The timing on Gian's glow up is perfect too now Al's mostly gone from TSF. They went from a two man show to a one man show while BCW went from a one man show to a two man show, filling the gap in mechanical banter.
Those piston circlips are often know as Ping-Fuckits. Ping is the noise the circlip makes and fuckit is the noise you make as it flys off into the far corner of your garage, never to be seen again.
Coffee van sound: locally (the UK) we have a sandwich/pasty/sausage roll van for workplaces, and ice-cream vans at the weekend. Our work van plays Greensleeves, our ice-cream van is currently on the Harry Potter theme tune!
Hell yeah, rock the go-ped! I only sold mine not too long ago in peices. Between snapping the handlebar shaft bolt, and breaking the exhaust housing mount on the cylinder from hitting the expansion pipe on the ground doing donuts... it was always a work in progress hahaha. With the hi-po carb, k&n filter, and that expansion pipe, that baby little piston used to be able to throw you off the back if you weren't leaning over the handlebars 😅 Cool to know that Zenoah is husqvarna now, that's super interesting!
Gian, you should try some of those 5 star leaf plants that produce the 9, 11 and even 13 leaves. They've got more pep in your step after imbibing. Don't give it to Benny though, he might speak a bit faster and we don't want that
11:10 - We don't have coffee trucks, but we do have sandwich vans/trucks in some parts of the UK. Where I work in Telford, we have them. Never saw them where I was born, in Birmingham.
This thing was so botched together when I acquired it. It had so many random self tappers holding it together, the machine screws were a step up, lol! It’s so awesome seeing it come together with that big bore and race port cylinder too! The before and after should be amazing!
I use a sparkplug box, or the box the coil came in to gap the coil from the flywheel. Also they may have removed the base gasket for more squish/compression
this was AWESOME. used to ride one of these in my teen years as well. and still have the damn thing. needs a new gas tank and carb. maybe ill get to it. lol nice video benny!

@@ChristopherHallettIn a Mini, it was the cardboard of the packet for the points, not the actual rolling papers. Machinists used the papers. Pretty universal gap set really, haha.
It can’t face any other way. The ring is pinned and it’s pinned at 90 degrees to the gudeon pin and the piston id mark points to the exhaust port so it can’t go anywhere else.
@BennysCustomWorks sounds like you got it right. Piston mark always goes to exhaust. Usually if the ring end gap has to pass over a port there is a bridge across the port on the cylinder wall to stop it from hooking a ring. Maybe it just not an issue at that performance level or bore diameter. My background is in outboard, snowmobile, and dirt bike 2 strokes. Haven't worked on anything that small. Glad she's a ripper.
if you get a chance, ride a kaabo wolf king gt pro scooter, mine hits 105 in a stupid short distance, wheel spin until 60 lol.. Actually scary but so much fun
benny. do Australians universally refer to carburettors as karbis as a north american i find it strange to hear it is abbreviated to just carb or carbs here not that it is important i just find it an interesting social difference. thanks for the videos. ps gut trucks found at most construction sites with there sock full of coffee in the pot... so i guess there universal lol the horn thing isnt some honk here some dont.....ice cream wagons though with the same repeating song im gonna guess you have as well
I think this is the only youtube channel that I've seen that cuts to ads exactly when UA-cam ads start. Is this an option you can pick, or is gian just a beast?
for 2-strokes, turbos = no, but superchargers = yes. I see usually centrifugal superchargers, but with it being carb, you might have to work out a whole preasurized fuel system, which im not sure how you would do (since using exhaust pressure, like some RC car people do, with this wierd frame exhaust is probably a no-go) unless you add a pump, whick then needs a source of power and so on. definately a can of worms if you try to do forced induction here.
I wonder if it’s a pure coffee truck or it also carries food like our Roach Coaches. Some of the trucks that came to my construction sites cooked up some serious meals on griddles/grills.
I had a Bigfoot, got it from Extreme Toys at Petersham 2002. Put a 46cc motor and power pipe. The thing farken ripped. Best times before the cops cracked down on them

Husquarna have bought a number of companies along the years and appropriated them. Remember Talon Tools? They were Chinese Victa clone chassis' with a different engine. They sold to Husquarna.
I enjoy the camera man’s questions, lots of insight and curiosity makes it interesting
Gian has had the best character arc, keep up the banter boys!

I felt robbed, we need a face cam of Gian and the look on his face when he was taking it for a ride.

Hahaha nicely done Benny! Love your videos, no matter what you're working on, keep up the great work!
P.S. Love the chats between you 2 boys.
For all those saying "no" to turbo two-strokes, Polaris and Ski-Doo (BRP) both have factory turbo two stroke snowmachines. 🙂
I thought we figured all this out in the 80s if not before. My shop teacher had a turbo 2 stroke sled and it hauled ass
11:10 - We don't have coffee trucks, but we do have sandwich vans/trucks in some parts of the UK. Where I work in Telford, we have them. Never saw them where I was born, in Birmingham.
Benny, you can aneal the clutch springs to make it a lot more drivable. Just heat them red hot with a propane torch and let them air cool.

