Same dude tried tearing me down on one of my videos.
My response?
"Don't Do What Nick Does."
I never claimed to be a How To channel, I just simply enjoy sharing my experiences building, riding and repairing bikes; and maybe learning a few new skills along the way
You are one of the most chill builders online lol, Seriously... Someone giving Nick grief is like being angry at Bob Ross for not painting the "Mona Lisa"
😂😂😂
There are always people that will attack things like this. They don't understand the time investment of something like this, and why the resulting cost seems so high. They are only looking at the base material cost. When you ignore the fact that a person had to unbox, inspect, setup tools and equipment to do work, do the actual work, and maintain a level of quality control to provide a good product, obviously something like this is going to be cheaper. A couple of hours at $50-100 an hour adds up fast.
Well said!
@Matthew Johnston Same, but there are always "those people" who just don't see the big picture.
Well when mine just showed up. Wouldn't even start went on Facebook found people to help. Ended up being squish was almost 2mm out of the box. Seller just said sand it. Not my problem. Now for the $430 I just paid I would expect it to be cheap but it should of been functional. You said your paying for a running kit. Was not the case by far.
@@upinsmoke1206 You paid for the parts. Not the labor and experience that makes them work together with the crankcase and connecting rod. That is why they call them kits. Some work and assembly required.
@@OddBallPerformance that would be a negative. Was pre made kit. Now it's a pile of parts cause never ran out of the box. Spacer is to big they told me. A person in my fb group pointed it out in photos I posted. Pain in ass what it is. Buy a kit put it on and ride. Not to spend 4 weeks buying more parts or fixing parts thst should of been done correctly when it arrived. Waste of 380$ when you still have to fix the thing before you can even use it. Now that you see the 800+ 1 star feedback on southern customs I wish never bought the damn thing
Over 20 years of bad back and sawyering here; keep shoveling that sawdust, it's a honourable job. Thanks for the ride.
Saw build saw build saw build! Let Build Break Fix know you don't push products. This rivalry between Amos, DLH, Smolik, that guy and you is exhausting. I don't wanna hear crap, I wanna hear braap. Thank you and don't forget where Czech republic is.
i got my first motor for my 12th birthday. i had no idea what to do with it but when I got my first truck me and my dad had to do an engine swap, after that I realized I had a little 2 stroke I got for my birthday, so i looked up some videos and yours happened to be the fist one I came across , now I've saved up and recently bought a new motor and still ride to this day . so thank you foor all the knowledge you have provided and i hope you keep up the hard work !
Holes will make an improvement, symmetrically to balance piston weight. Running a little rich, yet no 4 stroking. Good job there.
Keep doing what you do. I just started my moterized bike journey and I do enjoy watching your videos because if the very reason you spoke of. I don't have time or money to buy everything to determine what is what. And you have always been straight forward when describing something and if you happen to review something you know nothing about you tell ppl that, and that it just your opinion. I love the facts you throw out there you give enough information on your opinion that satisfies curiosities. Oh and you be a fellow Louisiana resident. I'm in the southwest LA. though. Keep up the good videos.
Lookin forward to part 2, been a member of the channel for a good while and I love your unbiased input, the people in the community who are coming at you like that aren’t actually into building the bikes, they just want instant gratification and don’t respect people like you or smolik who (despite their past) dedicate so many hours to the hobby, me myself I’m two years into it and I still have a long way to go to build the “perfect” bike, one that’s fast AND reliable, of course that doesn’t go without a LOT of problem shooting along the way and that to me isn’t an issue, I love building these bikes and I love the looks I get on it either smiles or grimaces so be it lol, keep up the good work man I’m sure I speak for the whole community when I say you are a godsend to us showing the ins and outs of different kits/bike combinations, and the problems and everything we’ll expect to run into, I hope we could do a huge group ride some day that would be super fun, I always see people puttin around and I’ve yet to meet my match on one around my area, I have a lot more work to put into this thing too and I’m excited to see what it transforms into
I have to say it's so refreshing to view your new videos LA. I appreciate all that you do for the community, motorized bike community that is. Ride safe my friend!
