Moped Dick at Bonneville World Finals 2019 - 50cc Two Stroke Landspeed Bike

[Music] [Music] as you know I'm going to Bonneville I've just left for the airport it's I've been driving for an hour now it's around midnight plane leaves 7:45 in the morning but I'm driving electric and that's great for my daily commute not so great for longer trips like this certainly not when it's cold outside so so this is my first charging stop and there will be at least one more maybe - probably two second charge stop I'm in Oslo now we're thinking about names for a bike inspiration has been lacking moped dick ah the flying Norseman maybe not so bad my favorite so far is experimental test vehicle one ok I'm in the airport so first challenge of the trip is speaking public to the camera I wish I find kind of in Pleasants as of yet I I'd imagine that will change after this trip okay let's see if I can find my chicken and get checked in there made it through security so now my mission is to find a bar so apparently there's no serving of whiskey or run until one of bummer taste it with my first choice though better okay cleared security in Heathrow now it's self-defining my gates and I'm a bit late because or the plane was a bit late so I had a career so welcome to you on the wheel here's the crew hi I'm Jim Jim dan down so these are the guys who have put this whole thing together basically or Jim is the big looks quite sure what you call it the original driving force the spark for this ad and so I'm here finally it's been two days of flying almost and we're starting to get things out outside a camper here and ready to assemble the bike [Music] like his almost together and ready for a test start Dalton Jim are has gone out to pick up some food just admit I am struggling with talking to the camera in front of people so that will have to change now yes I will have to do that for the rest of the week that's why maybe it's a little bit strange now in the beginning okay I'll bring you back when it's sampled and ready for our first startup here in the United States so wish me luck thank you it starts we were struggling for a bit there with getting it to fire it turns out we needed to purge the engine more than we thought at first then it fire up sorry for not filming the start I forgot to turn on the camera again we're now trying to find a place where we can test it on the road bike is loaded on the truck and we're ready to start looking for a place to run it I spent about an hour assembling it when they restarted I believe at least half now oh it's in the evening and we started this morning so it took much more than an hour but it's ready and we're going to find a place to see if we can test it so we give them a short bit down the road here and we found a piece of road that's not in use at the moment because the refinery is closed it seems we have no fast permission it might be a stupid idea we'll see what happens it's not venture [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] a sterling finding out okay battery it's a Saturday morning I'm I'm on my way to the toilet and brush my teeth and we're heading to Wendover soon and over the small city next to the Bonneville Salt Flats and we're probably going to try some testing tried perform some testing on world air today see if the shorts do battery built and I'm going to see if if advancing the timing helps as I said mentioned in the last video 22 on the right eye [Music] that of water come Speedway Road so we just arrived at the salt flats now and as you can see the conditions aren't exactly ideal there's a lot of water it's been raining a lot even when we got there it was raining but hopefully it will dry up in this is Saturday and the race starts racing starts on Tuesday Tuesday Tuesday so there's a chance of this drying up hopefully hopefully Sunday and yesterday we got the news that the world finals is canceled for this year so now we have no purpose here at all we're actually going to try test the minutes right as it tries and testing of the bike maybe out on the salt if that's possible or on some roads here so and we're trying to get a hold of tech and maybe we can get the bike tickets for the next year's events so say hello to Travis he's joined us hello we're nothing yeah we're good times in the camper so we're currently making breakfast and it's kind of crowded here because somebody put a lot of bikes in here for some reason yeah so that's that's a bummer but we're making the best of it and next year we'll beat them all I'll try to be slower with my panning here now okay we're all crammed into Travis's van and we're heading out to the track to see if there are some people there from tech inspection preferably so that we can get it looked at and maybe try and running it we just got out here and you can see why they closed forecast it's it's a lot not for more now yesterday now it's the guys over there said that tech inspection should hear some time in Spain house so this stuff all this information here would come out of the rule book okay Matt so if it said a 50cc is correct yep okay so a gas 50 cc's AG 50 yeah so and then you would put the that classification in the engine displacement there's also codes that relate to those we can show you how to get the book and you'd put those here and it's important and now remember to ask the inspector right make sure because you know