Nice job Clare! Simple and clear. This was helpful and honest. Good job.
Thank you Craig! I appreciate the support.
Just saw these for $599 at Costco, gunna purchase tomorrow. Thanks for the review !
Just bought one last month for checking the property and couldnt be happier. Easily gets around rough terrain and moves pretty quick with me on it. (The storage tank easily fits a .45 and a couple cans...). One thing that would be great though is a rack behind the seat.
how much do you weigh? im a pretty big guy and im considering this bike
@@sac3152 I'm 6'0 but only about 145 on a good day
@@scottp4077 I'm checking bikes out too. I'm 5'6" 240. Thinking I could get by on some like this.
Appreciate the review. Thank you!
Its amazing to me that a grown person has one of these looking so pristine and still in the stock/child toy configuration. These can do 50 mph w modification. Ive put a couple grand into mine.
What mods
@@elibeddor9957 cam, rod, roller rockers, flywheel, juggernaut, gov delete, slide carb, header, gearing
@@kelleyhaile4926 I got a air filter and a straight pipe but my air filter doesn't have the same size gas pipe or whatever but the straight pipe is amazing and sounds legit!

That's a sweet bike! Now I want to get one, great review and i love that big seat.
Thank you!! I say go get one!! haha

Lol! Nice job Claire, you nailed the excitement level perfectly. This is literally all my channel is about. Big fan of your adventures! I'm always on the hunt for one to modify. I put the fender on but cut it shorter and straight across so it looks custom, then put an led brake light on the back frame (they are like $10 for a rechargeable one that has a rubber strap to hold on). Then, where the reflector is put a nice Claire sticker on there. Always makes a fun, quick and easy video too. Maintenance videos are killing it too. I know you don't need guidance, I'm just a nut about minis!
Thank you! and great ideas. I plan on doing more soon as the weather gets warmer. I am curious as to how your fender looks now
@@clarekirste lol, this is a terrible video but this one has it done (this one is a short trim, just to reveal some tire but not a lot. I think I have another one.... czcams.com/video/nFlNAnbcMbQ/video.html .
@@clarekirste czcams.com/video/bwfLrn5o9Ps/video.html this one is a little more obvious, then again the gx160 bike doesn't hold back. Like ever....🙄.
@@fatbuddycat very cool! I like the way that looked
@@clarekirste Thanks! I try and have fun with it. I'm all about modifying these minis but keeping safety a priority. There's a lot of cool channels, Deaf Duck Racing is really cool. They are representing the race scene and their dedication to the community really well too.
Awesome clean review, well done!
Thank you Brian! I appreciate it
Thanks! Great and informative.
Thank you!!!
Thanks for the information 👍
Great review 👍 thank you so much
thank you Bo!
I just bought this mini bike. Great bike! i watched your video Clare right before i bought it. It was on a -$150 sale, so i had to choose if I wanted it, quick. I chose, and it is great. Easy to handle and turn, and easy to start. A good, big and reliable kickstand too
Great video Clare!!
Thank you Max! and that's awesome. I am very glad you like the bike and that the video helped. also glad you got the deal haha
Sweet stuff clare!
Thank you Joe!
bro this bikes are sick!!
Thanks for the vid I was looking all over for someone who knew what kinda oil this took
Thank you Gus! Glad it helped
Oh man that would be so cool to go minibike riding with my sisters
Damn, i was about to...for commuting. Looks fun tho, great review.
So no foot brake?
Would these be useful for sidewalks or stay on streets? I've got hilly terrain and all and I'm between a elec bike or one of these to buy
What is the altitude in your area if I may ask? Might have something to do with the 18 mph.
good job!
Nice Cabrio! This looks a lot like the Coleman trailbikes, but actually appears to have a front suspension.
I’m thinking of getting one, all I know is there’s some modifications to make it atleast 25-31 tops but im using it for personal fun lol
Yes I've heard that too! I plan on trying to modify it this summer
You should make sure to shut the gas off when you’re done riding. I left mine on and I went to check the oil and fuel poured out of the crankcase. It sat for a few months for the full tank of gas to empty out
Thank you so much for the tip, that's good to know!
