Im shocked Charles isn't uploading videos. He has a fan base. He should make that money.
Charles is the reason I watch this channel. He's a wholesome kid that doesn't come off as pretentious( sorry John).
Agreed
what is the name of Charles's CZcams channel?
We dont know what goes on in these fellas personal lives. Don't make assumptions about things you dont know. Chuck is a 30 year old adult. Im sure he weighed his options and made his own choices for his own reasons.
My guess is going for a home personal loan, the banks don't see being a "CZcams creator" as being a respectable source of income.
In the 70s we used to race VWs around the neighborhood. As we got older we graduated to V8 in muscle cars. Nothing compares to the fun we had rowing through the gears of the underpowered 4 cylinders. Those underpowered minibikes brought back found memories. Sometimes less is more!
Its to more to drive a slow car (or bike) fast, than a fast car (or bike) slow. You can't push a Ferrari or Vette or a Huyabusa to its limits, or yours, without dying. But you can beat a Trail 90 or VW like a dirty rug.
A Friday drop?!?!? Yessssss I miss the days of two videos a week. I know it’s hard but damn I miss it
Friday upload for you guys! Enjoy the episode, check out our new giveaway, and have a great weekend! WATCH OUT FOR SCAMMERS! We will contact the winner directly on the phone or by email from orders@cars-cameras.com.
Wanna see that opel gt get fixed
Do you guys want a drone camera man ? Have aerial chase footage.
New event, put together a stock mini bike and do a lap. fastest wins?!
Your kindness knows no bounds m'lord!!
what is the name of Charles's CZcams channel?
I’m almost finished building my first go kart. I worked up the courage to start from your videos, thanks guys!
Hey that's huge, congrats!
Awesome! Good for you!
"Group hospital trip!" - gotta love Charles' comments!!!
What I love about this channel the most is the friendship and comradery you three have. The bikes and builds are excellent, but it wouldn’t be nearly as fun without all of you together. Never take it for granted.
You know they're not mates ?
John is paying them to be there .
It's a business
@@peterherrington3300so If I pay my friend to help me with my youtube channel, just due to the monetary incentive alone, he's not my friend anymore? what kind of logic is that from down under?
@@peterherrington3300
@@peterherrington3300 I’ve been watching this channel since it’s 1st video. They are definitely friends who work together. It maybe jobs business but that doesn’t change anything.
@@peterherrington3300cap
"Lose the Shop". Love the reference.
Looks like my 1973 sears minibike I beat on as a kid. 50cents in gas and the happiest 12 yr old ever. Mowed every lawn I could.
Damn! Charles is is still here??? Good to see ya buddy!
Hilarious, Charles is in a T-shirt And John has every piece of protective gear you can purchase on while he rides a tiny little mini bike.
Good to see you three on the mini bikes again. Especially on a Friday.
I have found that I truly enjoy the working relationship between you gentlemen. I enjoy small engine building and my wife and I both appreciate that you guys don’t feel the need to drop an F bomb every fourth word out of you mouths. God bless you and stay safe.
Great To See Charles pop in ! Reminder: The SCAT Hovercraft was named that for a reason...Probably German.
And still got the front tread backward! On V tread, both tires point to the center, looking down from above. Unless the front wheel is driven. Then both tires are configured to pull. And if there is no brake on the front, it might not matter that much.
weeeeee a Friday episode of Cars and Cameras.
And I'm wearing my cammo cargo shorts today here in Livermore
Just power sports advertisement
Yalls abilty to enjoy those slow mini bikes is fantastic! I grew up on 80s race bike 2 strokes so its real hard for me to get excited hahahaha
You could make that frame so easily 🥱
Nice wake up to another vid. Great start to a Saturday
The very first episode I watched was when Isaac was trying to mount a starter on a riding mower to off road back in the driveway. I was like who are these people lol this is cool. It inspired me to build several off road mowers. I think it would be cool to see the three of you build your own race off road mower and compete on the course to see who's the fastest. Or more capable.
Wheeww ... almost missed the bus over here but i made it! nothing to fear everything is now ok 😮💨
...all rise...
Charles fridays?!?! We would all love it for a second video of the week!
I'm here don't panic guys I'm here
10-4, trying not to panic
@@NubsWithGuns it'll be fine
Always the governor coming along and spoiling the fun, 'til he's ousted and fun can commence... :P
Now that I could finally watch the entire video.
Nice one guys, I love seeing you just go out and ride together instead of one at a time.
I understand it isn't always possible but it's great to see you all have fun together.
