Registrace 20. 03. 2018
Working outdoors in my backyard doing DIY projects is what I enjoy the most. Too many projects and not enough time. I do venture indoors as well. I’ll tackle almost anything from masonry to carpentry, welding to...well like I said, just about anything. My motto is, I’ll either fix it or break it.
My venture into doing CZcams videos is new to me. Just another challenge, and while I’m not looking to become the latest CZcams sensation, I’m merely interested in documenting some of the projects I take on and putting them out there so I can share my DIY experiences.

Had so much fun putting this bike together. Simple setup and we had a great time out on the trails. This is a Massimo MB200 Warrior. Be sure and practice safe riding. Always were a helmet. This was a test drive under dry clear conditions on open trails and we never went over 20 mph.
Squirrels Are Cute But This Story Made Me Sad

We have many squirrels in our back yard and are a joy to watch. They are a bit of a pest to some people and can be destructive at times. However, we enjoy watching them run around foraging for food and being silly. This video shows that they are animals and they will protect what's theirs.

Good to know. Enjoy your new mini!!

Hey Cole, thanks for your comment! Others have pointed that out but I have responded to them as well, that address belongs to Massimo Motor Sports in Dallas, Texas.
I weigh 217 pounds would I be too much for the bike?
Nah, should be fine.
What is the little silver lever above the choke and to the right
They're on sale right now for $599 at Lowes for the black one! Leave me a comment on here if you get one at this sale price, thanks!
Thanks for the comment. I just bought one for $699 three weeks ago. Because of you, I went back and they gave me $100 back!
I'm really happy you got it back in Pakistan most ppl use android so find my doesn't work that good
@Tiktok World - Thank you. Have a great day!
Thanks for this! I might buy it
@Pro Bikes Thanks for watching and for your comment. Have a great day!
I just got this bike 'used' today and it's awesome. Since it's used, I really don't know what is considered to be normal or not. When I was a kid when I had my Mini Bikes and they have come a long way as far as size. First off it starts to vibrate at higher almost full throttle speeds. I am not sure if this is to be expected, but it does make me kind of concerned like something isn't quite right. Then I looked closer and the throttle is being held with a zip tie about 1" loop where it connects the cable to near the throttle body . Right under the gas tank so I cant really see what's going on...looks like they did a quick fix and didn't bother replacing a broken cable (that's assuming without getting in closer to see). Ohh and the chains were dry so I just sprayed WD-40 since that's the closest thing I have to an oil...I know it's not really considered oil, but until I get proper oil, I used it. The chains are still quite noisy...I know they were a little back in the day, but I only had a single chain direct to the clutch. Not the extra chain, nor the chain tensioner and spindle. It sounds like a spun bearing to be honest, but the engine sounds great and normal. Are the noises from all the chain stuff normal? Other than that, it's a cool bike and I hope my kids enjoy it as much as I do.
I don't have this one exactly but the Coleman version, and yeah they pretty much all vibrate at full throttle. They're basically just a lawnmower engine on a chain
@@sullivanshull9605 - You’re exactly right!
I'm thinking it would have been nice to hear the engine, rather than the music.
Coooll
Is it street legal in California?
As it comes from the dealer it’s not. Doesn’t have speedometer, turn signals, brake lights. Thanks for the question. Have a great day!
@@TheBackyardFox I have one with brake and turn signals, is that enough to put plates on it and use in the street?
@@user-oo5kz8zd9k - I’m not familiar with California laws unfortunately. You may need to check with your local DMV office. If your bike has all that then it would make sense that you just need to apply for your tags. Good luck!
@@TheBackyardFox Thank you for the information and your time!
@@user-oo5kz8zd9k - No problem, anytime!
Just won this at a raffle thanks for the video
Nice! 👏
@@TheBackyardFox when I ride it’s sometimes it makes a loud noise like chain stuck but it’s not. I turn off bike and turn back on and sound is gone. Bikes brand new any solutions
You said, it comes in a box? Umm yeah, why wouldn’t it, how do you think it’s going to come? Delivered on a truck assembled? Have u never ordered anything online before. Lol
Actually, it came inside a crate, inside a box. 😃
@@TheBackyardFox lol. I thought it odd it came in a metal frame. Full size bikes are transported in all wood, even the cross members are wood.
It looks like it's pretty slow, as in 10 mph.
@Tim Campbell - Actually max speed is 25mph. Not going to break any speed records on this little guy. Have a great day!
I keep trying to convince my dad to get me this for two years every Christmas so I will keep trying :(
Father knows best. But, doesn’t hurt to keep asking. Good luck!
@@TheBackyardFox I’m old enough to know how to work this and take care of it, that’s the problem he has is that he don’t know I can, he ain’t sayin no because of the safety lmao

A few months ago bought my daughter a doodle bug project she’s 8 I finished it and then a few days ago I picked up one of these as a project for me to ride along with her. Mine has a new 212 predator on it just needs cosmetics
I can’t wait for her to get tired of the doodle bug I’ll put a 212 on there for me but so far she loves it and all she wants to do is ride
Awesome! Enjoy the time with your daughter. They grow up so fast.
Unfortunately, I was not so lucky. The phone was turned off immediately so there was no tracking.
Sorry about your phone. I just got lucky the guy turned it on. Thanks for your comment. ✌🏻
Dude update to iOS 15! It allows you to track your phone while it’s off!
I just had my phone stolen out of my car. It was either stolen when I was pumping gas or a creepy neighbor stole it. One good thing is that they don't have the password and they can't do a damn thing with it now. Jokes on them!!! I don't care I'll buy another phone. Good you got your phone back, it was an Apple, they are expensive!
I almost bought one of these two years ago… now they’re $1,000… I don’t think they were more than $700 a couple years ago… do you remember how much you paid?
@beachy95 - Just over $700 including shipping.
@@TheBackyardFox dang, I should have bought one back then

