Thank you for the info on the bushings! I definitely don't doubt that after 2 years my rubber bushings are probably worn out already. And I got a fully built Tillotson 225 on there pushing 20 horses.
The purpose of the rubber bushings is to reduce engine vibration to the frame.. but if you're thrashing on it,, engine vibration isn't really an worry. ( who else remembers pushing an old push mower over a whole yard and not being able to feel you hands after?)
If you're going to install metal(steel or brass) bushings ,try putting the bushings in the freezer overnight, they'll shrink enough to make installation a lot easier{dry ice works great too}
I've got a MB200X 1st thing i did was through away the plastic gas tank,removed decals. Then painted it black,what a difference, stage 1 kit and away we go.
Harbor Freight has side cutting drill bits that may make the rubber bushing removal easier. Love your content keep up the great work. The only thing missing is small diesel craziness like the diesel duce.
I cut the secondary off with a grinder and used the cvt plates they sell online with a juggernaut driver but I only had a 212 ghost with minimal mods. I plan to drop in a brand new 301 and I have a duromax420 in need of a good flywheel that will be going back on the older bike. I like these new frames a lot because of the rear swingarm.
My man I’ve seen a video from a year ago and now you’ve gained some weight please stay healthy man hope you can hit the punching bag and shed it off ❤❤all love care for your health brother 🤙
Bud I think younz are to the point of red beards mini bike..made and designed by yall. You just need to build a beast mini bike that can handle a 200lb plus person everyday..tough sure will be but I think if you build it there gonna buy it..keep on keeping on.
Changing the sprocket isn't a bad idea, I just suggest that you wait until your done testing the wildcat engine so all the tests with the engine stays the same
@RedBeardsGarage very true, I forgot about that. It will do great with the sprocket upgrade. Learned alot from watching your engine builds. Keep up the great content.
I find it hard to believe these are the best frames seems like the Coleman ct200 type frames just seem superior if I need to do all this to make a bikes suspension last I mine as well get a pit bike
Wait a minute @ 10:48 RBG so these are the same size fitting as the ones for the engine cradle? If so I need to add 2 additional more to my order. I didn’t know that My bike is a trail master hurricane
Why would you want swing arm bushings to be steel on bolt? Two ball bearings together on each side would be better. Put a bigger rear jackshaft sprocket on and a smaller rear wheel sprocket.

We adding a lot off power to these bikes and pushing them to the limit like Rick Ross😅
Isolators!!
Sounds like a good way to get yourself some stranger time later 😅
@@tray22😂😂😂😂😂 how do u even think of that bruh
@@mustafaboss3396 Better than sitting on your hand until it falls asleep lol.

I run 9 - 60 tooth sprockets on my Trailmaster with 301cc and it helped the belt life a lot. Cheers.

That 223 is a spicy build for the bucks.
We like the scriptures that you put on Keep On ❤ coming.
I wonder if I can mount one of them engines on a mountain bike love your videos keep up the great work
@RBG I’m glad I ordered mines from you. Can’t wait for mines to come in the mail 😊

Ready to see that wildcat fully spec out

Can you press those metal bushings in?
Those swing arm bushing should have a sleev in them that spins freely In it so it's not twisting those brackets
The funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time … RedBeard using the tiny hammer 🤣😂🤣❤️😎
Or grind the paint and weld it up?
I'm really disappointed we didn't get a "jeepers Mr. You're really strong" when the bushings got hammered in 😢😮😟😟😣😢😥
Lontreezie in duh HOUSE 💪🤣
Do you have a link for that LED headlight ??looks like a wonderful upgrade
I can get it added tomorrow.
@@RedBeardsGarage thank you sir
@@RedBeardsGaragewas just checking back with you I don't think you added it yet. Dont see it.
Always amazes me how that little engine pulls full size adults, is it good enough? I would have liked a 420/460 motor just for the cubes
Changing the sprocket isn't a bad idea, I just suggest that you wait until your done testing the wildcat engine so all the tests with the engine stays the same
Well the only problem is the belt cant handle anymore power at that gear ratio.
@RedBeardsGarage very true, I forgot about that. It will do great with the sprocket upgrade. Learned alot from watching your engine builds. Keep up the great content.
damn looking at that frame it looks like it'll fit a bigger engine like a V twin
Why not just use a hole saw to cut the bushings out? About 1” or
1 1/8”?
Have you wondered how polyurethane bushings would work?
God bless RBG
That beard is looking awesome!
Did the bushings make the frame more rigid ?

What size heim joints do you use in the rear swingarm?
I'd love to see you guys make one of the mb 200 look like a harley davidson v rod it's almost there
The jallow and black.
They probably did it because of all the vibration. Until the motors until they break in.
What is your first favorite now?
Do a 356 cam on a predator 212
Two things one you should build or buy manco fat cat or big cat and when or well you been going to a swap meet thing again
Can you put a electric motor on the mb200 red beard😊
We are doing one real soon on a bike.
It looks Like it Needs A 40 Series torque converter cause of the. High Horse power and. Torque

I bet you're going to get a lot of comments on how you treat your screwdrivers.😅
You still doing yt full-time? Seems slow
Sup
Why not just replace them with better/stronger bushings? My go to site for materials and such is McMaster-Carr.
Happy wrenching 🤙🏼