Your rides always is such a big help information that you provide really helps everyone out I know it helps me out I’ve been doing it for over 10 years keep doing what you’re doing you help everybody out so much I really appreciate it
Why am I the 1st "LIKE" when there's 16 Comments ahead of me?Seems like bbf had a hair twisted,or just a bad day.I Don't fault a person for that,but to belittle a hardworking person pushed a Big button.You give us Great information by using Your money and time.You've earned our respect,and admiration.I got 'potato'camera comments when I started and it was true.I cut lawns to earn food money and had to cut back to try a cheap camera because I like riding in my area,and thought others would like to see some.Much like your area,there's open land and great scenery.Thank you LA.I have a steel sleeved cylinder and now know I have to be more careful because of this video.Just an FWI to all the fans:I have 2 sets of the 5-spoke alloy wheels and was using 'Caliper'brakes instead of the disc option.Yesterday I found the front wheel had split along the tire bead as the brakes wore some metal.Thankfully I wasn't riding at the time.It'd been hot,and 1/3 the outer ring just split off because of wear,not faulty rims.
Glad you caught that before it got worse. Rocks and mud also getting imbedded into the brake pads on a trail bike slowly eat through the rim as well.
I feel ya on the wind. Its been like 2 weeks of non stop wind with few breaks where i live. I enjoyed the ride and the commentary. Love the bike!
lol
You and I: "What a nice day for a ride!"
The wind: "NOPE!"
@@LAHover yup! That sums it up perfectly.
Support you all the way and as always look forward to watching your videos,
Much appreciated
Keep the good work up LA. I've learned a lot more from your content then from those other dudes! Two thumbs up!
Love your videos man, I can’t wait to get my minarelli all built and on a bike. I have lots left to go, but it will be fun and has been.
what's going on I really look forward to your videos and the issues u go over. I'm a new builder to this hobby and so far I enjoy it, and your right it is fun. so fare I've built three bikes. all China dolls but u have been a big help keep doing what u do mike James Arkansas kid
I totally agree with you on small businesses...
There's always one jerk who is a DAREN and has to ruin a good thing for everyone else...
It goes to show the type of person he/she/it Is .... Great job to all of the small businesses that won't let a negative jerk off bring them down...!!!!
Love your vids dude I just built my first one from a Kent seachange bike the only problems I'm having is blowing out the bearings in the wheel hub on the rear tire
THANK YOU SIR KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
Thanks for supporting the small businesses, we appreciate it!
I am also investigating soft seizing with the cast iron cylinders. We'll get it sorted out eventually
Let NO ONE forget that you guys also provide valuable information to the DIY builders. Your products are a nice bonus :)
I'm in south texas I've had mine soft sieze a few times I think its the heat I'm not sure I started using a cheap banana pipe and it runs alot cooler
@@LAHover Bro Can you make a video On the upgraded carbs runtong How to tune them Honestly Id buy a few have them sent to you I'm having issues with mine, I always have to go back to the simple nt carbs
great video
Hey sorry for my bad English btw... im living in Germany, i know a lot of haedegg because laws and restrictions and so on, but i decidet to start this hobby and see what i can do to my first build. "Just slamming a Motor onto a Bike" is more than just said, just because of these inexpensive Kits and the given Information i could learn so much about these type of motors, also a fun contrast to my Office-Job. Keep up the good Work, if my ride gets up and running I'll show it to UA-cam
💯you the best at wat you going 💯don’t stop
Great video, great info!
I’ve been watching your videos for about years now n just wanted to say I appreciate your motorized bike info. It’s helped me out a lot.
Thanks man
We appreciate you brother
I run 75% throttle 98% of the time. I'll let it fly every once in awhile for maybe around 30 seconds or so. I've lost horsepower from the engine being hot, but I have never ever had any of my engines stop. A little respect to the engine goes along way in terms of wear.
