  • This is a first start, walk around, and top speed run of my new 6.5hp 196cc Baja Warrior Mini Bike.
    My 5 year old Mini Baja is getting really beat and is in rough shape so I thought it was time to retire it and get a new on. Decided to get the baja warrior this time because I like the look of it a bit more.
    I'll keep the other one functional as long as I can but it's going to be mostly a parts bike now. The first thing I'm going to steal from it is the torque converter and just give it the stock centrifugal clutch gear reduction system from the new Baja.

    i remember as a kid and racing minibikes at the Saddleback Motorcycle Park in Santiago Canyon, Southern California. I was sponsored and raced for " The Hawk " Racing Team. I rode a modified Zebra Mini Bike, with a 6 horse Techumshe motor punched out with a mikuni 26 carburetor running nitro methane using a torque convertor putting 12 horse to the rear wheel. I was clocked at speeds in access of 60 to 70 miles per hour. Those were the day's.

    Had one of these with Honda 8 hp motor, sounded like a Harley. lol ,it was fun and a bit scary. when clutch kicked in sometimes it would pop a wheelie.

    Awesome. My cousin had one that we used to ride when we were about twelve. Loved that thing!

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    @dailee3 hmm not sure... gas on and flowing, choke on, kill switch in right position? oil full, gas full and fresh? spark plug connected properly and working? Engine not flooded? Try spraying some quick start into the air intake and seeing if the engine even attempts to start after that?

  • @MarcelsWorkshop

    @braidraid Thanks! Glad you like em!! =-) More to come this summer hopefully!

    I got one of these and it is insane. My dad bought it for me when I was 12. I almost never rode it. It got all gunked up and ran like shit.
    I recently bought a yamaha ttr 125 and my lil bro wanted to try to get the warrior running and we had done some previous work trying to fix it so we kinda messed up the idling or something but after a bit of messing with it we adjusted the spring so you hold down the brake when you start it and let go of the brake and it just goes until you switch it off. At max speed it goes about as fast as my ttr in like 3rd gear but it is very unsafe so my brother won't be riding it until we can get it fixed properly.
    For now it is a little fun machine for me and my friend to ride up and down the street together.
    I think it is worth the money especially if you take care of it (unlike I did)

  • @MarcelsWorkshop

    I'm not sure, you might be able to find them online somewhere if you do some searching?

  • @hotrodsho101
    @hotrodsho101 Před 11 lety

    Alright awesome! Thanks marcel! But just 2 more easy questions...well I hope their easy. But whenever I speed up my baja like 3/4 of the way on the throttle the baja wants to slow down idk what it is, might it be the governor or their designed like that? But I might have to clean the carb out too, there might be some junk in it.

  • @SpiritsoftheWolf
    @SpiritsoftheWolf Před 10 lety +8

    you can make them road legal, add brake and tail lights, turn signals, and horn, upgrade the alternator to a 12 volts instead of 6 volts, you could change the front rim with a back rim for an additional front brake, and then it's street legal

  • @MarcelsWorkshop

    Same thing happened on my old one, I just ignored it and was going to wait until the brakes stopped working before replacing them, that never happened. They've been squeaking for years but it still stops fine. :P

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 11 lety +1

    No problem! Awesome! :) I have seen the mb200's at the store every now and then, I've just never took one apart or looked closely at it. :P

  • @MarcelsWorkshop

    @Emmonach It can. Just depends on what you do to it, how hard you are on it and how well you take care of it.

  • @bobchessy
    @bobchessy Před 13 lety

    great video. i made a pipe out of scrap metal and a spray paint can then painted it with grill paint. now i need to save up for a torque converter! but my warrior is an '06 and the previous owner didnt take care of it and beat the crap out of it so i need to replace the rear tire and cables first...

  • @icecapmedia7506
    @icecapmedia7506 Před 10 lety +1

    Where can you get one of these nowadays? I've checked the Baja's website and the stores listed where you can apparently buy them no longer have them in stock.

    Nice baja!! but ive never saw a 2011 baja 200cc on youtube yet... like i have a 200 warrior, ive got a light switch and it actually says 200cc on it not 196cc. but would i be able to get a torque converter kit too? like mine goes 40 kph and i can beat all my friends, but im wondering if i can get a kit too?

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    @Mrtechsauce there's a wire coming out of the front of the engine that the light plugs into, that I guess is hooked up to a little generator inside the engine.

  • @fransolis94

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    @Emmonach Hmm that's totally up to you. If you plan on modding and customizing it then I'd say it is but If you just plan on keeping it stock then probably not. You could always see if you could find a cheap used one instead of buying new?

  • @hotrodsho101
    @hotrodsho101 Před 11 lety

    Second question, but whenever I go downhill and let off the throttle it sounds like the clutch chain or something around that area is rubbing, like when u went down the little hill coming towards the shed, errr, errr, errr. Something like that. Do you know what it might be?

  • @KingdomUploader
    @KingdomUploader Před 10 lety +1

    so do you get a regular motorcycle tag for these?

