- Please subscribe for more! Got this from Phatmoto.com and it's amazing. The bike feels great when cornering and off-roading with the 4" fat tires. The racks now makes it a lot easier for long travels since you can carry a cooler and other items. Please watch the entire video to learn more.

This is great for people who live within a 10 minute walk from where they work. I already own moped for summer driving but i really want this now. This would fit right in my apartment on the porch or in my living room if need be.
I have one its awesome
What about a 10 minute drive lol
If it’s a 10 minute walk a normal bike is more than enough
So you saying with a 10 min walk this would take a person 1 min bike ride ? I’m pretty sure if a person want they can ride this thing 30 minutes from work each way.
Hands down, I’d take this any day over a electric scooter! If an EMP hits then you’ll wish you had a gas engine.
If an emp hits how are ypu going to get gas?
@@lordtartarsauceb8348 you’ll have a full tank that will get you out of the city
@@thirdeyesurvivor3886 think it’ll ONLY happen in your city?
@@Illness.og. no, the whole United States
these things still have CDIs which are normally susceptible I think to a devastating EMP perhaps unless you add extra shielding or something
Thank you for the video! Very organized, easy to follow, and clear🙏
Excellent build quality on this bike.
Exhaust change to a pipe and silencer would add to the look and sound.
That seat like most bike seats is the 1st thing I'd change, I'm partial to big soft comfy saddle seats on my bikes, usually runs around $65 CDN.
What kinda speedo would you recommend along with lights.
Enjoyed your vids ty.
Outstanding. Mine arrives in two days
How do you like it so far? I'm considering getting one.
I really enjoyed building my 79cc gasbike kit that I put on my hyper cruiser
I'm considering getting one of these, they look to be very well-built. I wouldn't mind some sort of lightweight fenders.
Fenders for sure..
That’s awesome man. I want one now
I wish it had suspension tho.
Great vid!!! Its like going back in time I could see my grandpa riding this dreaming about a ninja lol
GREAT video, I really liked your safety boots! ha ha
Do they make any cool exhaust options or upgrades??
Im gettin this dude holy hell its nice💯
Build a 2 stroker
I think the dude is already married....
I put a 44 tooth on my rover and a 56 tooth on my all terrain. I also added an insulated cargo trailer to my rover. I now use it for door dash and Uber eats. I still can’t believe that they pay me to ride around and have fun.
Do you still use it for DoorDash? How does /did it go?
Could this build be jack shafted in your state? Using the derailer for transfer of power there would be no need to worry about how many teeth you had on the rear end. Not just a speed issue but wouldn’t being jack shafted help for when the bike really needed the extra power off-road?
Nice styling
How does it feel if you peddle and ride with the engine on--like using the motor as a pedal assist?
What's the top speed? & will u install a speedometer,
If they could put a cvt on there. It would be an awesome trail riding machine. Hopefully that clutch doesn't get overworked.
Nice motorized bike!!
Nice man i love it
Mark from Florida Here. Super cool
I just bought one I can't wait
MJTech, how do you adjust the speed limiter or bypass it?
There's a throttle limiter screw on the secondary throttle linkage. Loosen the screw, throttle opens more. It's a torx screw
do you know if the clearance between the top of the cylinder to the bottom of the gas tank more than the skinny tire version, i was wanting to put a 100cc from a jumping jack compactor or a 120 cc, but i think the skinny wheeled phat moto only has half inch clearence which might not be enough for that little bit bigger of a engine.
I have what I call the regular tire Phatmoto less space between valve cover and bottom of frame. I want to go maybe with a 212cc or 110 - 125cc ATV engine with 4 speed would definitely do the job putting around off road for me with gears makes all the difference.
very awesome my friend. thanks
should the choke be on while driving ? my friend has one and keeps driving it with the chole on...
Would the 212 fit on that frame with the jack shaft or would you have to remove the jack shaft
Use a 60 tooth rear sprocket and then the jackshaft will not even be needed. But keep the throttle stop screw turned in a bit, or you will end up doing over 60 mph...
Wow thanxs @gregsteele9002 for that needed info, cause I got ghoust predator for mine
Love it! I put a 79cc Predator on a trike that I built with a OCC schwinn chopper frame and a 20 inch adult trike rear end. 60 tooth rear and 11 front. She does 38 even.
What about up a hill does it maintain that speed? My 52v 1500w ebike does 38 or 40 on flats and 45 down hills. And 28-35 up hill.
