- Опубліковано 18 лис 2018
- I am in shock it has already been a year. This bike has done great and never let me down. So many people ask about this bike and watch the videos so thank you for that I figured I should make a video showing how this bike held up and what I like and don't like about it. I really hope you enjoy the video and I look forward to taking this bike to the next level. Let me know what you think. Thanks for watching and I look forward to seeing you on the next video.

I got mine at Walmart 2 years ago for $399 on sale, never tore into the engine no mods always full throttle 100+ hours still got good compression and no issues. Thing is literally a tank
They are solid machines for sure. You got a good deal.
Burning Rubber Garage do you know where you can get one now?
Might want to check Facebook marketplace might have to get used or the camo one is at tractor supply.
Burning Rubber Garage ok bro like I called sams club and they said that it’s a every now and again thing so I might get one there
If I find one I will post the link here
I just watched every video on this bike you have. I picked the camo version up from a store for $107 not running. I'm waiting for a few more parts to come in and will get it back on the road. Thanks for the series, it was cool to see your version and take on it compared to the many others I've watched. I hit the sub button as well.
Thanks for watching. Sounds like you got a great deal on your bike Heck you can get a me new motor for a hundred bucks. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
Pretty good video dude. I always love honest reviews
Thanks for the kind words and watching. It is a fun bike on a smooth trail lol
Thanks for input, just placed my order to gopower for the mod. kit, your the first who said it presented issues that I've heard.
Your welcome. I hope you enjoy it.I hope I am the only one with the issues honestly.
My parents surprised me with it and I crashed it first try. But it still works! Very powerful piece of machinery. But definitely recommend it! But when you ride it you have to get used to how sensitive the gas is!
Thank u for this review I've been toying with the idea of getting one and it looks like a blast
They are very fun but if you can get one with at least front suspension.
@@NVSRides thank you for the info my local princess auto carries the one with suspension!
You will be glad you got it.
Thanks man, great review.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the information 👍
I got the one with the suspension and its definitely worth it
from where?
@@alannimenendez5029 tractor supply, look it up online and see if they have any stock at a store near you. I'm pretty sure the model is a 200EX (EX) for extreme I'm pretty sure. I got camo with a front suspension and a headlight, the gas tank is a storage compartment that hold a wallet, phone, and a couple waters, a pack of smokes, lighter, and shooters of fireball. The last time I looked the new ones for this year 2021 are a black camo which looks sweet! I rode the hell out of mine and kept doing wheelies and a screw came out off where the sprocket was so I sold it used for $500
Rural King also has them
Thanks man We have the same mods! Thank god I watch part 2 lol I haven’t turn my bike on yet! Tomorrow 7 am waking to get some 1030w ! And a spring
I bought the one with the suspension for my granddaughter. I ride it quite a bit just to get around on my 5 acres. Riding it just the way we got it with no mods. Starts easy and runs great. Had it about a year.
Just bought one. The only mods I'm doing with it is to switch the motor with an electric start Honda (same size and will last a life time). With a battery you can run a small inverter (for charging devices) and run lights for camping. A perfect bug out bike!
Dave Underwood have you done it
When you get a new header like you have, it supports the extra back flow of the engine making it less compact when revving super high after the governor disable. I have a couple of those engines also and it's been doing just fine for months disabled governor.
I just brought this bike for myself can't wait to ride it got it on sale at Dunhams my Christmas present to me
You will like it once you get it set up for you. Merry Christmas!
got mine a year ago and added a predator hemi, with 22lb valve springs, and the gov. removed. put the juggernaut torque converter, sunf tires, and a mb200 storm rear rim fitted with a brake rotor paired with a dual piston hydraulic brake caliper. can hit 60 miles per hour and break on a dime. i should also mention i have a ct200u fork suspension kit from coleman powersports and it still is a tank and starts first pull even in winter
I own coleman BT200X I got it used for 300$ and I Love it. Best 300 I ever spent. It has the front suspension and heavy duty 1.5 inch tube frame. I ride it like a maniac and do donuts and jump it and go full throttle no governor and its a beast every day. (No governor, short piped exhaust, no air box mod)
I bought my bike used it’s a 2015 model I hope it lasts a while so far doing good I have a pipe installed and upgraded air filer and upgraded carb I still have the governor installed it hits 26mph.