The carburetor that came on the bike had a drain bolt on the bowl but did not have a bolt or any means to actually remove the bowl to clean tiny jets and other tiny components inside the carburetor. I basically had no choice but to toss the original carb in the garbage. It was just impossible to get access to the area that needed to be clean. But there is a vast and plentiful stock of carburetors to choose from on multiple websites with low prices. I choose one from Amazon came with the carb, fuel filters, air filter, spark plug fuel lines and all for under $20
dam not the font frender Geeeesh lol Good reveiw i want one for cruizing around my hood
Hi Clare. Thanks for the review. I'm an older guy considering one of these to put around in the hood of a golf cart community. It looks ideal in terms of speed, size etc. One thing I was curious about was the headlight brightness. We do ride at night from house to house. Not very far but would you consider the headlight bright enough to see where you're going? Thanks again.
the headlight isnt great! you may need to buy a light bar and a battery and hook it up
Try swapping the bulb for an LED one, there's usually a $20 option for motorcycles and they tend to be very bright compared to the original.
@@milo8425 Thank you.
Ur great Clair
Hi Claire. Great review. How does the light turn on? I flip the switch but nothing.
should turn on once you turn on the bike and hit the switch; make sure the wires are connected
About time a women did a review on something guys just don’t explain things clear lol nice video
thank you!!
I just got this bike used today and it's awesome. Since it's used. I really don't know what is considered normal or not since 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. It is quite noisy...I know they were 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 sound like a spun bearing to be honest but the engine sounds great and normal. Is the noises from all the chain stuff normal? Other than that I hope my kids enjoy it as much as I do.
What gas do I fill up with
@@Meme-pn7gs Ethonol Free gas for small engines
@@Meme-pn7gs look for a gas seller in your town that sells Ethanol Free gas
That is a very nice bike but I purchased the trailmaster mb200 which looks very close to the massimo it cost me $850 but with alot more options like front @ rear shocks,factory torque converter and disc brakes and will go 38mph without any upgrades.
yes I looked at that one too. Sounds like it's a nicer bike! I wanted to start at the ground level for my first bike, but it sounds like a great option
Could i get a link for your bike?
Hey was wondering if this will ship to California?
Thanks for the informative video! Do you know if the Coleman CTU200EX is better or similar to this bike? I’m debating on Massimo or Coleman. Thanks!
Not a good bike
@@knightsbikes1 which one is not a good bike?
The Coleman ctu200ex
I am not sure of the difference but this bike has been fun to ride around. it's not that intense tho
just wanted to ask how long does it last?
Hi just wondering how tall you are? I’m about 5’10 and around 200-220 pounds and am wondering if it will be too small or cramped for myself. Really great review!
I am 5'5'' and about 150. By younger brother is about your height, but probably 50 or so pounds lighter and he has a lot of fun. it's not very fast but good on trails
Thanks for making this review! I’m looking for something to play around on Colorado this summer and this looks perfect! How heavy is it? Could two people lift it into a truck bed?
You're welcome! thank you for watching! this is a great bike, and really good for beginners, if you're new to riding. it does weigh 152lbs without fuel in it. two people can get it in the back of a truck. one can get in the truck, while the other balances the front tire on the bed of the truck. then simultaneously lift it in together. obviously make sure the back door is down
Yeah Dallas a couple of people could lift it no problem. One person could lift it in a pinch. If you're in Colorado make sure you go to the Trout Creek riding area. The trailhead is right near Woodland Park. Best motorcycle riding I ever did was there. It's beautiful.
Take the governor out and put on a pipe exhaust and you will be going 35 to 45 easy but you will have to upgrade the oil to handle the higher RPMs
awesome!
Which oil is good?
Where is the tag attachment for tag and registration
I just quit my Slave job and and I hope this is worth what I been saving up these past couple months
I’m looking to get into some mini bikes and don’t know which one to get. I am looking at this one or the Coleman ct200u ex r. Any information helps!
I almost got the coleman CT200Ex instead of the Massimo but they seemed similar enough, and at the time the price was better on the Massimo
@@clarekirste I found a Coleman ct200u-ex that was returned because of bad wheel bearings. I got it for $250 and a set of bearings from Amazon for around $15. Also had to replace the bad Chinese spark plug with an NKG plug.
Did y'all take the throttle stop screw out 🤔
It will get to 25 when you loosen the throttle screw. That is what is stopping the throttle lever from getting all the way back.
Thank you Dean! good to know
18 M.P.H. is plenty fast for those one needs to be a really experienced rider
If He/she is gonna go 18 M.P.H. on those plus the riding position on those is pretty awkward for off road
Just cruise it and have fun on it untill you get bored with it
Very helpful good video very up to date! I’m 23 thinking about buying a Massimo do you think it’s worth tha $699 ?
