I Put A Jet Engine On My Bicycle
You won't believe how fast this thing goes compared to my jet powered kayak! Honestly too fast. If I held the throttle down full, the bike would get past 40mph and beyond QUICK! I felt it happening on my first run within seconds and the bike started a high speed wobble so I shut it down. After that, I kept it at half throttle and it was still plenty of fun and more importantly, controllable. But knowing how fast things escalated when that knob was turned too far....um...I think I'll stick to peddle power from now on!

The child-like joy on your face as you rocket down the street is infectious Marty. An excellent build my friend!
This was so much fun. The speed was wonderful but the sound was even better. I also like how you build so many cool things without a big workshop and expensive equipment. This engine would look great on my little Jetson bolt E bike. Of course I would have to add a stabilizer to control the death wobble from the 14 inch wheels. Good one Marty.👍👍
I love that you put a jet engine on a bicycle with only a coaster brake lol.
Zoffinger you never cease to amaze me man. Love the content keep it up I been watching you since you had 3,000 subscribers.

HOLY WOW!!! i gotta say, this is absolutely incredible! I stumbled upon this video while I was searching for ways to attach a flag pole to a bike for Burning Man... have you ever heard of it? you are the type of guy who would absolutely be at home on the playa with your amazing DIY creations. Even if the jet motor didn't work and was there just for a sort of steampunk aesthetic, this would still be incredible... but you actually made it WORK!!! Hats off to you man! 😮
I don’t try sketchy stuff at home, I go to the neighbors house.

32,000 people have lived vicariously through your video... Tongue out... flip flops, airmen helmet and goggles, shorts and everything. At least we did not get to read about a "florida man" doing dukes of hazard over an alligator while on a jet bicycle. That first time was terrifying because you had a camera in one hand, thing was not dialed... it was wobbling. Whew... I was not even there and I got scared on your behalf.
Being a craftsman myself, I very much enjoy your projects.
I learn something every time I watch your videos, Thank you sir!
Ah Marty-always up to something-fishing 🎣 designing/tinkering 🧰 🛠️ putting unnecessary holes in boats 😳 and the occasional experiment with a jet engine 👀 😐 😏 just don’t hurt yourself while we hold your beer! 😃
Marty you are my #1 diy men on my list , with all your project , Keep up the good work!
I thought back when you made that poor man kayak that that was soo cool. This was a fun vid to watch! Stay safe and keep having fun man.
Marty... I volunteer as tribute for a full speed run! I've already got riding (protective) gear for my motorcycle. Let me know if you wan a test pilot. Keep up the AWESOME work man!
Seeing this in action confirms an idea I had, I plan on adding 2 smaller electric ones to an Ebike that already goes close to 50 MPH, I want to use the jets as a nitro/turbo boost effect whenever I need it, plus electric means no gasoline, a bit quieter, and quicker initiation 🥹 love your project brother, safe travels 😊
I love watching and knowing where everything is.. lol Glad your back..
it’s time we got a happy Zofferz upload. I hate seeing our hero appear to move in reverse after smashing the reset button. we know he’s not & we’re all rooting for him. get it, Marty. thanks for returning
Crazy but great! Love it when you start making things Marty, and this is probably one of the best! Greetings from across the pond - Stay safe & well! 😁😁👍👍
Sounded like a 747 on take off. That was awesome!
That’s freaking awesome Marty
Cangratulation!! You have made a great invention which I think nobody have tried before. I know it's not easy but you did it. 👏👏👏
Zoff, have you put an electric motor on a surf board yet? Yup, Brooklyn to Fla, re-habitation, complete.
Had I been there as you road past... I'd have been laughing like all get out... it's just so funny hearing the sound of a low flying jet blast by as you pass by...

I like how he says "this is something not to be tried at home" but he literally tried it at home.. lol I love this dude!
That’s awesome, love watching your builds Marty ❤️❤️
Love watching you work on this project, I know you know the dangers and I'll leave it at that. But glad you are hanging it up. Hate to see you hurt. Love you man.
Absolutely and utterly totally awesome. 👍👍👍👍👍👍. What great fun.
Mr. Marty is a Daredevil who has lots of guts…!! 👍🙏
That was amazing!!! Glad you had a good ride and no mishaps.
Glad to see that engine is still bumping around 👍.
Wow, you need some wings, man. Then you can fly!! Great video!!
You should make an air propelled kayak!! (big propeller) ⛵ 🌬️ 💨
Hey Marty! Hold MY Beer! Lol! Another Great Video My Man!
WW1 leather helmet. safety googles and flip flops, Classic Marty mode of operations, what could go wrong? lol, Thanks for the entertainment sir.
Love the video, happy belated birthday , hope you keep up being you, my kinda fun
Awesome video from start to end
cool ride lmao thought the jet boat was cool but that bike looks fun but dangerous adventure
Marty you never cease to amaze wih your builds....
wow! need to find away to have jet power a Belt for tire rotation! No need to Pedal, just blast off!
You enjoy making things and I enjoy watching you do it! You're a maker. That's the way God designed you. On that jet bike, I'd like to see you add a cowling over the engine. That could go a long way toward keeping any flame excursions off your flammable clothing and maybe even direct much of the noise rearward.
It's so weird, every time I I find my self what Marty might be up to, there's usually a video that just went up. Be safe