those engines are impossible to blow. the case bolts vibrated out after 5 years and all the oil drained out on me on a ride. took it home tightened it and put more oil in it and it still runs great. things an absolute tank
My exhaust POPS!!! & pops LOOOOOOOUUUUUUDDDDD!!! After acceleration, upon throttle release... I have the same stage1 kit. Except i have the bigger Jet in the carb. Maybe that's what causes the POPS. but I wouldn't change that. LOVE the POPS
Have you looked into disk brakes? Can you put one on the front?
very cool brings back memories of the bike I had as a kid. it was rather rigid and hard on the body to ride.
That is very funny and well said. It is hard I the body to ride but worth it. Thanks for watching?
That cart hauls butt....& it's a great digger on the hill....pretty sweet!!
Thanks for watching I was impressed as well. I am not a light kid either.
Wes Lovelace fun af on the road I finally wheelies it
What's the difference between the CT200Uand the CT200U-A?
Do I need the jack shaft shield ? Or can I just completely remove it?
If I put a torque converter on it, backed out the throttle, but did not remove the governor would I still have speed gains?
Hey bro just askin where did u get this from and where r u from?
3 yrs still good
you can buy the shocks from coleman that were on the one that came with suspensioin. you can also buy shocks for a 50cc pitbike on amazon for 30 bucks theres videos of people putting those on this bike, its what i plan on doing down the road
I will look into this. Thanks
Great video! I really want to get one, but I need to convince my parents to let me buy/build one
Maybe don't show them a modded one lol. I really hope you get one they are a blast.
I agree! Thank you! I have a Honda 5.5 horse power 163cc motor that I'll probably put on once I get a frame that comes with something small like a 80cc.
That would be amazing if you built one. I hope you post videos
How do u turn the light on
Nice...I'm looking for a Trailmaster MB200
Will a predator 212 wit torque converter fit?
Starting problems are 99% usually you need to adjust intake valve lash. Real easy to do
If you install a Torque converter, it will help slow/ break it down for you.
Pretty bad ass. I always had a dream of riding something like that right across a continent...either usa asia or africa.
groundskeeper 52 same here. A 50cc scooter would be cool even.
I like the racks, I got one new in the box ,I need to get it together..mine don't have racks I don't think
Can you put the 301cc predator motor on there ??
I just bought 2 of them from sams club and I hope they will be good for my neighborhood
don't take the muffler off like I did and I think you will be fine. Thanks for checking this video out. Check out a few of my others for more content on this bike.
Burning Rubber Garage Ok thanks!
And are you supposed to oil the clutch?
I have not oiled at all.
Can someone plz tell me what’s the max speed
Can anyone tell me the dimensions of this frame?
I would install a 212cc predator engine. It will fit...but it's a tight fit with the gas tank. I ordered a $50 eBay torque converter and a $20 1" engine riser kit from GPS. Also, all the Performance parts you currently have installed will work on a 212cc. Plus if you install a torgue converter you will not need to remove the governor.
Why? The stock engines are fine. People were buying 212's just for the 3/4" shaft to make it easy for TAV install. A new crankshaft for the stock engine is the way I would go. And while I was in there I would install a cam.
TIP !! GEt the EBC Brake shoes for Coleman mini bikes
@3:49 pogo stick someone of the back end ooo my goodness 😳🥴🤕🛵🍑🥢🤡🤣🤣
if I got the performance parts Does it make faster.. or is it that just the governor.
It will accelerate faster but won't really add any top speed. Removing the governor will be your best bang for the buck
3:00 would a higher grade gas make it start easier? I’m guessing your putting low grade gas. That or octane booster in the low grade gas
(I’m kinda new to this don’t rag on me tooooo hard lol)
Just use starter fluid every time bro! it's that simple, start, it get it running and you're good to go ........ you got the right idea brother
Is there an alternative bike with similar specs and frame etc? I've been looking for one for several months.
