I came because I was researching differences between engine angles so planned to skip ahead to that part of the video but I was so into the setup, your talking, the pace, etc. that I ended up just watching and enjoying the whole video 💖
Neat little engine One thing to note about the 90° engine on Ducati’s They’re usually stress members of the frame. Meaning the engine itself is part of the frame. They don’t use box frames Frames on Ducati’s are quite small, and their wheel base is also quite short
Both plugs fire at the same time: one during a power stroke and the other during an exhaust stroke. It has a circuit breaker, not a distributor. It did not start immediately because there is no choke. You could use a finger as a choke. The portion of the video which attempted to show the engine "set" in the motorcycle frame has the engine/frame 180° off to the correct fit. You could likely tighten the exhaust by using two O rings per pipe.
Watch out for that phase sensor, ive watched in another channel the same engine, the phase sensor comes loose in the gear housing and comes into contact with the gearing thus getting chewed up and stops functioning and no signal back to the CDI.
I can’t wait for your video going deeper on 90deg/45deg/60deg twins!!! I’m a longtime Buell guy, grew up on Japanese bikes, but once that 45deg rumble got into my soul, there’s no getting it out. I need to know as much as I can. Please help, as only you can!!!
i did understand direct that the oring is to use over the tube under and inside the nut before screw it to the cylinder very ease to understand and see that make the tube not to be lose and also act as an sealing. but maybe it is my experience of mc engines and mecaniks make it so easy to me
Exceptional fit and finish yet the fit is poor (exhausts, grounding wire) and the finish lacks polish (fuel connection, poor instructions). Does look and sound pretty sweet through, would love to have one of these and build my own exhaust system. Thanks for this video!
The exhaust nuts are bottoming out before tubes are pinched. Adding washers are actually making things worse. I'd try beefing up the exhaust flanges with solder to see if that tightens things. That, or, find a washer/spacer to fit around/under the flange itself.
The firing interval of a 90° V is actually a pro when applied to a motorcycle - it enhances tyre grip. btw you have the orientation of the Ducati engine wrong - observe the word "Ducati" on the case and the sump casting. It needs to be rotated 30° to the left.
@@d4a I think he meant that by looking at the Ducati logo stamped on the case covers, one can see that the orientation of the engine isn't true. I'll be honest it did throw me off seeing the bottom cylinder more vertical then where it usually is on the panigale
@@louisvaldivia9260 the point of the video isnt to well represent the mounted engines, but to show comparison between angles. As d4a said, it would not have been a good comparison of both engines next to eachother
Looks like it could do with a couple of Tuned exhust pipes :D Any details of if it'll run on more traditional model aircraft/car/boat fuels, such as a Methanol-Nitromethane mix?
Please clarify this for me. This engine takes no crankcase oil, but rather is lubricated like a 2 stroke engine by the oil in the fuel mixture ? Or was crankcase oil added before starting ? Thanks, and enjoyed your video immensely !!!
Good video (as usual) but why didn’t you explain the the 60 degree engine at the end like the 90 and 45? Would have been nice for us Indian and VROD fans
@@d4a I'm totally noob when it comes to motors. The little I know, I have learned from your videos. But I have owned a Yamaha MT03 (naked version of the R3) and it's an inline 2 (is it the same as the 360° V you mentioned?). It was very smooth, actually. Now I own a Ducati 796 and they are famous for shaking a lot below 4k rpm, but works very smooth above that. Have no clue why that happens. Just thought it funny this configuration (90°) would cause it to shake less...
@@andrechagas4549 That's not a thing of engine balance, that's due to the fact that without variable phase (like in all car engines), in order to produce power at high rpm the cams are phased to privilege the high rpm and therefore the engine runs a bit rough under certain RPM.
close. but no. its a 2 stroke version of a panhead. meaning you mix oil with gasoline. it lubes all the essential parts then gets burned up. as per design
My guess is that it uses small sealed roller bearings like skateboard bearings for the big ends and mains because it is not meant to run under load, the cam and valve train are apparently lubricated by grease and the premixed fuel only lubricates the cylinders, not sure about the small ends
Like a little Harley. Install this onto power wheels or pedal cars together with the torque converter and a gearbox. Grab a kid, put a helmet on him and give him a ride.
That’s awesome. Just goes to show how simple and old and over priced Harley Davidsons are. It’d be even more impressive if it wasn’t the worst bike engine ever put onto a motorcycle
I am looking for a small motor for bicycle. (Not motors that currently are available.) I want to try a new reach motor. If I canbe sponsored and receive one, I will build a SUPER SAFE MOTOR BYCYCLE (3 WHEEL) FOR ELDERLY TO RUN SMALL ERRANDS!

