Is the Mega Moto 212 complete kit the best value mini bike build? In today's carsandcameras mini bike episode, we build and ride the Mega Moto 212 complete kit from Go Power Sports. The heavy duty Mega Moto 212 chassis meets the legendary performance and reliability of the Tillotson 212 stage 1 kit.
There are other mini bikes in this price range- the Coleman CT200U-EX is a bit cheaper but has less features, and the Trailmaster MB200 is a bit more expensive but has full suspension. Today we find out where the Mega Moto 212 complete kit fits in the lineup of new mini bikes!

Charles is very well spoken and educated on mechanics, not taking nothing away from Ike or The Boss Man I’m just saying Charles is worth his weight in gold boys!
Charles is worth the trophy karts weight in gold bro
Lol, Ike is the king, Charles is super talented but he’s younger with a decade less experience, as a team John lucked out!
What are gold boys going for these days?
@@jlloyd2004mcs LoL...
One of the best additions to the team 😁👍
The only down side I had with mine is the foot pegs are too short and don't stick out far enough. I cut mine off and added the foot peg mod from Go Power Sports for their other mini bike. It moves them forward and I welded the original foot pegs on farther out! Much nicer for an old fart like me! I'm 70!
That's awesome to see a older gentleman still out there and kicking it having fun on a mini bike! Keep on enjoying it just like us young folk 😁
My wife and I are pushing 60 years old and have been looking at all kinds of atv's from dirt bikes to side by sides for weekend getaways. Seeing this Mega Moto might just fit the bill.
Man when I did metal work at school
In the 80''s , I wish my teachers had been like you. The way you explain is straight , you don't talk down to no one. You also give advise based on your experiences, keep it up
Man that’s the issue I have with a lot of mechanics. They always think they know more than you
the way teachers are supposed to be and unfortunately it's rare find.
I use a “ left handed metric crescent wrench” all the time. Fits most common size fasteners.
The mega moto 212 is the king of cruising 😎
when charles started the bike at 26:00 you can see a washer fall...
i have a coleman CT200U-EX i got for 450 dollers brand new. tsc store wanted 999.00 for it but i got it cheaper because an idiot brought it back after taking it apart trying to do a modify youtube rigg on it hahaha. but ive welded all points to make it super strong and now its a logg dragger on my tree jobs. and what not. i think it has a 196cc engine. but the 2 shaft bearings that go from the engine to the jackshaft first go bad fast. sounds like sprocket teeth popping but isnt that. im sure yall dont even use the jackshaft in the center before the main wheel chain starts. but i do for my heavy pulls. im able to get 200+ pound loggs sliding fast enough for the clutch to not burn up and lock in just in time see. you have to understand slipping . thats all. ammount of rpms till it locks in see. everybody tried to tell me il burn it up. i laughed at them . and welp the bearings went first cause there chinese like the hole bike is basiclly these days. any way. love your videos and hope i can post my bike soon and show yall what ive built. im not done with it yet. its going to be a generator as well.
@@cliffcorbitt9494And you have burned up many clutches or this is a story you made up over a bottle, sorry I own one of those and I just can't believe you that you don't go through at least 2 clutches a day doing that.
I’m building a bicycle with a chainsaw engine for the next mini mayhem- kid on the bayou
Yessir
I have a razor pocket mod that I stripped down and a leaf blower 2 stroke that fits nice under the seat, just need to take a weekend and make it all work but then I think I may as well put a 212 on the footboard and some pegs on the front tire since I don't think the leaf blower engine will ever get me rolling well enough for mini mayhem
how does that work . i dont think those engines have a lot of torque ( of course there is some exeptions there is some pretty big chainsaws out there).
I did this with a 72cc concrete saw motor. You're going to need a jack shaft and really focus on gearing to make it work.
Chainsaws don't make power until 7, 8, x1000 rpms. Food for thought.
I got to 31 mph with an 18" rear wheel.
@@jimbagle.3939 they make a freewheeling front crank set so can take drive straight to crank then you can use bikes gearing and be pedal able no jackshaft required
The rope trick works for the kick stand spring, but so will the tools for drum brake springs. The one that is shaped like a spoon is the one to use.
You guys must not have watched GPS video, no tool needed to put the spring on.
@@bakerrv I have not watched it since I don't plan on owning this bike.
I use a drum brake tool for those kickstand springs, works well most times.
I took mine to work on a buds car.He had no idea what it was.It's a shame so many have no clue about drum brakes anymore.Granted that a foot long 'plier' looking tool with the needed ends did look odd,but I used 1 when I was 11.