I can't buy this in Europe/Germany over the normal sites because they don't offer international shipping and I can't find it on Ebay or Amazon etc...
Should be able to find something by typing in tote goat in Amazon. Might not be exactly the same though.
im 14 but idk whether if i want this or the ct100u. im probably 5’6”-5’8”. but the drum vs disc brake, engine displacement, and size is throwing me off. what should i do?
This is a tough call because I think the smaller would be fun as well. If you are going to do hardcore riding not just on the streets go with the bigger one
It's A FUCK YEAH I love love love this thing!!!!! MT. BEAST!!!!
The hard starting is probably do to it being too lean. The straight exhaust and less restrictive air filter have leaned out the fuel mixture. You should install a larger jet in the carburetor to compensate.
I will see what I put in and what else I can go with
You should get the Colman ct200ex suspension kit
Why do you think it became harder to crank after the stage 1 mod. kit install, now I mite not get one.
I have not clue. I just know it was fine until I put that kit on.
How is it now
Anyone have an idea on the size socket to remove the spark plug?
Should be 5/8 or 13/16. Not sure which one off the top of my head. Hope that helps.
@@NVSRides ok thx man, I'll be sure to try 👍🏽💯
Hello i have a question i have this bike now for bout a month and i hate the tires on it can i use a size 20 tire from tractor supply they don’t have 19 size tires would a 20 fit theses rims on the Coleman mini bike?
As long as the rim size is the same it should fit. Worst case is your remove the fenders. I will have to look next time I get the bike out.
Burning Rubber Garage thanks this information helps
I noticed the short black hose that goes from the intake to the shiny valve box is missing, I see the empty hole where it went, is this because of the intake mod. and what was it's purpose.
It's just a crank case vent
i gave a boy 300 for a used 2018 ct200u and its ragged out, they didnt take care of it. left it outside. everything is rusty, so im starting off replacing parts. rode it once and it bout beat me to death. the suspension will come after i get a new clutch and chain and carb on it. then ill put some 3 inch springs under the seat, then make a wider seat. i was having a hard time even finding a mini bike frame for less than 200 bucks. from what ive heard from coleman owners is, damn near all the gas tank lids leak. mine leaks, i replaced it and it still leaks. thinkin of getting a different kind of tank for it. and i hate those fat tires and wheels. im lookin into replacing them with some about half that wide and a smaller front tire. its just a project, dont know if i will put a tav on it or not. have fun with yours, enjoyed the vid
Sounds like a long but fun road ahead. I really would like to see it when your done.
I have almost 200 hours on mine.so far its fine
How long did you have bike before you removed the governor. Is it still going.
I did it within a few months of buying it and yes it is still running. Thanks for watching.
Would you say it wood be to tough for a young person to crank with the mod. kit?
It just takes lots of pulls. If they can pull it eventually they will get it to start.
No, my 10 year old son has no problem cranking the ct200u after installing the stage 1 mod. kit.
Looking into getting a mini bike with a 600$ limit. Would you say this would the best option?
Colman bt200x
It has been a great bike. If you look used you might be able to find a crf50 which is fun as well. With that budget you could buy the Coleman and have money for mods. 😁
They come with a very cold plug and that is a lot of the starting problem. Make sure the new plug isn't longer than the original. Set the gap before installing plug. Get it at a honda motorcycle shop.
I will look into getting a better plug. Thanks for the heads up
What sort of run time do you get per tank?
It will last a good portion of the day. Most of mind spills out the cap while turning 😂.
Really cool little bike....I bet that thing beats you up though with no suspension
Depends on the trail but it will beat you up good at times.
So the weight limit is 200 and I'm about 215 and trying to get to 270 in muscle would that be a problem on this bike ?
Get a Colman BT200x
What age would this be recommended for because I was thinking the ct100 but it might be to small also I’m 11 and I’m 5,6 feet tall
You could ride this. My 11 year old loved it until the mods got put on it sadly then it was to fast for her comfort level.