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 11 lety +4

    Thanks! I think the mb200's are still the same 196cc engine as all the rest, at least that's what the specs say on baja's site. They just seem to have a bit different look and a couple extra features. So if that is the case you should be able to get it to do about 54km/h if you were to completely bypass or remove the governor.

    is there any more mods that you can put on this to make it go faster that you haven't posted on your channel cuz i want mine to go faster without the use of a torque converter cuz i got no clue how to put it on it looks hard... lets say i did buy one of those torque things does it come with everything inside to get it installed to my bike and where can i buy a brand new one i live in canada

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    @TheRealUyi its probably because its just a cheap centrifugal clutch on the bike? those always tend to make a lot of noise when they are in their friction zone before they fully engage.

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety +2

    Yes they are good for mud and trails. The best tip I have is not to leave it stock and perhaps invest in a torque converter for it because that makes like a night and day difference.

    Depends if you plan on modding it or leaving it stock. Stock they are pretty boring but they get pretty fun once you start modding them.

  • @MarcelsWorkshop

    I have in my other videos of this bike. This was to show what you get from one right off the showroom floor.

  • @baileydonahue7314
    @baileydonahue7314 Před 11 lety

    i just bought one of these a week ago, i was really lucky becuz somebody returned theres to TSC and they knocked off more than 200$ but ya itsreally fun once i get enough money im gonna get a tourqe converter but i gotta get a new car before that :)

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 11 lety

    As for the torque converter you should be able to but I've seen a video where it shows that it has a threaded crankshaft rather then tapped. So you need to find a special lug nut to hold on the driver unit and grind down some of the key way on it.

  • @danielsheppard3390

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    hi can anyone help me i live in new york and i was wondering how much these take on oil and what kind should i use when chaging it. when i got the bike i got a bottle of baja oil and i put the whole bottle in. i wanted to know if that was bad or not please help thanks.

  • @AlexanderBeans
    @AlexanderBeans Před 12 lety

    And I've been looking, and I cannot see the price for these, damn websites so what is the website you ordered from?

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    Nice! Sounds like you got an actual brand name engine for it. If something were to break on mine I would probably just get another cheap Honda clone engine for it, like what they come with. The 6.5hp 196cc clones are usually around $89-$129 CAD depending on if they are on sale or not.

  • @devonwright9997
    @devonwright9997 Před 2 lety

    Trying to figure out if I can put a 301cc/8hp predator on my old 196cc baja without getting into a lot changing of parts and no fab work to frame

    • @MarcelsWorkshop
      @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 2 lety +1

      Can't help you there, I've never tried. If it physically fits, my guess is you would at least have to drill new mounting holes for the engine or weld up a new mounting plate. You might have to relocate the gas tank and muffler on the engine if it ends up being too big to fit. My guess would be the 8hp probably has a 1" shaft instead of 3/4" like the 6.5hp has, so you would have to get a new clutch. Lastly you would probably have to add or take off a couple links from the chain depending on where everything lines up with the bigger engine.

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    @AlexanderBeans No Idea, it's not something I've ever calculated or has ever concerned me lol. I think the Baja site used to say approx 30-50mpg for these on their specs page but it doesn't say any more so don't quote me on that. :P

  • @MrJJ1030

  • @Thecarguy1254
    @Thecarguy1254 Před 12 lety

    I have a mini baja from like 2005 (bought it used in 2009) and the original engine's head took a dump. These engines are a dime a dozen so I found a 206 cc engine for 180 bucks brand new. It has alot more torque now. I just wish I could afford a CVT for it!

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 13 lety

    @horsemania1 Thanks! =-) Hmm, Just keep checking kijiji and stuff, I'm sure a cheaper used one will turn up sooner or later. :-)

  • @jory11kehler
    @jory11kehler Před 12 lety

    Wow nice clear vid thumbs up

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 12 lety

    @CodieLee93 Ya in stock form it is pretty slow. It's because the engine is governed at 3600rpm and it is geared fairly low and only has the one gear. You can get it to about 31mph in about 5 min just by by passing the governor which brings the rpm up to around 5000rpm but that is hard on the engine for any sort of extended period. You could also remove the gear reduction system and go striaght from clutch to back sprocket and gain a lot of speed but you would loose lots of torque.

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 13 lety

    @bobchessy I guess thats pretty good then. Less then half price and the fixes seem like pretty easy fixes.

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 11 lety

    Hmm not sure what you are referring to "to do just that and be out nothing" to do what? They are really slow from the factory and in this video, so maybe you are referring to the video where I put a torque converter on this? If that's the case things like the torque converter not being aligned properly, under inflated tires, driving against the wind, and more weight could be bringing down the speed?

  • @MrRagingbull480
    @MrRagingbull480 Před 9 lety +18

    Take the extra gear sprocket off and run a straight one piece chain if you want speed. You will lose torque but the bike will do an easy 50 mph

    • @owenbeers2630
      @owenbeers2630 Před 8 lety +2

      Or, you can get a torque converter. My mini Baja has enough torque to pull a wheelie and go a little over 50mph. I'm only running a 7hp predator 212cc motor on mine.

  • @MarcelsWorkshop
    @MarcelsWorkshop  Před 13 lety

    @fransolis94 Thanks! =-) I don't know for sure if it can bacause theres no hills that steep around my house, but I would think with the stock clutch as long as you were moving a good speed before hitting the hill it would climb fine, but if you were to start on the hill from a dead stop the clutch might just slip. With a torque converter clutch it would prolly do fine though even from a complete stop.