it's a rookie right you're just here for the first time you want to make sure that stuff gets filled out and then you'd fill this area and then at the end when we turn you loose you have to sign the release here and the inspectors in the side make sure that your injury not entry number and class designation on your number plates would be correct and then also if you have a driver's license with a motorcycle endorsement yeah do you have anything to do you have a need because my only driver's license is 450 cc so you just want to make sure you get you get you get going over 125 awesome it doesn't give you an se da WA yeah well on the front you have a pin through the hole yeah and the nut so I can't I can't turn it off but that can theoretically you can hold the nut and a bolt can turn out so we will have to do reveal and safety wire this side - yes yeah or or have a flat a stop on the flat here so we I installed a solenoid the post we weren't sure if you jump the m50 last yeah so there's a there's the fuel solenoid okay in this fire sheets yep alone or on the violet portion there okay and then metal snaps rubber fuel our little time purposely yeah taking the picture you stand beautifully and I gotta get Monday morning and we should have been in line for for entering the entering event and the tech inspection now but as its canceled we're not but we got a tech inspection in last night as you saw all some of the guys to do that and also pretty cool that yeah this is a tech inspection guy was a fan for my channel and I've been talking to my mail didn't realize it was here yeah so now I'm going to take a shower and we're probably leaving for Travis's place he has a shop permanent a lot of bikes and cool stuff so yeah this would be really cool [Music] [Applause] setting the road up there is hat [Applause] it's fast I just got a little taste of it there but game on this pipe yeah it's gonna fly like the nollie clerk she's grabbing so it's uh yeah but it's working anyway know who take some time to get it to get it up to engagement yeah it's gonna be so fast so fast that's really slow speed like almost fell over Oh serious drinking going on some serious drinking right oh yeah are you guys drinking before you do this check that out would you came all the way from Norway yep do some more you hear from Norway and this is from Norway yeah hold it in no way oh Jesus me what's gonna race this the event was going to start today but it's canceled it's because of yeah obvious reasons there's no soil turn this water or train what were you gonna race at this whole plant sir not me well you gonna race something else no no no that's beat records yeah race the 50 C same speed Oh these people they died out here Riesling aren't there yet yeah well I drowned today it's like a little scooter thing right yep yep a hundred miles an hour Wow the record is about 90 okay it produces quite a bit of power you I'm stuck with dirt yeah yeah a lot of guys that build super banshees oh yeah yeah power yeah yeah yeah yeah I thought there was a time that I thought when I first did this place to run this is an air-cooled engine and I couldn't keep it cool on the salt so when I decided to finally go liquid cooled by God okay those Banshee guys they've been doing this for a long time I'll just follow suit they're often left-field those guys are trying to - two strokes like four strokes to many wheels yeah so I went into that down that road and what yeah but but you're I've been wondering about this so you're running a tank Walter tank yeah I fill up this back section with water and ice the whole thing here yeah around so this is just a like itching transfer yeah they exchanged the chain that has just so this little pumpless cheap-looking function is circulating that it circulates through and it just comes back out circulates and the whole tank leaks and so it lasts about one run which is just fine but yeah so this plate heat exchanger every it's a two millimeter spacing yeah and every other one is either engine coolant or okay so it's there's a ton of cooling area I used to run to motocross radiators kind of the same thing where I saw a knitter lit up with water yeah you know so it wasn't it was still water to water exchange and that worked well and I set a record that year with that but then my buddy who's a plumber he came over one day and he's like why don't you use a plate heat exchanger what the is that I don't even know what you're talking about but it works so slick and how can I get rid of any breakers I don't have any room for a radiator exactly I was thinking about the radiator now and it's in such a tangle a ducting and probably with an edge to push it in the wind it drags all that stuff so yeah that would say no should and we need a tail section it's allowed with at 8:06 means anyway and yeah and I try to keep it on gasoline I try to keep it under what say 140 that by the time I'm done with my pass that doesn't work out that way all the time but if I thought everything right then it's 140 yeah if I can keep EG teased about 1290 1280 a happy that's a head yeah yeah I've seized out there so many times now that I've seized out there more than on his eyes that kind of my limit was like 1215 1250 cause I'm I know 1300 then it's starting to get really really toasted on this bike LLL go 12 9 12 9 as soon as I hit the hundred it seasons yeah exactly