Another nice ride. Cheers
Hi there again LA hover, awesome ride. A bit rough obviously but very thrilling to see that thing finally open up a bit. This video was so educational for me as I’m planning on building a minerali during the summer and I would really like to see what drilling a few small holes in the piston could do as after watching this, the soft seizures do make me a little bit nervous, even with a high compression head. There is one thing on my bike though that I would personally like to get you’re opinion on (yet again) is my rear wheel. Primarily the home made sprocket set up I have, as we all know you’re obviously 100 percent honest when it comes to giving feed back on motorized bike parts. And believe me when I say this thing is STRONG! Like in my mind it’s almost a middle class DIY version of the Gemini rear wheel. It combines the disc hub with the clamp on hub adapter and 2 sprockets. By using one sprocket with a bigger centre diameter hole to go over the disc hub and use a second cnc sprocket with all pre drilled holes for any kind of mounts, mounting it to the disc hub with good quality bolts and using it to space the first sprocket with washers and nuts for a perfect chain alignment. Then on the first sprocket with the bigger centre howl was the one I mounted the clamp on adapter too on the other side just for some extra stability and strength. You may not get what I’m saying but I did upload a video of it but I honestly mainly just wanted to get you’re opinion on it for an out side voice. As I honestly don’t think any other outside voice would be better then yours since I honestly kind of just want some honest feed back on it which is kind of what you do best. If you have any time at all to watch the vid and give me some feed back on it, it would be so much appreciated and really mean a lot to me. Anyways thanks so much for your time and the awesome vids all the time.
ua-cam.com/video/CDEG0bGyvek/v-deo.html
Now that is thinking outside the box. Liked and commented.
Smart uses of the clamp on adapter too.
I think that sometimes people forget what skills they have and how much time was spent developing those skills. The undervalue what they know and therefore think that for most people, what they do should be easy.
Yep, great job, keep it up too. I been watching your progress for a couple years now so hey keep it twisted and ignore the Daren’s that can’t do what you do, they jealous bro.
Love what u do I started building bikes as a hobby around 5 years ago.. I love the content from one Louisiana boy to another you have taught me a lot.. I'm a retired welder if u need any welding get it to me I'll do it for free..
I ride my LD100 to work everyday and its 20miles each way. I full throttle it off and on the intier way. I mix 20to1 and 26inch wheels with 44tooth sprocket and i dont have any isues like you did here. I was just thinking maybe it the 20 to 1 mix and i broke my motor in good before i ever really beat on it. Nock on wood nothing to crazy yet. But i just wanted to share that and not all motors will have that problem i guess and i run a aftermarket exhaust also. Love your videos
Those gemini rims make the bike look 110% spot on
Will Kidd did amazing work! And thank you :)
Can’t wait to make one myself
Nice video great too know whats happing in the motor on long runs because thats what i want to do i am thinking to change the head to water cool and put a small radiator maybe it will keep-it cool on long runs just thinking thank you for your in put ..
Mr la hover what’s up with the stresses well explain but he is in title to his opinions I totally understand your response and your right because I started on eBay kits and your channel to build my confidence with these 2 stroke motor as a mechanic before I have years of 4 stroke tech but no 2 stroke technology now instead of buying a phantom 85 for my birthday I would buy a case reed and a falcon cylinder piston and fread head cr machine huh and build me a go engine The Italian scooter jugs are not for everyone besides everyone don’t have a mini lade and drill press to make chainsaw jug on china dolls.still learning keep teaching
There are so many options and budgets in this hobby. I have yet to figure out why it can get so aggressive sometimes.
For the guys who race I get it, but for us who just build and ride... What's the point?
Stay safe out there builder :)
yea man Keep doing what you're doing f the haters I have 2 bikes now the simple 80ccs I enjoy your channel it helps alot
Hello Brother of Mine! Great Video!
That camera is impressive. Not sure how it magically floats like that, but I like it.
You have to be a genuinely nice person.
Seems to be running well, nice video! I really wonder if someone will make a water cooling kit for these motors. (special jug, head, radiator). Hope you get that piston problem fixed.
called an am6
Minarelli lc have a different stud displacement, but yes i’ve thinked of it. Minarelli vertical are sooooo much heating i’ve never seen that

Hi, your doing a great job. I know how to operate a front end loader. Had to load our own truck in the boonies.
What do you think about maybe doing a tire review? I've been riding my nel lusso build back and forth to work (about 7 miles) sporadically, and its eating the stock tires alive, I like to hear your opinion on the different options out there...