I think it is! I mean it's not perfect, but it's a lot of fun and can handle a lot. I have heard that weight can be a problem and sometimes it doesn't ride well or as fast the heavier someone is
Alright thanks for answering my question 🤙
I’m definitely still gonna buy it I’m sold! Only weigh 175 so I’ll be fine plus I’m gonna add some kits to it to go Faster!
@@andyniklinski1392 awesome! sounds like a good idea
I know this is pull-start, but does this mini bike have any electronic ignition components?
no i don't believe so but I am not 100% sure
I have one of these minibikes. I hate the crummy brakes and even when I installed new brake shoes it just does not stop like a motorcycle should. This scooter is parked until I put hydraulic disc brakes on it. I ordered them from Go Powersports.
I'm with you John...the brakes are dangerously bad. I like the idea of the hydro disc brakes..i'll have to think about making some changes
these look really fun \m/ might save up for one \m/ $900 bucks here in New Mexico but i think it might be an updated version not sure 🐧🐧🐧🐧thank yous
Dude I just got one and I rode it for the first time Its FUN I definitely recommend getting it👍
@@Drc_details how much was yours? i might have2wait a month for Black Friday or Cyber Monday bcuz i might get an OLED nintendo switch this weekend \m/🐧🐧🐧😎🎃
@@marianel5848 Its was $800 with tax
Super helpful I was totally gonna get it on Amazon for a 150 dollars more
did you loosen the governor screw?
no I actually haven't made any modifications yet
i am guessing this is not meant for roads primarily as it doesn't seem to have turn signals or anything like that.
yeah not street legal unfortunately
Clare, do they sell these at tractor supply?
yes they do. more options online, but a lot of stores sell them in person. Calling ahead may be helpful.
@@clarekirste unfortunately I haven't seen any in stock at my local tractor supply hopefully they get them in stock soon!
Does it have enough power to climb over anything bigger than a curb?
Yes! took it to the desert and it was awesome
I have the Baja Warrior 200 and this bike is a carbon copy of the Baja Warrior.
How does it ride when you hit top speed? I can hit 25mph at the most but once it hits top speed it jerks around like somthings holding it back I know they all have a governor but I'm not sure if that's normal or just my bike lol also I bought mine used
I actually haven't been able to get it to top speed...I can only get it to about 18 mph..I was told removing the governor might help it go faster but I am not sure about the shaking..I haven't experienced that type of speed yet
@james Great! thank you for the tip
The "Governor" on these bikes is simply just a small black screw that can be adjusted to increase or decrease the desired amount of maximum throttle allowed. This is particularly useful when allowing younger and less experienced riders to operate the bike safely and unable to achieve higher speeds.. But if you are the only one riding it then just unscrew it all the way.
The uneven acceleration you described is most likely caused by inefficient air/fuel mixtures. I would suggest removing and cleaning the carburetor (if you never cleaned a carburetor before then it would be in your best interest to ask someone knowledgeable for assistance) also cleaning and replacing the air filter will improve the performance. Also try and keep in mind that these are in no way high performance engines and the delivery of the power band can vary wildly. There are things you can do to help improve the performance of the power band but tuning it to run with precise and predictable power delivery like you would see in a Dirt Bike is beyond this bikes ability
@@melloyellogsxr good to know!
From the tires to the handles I don’t think it’s 42 you need to start from the ground to the handles not from the front wheel
Did you take the governor off
not yet, but I've been told I should!
How does it do on hills ?
on the pavement there are no problems. I haven't tested any big hills on trails yet but it manages small to mid range hills on trails very well. Biggest issue is when it has rained or snowed and then its real slick
Please tell me ❤️💙🙏🏻 Do I need insurance and registration ⁉️ drive the bicycle
you don't need insurance but it is an OHRV and it needs to be registered and have tags
19" is the diameter of the tires.
Does it need to be registered with the DMV?
it is a OHRV and does need to be registered and have tags
I just bought this for my daughter's birthday, got it unboxed and put together.
For some reason the bike tire will not spin at all. No give, no spin, nothing. Is this something they did for shipping? How do I unlock this???
I am sorry to hear that but I didn't have that experience
I might get it😀
But thanks this helped me alot
I got one and I love it🥰😃
how long can you ride on tank of fuel?