I mean if that's where it is exactly that's where you have to be it oh yes yeah there you have to and I've been through like looking at that timing light going oh I can do it I can jack up the trunk of course I love the hard stuff so yeah and this one goes with me everywhere I just throw out the back of the truck it always runs instead of the bodies yeah it's just a fun it never gets any love but it runs every time I pick it over so it's yeah it's tick tick great but I got this track bike yo this is my long-distance guy you know this is another Rd this has this is an RD 350 but it's not one of my land speed engines and oh it's actually like 424 oh yeah so it makes way too much power it's a little bit scary yeah there was never meant to have that much I don't know the first thing because I originally felt it with a 350 engine just when I was starting to play with you know two strokes and stuff so it's just learning how to port it came out okay and it made okay power and then I did this and the first thing I did is I came home and put that steering damper that was really cool yeah bull taco I did maybe two years ago that's cool too two sides yeah yeah well nobody paints like that always joining something that just with everybody I said lots of people fish around that's probably bikes $2.00 that's probably my favorite dish it's so so minimalist and yeah yeah I love fine this I was just gonna run in the harbour race this year and just ran out of time I guess racer up her eye and all it needs is got put the carburetors on pipes are hanging up I mean it's ready to go it just needs a little bit of time that's what I like my killer is always time that's never having that time anybody it's so busy building parts for people that trying to do my own these are Pistons in different states most of our murse I think scrap I think these two are backups for what's in there so they don't have the trapped ring but could you show me how you let me make those rings I was wondering to ask to machine those yeah I did so I just machined them yeah and these ones I had chrome-plated but I haven't had a chance to finish them and try them no I know how if I make a fixture to follow what I did is I I've made this fixture so I'm machine him and cut him off yeah and then I just break them yeah and then I put him on this fiction this I spent a bunch of time I had to make I don't know probably ten of these maybe not that many six of them yeah to get the size right then I just yeah goes up to 2100 degrees but I only get these up to about 1700 yeah so I put these in and I stack them all up and then of course there this one now his is set open yeah but you know really I've got a you know kind of press them on and then I just fire them up and then I just put a threaded rod in there and take it out in to quench it okay and then you have their harvest yeah and then I put them back in and anneal them that have like 500 degrees and I think today and they have pretty good tension like screw it around like the first yeah I got done with the Rings know if I still have them and I made them thick and they will have so much tension oh these aren't any good so I remade it all so they have a less less tension yeah less tension I think they came out pretty little ridges here digits oh those are just machines um yeah then I just machine I've just moved Benesch manually machine and I just I just cut them down and then proving tool yeah and just cut that you cut that and then part it off yeah nice so beautiful business yeah I just sold it flexor butter well so the deal is they're trapped so they have this step that you can see that on the back side so they're trapped in on that step so they only expand about 10-12 thousandth beyond what the four sizes so if you get rid of this is one of the liners out of that you get rid of the bridges out of the exhaust because the ring is too trying to fall into it yeah but it's still a test is everyone tested now when I get back then yeah that case work awesome yes and so I'll just to end the video here because I'm running out of battery oh yeah mark thank you for your time on the video bye keep on keep on talking after this sheriff that's the [Music] [Music] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] and this is so these are mostly customer bikes or are the hoarding near most of the ones over here unfortunately are mine oh yeah yeah two three three customer oh yeah there's the shopper all this whoa that's a that's a real cool shopper so this is what got you on today or flipped over to the dark side yeah - too many wheels right they're here and there's an intercooler or an eye radiate yeah of course there's no turbulant no turbo yet yes amount of vehicles present in the facility yeah they do specially the harness especially the home think I have a giant Honda Magnum yeah probably I would be so badass some sharper like is it question wake up the worst in me I would be flipping off people all the time I'm always happy awesome yeah how can not be like cuz I know we have a lot of wires coming and going installed yeah oh yeah we need to clean up that stuff it's a lot of them it's messing there it will be a completely new harness now with everything going into one microcontroller and just that one red light stream suggestive that just tells you like full trove we're off the troubles and that should be our fan of accessible