I get strange looks from people when they see the tools in the drawer. Even had one ask if it was a metal meth pipe.
You say that you came down the mountain with no front break. I'd've give a nickel to have been there to watch that! 👍👍🏍👀 you guys make me smile!
John would do well to learn motorcycle fundamentals. Stuff like using the rear brake to help balancing on low speed turns, progressively braking on the front, counter steering and counter balancing etc. It will help him gain some more confidence and riding more enjoyable.
Yeah I lack confidence going fast on two wheels. Gotta practice
Low and slow here. Old codger
I appreciate the construction of this bike, my MB200 I bought is an okay mini bike but lacks a lot of the features on this bike for only $200 more than what I paid!
I literally just watched someone put a ghost engine on one of those a few hours ago with a aluminum flywheel and a juggernaut with a new ignition module to get rid of the rev limiter! It was killer!. I'm actually surprised you guys aren't doing that! The channel was MJ tech.
I owned one a few years ago. I really miss it. It was a stage one on the stock engine, which I felt was more than adequate. I'm sure it's leaps and bounds better with the Tillotson. I just recently sold my Coleman CT200U....it was a great bike, but the higher riding position and no suspension destroyed my back 2 weekends ago. The MM212 would not have hurt me like that. Sadly, the MM212 kit is out of my budget, so my kid and I found a neglected Suzuki QuadSport 250 stupid cheap, and we are restoring it and going through the engine together. No more shattered spines for this ol' boy! A tip about the MM212.....the stock V-tread tires are junk. Low traction, high wear. Kenda K290 Scorpions in either stock size, or 20x8-8 are supreme. Check out the reviews on them....they're long-wearing and work good on pavement too. The 20 inch tires will give you 2-3mph more top end, and even more of a nicer ride! Excellent and thorough video as always, boys!
When In trade school I learned small engine repair so I got 2 Briggs 3 hp engines made 1 good engine from all the parts got mini bike frame w/wheels for $10.Got a clutch and chain.The wheels were so small the sprocket hit the pavement in a turn 😂I love the sching sching sound of the clutch but the clutch ate my socks,ha ha.
To me your videos are so much better when you are building your own creations not something anyone can buy and put together
Radio shack in Canada is long gone but we have a store called Sayal and sometimes you will find something there labelled radio shack!
As a longtime factory certified BMW and Triumph tech...those lines on the swing arm are often....usually....not accurate. Best way to align the rear axle is by eyeballing or using a laser level on the chain and sprocket.
I've been on a big C&C kick lately, so I'm definitely looking forward to this new video gentlemen.
Wow, mini bikes have really come along with their looks.
I just looked and the price is 1,450 and since I'm in Canada it be over 2,000 for me and when you guy's change your belts on them torque converters just turn the secondary backwards to open it up and move the belt down in to it makes changing them belts so much easier same deal as a snow mobile but it looks like a great mini bike for sure and great video like always
My son bought a mega Moto 212 a month ago. We bolted a stock Ghost Engine on it and broke the motor mount(engine plate)welds in less than 2 weeks. It's at the welder right now getting reinforced because most of the welds didn't have penetration. So I'm not sure about how well built these things are. My suggestion is to have it looked over by a welder before you even start putting it together. I can't blame go Powersports for how it arrived to the house but let's just say it went through hell and we had a lot of touch-ups before we even got started.
looking at some of those welds does not fill me with confidence that this is a quality build
Yeah the problem with this video is that it is full of bias. They are sponsored so why would they trash on it.
China welds
@@austinback5435 lol, if you’ve watched the channel you’d know they do offer their honest opinion, back to the couch bud!
@@shakyhandpictures2185bro how can you not tell they are massive shills for gps. Im not blaming them, its their primary sponsor and they got to put food on the table but don’t act like they are being completely honest
Entering the GoPowerSports 180 next year with my hard tail Mega Moto 80 with a 212 stage 2 on it
This is awesome. It's the first thing so far that you guys have featured that has gotten me on their website since I don't own any go karts or mini bikes yet. I can't get one now but maybe next spring, this looks like a super fun project.
I'm digging these longer videos.
the second time Charles pulled the pull cord. looks like a washer and a small pin fell to the ground. im sure it already in the comments but i dint go through them all. love watching you guys keep it up.
I was surprised at how much I like those bikes. Putting better nobby tires on it makes a huge difference. Especially when you air the back down a bit.
I love how EVERY videos comments are 80% just us praising charles lol
I got one. So much fun with the stage one Tillotson engine.a lot of torque with a juggernaut it goes anywhere. It is powerful and fast.