On Sale for $599 right now at Lowes! ..for the black one. Leave a comment for me if you grabbed one for this sale price, thanks!
What year did you buy
I assumed that this bike is not allowed in the freeway, right ?
Correct, it’s not street legal. It’s for trail riding only.
@@TheBackyardFox Thank you!!
literally every dad "this for my daughter.......and for me too" lol
You’ve got that right! 😁
I just ordered one , its all for me. My last dirt bike was a Yamaha it460 but I'm 60 now so... PS Dude needs to sharpen that knife!
Hello, thank you for your video. I just started my mini bike for the first time and ran it for about 15 seconds. White smoke was coming from the black box under the seat while running. So I turned it off. Is this normal? I noticed in your video, it didn’t look like it was producing any smoke
Just making sure that you added oil as instructed. Make sure the gas valve is turned to the on position. Once it starts, turn off choke. If you still get smoke let it run a couple minutes and it should start idling normally and the white smoke should clear. Good luck!
@@TheBackyardFox thank you so much for your answers! It fixed all my issues and I really appreciate your time. Thank you! You’re the best!
@@taijacmonkey- Glad to help. Thanks for your comment. 👍
Where did you get the pieces to attach the handle bars to the bike? My mini bike didn’t come with those :(
@taijacmonkey - If I’m not mistaken they were inside the storage compartment that looks like a gas tank. Good luck and have a great day!
Thank you! I found them and was able to assemble it.
@@taijacmonkey - Awesome! 👍
Rolling dirty, like a gangasta at the end!
thanks for the video! It says 25MPH and the gas tank holds about .93 gallon fuel. How much of the actual mileage did it give it to you? Does it have any indicator of when the gas is about to be done?
@Vikram Tiwari - It’s difficult to estimate the miles per gallon. It does not have a fuel gauge or odometer. I top off the gas tank every time I take it out. Thanks for your question and sorry I couldn’t give you an answer. Have a great day!
Idiot press charges
His wife dropped it(& I guess, left the scene?). So it's theft by finding at most. He did the decent thing by letting it go.
I put a up grade muffler. On. Works way better. Don’t bother with up grade air filter if your riding in the woods.
@Bigfoot270 - Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate your advice on the muffler. 👍
What specific engine oil is the best for high performance?
SAE 10W-30 for 4 stroke engines is what manufacturer recommends.
@@TheBackyardFox I could swore my manual says 15w40 but I do live in a climate that reaches to below zero.
@@xaviermccloud4586 - Actually you are correct. 10W-30 will be fine in cold weather but 10W-50 would be best under extreme cold weather. 👍
All thanks to Lord hacker 🔘 via Instagram for helping me to recover my moms stolen phone you are always the best Lord hacker 🔘 via IG
are those fenders plastic!!!??
@lilchyt - Yes, they are plastic. Thanks for your question!
@@TheBackyardFox that’s why they looked like to me, i will most likely make metal ones and p to them on sense i do wheelies i don’t want the plastic to break,
@@replvenn3357 - That’s probably a good idea for your use is to go with metal. 👍
@@TheBackyardFox yeah thank you, how’s the bike holding up now, too speed ect
@@replvenn3357 - Still runs good. Haven’t had any problems with it. Keeping my fingers crossed. 😀
what oil does it take?
also, im sure it does but will it take standard gas?
@Jwacc c - Takes SAE 10W-30 for 4 strokes engines. Runs on regular unleaded gasoline. Thanks for your question!
@@TheBackyardFox no problem, thank you for the response
Olive oil
@@TheBackyardFox thanks for the video! So It doesn’t run on the 4 cylinder gasoline? I saw 4 cyl gas when I went to go buy the oil and purchased that instead of regular unleaded. Do you know?
There’s another tool bag holding the camera
Huh?
That's pretty neat! I built a mini-bike from scratch. Probably has half the features of this and I bet mine cost 2x as much! It's amazing how expensive it is to build stuff like this even if you have all the welding tools and machining tools. I did it for the fun of it of course.
@Paul Haines - I think it’s great you have the skillset to build your own! Thanks for your comment, have a great day!
Yo my name is Massimo
@Massimo - How cool is that. They named a mini bike after you!! 😀
How much was it
@MR GHOST - Just under $800, delivery included.
Do you think a fit for a 13 year old
@@mirskii8066 - I think so. Only thing is that the manufacturer recommends the bike for 16 yr olds and over. So 🤷🏻♂️
Your video was nicely done and quite informative.
@Todd W. Meyer - Thank you for watching Todd. Have a great day!

Would the bike go 20mph if you weigh 167 pounds?
Yes. It’s rated to carry up to 200 pounds.
You don't have a funnel, 😆, really bruh?
One of these day I’ll buy one. 😀
