    Dude this is awesome. Love the channel this is the go to channel for mini bikes. I absolutely love everything you do… your never to old to ride mini bikes! I’m 33 my father is 64 and we ride all through the city! Nothing better then riding wheelies on my bt200x down the road with my dad riding one beside me. The heads we turn while riding makes it all worth it.

    thx for telling us the jet size, carb size and altitude so ppl at similar altitudes and builds have a place to start on jet sizes instead of guessing.... with 10 main jets and 10 idle jets... that is 100 jet combos possible... that is a LOT OF trial and error and some of us ... might not have the patience to try all those combos. a must RE see vid series ;)

      Everyone's jetting will be different. I have even had two identical carbs on the same bike and the jetting turned out different from one another. Check out the carb tuning videos on the channel in the carb tuning playlist. Thanks for watching!

    Makes me excited. Id be building my 224 already but ombwarehouse forgot the 265 cam in my performance kit I got from them. I have some 1.3 arc billet rockers to go with it and I went all out and got the 24mm Mikuni flat slide carb too. So pumped to get working on it.

    I had the same issue with the thumb throttle. I got full sweep out of it by taking a Dremel with a carbide grinding bit to the inside of the thumb throttle body. There's casting that you can grind away on the inside.

    I'd rather go with the 224 for the torque. There's no replacement for displacement. I guess the Wildcat 223 is the hot ticket because of the beefy block and the longest stroke in the class.

    I run a 212 'Stagev3+' (big valve, 275 cam etc) with a Keihin 26PWK and even that is too much carb so a 28 defitely is. Gas velocity = throttle response, a big choke is all top end.

    Hello, I have the same combination. The only difference is that I have a billet piston and the intake and exhaust block cover is ported with a Nibbi carburetor. The rear toothing is 40. The maximum speed is 60 miles with a BTX 200, exactly the same motorcycle.

    I have built a few engines by watching your vids! The information you provide is gold! I have a ghost with a broken rod. I would like to go to Harbor freight today and grab a 224. Would I be able to swap the 224 plastic cam gear for the metal cam gear out of the ghost? And could I use the rev limiting ignition coil from the ghost on the 224? Just so I can temporarily remove the governor from the 224 until i can order the superman kit.

    • @Black66
      @Black66  2 місяці тому +1

      Thanks! If you use the Ghost coil you also have to use the Ghost flywheel because its clocked different than a 224 flywheel. Both engines have .550 cam mains so it will fit. Check out the cam fitment video ua-cam.com/video/6Q_ngCckaJI/v-deo.html

      The Ghost is OK as long as you keep the REV limiter . Anything past that needs a billet flywheel and rod to be safe in the long term.