So I've been watching for a year now and I follow alot of the top end builders u have helped me with a few builds but I've had a gt90 case reed that I've rebuilt too many time just wondering wich head u would suggest going to I have been considering 2 options either I'm going back to a falcon 911 head or going big and getting a mxs scooter head and exhaust system mind u I have made several of these over the years and used to build and sell them now I've been leaning towards the mxs pro cylinder for one reason I have made the gt90 as a rece bike through and through
hi, on air cooled engines you should have the carb running just a bit richer so that the engine has more lubrication making it heat less, if the engine was liquid cooled the carburation you have on it is more than good!
Great point! I thought I had it a bit on the rich side, but it was probably not enough. Thanks for the tip!
@@LAHover I had four engines and I did various things to them, killing every one. Adjustable timing would help with high-rpm temp issues. An old two stroke racer told me that after I soft seized and then hard seized my best engine.
Bro I hear you and yea man I had to fall back from other pages cuz of stuff like this ,and yea man I am far from dumb or lazy but I dnt habe time all like that so for most part I rather just buy kits and slap em on and keep my slow sweet builds too .I like building things and learning about All i can and shit I definitely am
I've found that sticking with 16-20 to 1 aka break in oil ratios has seemed to help and its cheaper than a new motor
For these hybrids, that seems like it may be a good idea. thanks for the input!
I agree completely with you. I might not get my point across the same as you did or do but what you saying is just what I think. There's no reason that there shouldn't be a larger price on complete kit compared to buying all the parts separate. Let's be honest too if you build it yourself yes you can consider it "free labor" but once you start building three four or even more it cost time and if you don't think your labor is valuable then I guess you don't consider yourself valuable. I personally enjoy building these bikes/motors but it definitely takes away from other parts in my life, and to be fair if I had the money to spend I would definitely buy the kit so I can save the week of work it takes to actually sit and build the motor and rather invest that time I spent building as time spent enjoying my life or family. I hate when people talk smack about others like that it's just unnecessary to do imo. It doesn't help anyone and it definitely doesn't help the community. Anyway we'll said sir.
Nail it! Well said.
two stroke stuffing does the piston drop test showing correct piston to cylinder clearance , I am a true believer in 32 to 1 . I have not built a minarelli yet but have clearanced pistons on the yd 100’s and I believe they come way too tight.. Kevin takes a couple thousand s off the piston above the rings where most of the heat is…as per usual a great viseo thanx.
@@scottdavies3914 Got to love 2SS. The things he does are great. And good information about the piston drop! Thank you I forgot all about that. So many comments like this today with information and ideas you guys rock!
@junkyardmotorbike yea I love Kevin's shop too, he's a true good guy. No fluff just honest.
@@LAHover yea I have been watching 2ss for a couple years now and what he does is just so fun to watch and even though it's not our motors if you listen close it all has to do with it and will definitely help out in the long run. He has probably forgotten more then I know now or may ever know. Lol
thanks for the ride, bike looks awesome man!! Im all about supporting small buisness ,but not companies that talk to you like youre a idiot in their facebook group, if you ask any kind of newbie question,,,not all of us are professionals and were trying to learn!!
Work, sleep, ride, repeat! :) Thanks builder.
It's simple, if the price goes up it is due to the manufacturing process. I can throw together an engine for cheap, but likely a company that does that as their main thing has a better idea of how to build them.
i agree with you
I just got to the part you mentioned me. Lol got me laughing cause your like I'm going to get to it I promise. No worries brother I'm not stressing it, I know your busy. Thank you.
I'll shoot the tracking number to your email when it goes out.
I'm forcing myself to do it this Monday - Friday before it gets lost in the pile of parts again lmao... The only things I think you will need is gasket paper/ultra gray, g2 or OZ reed, and a exhaust.
I can't wait to see what you do with it, good luck!
P.S. I might have you covered on the reed, carb, and jets... If I can find them, enjoy :)
@@LAHover hey that's awesome I'm definitely looking forward to it but totally understand being busy so for reason rush and no worries. If you can help with the reeds and carb and all awesome if not your already doing a lot so really appreciate it. Thanks again!!
