  • We test three of the most popular mini bikes in the mountains! In this mini bike challenge, we test the Trailmaster MB200 vs. the Trailmaster Hurricane 200x vs. the Mega Moto with full suspension. The Trailmaster Hurricane is a new mini bike we haven't ridden before, and it is by far the nicest stock mini bike we've ever ridden. The Mega Moto was a prototype race mini bike, with 10" wheels, a built Tillotson 212, and a sweet swing arm kit. The TrailMaster MB200 was our tried and true option. It was equipped with a stage 1 performance kit, header, and 60T sprocket. The MB200 was surprisingly fast considering it was our "budget" mini bike!
    Thanks for Watching!

      Take the time to jet those bikes properly, makes all the difference in the world! Look into adjustable jets for the stock carbs. Cost a few bucks, but sure are nice for changing conditions. GPS should carry them if they don’t!

    Ike "It's a 4L60" ROFL
    I think John said it best with "It's a good time to be into minibikes".
    The Gas charged shocks must be a huge improvement over the standard coil-overs with little more than rubber to dampen the spring oscillation.
    Looks like lots of fun!

    I once rode a GSX-R 1000 that had like two teeth off the front sprocket and plus four on the rear, that thing was vertical more often than a flagpole. It's amazing what gearing can do, I imagine Ike would have completely disappeared if he had the same sprocket. Cheers fellas.

    An easier upgrade to the gearing is to replace the drive sprocket from 10 to 9 teeth! $12 and you can reuse the chain and you get very similar gear reduction! FYI, I’m at Zion canyon in Utah right now! Going to Bryce and Arches in the next couple days!

I also removed my fenders and the makes it even faster because less drag! Enjoy you just got yourself a great reliable off road tested 👏🏽💪🏽🔥

    Your 3 KX 80's would kick the crap out of all these mini bikes in every category. Suspension, gearing, power, handling, ergonomics, mileage, speed, safety, ground clearance, traction, brakes, reliability, looks, and overall enjoyment. Minibikes are great when you're new at off roading, or a little kid, but eventually, you grow out of them (well, most do).

      @@toyyoda3710 A long time ago, when these guys were first starting out, they were fumbling with many mistakes that were borderline dangerous for them. Being a welder/fabricator and retired pro ATV racer myself, I tried giving them several suggestions. You know what their response was? (Yeah, they used to respond to people) It was "It'll be fine". My last suggestion to these guys was "Stop wearing that visorless open face helmet. It doesn't protect your face and you look like goons with it." They went out and bought a full closed face helmet, then took the visor off. SMH...and that fishnet chest protector with built in armpads...OMG. Can you believe John actually tried that on, looked in the mirror and said "Oh yeah! I look sweet. We'll take this."
      Salesman: "Will there be anything else? Boots, jersey, riding pants (leathers), goggles?"
      John: "Nah, we got some really cool colored sunglasses from a Happy Meal. But I'll take a pair of those snow ski gloves and 1 of those "Oh-Shit Neck Protectors", if you throw in a pair of those big ass kneepads."

    You guys should get Lectron carburettors. Its like having fuel injection. They also self tune for elevation and hot and cold weather. You save crazy amounts on gas and you'll never foil a plug. I've been using the same plug for 2 years now and before i would foul plugs almost every ride
    . Always had to hit powerband to keep plugs from fouling and now I can drive my 2 stroke ktm 200sx like a 4 cylinder without worrying on fouling a plug. One of the best investment on any carbureted machine