I totally get that Go Powersports is a major sponsor, but all parts should fit without welding on new tabs. Maybe they accidently sent the wrong seat. Suggesting that one could order a different seat or weld on new tabs to fix a GPS problem is not good for the newbie.
BTW, thank you for your continued content.
Tell Charles
BUBBA shot the jukebox last night. Hahaha
Keep the content coming guys! My 3 big kids (5,5,3 yrs old) love watching everything you guys make Charles is definitely one of their favorites but you all add a little something! I bought them a go kart and a mini bike(CT100u) for their up coming birthday. I also bought my own mini bike BT200x. Rascal might be a good project for us!
My favorite episodes going back to c&c 1.0 are when you guys race together. SO much fun!!!
I’ve been watching you guys since the early days of being at your parents house and the Miata and the C10 truck long before it was ever completed. You guys make me happy every time I get that upload notification. Keep up the good work and keep the vids coming.
Miss charles in every video. But you know what i support all his christmas ornaments. He def gotta keep do that
Sounds like John has been watching some Grind Hard Plumbing with all the "PREMIUMS" he was dropping 😅!
Nice. I built one of these with a cam, billet flywheel, slide carb, header and no governor. The engine woke up quite a bit. Nowhere near the low end you can get out of a 212 or 224 but it was a lot of fun. Well over 40MPH too. it's long gone though; the bike has a 212 Tilly now and it's about to get a 236.
Wb Charles!!! You were missed! And don't worry, those hovercraft videos were horrible so you didn't miss much :) glad to see you back bud. You're the reason I watch this channel ahahah
This Old Man from Washington NC always enjoying your videos 👍. Love you Guys. 🛵🧔💝💝💝
I'm 46 and still love this stuff! Would like to see a full build on an old 5hp flat top Briggs
Charles may not have won but he's got hands down the best looking Mini Bike out there!! It's got the sweet paint job, sick baby ape hangers handlebars and proper gas tank.
TWO EPISODES IN 3 days?!?
i feel like a spoiled child🎉
"well in my day sonny it happened every week"
RIght before they changed things John was starting to look pretty worn out most of the time so I don't blame them at all.
Plus the production quality showed the extra time he could spend with editing on a lot of projects.
Now it's like a treat to get 2 so it's cool.
Guys when you fix that hovercraft, please take it out to Ikes Island
The seat should just bolt on and no welding should be expected because most people don't have a welder. Without the governor it was quick..The governor would be perfect for a beginner as well,so not a bad little bike really. Cool guys❤.
@CarsandCameras It would be Cool too see you build up that 98cc engine into 98cc Monster engine! With whatever parts that you guys can get your hands on for the 98cc engine. I would definitely build one!...
Try using spray on bedliner for the frame works great and easy to touch up
Cars and Cameras without Chuck is like a taco without cheese, or a Scone with no honey or a fancy home with no A/C!
I like it....seems like a great value compared to the thin wall Chinesium stuff out there. The 3hp performed about how I expected....Those tiny engines really benefit from a jackshaft setup. Looks to be plenty of room behind the engine to fab one up and play with reduction gearing for more acceleration off the line. All of my old DB30's with the original 97cc flattys were built that way and ran great, especially with the gov deleted. Nice job, boys! Ballin' on a budget!
Bro I have been waiting for them to get the rascal lite since It came out 🤞🤞
Great stuff guys thanks
I love my Little Rascal.
For $500 I'd still expect the seat to fit and no welding required
same lol. Ive heard that go power sports is a "ride or die" sponsor tho. They are probably trying to stay in their good graces.
@@AshleyOnYT Hey at least GPS comes out with new products made in house to make it easier for the beginner. Can't think of many other places that do that and none of them do it on the scale GPS does. Anyone with a brain knows how these bikes are, you act like $500 is big money, $500 gets you a coleman ct100, in other words a highly overpriced pos IMO. We all know how these mini bike parts sometimes require a little custom fit, its almost a given. be glad thats all you ran into, i'd say thats pretty good based on a lot of the fitment problems with other bikes.
@billwilliamson9842 I like go power sports. Just explaining why they might ignore some of the shortcomings. I personally use exclusively their mega moto 80s or motovoxs of fb marketplace.
Big fan of y'alls!!! Keep it up boys
Mini bike's are so much fun...
CHUCK!!
Cool little bike. Great job yins guys
I’m glad I waiting til today to watch the hovecraft episode, now I got two videos from y’all today!!
Did Charles scream noooo Monica! 😂
""MONICA!!!""🤣🤣
Nice minibike guys I'm trying to build out mine right now it's a mega moto with a predator 420
which mega moto?