Whatever he doesn't get you bud let me know I can probably help except the exhaust this is Joey btw I know name change on here throws you off but I got parts like a flat reed plate I think and a pz intake adapter or vm20 intake adapter just let me know if I can make this happen any easier
Put a computer fan on or multiples to increase the cooling effect
I was thinking of trying this 😅
I’m trying to get the felt faker frame but I want to cut it down in order to give it a full suspension frame make it look like a dirtbike is what I’m trying to do
My tachometer has a temp gauge built in and the wire runs to the spark plug. I have the 49mm iron sleeve with window piston and all that stuff and mine usually runs around 270 but if I'm ripping for prolong time it gets to 300 degrees. But never has seized before
Can you post a link to the tach you use? Thanks!
LA rode the bike at 40mph for 40mins if 90° F 8000+ RPM
@@FreidPickles Wish they made an affordable tach, speedo,odometer, spark plug/head temp gauge for a reasonable price. I'd be happy with just a tach/temp gauge.
Just wondering can I put puch moped wheels on a (gas bike) ? Puch wheels look same as bike wheel and puch wheel have 2 spock one on each side and has drum brake built in the hub with a bike cable connected to the handlebar
The extra lubrication is not going to do anything for the heat issue. You need to have the pisons machined out of titanium which has a much higher heat tolerance. Titanium pistons are quite common for 2 stroke racing engines.
Thanks for the advise!
@@LAHover Quite welcome. I'd be very surprised if there wasn't a piston in the correct size already in Titanium. There's only so many bore sizes right :{)=
Titanium is so expensive , the problem is only that this piston is in aluminium.. With a forged one that would be lot better lol
I’m looking for a 2 stroke bike kit which one do you reccomend for my beach cruiser I was wanting a 80cc
Looks like the china cast cylinders bore is to tight. Hone the cylinder slightly bigger to give the piston more room to expand. Those cylinders are very hit or miss. A name brand cylinder does not have these issues.
Thanks for the tip!
What hubs and wheels, and the connection for the final drive sprocket? Any links?
Nice videos, im using my minarelli mostly in little roads and on trails and just full throttle it.. if you have an air leak on those motor, that’s impossible to ride, too much lean and too much power. Riding it rich as fuck keep this thing reliable but performance goes down. Thoses needs forged piston bc aluminium heat sooo fast.
Holy shit at 7 minutes that thing started revving up to the moon 😳
I would try Redline gokart racing oil to keep it from over heating .
That's great oil. I've seized my engine using amsoil synthetic 32:1 after ten minutes wide open, shaved head, ported, pipe, 32t sprocket. Jetted slightly lean I learned. These engines can only take so much even with the best oil.
u alllways replay where can ifind a used or same kit cheep an i have a seller all ready but i whant to no how hard is it to start to a norml kit an how hard was it to run u think whith out this upgraed clutch cuz i am thinking of geting one step down clitch than this
my head bolts are so loose i can see daylight thru the gasket, suprisingly it ran, and much quieter with this compression leak, i could feel specks of oils on my legs.
lol... Compression leak? Nah that's just my silencer ;)
I once had a bike run while the spark plug was in finger tight. Did not run well, but it got home :D
Rear bushing with speeds?
Hmmm... drilling those holes in the piston seems like a great idea... I'm interested to see what the results will be...!!!!
Man I hope it works, it seems so simple. I will do my best to push the motor and see if it's helps.
In my experience it is a very bad idea. It's better to round the edges with fine grid sandpaper. Or, if you have a lathe you can put the piston on and, with a 1000 grid sandpaper, make the piston a little bit smaller
@junkyardmotorbike totally agree
I've been riding mine like this and seems to work good
have you tried colder plug and gaping experiments?
Putting a colder plug in it for the next video. The b6hs looks to be to hot (or I was too lean). going to try a b8hs.
How about using a steel piston ?
what do you think of octane boosters?..Stp for example..I've searched but there's really no info for motorized bikes
Octane boosters or any additive is pointless . Regular gas qoth good oil is all you need
First like, then play! :)
I like this vid
Thanks :)
Hey Mr LA lol are these engines really and what is the common defects on these motors? I'm looking to buying 1. Not building so I want to make sure there not like evert China doll.