I want to test this out and make another video
How long can u ride it on a full tank
Great question! I've read that it's about 12 miles per gallon, and the bike holds .82 gallons, so I'd say a little under 10 miles. It also depends on what kind of riding you're doing.
😆... I say it "moss-i-moe.... You know... The bad guy on young and the restless.... He also played Stefano dimara on days of our lives... I blame my grandma for me knowing this.... 😂😂😂😂😂
hahah that's great
Sleek headlamp! 🤣🤘🏽
hahaha oh my gosh i laughed out loud. thanks for the comment cuz 💕
Is this mini bike street legal? Or what do you have to do to be able to use it in the streets?
It is not street legal and you need to register it and tag it to ride on the trails but I never got my registered and i havent been caught yet
Wheee can I get gas for mine,mine is 196cc and I just got it
the gas at a gas station!
Massimo Mb200 Mini Bike vs Axis minibike ? Any thoughts?
My buddy has the axis minibike and i have the massimo, his bike has more top end i have more immediate torque & mine is a little more comfortable because of the rear suspension
I’m thinking about getting one their 700 at my tractor supply and lowes. How fast is it. Ok sorry I jumped the gun you just said the speed
This bike is currently $799.99 at my local tractor supply company. Should I wait until the price goes back down or should I just have fun?
if you have the coin to spare...go for it! I don't know where you live, but as the weather gets nicer it's a great thing to have around
@@clarekirste I did some more research and it turns out that this bike isn’t legal in New York State. I can only bring it on trails with a trailer and I don’t have access to any of those. Guess I’ll have to move lol
@@lucaweatherdude_6542 unfortunately that is the case here as well..I have a pickup truck so I am able to bring it to the trails..and sometimes I drive it around the neighborhood and hope I don't get caught haha
Lowe’s is selling a similar mini bike for $699!
The Axis!!
I have test driven several of them!
Feels like 25-35 plus top speed!
(Without governor tinkered with)
@@orlandojohnson5742 I wish this bike got that fast!
My last name is Handy as well I Literally thought no one else had that last name except for like five people
haha that's kinda crazy!
How do you get it to go faster than 25 miles per hour
I think if you remove the governor it can go faster but I am not 100% sure. Maybe I'll make another video and I'll try that
Do you need a license to drive it? I’m 13 living in california
no but you can't take it on the street
Can you put it into neutral?
No it's an automatic not a manual bike
I was seriously considering to buy one of these ones till I saw that lawnmower start system😂😂😂 that was unexpected and pretty disappointing lol
Hey dont knock it till you try it, these things are a lot of fun!
Can it take any brand of 15w40?
Yes!
@@clarekirste awesome! I just ordered one today because of you 😁🤙
I heard 10w-30 works too!
@@deprimentium9892 That's great!! Have fun out there
Do need to have a license for that ??
not that I know of but here in my home state it does need to be registered as a OHRV in order to use it on trails
I HAVE THE SAME CHOKE PROBLEM I THOUGHT I JUST SUCKED WITH MOTORCYCLES 😂
How fast do they go
probably about 18 mph. more fun to take them on the trails than just riding for speed
Does anyone know what MPG these get?
Like 60mpg
about 20mpg
What kind of gas goes in this?
regular gas from the gas station is fine
How is a 196cc only go 18-24mph
How do......
because it is basically a tank.@152lbs i have a super 73 that weighs 70lbs and hits 32mph. i stripped this mini bike down to the frame and will add lighter parts to get it to at least 120lbs
Are those street legal ?
sadly no
Does it need driver license ?
No it does not, but definitely check out your local and state laws regarding off highway recreational vehicles. I know for my state it needs to be registered and there are only certain roads and trails where it is legal even after being registered
check out your states fish and game!
How many miles do you get out of a full tank
I've read that it's about 12 miles per gallon, and the bike holds .82 gallons, so I'd say a little under 10 miles. It also depends on what kind of riding you're doing. I'm gonna try to make a video this summer that tests its gas millage out so stay tuned!
About 20mpg
I have one
Nice!!
Swap it with a predator motor and torque converter And it’ll do 30. Extra money, yes, more fun, absolutely
might as well add a 24mm Mikuni flatside Carb on a 212 ghost and go 45mph
Yoo I took off my back fender to 😂💀
haha no way!? well now we can say it's a trend
Love seeing women review these bikes. Sorry if I messed up any pronouns. I love mini bikes, etc. I’m getting one of these very soon.
