I came for the build, but I’m staying for Mr. chop. 😊
Same here! Love Mr. Chop!! 💪🏻
I came for the build, but I'm staying for that tube bender.
The Mr Chop Show featuring Donn is a huge favourite of mine! 😎👍🏻
Mr. Chop always puts a smile on my face. 👍👍
I wish I was your neighbor. Thank you for sharing Donn.
Cheers!🙏
Your channel reflects the fact that a huge shop and every top end tool on the market is necessary to design/fabricate something. The builds we've seen you tackle make that very clear. I hope you never get bored or tired of this-and that you continue to be inspired. Looking forward to the next video. God bless.
Good to see you making something just for fun instead of work! I think you have more than earned a toy! Thanks for sharing.
I've justifyed this build by telling myself I need this bike to move around at the homestead. I've used quad bike and UTV for short trips but this fat tire minibike would be even better.🤔😀
Wow, very creative, Donn. Would have never thought you'd build a mini bike. It's like it's been inspired by a WW2 troop bike. Will enjoy this series. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching👍
Glad to see you back, Donn! Mr. Chop was very hungry today!
I guess, he was drooling over all over everything!
Something easy to design, with a big footprint for some fun sloshing around the farm. 👍
Yup, the main reason for this bike will be moving around the farm.👍
Having fun and learning from your videos. Thanks for sharing with us Donn. Always enjoy your videos. Fred.
What a delightfully over-engineered frame jig for a mini-bike, the most Donn thing I've ever seen.
It has to be exact, doesn't it? 😀
@@DonnDIY A very Donn statement! If it is worth doing right, it is worth over doing! Most mini bikes I've seen are held together with chewing gum, zip ties, duct tape, and Grandma's prayers. 🤣🤣🤣
🤣
Thanks for these videos. Starting to learn some welding and seeing someone else do it make the mistake less and less.
I love the name of your UA-cam account. Donn DIY. I am not a welder or fabrictor and even with all your tools Ik could not do anything you do. But I think that DIY is a little underrated. Love what you do and I will keep folowing you. (Marc from Belgium - sorry for the bad English)
Great start! 👌👍 Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks for watching👍
I like your table , a nice fully functional table anyone can create. So many options to setup n clamp pieces. Would be good in my line of work, millwork especially in solid surface dept.
The main reason I like this table is the fact that I can use regular clamps to hold stuff down. And when I don't use the table I can use the clamps on other things. Dual purpose stuff when it works is superb.🙏
Quality workmanship Quality video
Thank you very much 🙏
I still chuckle every time you use Mr Chop. :D
😛
Nice work Donn! I’m definitely looking forward to seeing this build to the end 😊👍
looking forward to the next instalment already. Great video.
Cheers!🙏👍
Keen for this one, it’s good to be back on builds like these 👌🏻
Cheers!
Great to see a build just for fun. Not that there’s anything wrong with any other build.
It's kind of practical as well - will serve the task of moving me around at the homestead👍😛
Donn is a master craftsman, a true artist. Thanks for sharing, Donn.
Much obliged!🙏🙏
I look at it with interest every time.
I'll definitely keep watching

Thank you very much.🙏
Here you are man! A great new fabrication...... waiting for the growing of this project....come on!!!
Sweet build Donn.
Thank you!
Nice project👍. I like your pipe bender! $1080 usd regular price in my area for a new China made 5hp(212cc) Minibike. Max speed 20mph(32 kmph). I think someone could get it to go 50kmph! 👉I know your bike will be 2x better built than the China one....!
We don't have these minibikes here, that's why I'm building one. 👍 Thanks for the specs.💪
There will be another great project! 🎉
Greetings from west coast Latvia! ❤
Greetings from Estonia 🤙
Love your work. Keep it up young man.
🙏
Very nice! I used to own a 1970's fat tire Super Bronc mini bike. Fat tires make for some strange geometry in corners, so be prepared on your first ride. Loving the project so far!
I was thinking about the geometry in corners. Thanks for the heads-up!👍 Thanks for watching!
@@DonnDIY The further the traction patch is away from the center of the tire (when you lean) the more wonky it feels. You'll see. Still fun to ride, but can get crazy if you are riding on uneven terrain or hit a rock or log with the side of your tire. Hopefully your bike rides better then a Super Bronc. Your design sure appears much sturdier.
Another masterpiece in the making
Your creativity is amazing, thanks for sharing your videos. 👍
Thank you for watching.🙏
This is going to be a fun series to watch. Cheers from Australia.
Cheers from Estonia👍
Oh, a new video, new build. What a nice Saturday :)
You never disappoint! Looking forward to the next steps.
Next video in this series on upcoming Saturday👍10th of February 2024
Great content and editing as always! Can’t wait to see how this turns out.
Cheers!
A small diesel engine would be neat.
new cyclemaster with fat tire will be amazing sir
Awesome work my dude.
“Bloody Perfect!!” - awesome! Thank you for sharing. 👍🤘😎
Thank you for watching!
Nice work Donn! This is going to be an excellent build to follow
Thank you🙏
Excited to see this one!
Cheers🙏
Awesome build cant wait
OMG You are heading to 1 million subscribers, this is going very fast.
Awesome, thank you for sharing, another project who I follow 👍👍👍👍
Genial , da gusto ver realizar sus trabajos . 👍👍
Great vídeo, thanks!.
Awesome work Donn. When you're done you can build me a trike with fat wheels. Keep up the good work. :)
I was wondering if you were going to make something like this given the progression of the projects and the terrain you have. Neato!
Here we go again..and i know i gonna love it!!
Fu*kin mint! 👌👌
A lot of good idea
I have Been Waiting and Waiting for your NEXT Project !!
Sorry, I was sick a couple of weeks and also a couple of weeks before that. I didn't have the strength to undertake any new projects.🤷♂️
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
Mancavi da un po'... e' sempre piacevole seguirti ed imparare da te!!!
Sorry for the absence. I was sick.😬
Wow great video! You're so clever
Cheers!🙏👍
Буду ждать продолжения 👍

