Best mini bike videos out there! I haven't bought a 224. I build mine from scratch with billet flywheel, billet rod, 160 head and I prefer nibbi 24, 26 or 28 carb. Your mods and trials are the best. Keep them coming!

i had the same problem with the thumb throttle on my 224cc i was going nuts thinking my carb was messed up but then i got a new throttle and it was idling like it was new, haven't heard anybody talk about it except you👍🏼

@josue5852 Ай бұрын

the 224s are monsters, have one on my go kart and it's a fairly mild build, high torque cam, 1.3 stamped steel ratio rockers, 14cc head, ported and polished and a few other things, in all it was around 450 bucks total and in short its 14.5:1 compression and runs on e85 and it gets the dingo to around 57 mph while having rooster tailing off road

@mlindsay527 Ай бұрын

Good comparison! Do you notice any more vibration with the 224? Can you compare a tight belt vs looser belt with the juggernaut when you get a chance?

I sure hope you try a CDI kit, it makes the engine sound OEM at idle because it's not on the verge of knocking, and the advance is actually good because it's not limited to let the engine idle.

@dabtech7456 Ай бұрын

Inside the thumb throttle there is a flat piece of metal you can Dremel out and get the full throttle . I personally don't like the thumb throttles but they are popular in my area

@dallasjames97 Ай бұрын

Mr Black 66 Sir. Can you test? What I see you doin is closing the case vent ability as the piston comes down it creates compression in the case if it is Very well vented it will make more power " allegedly " it will be easy and cheap to test I've heard 1/2 in. Hole is sufficient supposedly lol Again Thank You For All Your Hard Work and information

@Tyresong Ай бұрын

That's interesting about the thumb throttle on having the travel on the cable. I totally get why people like thumb throttles, as it allows for a better bar grip, but slows down the fingers & reduces the time available to apply the front brake gradually to get a decent amount of weight transfer before full front brake force is applied (look at me sounding like Yammie Noob lol) Sadly, my own 16hp 212cc has been collecting dust as I have transitioned to 17"wheels, 6 gears & able to ride in the Highway legally! But lets combine the two very relatable worlds, and put a 212 and custom swing arm in a scooter! lol

I just realized how crazy you actually are last night black. I just got a Coleman ct200u. And it went 20mph out of the box. I just zip tied the gov spring a little and it does 30mph now. You going 60+ on those other bikes with those big 19” tires is nuts. That’s rolllllling on them big tires. I have a mini that does 75mph. But not on them big ass balloons. Lol

@georgecypher4568 Ай бұрын

I would rather build it myself , cause you know what is done , how its done , and done to spec ..... so you know if something is not right you can fix it on the fly .. Like yopu had to do wit hthe Dremel for clearence ..... Other companies will cut costs on cheaper parts , and at least you know what you have . Unless someone does not have the know hopw to do it or the time and would perfer to buy it outright and just drop the engine on and POOF they are done .... Not me tho...I would always want to know ! Good build and video !

To my knowledge those pinnacle rods put piston very close to deck . With thin head gasket do you have piston to head concerns? 66 ft lbs 😁

@spuds7677 Ай бұрын

For me, I went with the Ducar 212, 275 cam, billet rod, 26# springs, .009 head gasket and a real 24mm Nibbi Carb. I used the PVL fly wheel that came on the ducar. So I saved that $120 or so. I run 65 mph with a Juggernaut on my Trailmaster Hurricane stock gears... I am super happy with the build and I have over 50 hours on this engine and it runs like a top. I plan to port the head next and maybe try a 26mm carb on it.

@NubsWithGuns Ай бұрын

The engine on my newest bike is a Ducar 224. No oil sensor, no governor. Also saved on a flywheel by using the cast aluminum one from EC. I might end up keeping it on there since I never intended to spin it close to the 8500 the flywheel is rated for. Did close to 40 as a stage 1 when it wasn't running right so far, just need to dial in the carb and I am about sold on changing the gearing. and it's been really wet here so I haven't bothered tweak the carb much yet just to have to do it again the next day lol.

I'm building a Predator 224 with pretty much the same guts as you used. Revs good and torquey engine. Now I have to tune my reamed out stock carb @ 400 foot elevation here. Really enjoy watching your videos. Does the Ghost use a hemi head?

@Deucealive75 Ай бұрын

Ghost uses a hemi head. I run a bored carb on my 224 and it works well. 38 main and 18 pilot. If I was turning more RPM I would get a slide carb.

@hellheart1993 Ай бұрын

I say they both our great motors I've always liked the predator 224 because it clean out an extra 10% cake and I never knew what it was and I like the ghost because the name is sick and the engine looks badass. Even though the ghost lost this race, in another class setting it's possible it could be the predator 224

I agree, they are both fun! That is all that really counts.

@Deucealive75 7 күн бұрын

224 and Ghost 212 crankshafts both have the same clone taper for the flywheel. It's the Predator 212 hemi and non hemi that have the unique crankshafts.

@NubsWithGuns Ай бұрын

My Ducar 224 has bigger valves, no oil sensor and no governor. I don't think everyone is aware of that engine much, the one catch is you need a flywheel but EC has one for $40. Not really anything wrong with a Predator, I love the hemi in my other bike. You should get one and tell us the real world difference haha.
