Thanks again for watching!
The Felt Faker motor ready frame kit sold by Walmart was just advertised for $599, 12 guage spokes, 3.4L tank, rear kick stand, l don't know, it looks heavy duty with better features plus the seat is located in the proper place.
Yup this is super heavy duty and it’s also the new style of frame. They had a gasbike frame before this one and some of them were very flimsy and head thinner rear dropouts and mag rims. They definitely made good choices when choosing what parts were going to be used.
Not me. I bought a nice comfortable leather seat and I bought a cover for it with memory foam and it's great! I can ride for hours and my ass still doesn't hurt
Yup I did the same bought a better seat
Lock washers on the sprocket bolts and they will never come loose
Cool definitely will try that also with the addition of lock tight
did the bike come with the huge hole in the frame near the kick stand?
It’s so you can access the kickstand bolt. I kinda wish they just put a longer bolt in to cover that hole. Most likely I will replace the stock hardware with my own.
Oh hock ya my man! That thing will be a beats for sure.
Yup I can’t wait to go for the first ride!
Red coat tank sealer first one I Bought had a hole going into one of the tubes and you couldn't see Bought a second bike said no way this could happen twice yep after about a week the fuel started eating through the paint that's what I put on mine a minaralli my second has my phantom experament on it looks good I got blue as well ride safe I'll be watching for your video I'm going to subscribe to this channel
Thanks man glad you subbed I will be definitely lining the tank now
@@keeganhache6667 it's easier to do it before you put oily gas into the tank . I didn't get a F zero bicycle frame I got a screaming demon v2 bicycle from bicycle engine similar but I think the f zero has a sturdier frame but at the time they didn't have any in stock so I went with the screaming demon then I found out about the sturdier frame hind site is always 20/20 cant complain got one bike free got the second half price
@@mikemiller3303 nice man sounds like a good deal to me. Be carful with those Screaming Demon gasbike frames, the rear dropouts are very thin and can’t hold a high-performance motor. Anything under a yd100 will be ok however I wouldn’t recommend doing over 35mph on that frame, they have A lot of flex for being aluminum.
@@keeganhache6667 dam I've been 45 mph with my minaralli on it
I’m not saying it can’t be done it’s just not the safest route. Watch la hovers video on the Screaming Demon frame and it pretty much sums it up
Bro. Again great stuff. I have a phatmoto rover and my frame looks good. Like yours. Mine is 4 strokes of coarse and took a full day just to make it usable. Question is what size is the down tube on the bike cause I don’t like adapters. Sucks having to do so much work on a pricey bike. Thanks K.
I believe the down tube is 32mm on the felt faker style frames. I hear you with the doing work on pricy bikes but once you get them dialled they will be solid. Thanks for watching brother
that is a nice looking bike
Thanks man
Did the back wheel come installed?
Are you putting a breather on the gas cap? I noticed a few people have done that... I didn't know if it was necessary.. but I just ordered this bike last night so trying to download as much info as possible into my brain.
I just took the stock seal out of the tank and put it on the inside edge of the gas cap. Than I drilled a very small hole for the tank to vent properly. Now it doesn’t leak a drop.
Never understood how they could sell a frame and say it's made specifically for motorized bike and yet you have to use adapters to fit the motor on it
I didn’t end up using any cnc adapter. Just put a couple washers on the rear motor mount. However these gas bike frames are not any different than putting a motor on a regular bike. Besides the sprocket and gas tank you will still have to install all the other parts and possibly have small issues. The reason us builders buy this frame is so it can handle a powerful engine setup without destroying itself.
Any advice on how to keep the seat from dropping in the back? The brackets won't keep it up, as soon as I sit on it, it slides down the back of the bike... and I'm not even a fat ass!! lol
Make sure your mounting brackets are on super tight and that they sit flush on the frame. My seat worked great but I found it not good for longer rides so I ended up getting a standard bike seat. But those back clamps really need to be snug I had the same thing happen on mine did some bending on the brackets to get them perfect
Palm face* is that kickstand bolted through the frame? Not a good way it could weaken the integrity of frame. Did you ever figure out if aluminum quality is good or decent
Dude the frame is used in the SoCal motorized bike racing association. That should give you a idea of how strong it is. Also that kick stand hole doesn’t matter. I’ve seen Minnrelli cylinder bikes with this frame and they held up great. Don’t just assume because it’s from bikeberry that the quality is bad
Whats is the name of that spacer that the brake disk is mounted on anyone know?
Can a Predator motor fit on that bike
Yup
What do you call those type of brakes?
They are disk brakes
@@keeganhache6667 Thanks bro.
Did the suspension forks come with your bike?
Yup
@@keeganhache6667 Just wondering cause Bike berry advertizes them with out, I'm confused!
@@skipstalforce the Fzero shows in the pictures it coming with suspension
@@keeganhache6667 I know! But it says nonsuspension forks! Thanks Keegan
bike manufacturer? Thanks
Yeah man it’s from bikeberry and it’s called the F-zero
I got mine today, and everything is broken.
Where did you get the mounts for the banana seat that you hooked to the frame? I can’t find them anywhere do you know the name of the website?
They came with the bike you could easily make them out of sheet metal
