and kids.

This guy is some day gonna build the first jetpack in the world! For real, he's so smart that it will happen in the future!
wear helmet anyway m8
He's wearing his safety tie.
Good Work Colin! Hope it's going to find a space in the garage!!
This is what i love the most about our great country
Nutters in sheds !
I just started watching some of your videos. Absolutely mental. I would have to say the tie is part of your bit, but I would recommend losing it around the power tools.
Awesome! would love to see a 1600cc S&S engine in one
your actually a good fabricator nice job!
Awesome! The fun begins at 3:40. WELL DONE!
I love it when a plan comes together.