@@Mishakol1290 thats pretty nice
@@Mishakol1290his rear sprocket helps with hills. Good amount of torque
How loud is it? They should add a kick start, stronger chains/belt, fenders, and exhaust pipe. Comparing this with Bolton ebikes foxbat it seems good because it's cheaper, but you can also get a cheap motorcycle like the CSC SG250 for less than $3000 shipped. Italika also has some really nice cheap motorcycles, but importing/registering them might be a nightmare (eg: SPTFIRE200)
Seems like people with credit cards and no common sense drive up the prices of these things, I would think all ebikes/gasbikes should be under $1000
I looked on the website but did not find fenders. Do you know whare to find front and rear fenders for the like you have here?
How tall are you? If you don't mind me asking. I'm 6.1" I'm curious if the bike is too small for me.
Nope you are just fine on the bike
First thing I would do is put a much bigger more comfortable seat on it !
Absolutely, and a hight quality suspension seatpost.
Can you put a 2strok engine on that frame?
Brotha please do some billet case 2 stroke updates im building a 119cc by ken hinson.
How much weight to the racks hold?
how much weight does the back rack handle?!)
For the rear rack my bike doesn't have those mounting holes to connect a rear rack
Does anyone know if you can get after Market fenders to put on these bikes?
...Can you get these off Ebay, and how much do they charge for one?
Also, is there a headlight you can put on it?
I believe you can get them on eBay, but they're about $100 more than on the website. They do sell lights and turn signals for these bikes.
I'd really like one of these, I'm kind of stuck between this and an electric scooter that goes a little faster for the same price. The only thing that concerns me about these is that all the reviews I see oh, a lot of people complain about the condition they receive them in. So finding someone who will ship it to you in good condition is a concern
I’ve recently gotten one and 3 of my friends have them too, they generally ship pretty well. Only issues with the bikes are either the spokes on the wheels (easy enough to replace them) or the transmission, which can take a bit of work, but a CVT works great with them.
Honestly if you in city and mainly for commuting. Get electric. Will be more reliable down the road. If you like gas power get you a grom.
Nice frame
How's the bike running after two years?
Love ur bike vids man👍👍
It's just perfect, for our 2nd great depression. I love it! They can make these quiet, and cleaner, but in California they want to ban small gas engines altogether. We could ride this to the bread line, when the electric goes down, but Newsome won't allow it.
Lol
Yes, exactly why I bought mine. When we can no longer afford gas to drive our cars, and the electric ones no longer work; we can still get around a little bit with some motor power - at least for a while. Of course you still have the thief problem, which will get worse with the engineered depression and food shortages.
But what function has pedals on motorized bike
Kindly question can we remove the paddle part and change to normal steel pipe to rest the leg so they can balance both like in normal motorcycle??
I’m getting me one. Badass
Can you buy the motor seperately to install on a standard bike frame?
Does it come with oil in the engine and to replace the oil does it need an oil filter
informative video for cycling
Is it a good commuter?
Nice bike
Do you still need lube with grease the clutch or does it already come grease up
Yes it is recommended
Hey I'm using a 44 tooth and it didn't really Didn't get more speed but does have slightly less torque is there anyway I can get a smaller sprocket for the Jack shaft so I can have more torque with the 44 tooth? Oh and thanks for answering me even though you're busy before
@@MJTechChannel You probably caught it already one of your side cover bolts missing!
It has an aluminum frame, thus it begs the question to how long it will last?!
Long time. They use thick aluminum for down tube and rear triangle also the head tube. I have 670 miles on my phatmoto. And then I have around 500 miles on my normal fat bike that is aluminum
you can refill this with gas?
Do you still like it and have you had any issues with it
Noticed this video is about 16 months old.
Any updates on the quality and reliability of it?
And how easy is it to ride with the engine off or does it need to be running?
I know man! I live in the boonies and need to upgrade from my 80cc 2 stroke to something more reliable! This is on my list tho but it would need to last at least 4 years.
As Im also planning to buy one, on their website they say they upgraded the jack shaft which was making problems on previous models, also the clutch is now a upgraded heavy duty one, but i cant guarantee the quality.
I bought the first year. Wasn't worth it. The frame was good quality, but the rest of the parts where cheap and rusted easy. Not sure about the newer models.
Can be ridden all day carrying camping gear? How far between fill-ups? Does it overheat on long climbs?
I've ridden mine 40 miles once on one day. It can run all day, its basically a generator or pressure washer motor. It does not climb hills well due to the clutch unless you pedal. Since I have a smaller rear gear I get higher speed but waste more fuel to get there. I have to fill it up every 70 miles or so,I don't run it completely empty because its never good being stranded. I have 670 miles on mine
@@kevinmontoya7318 Too bad it can't do hills, that's where the sadists put all the campgrounds...; ) My knees are getting too old for that.
I have one. It gets 150 mpg.but that depends on your weight .it will make your eyes water riding it.
