Glad to see someone else uses CAD (Cardboard Assisted Design) for making metal monstrosities.

Ugly?? That clutch linkage is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen lol

BTW that is not UGLY, it is CHARACTER. Well done.

What makes builds like this death traps is lack of good breaks . Something to think about before adding more power. Speed is fun but stopping when you need to is priceless. ; )

I have one of those tecumseh 2-strokes. build an expansion pipe for it (there's software to calculate the size and give you 2d templates for the steel) and bolt up a carb from a bigger tecumseh 4-stroke (HM-80 or similar.) an expansion pipe and larger diameter carb REALLY wakes it up once you get the jetting right.

It's sketchy, ugly, dirty and slow. I fucking love it.

it needs an expansion chamber on it those little tecumseh engines can rip if you take it apart and port it and fine tune port timing

This bike actually reminds me of the first motorcycles 👍👍👍

this guy is a mechanical genius

The clutch /lawnmower trans is fantastic! Much better than the usual centrifugal clutch system!

🔥🤟 Your video was on point lol

I really like the footwear. Great for welding.

Cool build dude next time you use a two stroke they will run in either direction the starter is the only deciding factor 👍🏻✌️🇺🇸

you do good work what ever you do.so it was the carb that kept it from running. I love the old two stroke engines. Cant beat the sound.

Loved the audio of the shifting.. rev it up, pause, (shift) then begin the rev climb again.. just like the old 2 cycle motor bikes of yesteryear..

Damn the Tecumseh has a huge flywheel!

That thing is so rad 😎really brings me back to when I built machines like that🚲💨💨 I still have a few I should break them out and get em up and running again 👍keep it up your videos are awesome 😎🤘🏻🤘🏻🚗💨💨💨💨💨💨

I was half expecting for some bloooper of the bike falling off of the rack as you drove off. Great commentary.

I love your sense of humor dude

Оливер ты удивляеш своим мастерством молодец.

I remember the first time you built that bike, great to see you still having fun with it, and a big"Hey to you in Oregon"

Love all your videos, but this one was probably the most entertaining ive seen yet.

Awesome video 👍😁👍♥️

The bike would be perfect in a steampunk movie.

Dear Oliver, thank you! So I see the mood of the narrative has a changed a bit, and I appreciate it. Great build and it was a lot of fun watching and hearing you. I got the alphabet and the Ryobi, unfortunately no Kimster this time. Oh well, I will hope for the next time. Sad to hear about your Scoliosis. Take care of yourself and I always looking forward to seeing you again! Be well, Sincerely Alicia.

I love it. Should have used the idler with the edger blade for added excitement!

I like your bike and your video editing but I love your comments as you build the bike.

I like the shifter! Good Idea!

Love this build. Always wanted to make a trike with a Peerless 3 speed axle and similar hook up to engine of choice.

Favorite part is the linkage for the belt pully. Im useing kinda the same set up on my 3 wheeled bike. You gave me an idea to help me with my project

Damn... Thats good engineering😂 I love this thing🔥👍

Love the Goldbergian design. Nice to see someone using this engine. I have one still in service and was pondering its utility for this application.

It's just the right amount of ugly. Love it.

Love it!!! Looks Mad Max Style!!!

Did he say 'Like your Mama?' lol... 🤘

Cool build!

Nice job. The little engine that did. Good thing you don't have to title it. It probably would have cost about $800.

I like that engineering Good job Oliver keep it up J. B.

Voice over is pretty great.

This is unique and awesome!

For such a small engine, that thing has a lot of power! My favorite part was the shifting lever. Very intuitive, but I would've gone with something more like a regular 3 speed riding law mower transmission, so part of the lever's function is to engage/disengage the clutch between gears. I also would've gone with a Honda GX-35 engine because it has the RPMs of a 2-stroke, the convenience and reliability of a 4-stroke, power and efficiency for it's size you might not find otherwise. It won't be good for off-roading, but I wouldn't put that much money and work into a bike I intend to put through that kind of hell, anyway. To top it off, I'd get metal mag wheels, compound tires and make 2 1.25 gallon gas tanks bridged with a brass tee, from oil bottles attached like panniers to the bike for increased range and low drag. I'd eventually like to add stabilizing wheels to the front and back, a backup 100W 12V pedal assist motor pulled from a scooter and modified (with 100W 12V solar panel on the top of a cargo trailer, charge controller and deep cycle gel cell marine battery in the trailer) for efficiency, reliability, better all-weather capability and low stress to the bike. I'd keep the pedals for legal reasons and added low profile pegs that can fold beside the crank arms, to replace the nuts that hold the crank arms on and to come out from the bottom bracket for a more balanced feel. Part of the reason my arthritis got so bad was because I just had my feet on the pedals, same position with my left foot in front of my right foot while not moving the pedals much while riding my last build. My lower spine was therefore canted which I didn't feel right away, I didn't even know I was developing a degenerative health condition at the time, but after a few 100 mile round trips with no suspension except in the seat, I guess that last trip was the proverbial "straw that broke..." MY back. That's right before I experienced the most debilitating pain in my life, was diagnosed with osteoarthritis. I was seeing a chiropractor weekly for months before I got back to a point I could function almost as well in my own life as I had before, just with a few extra inconveniences while waking up or sitting for more than about 15 minutes straight. I never want to go through so much pain again, so yeah, my next bike with engine will have better suspension and folding pegs regardless.