@@AshleyOnYT mega moto 212 I stretched the frame to fit a battery and i welded a new rear axle/tire mount on rear to fit a slick wheel
@barbaranevins4979 Hell yea that's dope! I have a Motovox 80cc currently but my first new bike will definitely be their mega moto 80.
Great little bike if you are looking for something small I hear.
Hate to hear Issac had tweaker problems. I hope you guys have good security and camera's on the shop and property entrances. It's not too hard or expensive these days with bluetooth and such
Srars mini bike held its own, considering it is about 1hp lighter. Great fun guys
That was fun 👍☮️
That front ends a bit wobbly, steady Charles we're sad to see you go, but please go in one piece.
7:54 I think it would look cool if you would build a springer front end, and then use a double spring perch for the seat.
Nice budget friendly mine bike!
Thx
"MONICA!!!!!!!". Classic lol
I would like to see you guys offer a full sized small engine powered picnic table kit!!!
Found your channel randomly. When I heard the words Bosco beach, I had to sub. I'm in Wayne County. Definitely familiar with Little Washington. "Bill's Hotdogs."
I really like your channel but. I hope everything works out for Charles. Good luck in your endeavors Charles. I hope you will be back at the events. God bless you and your family
amazing video guys
Just ordered the maverick for my daughter. Thinking of ordering me one as well
Ill take a mini bike scented candle and a itll be fine sticker 👍🤙🏾
Nice little bike
You guys are awesome
Rascal build de ja vu times 5 though it was worth watching when Isaac realised he had the govonor in, classic###
The ape hanger handlebars do look cool as hell
Chrome dip
Great video
For Charles bike, when you get a new wheel, make sure the spacer between the two bearings is exactly the right length so the bearing clips seat at the same time the spacer makes contact with the inner race. Then make outer spacers that allow smooth straight operation of the forks. With the axle bolt tight, weld in a fitted fork stabilizer between the top of the lower fork tubes. This will keep the forks from working individually, and dramatically improve handling.
As for the new bike...100cc might be enough if it would turn 18,000 RPM but that would cost a fortune. Since there is so much room in that frame, *ADD* the CR500 engine, use the 100cc engine as a pony motor to start the 500 and this would solve all the worlds problems.
P.S. I'm thinking about getting one of those non-lethal bean bag sho_g_ns and hanging out on Ike's lot till his problem is solved. JK
You guys need your own video game
Classic Ike riding in the shop again. As for Charles bike 🚲 might have Ben a Oxey cutting torch made that hole lol 😅
I love your videos.
Yes Sir
I would love to see you all to get a kit each and race each other to build them
"Only 1 of the seat bolts line up", I would be impressed if fewer than 1 bolt lined up!
I belive browse bushings are porous and can be oil loaded up it light oil .
Put you thumb on one end fill with oil then put your outher thumb on the open end now squeeze oil should swet out of the sides of the bushing this extends bushing life significantly.
Don’t leave Chuck!!!!
U guys should find a way to pave a straight shot somewhere on your property. The longest possible straight line and it wouldn't need to be very wide. I'm sure you thought of that but that's my piece of mind
❤❤❤❤Good raceing boyz ❤❤❤❤
Probably used a blow torch to cut the hole outfit it was shot the metal would be stretched away from the direction the bullet came from which would probably keep engine from being able to mount flush
YOOOO I Forgot about CarsandCameras I feel like a kid again
The old one Charles is on seems to have a much higher top speed. Try changing the gearing for your twisty course.
If y’all are looking for another pair of hands I have lots of small engine/ minibike experience (my job right now is restoring vintage Rupp minibikes) and I’m looking to move soon, and NC is an option
Great video as usual. Any updates on the Triumph drag rail?
They gave up cos John was terrified of it
Sure would make a sweet little pitt bike..... 😊
i juste buy a t-shirt and a cap ,cant wait to receive it
Nice
Sad that we dont have things like these in belgium. Im probly going to be welding and making one my own.
Y'all should build a mini bike that's fun yet reasonable on price for people that r over 300lbs and for someone on a low income budget but that is like 45mph top speed. I think that would be awesome. I say that cuz to be honest there's lots of people like me who r unfortunately over 300lbs but can't afford something that's $1500 that will hold us and that we don't have to have a license for unfortunately.
i had a sears roper when i was a kid, and i want one SO BAD! even if it's just a frame, i wanna build one, but i cant find any near my home in the high plains
Put the bushings in the freezer and install them as cold as possible
DONE at 8:42, when it's clear this isn't a 'build video', it's about Money. Know you need it, but...