Idea of these small engines is stupid. You can buy more than two real motorcycle or car engines for that price. If you want something small just get bicycle engine kit for $100. For $500 I would expect perfected small engine kit that looks amazing, comes on a stand and doesnt have these stupid flaws.

They’re usually stress members of the frame. Meaning the engine itself is part of the frame. They don’t use box frames
Frames on Ducati’s are quite small, and their wheel base is also quite short
Also, the front cylinder is lying down almost horizontal making the rear cylinder almost vertical which saves a lot of space.
Your descriptions are clear and concise. Great tutorial👍 thank you
My favorites for the perfect compromises between sound, packaging, intake priority, and balance are 75 and 60 degrees, in that order.
Awesome video man!
Excellent! Looking forward to more V2 videos. Don't forget about the 72 degree Buell V2 engine.
Man it’s awesome to see somebody else that knows about the water cooled Buell engines
@@jandincheatwood4108 I do know about them. Don't own one but have two other Buells. Super fun bikes.
Wasn't that a Rotax with some of the external castings reshaped?
What models have it, I'd like to hear it.

Wow a Harley engine that doesn’t leak oil, amazing!
that because it was a 2 stroke model. so its burning it.... which is basically a harley......
@@nadahog1569 It's called a "total loss" lubrication system. The motor has 4 strokes.
This comment will not age well.
Wow,excellent video!
A tiny cute little miniature boat anchor.
Now all you need is a tiny cute little miniature boat
Another awesome video. By the way, the small V twin sounds incredible, a toy for adults 😜
sounds beautiful
Shakes like my Road King. Fun!
I have a 45 degree engine bike and I love it.
Wow! It even has scale Harley vibration built in!
Watch out for that phase sensor, ive watched in another channel the same engine, the phase sensor comes loose in the gear housing and comes into contact with the gearing thus getting chewed up and stops functioning and no signal back to the CDI.
Love your videos and still waiting for V-twin balance detailed one.

Hi , Im looking forward for a comparison between v60,v90,v45 and v180 . Have an Aprilia Rsv which is v60 with balance shaft 😁
That would look awesome on a RC motorcycle!
Still waiting for that Vtwin engine balance video 🥲
Your videos are awesome, Learn a LOT from it.
I didn't make that vid because I thought it'd be redundant since I covered v2 balance within the V4 balance vid, it's basically half a V4.
@@d4a Appreciate you taking the time to answer ! Will go watch this one right away ! Have a great weekend
Very cool.
Hey, I just want to say UA-cam did somethin and I didn't see your few latest videos in wall, though I subscribed this channel
The exhaust nuts are bottoming out before tubes are pinched. Adding washers are actually making things worse. I'd try beefing up the exhaust flanges with solder to see if that tightens things. That, or, find a washer/spacer to fit around/under the flange itself.
Try using a tubing flaring kit. Seems like they weren't flared to specs. Or the wrong diameter tubing.
Just found your channel and Subscribed. Nice engine

btw you have the orientation of the Ducati engine wrong - observe the word "Ducati" on the case and the sump casting. It needs to be rotated 30° to the left.
Yes because the orientation of the word Ducati is more important than showing the two angles next to each other.