Thanks for watching
Thanks and no probs
Dang why you so dang tall my dude I'm 12 and I'm 5 flat
It sounds like a beefy lawn mower lol, jk kidding Pretty cool little toy. Oh ya no suspension its gonna ride rough. Watching you go up the hill would be a cool toy for my desert trails. oh snap rear brake only, not good lol. but for a toy bike, seems pretty cool. Conversation piece for sure. Nice review Cameron.
Thanks buddy. I keep watching your videos and telling myself to post something lol. Your videos always make me hungry bro.
Keep it active brotha. 2 month gap sometimes hurts the channel. But I know we all have that thing call life we deal with. Just do you my brotha.
Thanks for watching. You still do the live streams? Have not been notified in a long time for one. Keep up the good work on your channel and food. I bet Thanksgiving at your house is out of control.
No I haven't been doing the live streams. I have taken a step back and just wanna focus on videos. I am trying to find my channel identity and grow. Once I get to that point, I will do lives. But it will be a special event. Im taking it easy this year for Thanksgiving. I am not hosting it thise year for the past 6 years.
I have mine going 33 mph rn trying to figure out a running tich issue lol
try a carb rejet to around a .037 jet if it's hard to start probably running lean :)
Do you know any reason why my Coleman ct200u decelerates so quickly after letting off the throttle?
Not really sure but I would check the throttle cable and the brake. Brake could be grabbing so when you get off the gas it slows you down quick and doesn't roll. Hope it is am easy fix. Let me know. Hard to figure out when I am not by the bike.
because your centrifugal clutch is engaged
for me 400$ is a lot because i searched on craigslist and got a brand new one for 260$
“Brand new”
Lol
Same
What? people are selling used one for $500~600
Looking for an opinion here. I live in a pretty urban environment, no dirt riding anywhere close (Fort Lauderdale, beach area) So all asphalt riding only. The little bike looks sooo much fun! (and that's coming from someone who sold a Vmax a few months ago, lol)
Do they make slick version tires at that size, for this bike? And is it safe to share a road with cars, as long as I'm keeping up with traffic? Drivers here are obnoxiously bad, and the fact that you're crouching down like that doesn't help with visibility. Any south Florida owners here can pitch in? I would avoid busy roads as much as feasible.
FYI - I'm posting this same question on other review vids, in case you've seen this before 😉
These are 20 mph trail bikes stock. In order to keep up with traffic you would need at least a few mods to get a 40 mph bike. And street tires would help.
so i recently bought one, and i feel dumb for askin but it only has one gear right? also when i go down hills it makes like a weird scratching noise i guess.
Yes just go or no go. No gears on this beast. It will sound a bit different than a normal geared motorcycle.
Don't ever feel dumb for asking questions and learning. We all start somewhere
Burning Rubber Garage thanks bro!
Anytime thanks for watching
r u saying if u dont take out the governor ur motor will give out?
Taking out the governor will increase the odds your engine will not last if you ride it hard. Taking out the governor will increase the fun factor of the bike immensely though.
@@NVSRides is there anyway to fix it
Luv my Colman bt200x with Tillotson 212 10hp out of box, Torque Converter, 60 tooth rear sprocket an SunF Power ll tires 💪
Did you like the Sprocket upgrade
I have a silly question - Can I ride this in my neighborhood without getting screwed with by the police?
I rode it in mine when the exhaust was stock. Nobody said a word. But they could complain and no it isn't street legal
Probably not
I ride mine in the neighborhood and get lots of thumbs up & requests for wheelies lol that being said I'm respectful when I ride, dont rip full throttle through the streets, stop at stop signs & ride during the afternoons, no morning or evenings
I'm 6 foot and 187 pounds. Am I too big for this?
No I am 6 foot and 200 pounds. You will be just fine.
I’m saving up for one is it a good idea?
Maybe get the one with front suspension if you can. Otherwise yes it is fun.
Hey what’s the break in period on this bike? I can’t find it anywhere
Just got on and took it a little easy the first tank them ripped on it and she is still going strong. I think you mean it in how your going to ride it. Most take it easy the first tank of gas though. Thanks for watching.
CT200U vs CT200U-A?
Would the bike go up the hill before the performance upgrade ?