"Dont try this at home" Are you kidding me. I starting work on it right now. Wildest thing Iv ever seen on the Tube. Bet this will be next Instagram shorts viral video fad - people showing off riding their jet bicycles.
I was watching RCA Jets race And I thought those engines look small enough to put on a bicycle AND What do you know somebody did it right here in Tampa Did the Pinellas county sheriff give you any hassle over that. Because man I have to do this. I am technically in Pasco. And you shouldn't have to worry about that Schwinn it is a Schwinn you can basically skeletonize those things. I think you're my new hero. With the small enough kayak and that bicycle being able to be mounted to the kayak and then some kind of trailer system for the kayak to the bicycle You could fish the peak tide all over the Tampa Bay area. Yeah I think I found a new hero😂
at first i thought it would be a aid but holy that thang rips letss goooo
That was f’ing epic!!!!!!
That was totally wicked!!!!!!
This is a very interesting venn diagram. Jet motor, fishing rod holders, bicycle.
I’ll stick to my e-bike, but it sure was fun watching you jetting down the road
ridiculous and awesome all at once!
Thanks Mr. Z! Always a hoot!
The Marty Speeder Bike!
Putting a bell on the handlebar is like putting a candle in front of a foghorn. What would be a good brand of LEDs for my kayak for night fishing
Thanks for sharing 🎅🏻

Oh man that was great !!!!
Insane! Insanely COOL!
Always awesome, dude...
Keep up the great content!
Great.. Florida Joe
Always enjoy your content brother 👊🏻🤙🏻
This is awesome!!!
Much fun. Indeed
where do people get those mini jet engines? i see a few other makers use these in videos. 12:49 attatches a bell in case they don't hear the mini jet engine. good idea!
I agree Todd, "What are you doing....?"
Where did you bought the engine
Stupid idea? Yeah. Fun? Yeah. I always thought that stupid and fun seem to go together and I have the scars to prove it! Serious question though: What is used as fuel?

It runs on diesel, kerosene or Jet-A. I used the first since it was cheapest and most easily accessible.
Loved it❤
Hell yea..!!!!
next project , RR RB211 on the bike
IVE BEEN SAYING THIS ONE FOR A LONG TIME. Hydrofoil jet powered kayak or at least the coleman outboard, on a hydro foil kayak. the jet powered kayak would have worked if it had a hydrofoil. too much drag having the entire hull in the water.
Brilliant, love it! 😂
No Marty, were going put rockets on our bikes lmao. I bet the jet set you back some bread Was it sponsored

I bought the darn thing, thinking it would generate some revenue and get views. Also, I thought it was too cool not to at least give it a try. Not sure if I ever broke even on this purchase.
Amazing
You do know that now you are going to have to put a pair of those on a boat.
Can you day "back to the future"?
How to turn a $100 bike into a $15k bike!
I’m curious what your top speed was.
Sandals and no helmet, hope that body is insured...🤣😊🤣 OK so your saying two jets is better then and skis instead of wheels ....O...K 😊👍
I wish I could afford one or make one if I had the plan and tools for a engine lathe
You Should have tried the jet engine off when your at a complete stop and see how it performs?
Cool
Here you are doing Elon level stuff, and I'm still puttering with kayak mods. Atta Boy, Marty!
👍👍👍👍👍
4 jet engines on a kayak 🤔
I like it but the engine is too small where as you use peddels
i want one
Jetcats are thousands of dollars...how'd you afford that. Seriously, I'm in the wrong line of work.
👍🏼👍🏼
Flip flop test pilot.
2 jet engines 🤔
Well most people started watching your channel just for this very type of content, so…
Where's your big boat did you ever sell it
Your missing a speedometer.
Ok, what’s the story with bare feet in the workshop? Only a matter of time.
Love the video but find a new brand of beer….
Try the jet engine on a kayak