Thank you. I bought the 212 kit today and used your code. Saved 150.
The adjustable crescents we get in New Zealand are metric and imperial! Saves a lot of time and less spanners
do you have them in left handed aswell?
@Kurtis Reynolds yes we do! I also have a matching set of left hand screwdrivers
I've had mine since i was 14 and I'm 18 now and its still going strong
Sweet minibike guys...Poor cross cart...bring it back 😉
I have one of those, and put a Predator 224 on it. Stage 1 and PVL flywheel. I also have a Mod 2 cam but haven't installed it yet. It's running great already.
I got the frame kit this summer and put a predator 224 on it for under $725.00
Awesome build. Always great to see a new bike come together 👍
I've had one for almost Two years now and it's awesome, except I got the pull start instead of the electric start. Awesome fun, runs about 45 out of the box, I ordered the pro 212 I believe. It'll fly. I weigh 195lbs and it'll spin the tire and pop wheelies.
Dude that’s a sweet kit for sure! I don’t have anymore space to put one, but it’s cool 🤣
Best channel, so stoked to watch them, brightens my day every time I get the notification
Thanks for the discount for my Mega Moto 212 I just ordered. What a deal!
@20:16, My cousins and their dad sound like folks living East of the Appalachians from Asheville, NC with the accent that they have. I'm from South of the Eastern Shore in Virginia, I've never had an ear for it and often I've had trouble with communicating with them and early on I've chosen to learn to speak "properly" so that no one has trouble with communicating with me.
This may seem controversial, but the thing really about the Southern accent to my understanding of how things worked then from my History Requirement in college is from the plantation owner's kids learning to speak from slaves who worked in the house taking care of them as they were learning to read and write the language themselves at the same time.
easy trick for the kickstand, put the spring on without the bolt in, then pull the kickstand into position and then put the bolt in. makes it much easier.
I honestly don't know how gopowersports is making money on this kit. You get ALL of this for Just over $1k? That's one HELL of a value.
Good hp
Four wheelers are 6 time's the price
Because it’s all rebranded Chinese crap, if you order factory direct it’s around $500
That rope trick ,to hook that spring, was great.
I have two of these bikes, they are beyond awesome.
Really happy to see you guys all wearing your gear! Get some good Fox gloves now!
She’s looking good 😎👍🏾👍🏾
This may well be my favorite video from y'all. It was excellent!
i'm going to get 1and have my for a cruiser but for now I just love my Trailmaster Hurricane stage 1 and I take it everywhere on and off roads👏🏽💪🏽🔥😇
I've got a mega moto with a 212 predator a d it will run 43mph with a 283lb man on it...at 3/4 throttle (because the needle comes out of the seat in the carb at w.o.t. so we limited the travel of the throttle cable to 75%). Its a beast...and also has zero brakes. 😄
Hey guys, by seeing your ability to build bikes and gokarts, I think you should try to make yourselves a shift gokart but with an homemade clutch and gearbox. I think it could be great but everyone has their opinion on this idea. Anyway, awesome video on this mini bike I love it. 🤘
Pretty cool mini moto I like when Ike said there are still Radio Shacks one of my favorite stores👍🏼👍🏼
reminds me of my first minbike i got for christmas back in 1978. had a 10HP Briggs tiller engine with a modifies motorcycle clutch and a metal flap as a brake on the back tire.. lol
I bet that scooter real nice.
Well God bless America. Radio Shack still exists. This video was already good but knowing Radio Shack is still around made my day. I'm going to craigs list to see if I can find an old Realistic stereo.
That looks to be a great kit. Now the big where do start cutting to make it a rear full suspension bike.
RadioShack or obsolete around the world you guys are the only ones that still have them maybe a few other places but their history I've been around the world in my RV😂
Very nice. I have a COLEMAN BT200X. I just did a x-border shop to Harbor Freight, and got a Predator 225 to drop in it. I've been grabbing some bits and pieces at your recommendations. DID 428 chain, 60 tooth rear sprocket, and a #30 torque converter for it. I live in an area that resembles the area where your previous Gambler videos were shot, but I live in Canada though. Other bikes in my stable include a 83 CT70, a 73 Z50, a 1975 Suzuki RV90. I have a few RV 125s I'm going to steal the front end off so I can get front brakes on my BT2OOX.
You’re gonna love the 225
Just buy one! You will not regret it! It is a beast!
Welcome aboard Charles, great guys that hired you and you ain't to bad yourself.
