In this video we bring back our Craigslist mini bikes for an epic comparison to truly answer the question of if you should remove the governor in your mini bike or not. To begin the video we did a preliminary drag race as well as a top speed run with both of the completely stock bikes, then after that we took them back to the garage in order to show you how to remove the governor as well as look for some ways to get some free power out of the harbor freight engine. After removing the governor, we put it back of the bike and re-did the tests, this time with it side by side the other orange bike so the true speed difference throughout the power band could be seen.
Thank you guys for watching and be sure to subscribe to see this mini bike transform into a c10 look alike!

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars FlyTheDub says:

    Sure, if you want to blow up the engine.

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gary Crandall says:

    This video was a waste of my time. You should have run them side by side.

    I went through a time where I was trying to figure out the same questions. How to have a carburetor to run under boost and a carburetor to run under atmospheric pressure. The whole solution of putting a carburetor in a can full of pressure works great but how to run without it. I finally came to the conclusion that it was much more complex than just figuring out how to run it with fuel injection. That was all on a old 1970 BMW motorcycle that I had a 1981 L engine in that was pretty trick. It put out about 100 horsepower unboosted but of course…

    I will tell you a secret If you lube up your chain that's another 3mph

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lesko Brandon says:

    Get rid of the centrifugal
    clutch in favor of a Torque converter….

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jimbo Wooley says:

    Take the jack shaft off and go straight chain

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sh*tShow4Days says:

    The dude definitely die in the beginning

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars S.P.O.C. says:

    They still got plastic

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mark B says:

    Don’t forget to upgrade the flywheel and billet rod too or else you will destroy your engine in a couple hours

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Patrick C. says:

    I must be favored by the small engine gods! I bent the throttle tab down, did the governor zip tie mod and put in a straight exhaust pipe. I get average 32 mph. And I'm short and fat af weighing about 225 lbs.

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stratton Winters says:

    what app is he using to get the mph on it?

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dillon Mann says:

    196cc??

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Shlushe 10 says:

    To everyone planning on governor removal, would highly advise getting a billet flywheel. Those stock flywheels do explode when ungoverned