600 dolców za taki silniczek to sporo :D
Zwłaszcza że jest w stanie dalekim od perfekcji
Looks like it could do with a couple of Tuned exhust pipes :D
Any details of if it'll run on more traditional model aircraft/car/boat fuels, such as a Methanol-Nitromethane mix?
So when I just can't get enough of the obnoxiousness of a Harley...I can have one on my desk!
Suggestion: Can you explain how a 65 degree v12 (like v12 ferraris, t.50, valkyrie) works?
this engine looks like it would be put in a remote controlled harley or indian.
Put some copper washers under the exhaust nut to tighten up the pipes
Fascinating. :)
Perfection in 1903 👍👍👍
Damn them short stroke engines are boring-
Please clarify this for me.
This engine takes no crankcase oil, but rather is lubricated like a 2 stroke engine by the oil in the fuel mixture ?
Or was crankcase oil added before starting ?
Thanks, and enjoyed your video immensely !!!
That's so fing cute
Good video (as usual) but why didn’t you explain the the 60 degree engine at the end like the 90 and 45? Would have been nice for us Indian and VROD fans
Probably because it shows a panhead.
What about the 60 degree v-twin? What's the firing interval? Enjoyed the video, as always!
My 60 degree v-twin is 300-420 (Aprilia Tuono with Rotax V990)
@@joshm4229 Thanks!
The perfect angle for a v-twin is 90° change my mind.
You owe us a n explantion of the 52º and 76º pin offset of the honda engines.
I like this cute little engine. I suddenly feel an urge to get this baby. Where can I place my order???
That s so cool. Ty for sharing I enjoyed that.. there's Merlin 16 valve miniatures insane art pieces.🏁❤️🏁❤️🏁💣🏁💣❤️🏁🏪🏁❤️🔥
What about crankcase oil? Does it come preloaded? Being a 4 stroke it needs something down there to lubricate the crankshaft...
you should have mounted on a RC American style car!
That's a neat little engine but for $600 I think I would buy a real one.
Sounds great, but what a shame that the exhaust fittings are crap.
Cut the o ring ond put it on the header flare and tightnen the nut
At 8:46 you said that 90° V twins, like Ducati's can dramatically reduce vibration... Have you ever ridden a Ducati? 😂 😂 😂
Have you ever ridden a shovelhead? Or maybe a 360 degree twin? You don't even need to ride it. Just look at the front wheel while it's idling.
@@d4a I'm totally noob when it comes to motors. The little I know, I have learned from your videos.

@@andrechagas4549 MT03 is a 360v but has a balance shaft to smooth it out. Get your hands on an original Triumph or Norton and hold on to your teeth.
What lubricates the crank & bigends ?
2 stroke
@@nadahog1569 Vapor in the gasses in the crankcase ?
close. but no. its a 2 stroke version of a panhead. meaning you mix oil with gasoline. it lubes all the essential parts then gets burned up. as per design
@@nadahog1569 2 stroke doesn't have valves... not sure what '2 stroke version' means but anyway, I get it

Like a little Harley. Install this onto power wheels or pedal cars together with the torque converter and a gearbox. Grab a kid, put a helmet on him and give him a ride.
Is that a bench engine, or can it actually power something? I know some miniature engines can't handle a load.
I wonder if those o-rings were intended to go between the exhaust pipe and the engine (inside the nut)?
Yes! I messed that up
I wish they would but the counterweight ( flywheel) inside the cases.
Please tell me you're going to make a tiny little chopper for this engine!
Uh, I think Harleys actually have a 45° firing interval, which is why they sound so rough.
Took you only 15min to put together? I would have taken an hour or so after unboxing & I consider myself mechanically inclined.
That’s awesome. Just goes to show how simple and old and over priced Harley Davidsons are. It’d be even more impressive if it wasn’t the worst bike engine ever put onto a motorcycle
Great!
...too cool
when will be broken in, macarun P18 + oil
Why need to block the carb intake while starting?
Have to vacuum prime the fuel pump.
What is the weight of this engine
How is the valve train oiled?

what’s different between Germany 🇩🇪 cars engine and Japan 🇯🇵 cars?
i don’t know after how long i’ve watched a diy application or any application where someone’s using basic aa cells😬
I have a question: are these “exposition engines” powerful enought to power an rc car?
Look up JohnnyQ90 he's built a few with the 4 cylinder versions. Really talented guy.
to me a 45 degree Harley v-twin sounds more uneven (better, for my taste) than a 90 degree v-twin or 270 degree parallel twin.
Now mount it into a modified bicycle and see how fast it will go
To bad it's not a bit bigger it would look great on a weed trimmer
price
nice