Yes it would but not as easy. This gets it in the powerband quicker add just makes the bike more fun.
Thanks for watching.
@@NVSRides I am looking for a mini bike to use as a pitbike for our car, drag racing hobby. I just recently started paying attention to the Mini bike following. I did not realize how big the interest and hobby is. I am thinking the Coleman 100(3 hp) is all we need to cruise around the pavement at the track. I have spotted one local that is $200, and seems to be in good shape. Thanks for the videos.
I think it will be good for that. The bigger one might haul two people better but on pavement that is flat you will be good
I had the same problem with the gas leaking from the tank and i noticed that the cap wasn’t sitting COMPLETELY flat. It was SLIGHTLY off and it was leaking just like yours. So you might want to check if yours is sitting flat if not you can just buy a new cap for a few bucks
Ok, so the thing is, I currently have terrible internet, which means buffering. We have all been there, BUT IF IT IS INTERNET RELATED (only happens when i have bad internet.) WHY DO THE ADS PLAY WITHOUT A HOP, SKIP, OR A JUMP? (CONSISTANTLY)
Why why is a Really Loud exhaust a good thing to you?
Because it is fun. I don't like super loud cars as that gets old but on a bike that sees little use I like it.
I’m 5’7 will I fit this?
I am six foot and fit fine
Is it this loud out of the box?
No this one is straight piped.
I lost the screw that holds my cluch😭
gopowersports.com has every coleman part
It's usually a 3/8 or 1/4 20 bolt that holds it in
Where did you buy your mods and tires boss really would appreciate it?
Go power sports and I found the tires online but can't remember where. 😕
Are you able to still buy these anywhere?
Always around used
Burning Rubber Garage I saw them at sams club for 250$ on Black Friday
You mentioned that your sparkplug was the original, maybe a new plug wood help your starting issues, cheap fix possibly.
I might try an e3
The spark plug you need is an Autolite 3910x..it will run you around $8 but it will really bring out that stage one kit you added. It won't help much with making the engine easier to start, but you'll definitely notice a big difference. The reason the bike is hard to start is due to the valve springs. This is very common issue when you remove the governor and change out the valve springs. I have the same bike...lots of fun...mine has a 212cc predator engine, stage one kit and an eBay torque converter.
I think a torque converter would be great. I will try the auto lite plug you mentioned.
Kelly Moore would*
Mine was 600
I put the pipe on and the only thing I don’t like is how it gets so hot I wish they made a heat shield for the pipe
You can get a roll of exhaust wrap for $15 on Amazon. That helps
@@benruether8294 yeah but it smokes when I put that on
Yes ,I run ethanol free fuel in all my small engines with great results.
That is what I run as well in any small engine or old car
is it fast?
It gets up and goes now. Wasn't to crazy stock.
Nice man! I would pull the trigger but I’d like to see one with a suspension for $500 or so
I can't say I blame you. This bike is still fun but can be a rough ride.
@@NVSRides just got one of these things, helluva lot of fun. What I would do next tho is remove the racks and fenders. Personal tho, sense all this is new to me, got both the front and back fenders off including the front rack, but I'm sorta scared to dig out the back, due to it being so attached to the rear axle.
Plus, could you make a video (when you have time of course) explaining how to tune the brake? Not sure how to do that sorta brake tuning stuff without messing it up more. Keep up the great vids, they help a lot 👍💯
Rusty Zipper taco mini bikes have a swingarm rear and springer front end for suspension
What's the specific purpose of this bike?
Just to ride and have fun. I guess taking it camping would be fun as well. I would ride only well maintained roads unless you get the one with suspension.
@@NVSRides camping does sound like a good idea, thanks for the quick answer
No problem. If you get one play with tire pressure to help with the rough ride. Thank you for the comment.
Is it very big
Yes it is a good size bike. I don't feel squished on it.
Yup I bought mine from Sam's club
I didn't know they had them when I bought mine or I would have as well.
@@NVSRides same here, it was my first time there soon as I seen it got it
I'm turning my CT200U into a firewood hauler.
That would be great for it.
If you don't like the problem starting it after the mods then leave it stock