Great hire guys, Charles brings some extra engagement [ he's quirky, we love him for it ] man can turn a wrench too 😀
Love to see yall add the swing arm kit to it
Need to see more 2stroke 3 wheeler content please John!!!!!
Cute rig. You forgot to say, "It's ALIVE!".
I always enjoy these 40 minute plus videos!
Firstly GR8 channel,funtastic content with awesome team...I have 2 of these bikes they are well built for the money,in Canada local store carries near identical version of mega 212 with no motor or front disk brakes,GPS to rescue.Learning so much from you guys,cheers!
I got a compete frame from princess auto with chain drive for 150 bucks. Coleman DB 200 clone. No front brake no jack shaft no engine. Was a return on clearance. It was missing a seat and the chain guard. I got two seats from go power sports. It was a good deal. But the shipping and boarder fees made it cost almost as much as the frame. Lol. I got a electric start 212 engine a few months later at princess auto too for 150 bucks. Gotta get it all together in a few days. Summer fast approaching. Going to rip up the logging roads. Thinking about getting the front brake kit from go power sports. Just wish they had a better shipping option for over the border…….
Cool little bike yinz guys. Keep up the great work and I will keep on watching
They sell a swing arm, it’s pretty mint honestly it comes with rear shocks too. This bike is so sweet I might buy a few more
YESSS ANOTHER BIKE BUILD!!!!
bike from the front looks like the "The Great Escape" bike you always see in posters with Steve McQueen sitting on
I think it's time for a mini bike road trip !
Great job yall and if yall drop the psi in the rear it will get a lil more cush and handle better
awww man I miss the intro where everyone says their name it's kind of the "Cars an Camaras" signature idk maybe I'm just a little too nostalgic or I live in the past a bit I don't know great videos though keep them up everybody around me watches the show peace blessings and love fellas
This will be a heckova endurance race bike! BUILD&RACE!
Yall should build a mini bike from scratch with a rear swing arm!
The best mini bike off the show room floor is, in my humble opinion, the Taco 100b. I have two and they are built like German Panzer tanks!
I'd love too and a trike axle mod too the rear..
Did anyone else think that Ike talking thru the smoke looked Game of thrones?
So glad Mr C is riding niw consistently. And learning his pitch technique from John..
GREAT video.
Careful with that brass piece as it wears it jams into the converter locking in engaged (with built engines)
Good job guys
Nice infomercial. Hahahaha. Y'all did a fine job showing the advantages of dealing with GPS and their packages. Thanks for sharing your talents and adventures!!!!
Thees bike are great. I have the same setup. Really rips. Need the juggernaut clutch and governor delete. It really wakes it up. Mine will hit almost 50mph. The flywheels on thees engines are good to 10000rpm.
Very nice setup always a great show
Awsome video as always.....thanks for sharing this with us
Great video! Frame looks like my rt200 Coleman I just bought. Nice!
I love my two monster Moto’s I bought them at bigger and I’ve had mine I think for about four years without modification to make sure that I am and then be about two years now since I’ve upgraded them but they were great bikes when they were just stock. me and my brothers had so much fun my gf/ wife now hahaha to
Pretty darn nice mini bike.
Looks like a great bike!
You guys are a bad influence, in a good way, lol. A couple years ago I got the mb200-2 because of the move to the new property, and now I just ordered the mega moto 212 frame kit. Didn't get it with the Tillotson, already had a Ducar 212cc on the way. Keep up with the great content.
Best commercial I've watched since the Tootsie Pop Owl.
Nice bike...... Id buy one in a heartbeat if I could right now... thanks for the great video as always.
I have one with a lifan hp212e it's a monster.
Get a yellow or white metal marking pen like used in junk yards to color in the chain adjuster marks.
Friendly tip for Charles', slow down far enough before the turn enough that you are safe ,then throttle into the turn. Vs braking in the turn the the trying to make up throttle and speed in the turn. You want to prevent the lost of speed when taking a turn. With this knowledge you could actually run less throttle and have a faster lap time . 🍺
Wow what a tidy mini bike, wish they were available in England.
Yea Boy
love mine the 212 mega max and the mm80
I really like how John say we are doing this and we are going to that and It's Isaac and Charles that does all the work and he takes to credit for it.
Because they’re a team. There wouldn’t be a carsandcameras without John.
Just ordered my mega Moto 212 with ur code
We need another big build possibly a 175mph turbod methanol drag cart long lengthy and stout🤷🏼♂️gotta keep it og but bring it up a knot it’s time.
I've never seen a mini bike advertised so hard before.