Clearly need to race this vs a MotoCompo ;)
"star shaped leaf" Gian, you scoundrel
I use a sparkplug box, or the box the coil came in to gap the coil from the flywheel. Also they may have removed the base gasket for more squish/compression
This is a good format.
A gsr is the one you want they are way faster than a bigfoot. I have a bigfoot and gsr now looking for a hard tire sport. They are a lot of fun
Yeah I don’t think we ever got GSR here in Aus at all. Even Bigfoots are very rare
this was AWESOME. used to ride one of these in my teen years as well. and still have the damn thing. needs a new gas tank and carb. maybe ill get to it. lol nice video benny!
My 1st self-propelled scooter was from council collection, and it just grew from there for me
Nice project, also super keen for updates on the great wall gearbox, hopefully going well.
Next week’s ep will give a good update
You ever wondered what that brass 10 thou feeler guage was in your set? It's for setting the coil gap on these things.
It’s much bigger than 10 thou according to Zenoah
Briggs and Stratton maybe 😂@BennysCustomWorks

2-strokes don't usually like turbos, they really pick up power with superchargers. This is coming from HPI Baja RC buggies
Yep, 2 strokes require good exhaust scavenging, and a turbo kills that.
2 strokes also self supercharge. That’s what the MX guys call the powerband.
Love it :) Funny how such a tiny engine can propel you forward at such a scary speed.
You have almost motivated me to restart my postie bike rebuild…….
“Heaps mad.” ❤️❤️❤️

I know what you mean, sellers forget to delete the listing after it has been sold until they're reminded of it again :(
To gap your coil to flywheel use a business card. I work on chainsaws for a living and that's what I've always used.
Yep everyone has a bit of paper
Like setting points gap in a dizzy - use a cigarette rolling paper.
@@ChristopherHallettIn a Mini, it was the cardboard of the packet for the points, not the actual rolling papers. Machinists used the papers. Pretty universal gap set really, haha.
So cool.
Good job Benny Fixing it up with the Engine👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
' 25.4cc big bore kit ' ... lol , love it
I was actually wrong, it’s 30.5cc
Was hanging in there to see the test ride 🤣🤣. 2 stroke is good fun!
The "Petrol Skateboard" existed before the "Petrol Scooter". The throttle as held in the hand.
I think goped even offered one at one point
👍👍👍 nice.
I like watching JohnnyQ90 for all my little engine stuff
Your gut feeling is right about the ring end gap. Piston has to face correct direction so that ring end gap doesn't hook a port.
It can’t face any other way. The ring is pinned and it’s pinned at 90 degrees to the gudeon pin and the piston id mark points to the exhaust port so it can’t go anywhere else.

Always wanted one of these. But I ended up making one at home and machined parts at Tafe.
Benny, you need a chain drive goped. They shred the spindle drive peds.
if you get a chance, ride a kaabo wolf king gt pro scooter, mine hits 105 in a stupid short distance, wheel spin until 60 lol.. Actually scary but so much fun
Sounds wicked! I'll look it up.

Yes to your question - basically all Aussies call them carbis.
I think this is the only youtube channel that I've seen that cuts to ads exactly when UA-cam ads start. Is this an option you can pick, or is gian just a beast?
It’s an option to be less annoying. UA-cam will puts the ads on anytime anyway.
People remove the cylinder to crank case gasket to increase the compression ratio.
Don't worry the vast majority of us hate those "takeovers" too

Benny has anyone told you that you look like Travis kelce Taylor Seifts squeeze
They haven’t.
Ooooh, the big-bore kit! You've probably gone from 2 hp to 4 hp! Be careful!
I knew a guy in the late 90s who had a GoPed. He used to ride it at huge concerts. I remember it being loud, stinky and dangerous, lol.
Just like your mother.
I have a blue one of these. What's the upgraded motor you put on it? And did you get it from goped US site,
I got all of the parts from DDM in the US but they also have ready to go performance bolt on engines too
It needs a new rear tyre? We wanna see you do a lil skid on it
Yes 2 strokes work from the back pulse from the exhaust so a turbo would mess with that
lol, the ASMR beard scraping was amazing
Will be back for more yarns loved the video
In the states we call coffee trucks Roach Coaches.
I wonder if it’s a pure coffee truck or it also carries food like our Roach Coaches. Some of the trucks that came to my construction sites cooked up some serious meals on griddles/grills.

It is actually the 30.5cc kit as I found out later :D

Not in Benny's size, sorry mate.
Wonder if that front brake is factory? Looks dodgy enough to come from Mopar parts catalog. I guess it's close enough for the application.
Yes that’s how all goped sports are
That song is for taco or food trucks here where I live in America lol
wait till you get the piston run in
Gonna ride it in the next video?
2-stroke only like supercharging.
wouldn't a two stroke self lube a turbo with the oily exhaust?
I doubt you’d get any oil into the bearings
👍👍👍
Is someone wearing depends? what the hell is that soft plastic crunching sound
😅 gian has a nylon tracksuit
You doin Hardass1000?
Not sure atm
some of them battery powered scooters go 60km an hour.. that is nuts fast...
Hey I thought Gian would look more like Benny
no base gasket was for higher comp
It could work if it was sealed
You can't blow a gasket if there isn't one there.