Bro what I dnt get is how the chainsaw engines can hit crazy temps while working at a stand still but these engines can't with the wind blowing on em
If anyone is in the st Louis area I have a builder that sells complete 66/80cc bikes that are new motors on older good bicycles for $400 if you want the info. He uses loctite on everything and breaks in the motors on 16:1 fuel and they last a few years if cared for. In IL they are totally legal too
god teir rank 💯💯💯💯
I have a BT-80 with auto-start. my question is where can I find an exploded view of the centrifical clutch. I want to adjust it without losing all my oil.
I think it's a dry system. But I have never had one to test. I can't imagine the clutch system on these would have oil in them.
Either way I don't know where to find the information you are looking for sorry.
Good luck
@@LAHover I do believe it does have oil in it. The reason I think it does is because oil fill hole on the right side of the case, and it is a 2-stroke motor. I still have to fill my gas tank with an oil/fuel mixture. Do you know anyone who has one that I can ask?
In PA police department is asking for some kind of license its that true like they're required to drive a motorbike???
Under 50cc no, unless they changed the laws
What iron sleeve do I get for my seeutec and is it a high hole Piston cause my piston lock in the sleeve a tore the metal out of the inside of it
If you are sure it is a high hole piston, than this iron sleeve big bore kit will work.
It's a strong upgrade, just be sure to thoroughly clean the sleeve and ports.

Note: you will probably want to run a bit rich with this. And it's important to let the motor warm up for a few minutes b4 gunning the throttle.
Minareli cylinders are pretty cool tho they are designed for forced cooling. You'd be better off with a Peugeot 103, Derbi start 5, or Puch cylinder
I would spend the money on a new racing piston
Do you ever get a backfire on startup and if so do you know what would cause that?
I think excessively rich or lean can cause backfires but im not sure
Also ignition timing maybe not sure either
Only time I had a back fire was when my CDI/magneto had a bad connection with each other. I'm not saying that's the only thing it can be, just the only time it happened to me. Good luck builder!
Would any one be willing to trade a ported motor with rse reed windowed piston boost port 3rd transfer HP head runs good got a minarelli through a raffle so I'm in need of a 21mm oko or pwk and one of these pipes i can't afford them right now as I'm only 17 joined hobby from my uncle whom passed the pk80 is just after break in want to run this minarelli pretty stoked got money from my grandad put it on two numbers and won the raffle please let me know if we can work something out
Needs most likely bigger ring gap.
I wondering if some kind of air scoops funneling towards the cylinder would make a difference?
Same
The cylinder not being made entirely of iron and/or having way more fin surface area for cooling would be better. The cylinder was designed for a forced cooling application and set to cool under a specific amount of airflow volume.
Athena aluminum no heat seizes
Or mxs
@@brandonlauro That's good to know. I thought they were all iron.
Is that the 50 cc jog pipe??
Yup, just cut and re-welded the header to get the angle right.
They need to make steel piston or something this is way to long into these engines for no one to have came up with a good fix
Looks like bikelife is 2nd to comment ;p
If a business is talking crap about another business over pricing they probably are lacking in experience
I'm just curious if the scooter community has this same issue?
No not really . They have gears and can reduce the RPMs
Darcy, do you think maybe the longer 40mm stroke may also have something to do with why this issue happens more often on hybrid builds?
I know that scooter are forced air cool, but I never saw temperatures that were excessive.
My thoughts are that with the longer stroke, the piston moves faster at any giving RPM range (faster = more friction).
Also, the longer stroke may also be applying more force against the cylinder walls and causing hot spots.
Would love to get your input.
can you send me the link to that
Sure, what do you need a link to?
Everything that need to do with engine if can
I use hella oil on a long trip
I just ordered me a new athena minarelli cylinder
Oh nice! I have not looked into them much, but I hear good things :)
@@LAHover I've tried dlh ported imma test athena and compare
Athena or Airsal are both great options and do not have the seizing issues that cast cylinders do.
Iron horse. He does chain saw builds and all kinds of 2 stroke tips.
Bafoonery
If it seized it's just too tight and you might be a little thin on oil mix
280 is hot. I've had banshee 350 2 stroke 4wheelers all my life and 200 was hot I'd run it at about 175 180 in the dunes shouldn't really go over 200 at any point. Like I said been riding quads since I was 5 and only had 1 4 stroke same on those always under 200 . Yeah that's crazy hot in my opinion.
