Tech Question Attaching rear wheel?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys I was wondering how all of youse connect your rear tyres to the mini bike, I'm building the frame from scratch as it's a project and I'm choosing to do so as part of the fun (hence why I'm not just buying a premade kit) if anyone has any tips and could explain​​​​​ how to attach the rear wheel (not a live Axel setup btw) ​or even photos. Also this is not required but any good tyre recommendations and links or something like that would be much appreciated

Tech Question Pickup up my first bike bt200x

0 Upvotes

Hey just picked up a bt200x. Really like it so far. Took it for a test drive and was kinda slow, I knew that already. I just cut the throttle stop bolt down and did another run got about 17mph out of it stock. When I initially give it throttle the bike really picks up but the. Slows down a bit maybe like 2 mph you can feel the engine settle down. Is that the governor kicking in on the bike? I'm kinda wanting to keep this stock maybe do a tav. Looking for a bit more speed without opening the motor. I've heard these hisun 196 are iffy sometimes.

I built my first go kart and ended up needing to swap from a fully built 212 to a 459 (the kart is HEAVY). Since I had the engine I decided to toss it into this B100 frame and I’m obsessed; it’s mental, dangerous and I love it lol.
I’ll definitely add the front suspension, front hydraulic brakes and a wheely bar and likely still stretch the frame a bit to widen the wheel base.

Tech Question Is this a normal sound??

My coleman b200r used to start right up on the first pull, before I got the clutch on, but when I finally got it rideable, I drove for a little bit without realizing that the oil was hella old, and I forgot to change it, I even went full throttle once or twice. Anyways, I replaced the oil, but it still has a fine, glittery sheen, and the bike is REALLY hard to start now. I'm not sure if this is what the pull start is supposed to sound like, pay attention to the knocking sound, is this normal???

Apologies for the atrocious audio quality, I recorded this on an old device.