Let's hope so 🤞😀
Nice!!! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
When u use mr.chop(saw) it looks like it barfing(throwing up !)😂Haha
Genio
Hello Donn beautiful project good job
Cheers🙏
Very skilled😊
Cheers!
jenius bro.. salam dari Indonesia ❤
Batman Returns, you've been watching way too many Movies
LOL
I just finished one that looks exactly the same 2 months ago, same tyers, same frame, 7.5hp, but used a jackshaft to gear it down.
The gearing might be interesting on it indeed. CVT helps but I'm also using a 60 tooth rear and 12 tooth front sprocket. But I'll find out once I can test drive it.👍
New Build FTW
Lovely work there Don, beats my water pipe and mower part minibike I built 53 years ago that handled like a pig and fell apart, but that's all I could do at 14.
I tried to do something similar back in the day. But now I have a tube bender!🤘
No more Honda Monkey, this is "Honda Gorilla"💪 Good job as always Donn!👏
Honda FTW anytime 😀 but fat tire mini bikes are awesome too😛
Excellent ❤😎
Cheers🙏
Bloody perfect! 👌😂
🤘😅
Thanks man 👨 you wild technology
MM77 Approved 👍🏻👍🏻……………………………………..it’s two wheels, it’s cool with me! LOL
You'll learn where the muscles are in you forearms when you're riiding this thing 😄
kudos, you want to create something and you just freakin weld it into fruition
"Bloody perfect". Of course it is mate.
Cheers😄
Donn is building the next TET bike for Himself 🤣
This would be unstoppable on TET 🤣
Nice! Greetings from Finland! 👍🏻🎅🏻🇫🇮
Cheers from Estonia🙏👍🤗
Great video as usual. Can you make the watermark on the video translucent, or smaller? It can get in the way sometimes during what you're filming.
I'm coming from quantum tech channel, and new subscriber
Thank you for subscribing🙏
Nice! You should build a 2WD version.
RWD this time around. I've thought about 2WD as well.👍
Is there part #2 ? Looked but couldn't find it let me know if you have it would like to watch the rest of the build otherwise nice camera work..and construction 😊
Part 2 is coming on February 10th 2024 🤞
Hey Donn, I hope this is going to be a 2 wheel drive bike like the old Rokon Trail Breakers... Looking good 👍👍
RWD only this time around 👍
I am waiting for someone to build a motorized standup scooter, I am no engineer but I think that would be a cool build.
I think so too👍
Awesome ❤

Здравствуй!лайк 👍!удачи тебе в этом проекте!
tagaots means rear and I think esiot means front. I hope I am right.

That's right! Donn from Estonia 🤙
Новый проэкт .Байк!
Excellent 👍 Класс ✊Donn 👍💪
💪🙏
Genial!😍🤗
I like the way you think. Fat tired for sure.
🙏
World best.
🙏
Do you plan to produce and sell them? Is that why you made a jig?
I want the bike to run straight first of all. But the possibility of producing these did cross my mind whilst building the jig.👍
Thjs type of bike does me think about the movie watch out were mad with bud spencer and terence hill. Bud drives a big wheeled moped in it
What if you turn the engine 90°, so the mounting base is verticle?
Might require relocating the oil slinger, but would improve airflow to the cylinder (while moving & without the shroud).
I guess keeping the shroud and using oiriginal cooling will be more simple than modifying the engine.🤔
@@DonnDIY yeah, that is easier to not change things, but it isn't your style to do things the easy way.
I'm sure the shroud is better for stationary operation, but minibikes aren't stationary (when built correctly).
Have you seen this amazing machine? Do you want to try?
Mr Popcorn
1 hour of a guy checking 90 degrees of a square tube😆
Took 10-12 minutes to see the jig take shape. You going into series production???
Best wishes from Northern Canada.
It would be possible to do a bit of production but the main reason for a jig is to have the bike running true. I can't sleep if I know there's stuff crooked on this bike and I could've made it better.
Your designs are great. But I noticed you never fully weld your tack welds. That is not going to be full strength welds.
Good point. However, the load on the jig is static. Those bigger than average tack welds are going to hold great. When fully welding the jig it is going to warp it and jig gets inaccurate.
Ahaa.. perhaps a homemade Rokon?
Nope, just plain old minibike 😛😀
