DRIFT TRIKE CLUTCH VS CVT TORQUE CONVERTER. WHAT'S BETTER?

- Torque converter is much better for drift trike set up than clutch.
Here's a measurements description of this frame.
Two main pipes that makes up the frame is 65 inches long(165cm)
They were bent 130°degrees at 25 inch mark (64cm)
Foot rests or pegs are 20 inches long (50cm) and were bent 130° degrees at 7 inch(18cm) mark.
Seat support or seat rest pipes are 20 inches each(50cm) and they are bent 90° degrees at 4 inch(10cm) mark. Then they are welded together to form that type of form. Rear handle is made the same way but the length is up to you. Two ears or axle supports are 30 inches long(76cm) and are bent 130° degrees at 10 inch(26cm) mark on each side. All measurements are approximate and can be modified to fit the persons height and length during the build process.
Its not the clutch! Its the oil sensor! When you slide or take a severe banked turn it cuts the Predator engine off. Disconnect it!!
Yup
Man feels jealous of you son wish I could have such life such fun and excitement.
much improved,i need to build one of these because it reminds me of the big wheel i had as a kid

Well, our trike is not what I hoped. They say that if a trike can't do 360 then it's a dud. Our turd can do 180 but not 360. Maybe next build will be much better and slightly redesigned.
i saw one with a 125 cc engine mounted up front that was very cool. there are plenty of drift trike builds on here,perhaps there is something in the design
roger oconnor
I was planning on making a front mounted 125cc trike but saw other folks videos who already copied similar design from Colin Furze channel. They were getting lots of criticism for stealing his idea and design. Also manual shifter engine is another hurdle I tried to avoid. Fully automatic is the way to go on these drift trikes.
well i suppose there are only so many ways one can build them. i am sure you will figure something out
roger oconnor
I was pondering if I should make another one but with slightly different frame configuration and maybe 125cc engine or just move on to something else. We'll see.
Torque converter is the best for trike, good speed and trike is listening to you -not the other way. greetings from Poland
very nice. bike looks sharp to. great job. def the way to go.
On what planet is that title relevant? Other than the absence of a clutch or torque converter, or any comparison whatsoever between that mechanical CVT and any other drivetrain, nice video I guess.
very nice cool!!!Mr.Eugene as always on top you)))like

Он и внатуре был чмо но теперь всё встанет на свои места и будет всё хорошо.
хахахахахах я как то видел по городу у нас машина ехала а на заднем стекле написано Обама ЧМО!!!:)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))Блин сколько людей теперь без дома без денег и без родных пропадают по миру!
the earliest I've ever been
Fantastic frame design! Just one question, what's the length of the rear axle (physical length without wheels) and can you recommend where to go? I was inspired by your video and in the garage building one now! Thanks
One last question: Are you using tubing for your frame or solid rod? Thanks in advance.
Я думаю с центробежным сцеплением он веселее ехал,а как на самом деле? С вариатором лучше или с центробежным сцеплением от скутера?
What do I must install on a 2 wheel motorized bike ??? Torque converter or centrifugal clutch, help me please
GTA KING
I would install torque converter because you’ll go much faster. Good luck.
Where did you get the pinion for the torque converter? The pinion that goes to the axle sproket with the chain
Are you in NorCal? That area looks familiar. Looks like Natomas California.
if the axle sprocket was bigger it will have more torque and will take off quicker
l recently built a similar drift trike with a 30 series torque converter. I find that any time I spin around backwards and the wheels roll backwards, the chain pops off. I think this is because the clutch isn't releasing fast enough for the belt to slip. Have you had any similar problems and if so what did you due to fix it? I know I can adjust the springs on the torque converter but haven't tried yet.
peeps watch tv and think it's easy. but it's not. you have alote of practice under your belt. can see that. street looked closed. great place to drift

Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate it.
Gostaria de saber as medidas do seu Drift Trake!?
Valeuzão....
The best is my setup. Sequencial 6 speed with manual clutch :D
Antonio cachaço and who cares?
Nice, Just wondering if you have any Plans with numbers on it that aguy can buy and or get? from you for this drifter. I'm sure if a guy wanted to he could put an 125 with a 3 speed trans with that set up. thanks "Atkins Ohana"
yo i live in west sac i know where you are in the video. i have 2 yerf dogs we're trying to fix. We should hella meet up and drift together.
HI. I am building a drift trike with a torque converter as well. Can you tell me please, did you buy a special shaft for your driven pulley to allow the sprocket to be on the outside of the shaft, rather than between the plate, and the fixed sheave? I have tried to do the same with mine, and my fixed sheave rubs against the mounting plate once reassembled. Thank you! Awesome build by the way!!
Hi Chris L
I believe I’ve welded a washer on the flat end of the original 5/8 bolt that came with the torque converter and re-assembled everything without and additional washers. Also, bought a thin nut 🔩 and used loctite to hold everything in place. I hole it makes sense. Basically the whole thing was jerry-rigged. Good luck with your build.
@@balabay77 Ahhh, ok. Now when I watch the first part of this video, I can see that you used a much thinner nut. Still a little confused about where exactly you welded this washer. My understanding is this...it was welded in the non-threaded end of the bolt, basically replacing the "C" clip that keeps the driven shaft from sliding out?
Chris L
Bare with me and try to visualize it
Take that 5/8 bolt and stand it up vertically than take a rectangular piece of metal just long enough to prevent the bolt from passing through the bearings. Now your 5/8 bolt is vertical securely placed in vice. Take that rectangular piece and place it on the flat or butt end of that bolt also vertically and weld on both sides of that rectangular piece. What you end up with is a T shaped bolt and it doesn’t go through the bearings. Like I said before this whole setup was jerry rigged but it worked. C clamps won’t be strong enough to hold everything together. Hopefully that makes sense.
@@balabay77 Yes, it makes total sense. Thank you! That is what I had thought you had meant originally, but I wanted to make double sure. You know...measure twice, cut once kinda thing. I very much appreciate your time, and help. I will post a link for you with pics of my trike once it is completed.
Chris L
Looking forward to seeing your trike in action. Cheers
What motor i need for this trike
Who sells the CVT??
It was included with the torque converter? Or you had to buy it?
I've got a reduction box clutch, and i need the pinion for the shaft of it
Marc Roig Prunell
Yes everything was included in the set. You can find it here www.ebay.com/i/361364618504
Good luck.
Thanx:)
hats denn zum Differentialgetriebe nicht mehr gelangt?
Das ist zum driften gebaut, da ist absichtlich kein Diff drin.
@@jonasstahl9826 ach so, nun ist es mir klar. Danke.
Although I'm oblivious of fine detail and it doesn't need to be fast to drift
What are the dimension for the tires and rims
Zakary Hensche
They are 7.1-11.0-5 ( 7.1x11x5) you can find these tires and rims on EBay or I think on Amazon. Good luck.
You need to have a bigger rear sproket
What is the surface on rear tires???
pvc
WOWW!!
where can i find rear Gear to axis ??
Sean Binyamin
You can find it on eBay.
i try to find buy i don't know good english so its hard for me
I just purchased 1 of these. I noticed you got the sprocket on the outside of the converter, how are you able to do that?
Preston Stevenson
I’ve jerry-rigged the driven shaft by welding a small washer to the end of it. When inserting the bolt into the CVT plate, the washer would prevent it from going all the way through. Hope that helps.
@@balabay77 thanks. Do u still have the trike? If so can you send some close up pictures?
Preston Stevenson
Sorry buddy I’ve sold it long time ago. Didn’t take any pics of it. I’m pretty sure if you start building one, it will look much better than mine did. Good luck
@@balabay77 thanks
They make adjustable mounting plates now, you can slide the engine over and run the chain on the original, inside position.
A LOT better.
231flash
Indeed. I personally don't like clutches but I'm sure others would disagree.
Is this sac?
Spencer Watson
Yes sir it is indeed Sac. Good eye mate.
Where are you riding? There's no traffic what so ever?
That whole area was a new construction site so there weren’t as many cars on the road. Obviously it’s a bad idea to get in the way of traffic but if you can find safe areas to ride then it’s all good. We usually use google maps to find safe areas to ride mini bikes or go karts. Thanks for watching and commenting.
How much do you want for that???
Jayson Konik
I can sell you the frame for $250
balabay77 still for sale
theo pompa
Sorry buddy but I already sold the frame.
needs more speed
Adiel Cardona its cuz thoes tires get no traction
Well wich one is better?
FireAndGasoline
I believe torque converter is much better for drifting.
balabay77 Thanks. Watched both videos and i think the clutch would have done better if the axle sprocket was larger. The torque converter probably makes up for that being a cvt. I've been wanting to make a drift trike for a while now but with a twist.
FireAndGasoline
These trikes are overrated and not all what it's cracked up to be. Go karts are probably better. What type of trike build did you have in mind?
balabay77 Yea the twist.. FireAndGasoline style. There has to be that, you might get killed factor lol. Actually had some inspiration from a kids toy, but i dont want to give it away just yet.
Should turn off the music.
I made the same wheel to the ATV.
See my video # 012 Rings Of Drift
You can share my movie at home.

If the police see u drifting here is there any problem? Cause spain is the WORST place to ride trikes & karts..
Marc Roig Prunell
We usually find closed roads or construction sites to ride our toys. When Police saw us one time, they just told us to find another place to ride. Sorry to hear that Spain is strict about trikes and karts. Thanks for watching and commenting.
I believe if a big sprocket is on the engine and a small one is on the axle it'll be fast
Kade Spade
You're probably right but I haven't seen big sprockets specifically for engine/torque converter side. Axle sprockets on the other hand come in many different sizes. As always, thanks for watching our videos and commenting.
Your videos are very helpful and helps me realize that one day I could make things like you do
Kade Spade
I believe in you and there's no doubt that if you put your mind to it anything is achievable. Soon enough you'll be making your own fun toys LOL.
I'm early........maybe be first
it needs a bigger sprocket
Armando Carrillo
Will it make it go faster?
no but it will give it more torque which is what you need to drift
Armando Carrillo
I hear ya. Now with this 30 series CVT it's got plenty of torque. I do have 60 tooth sprocket but wanted to use smaller sprocket to show viewers that there are many ways to do this. Also, now that the belt is loose it doesn't stall the engine while rolling backwards. It's more forgiving at any speed and adjusts on its own.

your axle isn't even balanced....
What on earth do you mean?
It's obvious you've never built a trike because that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard!