harnesses yeah I would rather see a captured harness on the outside there yeah yeah yeah yeah I just like if you make it really neat that could be justice or maybe we could have it like to Christa yeah under it is with the new fuel tanks and it just like boiler getting slower off that fuel tank tank wouldn't like be in do a little I I thought I should do a better introduction of like too embarrassed of talking on camera so here's el Jimador okay so this might actually be the intro for this whole thing I think and so we're at Travis's shop here's Travis you probably know by now that event got canceled so we're actually like preparing for next year's event now and then talking about some changes to the bike and stuff so I'll thought I'll start with introducing everyone properly because I haven't done that yet so first it's el Jimador here Jim so Jim do you wanna like say a few things about yourself nothing nothing okay so Jim here is this kind of the the driving force of do this yeah the driving force behind this or he's the one who started it all he's the one who got us together and like arranged for this to happen so thank you Jim you're welcome yeah during it immensely also let it even though the event didn't happen yeah it's it's just a really good experience you know we're gonna be that much better next year having the best time of my life even though we're not even racing and then there's Dodd over there he's the criminal no it's James friend and a great storyteller that might be a good description and it's also a holder of multiple patents at snap-on so it's definitely quite a bit of knowledge here get her up you want to add something the old-timer creativity yeah old-timer creativity exactly exactly and Travis who are you I'm the monkey LaMacchia send me into space burn out some donuts donuts yeah I'm super excited to be with this crew humbled to be around such experienced people and in talented people and yeah thank you so he's the that's the pilots because he's quite experienced in writing fast stuff I'd say survived a few monkey trips out into space yes yeah yeah so that's the crew that's the crew so now along with the video I got beat by a fricken yeah yeah oh sorry hey take that chief that straight line or tension yeah that'll work okay it will engage license like do earlier just removing just that once away well yeah Pinkus in the splice there is there is the belt on roll the belt yeah just like that douche bag 2.0 [Laughter] yeah maybe it doesn't [Music] [Applause] this area out and just never like yeah [Applause] [Music] just got back from from our test ride and the good thing is that it seems like it's the jetting not the ignition maybe it's responding to leaning it out bad thing is that we broke two barriers which you guys warned me about so sorry no it's actually not broken it's uh it's like a bushing and it's just pull out of the out of the casting yeah so I just looked at it in there properly not broken Hoover thought yep so you didn't even begin to know oh it's just been running here first gear should go get him something la candelaria yeah you do yeah oh yeah what you're doing there Travis yeah barn up the Cougar [Music] whooshing that's gonna come out but no it's all out of menu everything is something that that other thing so we've got four yellow cheese's five Swiss cheese's peanut butter raisins chips salad potato salad everything and everything you could ever want yes tougher to hit first looked a little loose and then right snugged up its you bon moto yeah nice [Applause] back from the second test run today and still no still no success there's seems to be ignition trouble I'm gonna take remove the switches or take the switches out of the equation and see if that helps that's actually something we should have tried earlier on I think no I'm just the I like now you guys it's okay but like before that I was I couldn't film with my girlfriend there like I was set off I couldn't do it this has been like a major I've grown through this real [Music] mo mastery some how long you like stone [Music] take [Music] yeah hell so I just pulled the top end here and the ring is stuck that that might have been the problem all along like throughout this whole trip because probably that ring land got compressed when I took out the rug bearing in like at home on the dyno so laughing maybe we've been chasing our tail with fuel and ignition all this time and it's been that it's like being dropping in and out of compression like the ring has been ceiling and not sealing sealing and at high rpm it's been like this I'm American now okay I'll replace the piston and we'll see how it goes and the big end bearing is going out again for some strange reason we're starting to think it's this cracked these cracks because this is the second time that happens the same type of crack luckily I've got an Kartik crack now the replacement crank that's a different one who's supposed to be good yep tear down time too much el Jimador yes they're nice so nice with the reason is good and it's really no other way like using the not doing it mm-hmm but then this was applied to the ball switch turn like I'm supposed to do but I think we'll just have to do that yeah beat it in there with a hammer yeah that's not true what's here maybe dear I can't yeah put a wedge in there yeah the duck wouldn't work I don't think you can get it