@@pedantus All you have to do is put a larger sprocket on it and it will do hills a lot better.
@@kevinmontoya7318 what did you do to mod the rear gear? What speed can you get up to?
can u put motorcycle tires on this
Great look & well explaned, contnue, sharing motorized bikes & other topics, thanks, from panama, say hello loe.
What is the seat height on this bike?
What thing I want to ask now this is just a pull star or could you peddle it and started to please comment back thank you again for this video
This is only a pull start. You could replace the motor with one that has an electric start.
Pull start is real easy on Phatmoto, when pedaling it hard from a work out on bike when I want to take a break. I pull start my phat moto bike going down the road alot. It's not like starting a old non OHV= over head valve 4 stroke engine that yanks cord pull start cord out of your hand in those old compression relief engines that are hard to start. On any engine maintance and tune ups the engine will start easier and last longer!!!
In a bit worried and would like someone to help or maybe guide me in the right direction....
When I take of sometimes I hear and feel a loud knock like if someone hit something with a hammer. Its in the rotation area. Like where the string is to pull it to start. In there somewhere. MJTech would you know what that is.. I also hear like metal rubbing against each other. In worried that I got a faulty motor! Please someone help! Thank you all and God bless you guys.
Do you need a liscence for that beauty?
Got mine over night... got it today... haven't un boxed it yet..I got the green one
how much it cost?
@@Force1Com probably too much... I got mine for 1299..... they go for 1399 I think now at asking price.. can get them for 1299
@@Force1Com actually now I'm doing a return on it... came with flat front tire out of the box (damaged tube).. and further inspection... the rear wheel is assembled wrong and the gear teeth are up against the brake mechanism and chains are not right to where the wheel won't even spin... im returning it before I attempt to fix any thing and try to assemble it... no way...I don't even want it now
@@ItisMeMike Good luck on the return you want to sell it? Depending on where you live and the price, I'm looking for a second one. Must be a new color didn't know they come in green.
@@tomtee4442 I returned it with no issue.. sorry...I got the ecotric bison 🦬 e bike instead . With the return money
Riding with slippahs, love it 😆
Why put a those racks to block the flow of design
What type of bike is this like how would I find the frame of this bike cause it looks awsome
Phatmoto. You can't buy the frame alone
It’s a full kit. Comes complete.
wich engine is best 53cc 4 stroke or 49cc 4 stroke. pls tell me, I want to buy a engine kit for my bicycle.
plz answer me
I'd go with the 49cc due to the availability of parts. The 53cc has a bit more torque, but not enough to make much difference.
@@dmoore0079 I agree with with the comment above basically. I'm glad I went with the 80cc engine enough power to go up any hill on hard top and pedaling too. I've went up the steepest hill around on my phatmoto. Recently tried to go up very steep hill going to slow and couldn't. I was not use to that area or would of went faster, couldn't make it up the hill. So I went back down hill and went wide open pedaling then made it with ease up hill. I've also taken the Phatmoto up some of the steepest hills around. But disadvantage phatmoto won't off road like a ATV that has gears and just putting around.
Are those expensive?
Just received mine in and followed your instructions to assemble but couldn't get front tire on becuase the forks were bent had to bend them back to get front tire on but brakes dokt line up they are still pointed too much in , does the bike come out the box with the back brakes locked up like I can move the back tire i cant move becuase brakes are too tight and no way to give release I called the company but they said no returns and hung up I called better business bureau becuase sure they sent me a defect I seen all the assembly videos and mine was nothing like those its bent or shipping bent the bike up bad or they sold me a defect and wont give me a return I am so disappointed I cant even ride this thing that costs me 1200$
How fast is the top speed? Looks awesome.
It does 35mph approximately!
@@MJTechChannel I would put a manual clutch on it
@@catsbyondrepair it does have one?
What do these bikes sell for please comment back I am very very curious thank you for this video
900-1000 for the base Rover, 1300 for the all-terrain
Why use Google when you can use CZcams.
how many miles can last that bike ?
I was just going to search for one of these
I want to buy one but my thing is I am 5/11 is it to small for me.
I can't tell how loud it is... also is there a way to dampen the sound?
Less loud than a lawn mower thank god lol
inoffensive barrier abiding rumblings
Where can I buy the rear rack at
Is it street legal? I’m thinking of getting one. I have electric bike but I need this one because of range anxiety with e-bike.
It isn't street legal in most places because it exceeds the 49/50cc motor restrictions. Instead of asking CZcams, you should be asking your local DMV or check your state laws pertaining to motorized bicycles.