Awesome work man. Keep it up!

I love the builds builds brother, I need to gather up some parts and engines and do what you do, great channel. Real solid content and keeps getting better

Your video editing skills are improving each video, keep it up!

Thanks for all the carburetor help guys! Also check the description for parts info!

This thing is frickin awesome!! Great work brotha!!!

I feel like you put more work into the video on this one. Keep it up man these are a lot of fun.

Chasing them with a giant chainsaw 🤣🤣🤣 you got my subscription with that

Love your channel bro, you’re a very talented dude! dope humor too...lol 🤙🔥🤙🇨🇦

I hope you’re an engineer, if not, you should be. So cool

very very exciting moped y have there dude

Very Good. Great Job

Love how everything you do is pieced together like Frankenstein(s) monster. We did the same growing up. However we were inspired by Mad Max so everything we concocted looked like it would cause tetanus if you got scratched by it

Another awesome video. I would have to say that the transmission is dam cool.

Again another very entertaining video👍❤😎

well done OLIVER very good

Look out now getting all fancy with the voice overs lol great vid man you should do a motorized red wagon or a shopping cart kart

That commentary was great I enjoyed 10/10

Badass Bike!

Love the old Tecumseh tractor rearend. I'd always been looking for a way to put gears on a build and never thought to use a tractor rear end

Awesome job!!!!

Rwaa pep pep pep

Love the video keep them up

Very "steampunk" very cool.

Mad Max bike!

Started buying at B+H in 1975 till my Hassy became a door stop. Made me sick. All my studio strobe equipment went in the junk bin.😝. End of my Advertising career in 2009. Ha ha was watching a B+H photo ad on here!

Love your videos. I have a question I'm in the process of getting parts together to build a Mini bike from a Mongoose Fling (girls BMX). I plan on using a RYOBI 31cc 2 stroke engine. My plan is to use a Real Tree brand vacuum flask for my gas tank. Will the vacuum flask work?

THE TRANSMISSON FOR SURE

dude he got a freaking manual transmision f.. nice bro i would like my gasbike to have this

Лайк за ботинок рваный))) 😁 Молодец Оливер

I love this bike ❤️♥️ put 2 smaller fat tires and it will look like one of the motorcycle from Mad Max

Great job buddy! One RIDES a bike Not "DRIVES".😉👌👍✌

i am very inspired by that i going to make my own

Engine might seem a bit weedy due to the exhaust. Got to get that scavenge with the 2 smokes.

By all means, you need an expansion chamber. It would definitely wake up the engine. Nevertheless, keep up the good work!

with all that metal , call her the "sherman bike". But nice build non-the-less . KUDOS.

peace brother be safe

That is indeed an ugly bike, but your ingenuity and desire to tinker is inspiring.

3:10 starts whistling funkytown.

I have to know how long that took you to figure and build that linkage. Amazing how you can see things

Badass

How did you attach the rear sprocket to the wheel?

Put a second engine on it identical and make it a vtwin. Braaaaap.

Perfect build! Need more info on where to get the shoes. And do they come in white?

What kind of welder you use?

That's Fucking awesome man!

Have you try switch out sprockets to 32t that would give you more speed.

Yup ugly. I like the suicide shifter. I like how you recycle. Im new to the channel. Its impressive to see your style progress.

I put that same engine on a mini bike and put an expansion chamber on it thing sounds pretty sick and it's scoots

Maple and brown sugar 😋 Ya buddy!

That's cool brother I

Could you put up some of the unedited gopro footage of you going through the gears? Its kinda tough to really see or appreciate what it is that your doing in this vid. 😁

Ahaaa, you know my mamma :)

Fucking hell your channel is so underrated, definitely deserve a like!

Well shoot, I've been needin a contraption, how much?

4:35 😂😂😂😂

Not bad for Millennial i'm generation x pretty cool i hope you remove governor on that motor it would give better speed that way.

Uguitiful

3:47 No skipping ahead here. I like to soak it all in

I will buy one of those.