that's true Center me yeah pull it in there yeah micro polish micro-polishing fit now no more micro-polishing when you yeah and you won't get it in there and when you heat it up no more right there lay still do Pikes Peak yeah we'll get even drive early of the day and maybe halftime yeah yeah we'll see you tomorrow look we're up pretty early so we could do some testing and see just see see how things go yeah no yeah yes I forgot to film it though that's that the bike is running like it's supposed to do now after replacing the crank so that cranked which caused the ring to get stuck in the ring land that's the that's what's been going on all week now but now it's sorted now it runs how it raves like it's supposed to do yeah so testing tomorrow [Music] wicked wrench this one or they stay pretty busy they have so many freaking vehicles Caleb is busy you can tell that his stories nothing stays there for more than week or two as vehicles their quickness exactly really back home where I grew up this before the race it's great [Music] Travis hasn't crashes ain't [Music] [Applause] [Applause] yeah probably have to pick him up cause he little crash over we might as well just go ahead and load up yeah yeah it flies it flies yeah [Applause] Oh something it collects maybe yeah I think my legs yeah it's a battle alright seems like it well uh it's good yeah capsule speeder I got it up to 900 and we should like dialing lil I clean it out a little bit yeah we can't like did you try using this lever now like to see how it behaved yeah that's like if you that should increase the RPM okay but now if it's like it's like staying at 15,000 right but now now we won't have like missing look like five horsepower because yeah it's not an important it's just yeah yeah and it works actually you can write it yeah [Applause] [Music] [Applause] ah [Laughter] [Music] [Music] yeah it's probably like like it wasn't my welding this time it was a previous well there earlier well that broke it's a high stress yeah small section I'm now we're running like I don't know it's at least like a 20 20 millimeter stinger holder that it won't make any poor at all sorry sir needs to be like 16 millimeters Publishing calculations you can just weld it up and the next pipe I'm a cow I like do the calculations again because I can't remember exactly how how it was supposed to be and some gauge gauge sexy yeah you shouldn't engage its another shop six upscale shop [Music] goochy goochy goochy you like that huh it's you're better off in the front I'll take the back that's okay so Don you want to have the front seat back seat it doesn't matter whatever you want yeah I can take the Frog yeah all right this is it that the end till next time yeah just sweaty how does you like this really nice meeting you it's a great guy thank you - happy feet you guys thank you well enough thank you for everything pretty good time you know yeah next year developers three we're riding in less fixing I'm gonna bring them all to shame they say it's all part of it yeah yeah break stuff big stuff yeah I'm hoping now like next year I'll break most of stuff at home and then I not so much breaking here okay but there will be carnage yeah energy glory carnage and Gary hopefully we won't have to steal anymore they just got that burn for a car to plug right here on this right here below at the road correction it seems like we're supposed to be going down the way around to banking maybe I'll make it big in the documentary yes see now have to just yeah that's you we failed it right yeah yeah if you want to cook yeah then I'm I'm poor that I'm happy well him adores cooking up some spam here good old spam we got eggs potato salad awesome camped just a few miles from Pikes Peak so we're going after now just in a few minutes I think when everybody's up and ready to go and that'll be a cool experience because the highest I've ever been is I think that's I might might be less than 2,000 meters and Pikes Peak is four thousand three hundred or something it's less twice as high as I've ever been it will be a kind of cool like driving after can't do that Norway error bear country yeah is there on the side beer area I think's almost eaten just two weeks ago here [Music] I got this one load or the time yeah there's a lot of Windsor so you won't be able to hear and anything of what I'm saying I'll turn now yeah Pikes Peak let's go there that slightly lower pointin 92 Cloud City Morris okay knocks slowly back down in town yeah it's cool are they have a place to write try said that that's all all you need to have the health food yeah the trials the bar I think my bike would have been pretty shady from trial where is my camera my very worst ever yeah my tripod trials bike would be pretty bad well that's been yeah [Music] Last Supper actually dinner yeah yeah Ruby Tuesday well we get there a little early that's good oh yeah okay that's it them just checked in with the five from Denver to Salt Lake City so I'm kind of flying backwards here but that's because I'm meant to fly from Salt Lake City in the first place and it was easier and less expensive to just get another flight than to change that Salt Lake City flight anyways I guess this is it it's been a great experience best experience of my life and we're going back next year best experience without even racing yeah so next year we'll be back with a vengeance