True but every thing is illegal even a pedal bike going to fast is illegal and can be given a ticket. I have a Phatmoto I always keep pedals turning, courteous, I wave and move off side walks for pedestrians coming. Don't want anyone to call the law for riding a motorized bicycle. I ride on trails, side walks away from traffic as much as possible, no riding or playing in traffic for me. I got my phatmoto at the beginning of January 2019 when they first came out. Also I put 49cc stickers on it. No police except one stopped me in another state he heard the engine on and I cut engine off when I saw the law. officer said I can have a bike with a engine. but not on and engine running in that state unless I wanted to register the bicycle. I was nice to the officer acted like I didn't know the law and rode on after his advice. A few blocks later tired from pedaling cut the engine back on and cruised but riding slow is the key! Just use common sense riding you will be ok. I was thinking about buying a electric bike glad I didn't when battery needs replacing battery is pretty expensive and will only last so long. 4stroke motorized bikes for the money will last longer, over all cheaper to repair - maintance cheaper in the long run and hold more value and will resale better than electric bikes!
@@tomtee4442 The bikes acting in an illegal manner are the douchebags that make all bikes look like douchebags. The same can be said with motorized bikes. It only takes one to ruin it for everyone. Where I live, the cops give us a common courtesy as long as we obey the traffic laws and aren't acting like obnoxious douchebags. The one that ruins it for us will blame everyone but himself.
I am trying to buy me one of those at this moment guide me in the direction where I can buy one of those that motor all-terrain fat tire bikes 7-speed
Frmr 4x Buell owner, so I love the gas in frame. Always wanted to build an add on conversion- they just made it better. Well done- Def getting one- 3yrs out of country in South America- back to TX and for biz around San Antonio- perfect. **But please, man- I know you only think it's a bike and even so, put on some shoes! Have any idea of what your toes would look like at 25mph across blacktop? Sigh, why do I care? *A.**
Please wear a helmet Brother. The got creamed on a motorized bicycle, by a drunk driver in a pickup truck, 7 years ago and I’m only alive today because it was my first time wearing my DOT approved helmet that my wife bought be for Christmas. Thanks for the video though, I’m thinking about picking one up myself. I really miss these little bikes. It’s a ton of fun!
Is gas better than a e bike ?
can i drive that bike on rain days ?

Frickin incredible 💯
... хочу себе такой-же!-, подскажи, где можно приобрести такой-же и по какой цене!!!
How can I assemble it
I love in California. Does this bike require a driver license? Or still considered a non commercial class bike?
I wouldn't worry about it.
Did you notice the label on the air filter for choke on/ off is reversed? I had trouble starting it, and I couldn’t get any power cause it was running with choke on! Found someone on a forum who discovered his was reversed. Also my throttle slips and decelerates abruptly so I have to use my left hand on the carb to keep accelerating. Finally, the bead on the tire is totally messed up and I can’t get it seated correctly. So far it’s been a big expensive frustration. Your videos are helpful though.
Yes I did. I also pointed this out on my 1st gen Phatmoto video
If your throttle snaps shut abruptly try and experiment with the return spring, find one the isn't as strong.
Russ - which forum?
@@jritchie70 the phatmoto forum?
I have one, its bigger than you think, its actually more of a motorcycle.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Are they street legal
@@Astralpilot2.0 of course. Just say its a 49cc motor if you get pulled over. Also since it has cranks its considered a bicycle or a motorized bicycle.
How many miles to 1 tank of gas?
I always pedal bike if engine is off or on. With engine off alot going slow putting around. I average 140 - 170 miles to the gallon excellent gas mileage. Gas tank is less than a gallon .70
5:15 OMG. This is a dream. 😯🔝
9:30 On these situations is it confortable?
How many kilometers does it make with 1L of gasoline?
I can't seem to find an oil change interval for this....
Every 3 months even if you haven't ridden it, oil is a desiccant which means it attracts moisture so even if it's sitting its still accumulating moisture, which is bad for the internals
As a rule of thumb for me on gasoline engines and to last longer change oil when it gets dark. It's less than one quart. Four stroke engines will usually last a lifetime if you take care of them. I also have a small camping portable generator I bought New in 1995 still running strong!
Also on a technical note if a gasoline engine in anything is running poorly from running rich or lack of spark. Tune ups need to be done way more often until engine is running good and clean again. A poorly running gasoline engine will let gasoline pass by the rings and into the oil and also affecting spark plug life this a poorly running engine causes more wear and fuel mileage
hello. why does my bike bounce up and down when on pavement?
Tire pressure might be low...
The tires are not seated right. See videos on how to set the bead of a tire.I have same problem
You got to deflate the tires and use a brush with soapy water all around the rim and inflate back up quick with that particular wheel on the air to help it snap into place correctly, that'll make it seat true and feel a lot smoother at speed.
