Your videos never disappoint-learn and laugh while you watch. Well done and a 👍 as always. God bless.
The new caliper clock is awesome Bro. Just like the new bike 👊😁👍
15:01 First engine start.
Fantastic as always, not much better than waking up to a new DonnDiy video! Thank you!!!
now you have the frame jig, you could set up a "build to order" production run.
The little "ahhh" in the background when the plasma cutter collided with the ground clamp was hilarious. Edit. I just got to the end of the video and that caliper clock is awesome.

@DonnDIY Donn, did you know that the youtube channel Quantum Tech HD are using your content? They have made a 48 min video using your footage of the ATV that you made. Their video has 9.7 million views. If you didn't give permission for this, you should complain to youtube and try to get some revenue from it.

Plenty of noises like that in my workshop! It’s good that Donn leaves the wee mistakes in - it’s very human 😁👍
Thank you for the quality video and positive emotions
Loved the MAXO-MADE mini-micrometer , you sneaked that one in real good. The Minibike is coming right along Donn. Thanks for sharing and show the fun you have around there too. Fred.

Yup, can't wait either. I will probably be underwhelmed by the engine performance at my weight 100+kg (220lbs) but it'll just be for moving around on the farm anyway. Performance bikes will be kept separately.😛

I love the Mititoyo Clock. You better get that crossbar done quick or it won’t fit until tomorrow.
i loved the paquimeter Mitutoyo! hahahaha
like a glove! another great off road toy. love it
Looking good so far, that's the modern version of the manco big cat minibike. They weighed 215 pounds.

I look forward to new videos every time and enjoy watching them. Thank you for your creativity. Good luck to you and all the best. Russia, Moscow.
Nice caliper...😁
You do awesome work. I love watching your content.
Cracked me up & I spilled coffee on my leg when I seen your new vernier's lol.
Nice build!! Should be a fun runabout right… and the caliper clock!! Haha, love it!
Front fender needs to be lower in the back. It will keep the motor cleaner/better cooling, less clean-up. Looking awesome!
This is the ultimate hard snow vehicle
Bro I'm enjoying so much this series! Congrats for this job and hello from Brazil! 🇧🇷😮🎉
Once again Donn, a very well considered, well planned and well executed project. Your projects are becoming more refined with a level of expertise that is rarely encountered with the level of entertainment that you also provide. I've also noted that your English language skills have improved greatly. Well done Donn!! Thanks for the entertainment!
Oh, that clamp made a mess...it worked well without the clamp the second time around though. Thanks DonnDIY! 👍💪✌
Nicely done sir!!!! Love the fat tired mini bikes. You should mount some lights on the handle bars and run them off the motor and use a rectifier to charge your battery while it’s running.
Looking so nice and fun. Love Big tires
Looking really good, thanks for sharing your videos. 👍

Nice job on the mini bike
You do awesome work
for the crossbar between the handle bars i would do a metal plate instead so you can more easily mount things to it such as headlights if you feel like it
Now it needs is one of those old iron tractor seats and footpegs made of a length of chain with the links welded together.
Nicely done, the singing the strips lol

Coolest clock ever! 😁 Bike is coming along nicely. I really like the fenders made of trailer fenders. They're cheap and durable. Win-win. Looking forward to the next episode. Greetings from the Netherlands, Mark

You should have lower the front fender a bit down, looks like it's gonna spray on the motor. Besides that, looks delicious!

Those plastic fenders are quite square compared to the rounded curve of the tires, I would have heated the corners and gradually bent the sides out to Match the fork angle or the tire contour.
This is coming out excellent! It would be cool if you could plasma cut out your YT name and weld that in the middle of your bars. Cool build Donn I can't wait to see this thing sling ROOST!!! .....and who knows, maybe someday you'll swap an old 250 2stroke into this baby!

I'll try and keep this bike as a quick-get-around bike on the farm. I'll probably keep the performance mods close to none and work on other projects instead.👍

Yeah makes sense to keep it stock. This thing is going to be pretty fast with the Torq-A-Verter. When I was a kid I had a 5.5HP on my minibike with TAV and it would would want to flip you off if your were not careful. I can't wait to see this thing ripping! Hope you're staying warm Donn.@@DonnDIY
The front fender will touch the frame when steering.
Yup, You always want to measure Your minibike with enormous caliper! 😎

Another quality Donn DIY video and great progress on the build. Loved the motorbike sound effects, short singing interlude, and giant calliper clock. Just awesome
Хорошо!👍жду продолжения!
As always awesome work and creativity! I don't want to tell u your business but maybe u should leave the flat section extended out on the front fender like a dirt bike so u don't get mud in your face. I race quads and the most irritating thing is getting mud in my mouth from the front tires slinging forward and then I drive through it when I'm moving.
Nice! 😂
Damn those calipers are sweet! What are they 0 to 2 meters? They must have cost a fortune.
Maxi tool clock to tell when mini bike is completed.
Go for it!
I was wondering about the ground clamp...Ouch
@15:04 Laughing out loud. The people in the dentist office are looking at me now. 🤣😂🤣😂

Tänud! Tervitused 🇪🇪👍
I just have a lowly coleman minibike that i use for cheap easy transport around the ranch, trust me, you'll want mud flaps to keep you clean, ive mudflapped mine to the point i can ride the muddy driveway at full tilt with my flip flops on and not even get my feet wet, but it also keeps mud and swill of the engine and chain which makes maintenance so much nicer. I have a flexible rubber flap on the back of the front fender, front and rear of the rear fender, one that goes across under my foot pegs and a stainless sheetmetal guard between the chain and the tire, it took some fitting, but the chain would have to get deep enough to hit the mud for it to get dirty. Are you going to rig up some kind of two speed "gearbox"? Being able to go slow enough to not burn up the clutch can be beneficial
@DonnDIY

I'm probably moving in the same direction with the mud guards and flaps once I get to use it for some time. The bike has CVT so no gearbox needed.👍

@DonnDIY I'm talking more of a hi range low range situation more than a shift on the fly transmission. I'm excited to see how you finish it out, I love the way you did the front wheel/hub!
I think your front guard will foul in the front frame when you turn the bars. hope it doesn't
I THINK THE LONGER FENDER WAS BETTER, JUST MY PREFERENCE.
🤘
Nice work, but isn’t that front wheel clearance to the lower frame tube a little tight?
👍👍👍!!!

How are you doing, you haven’t posted any new videos lately? I miss seeing your videos. Keep up the great videos!! God Bless

I may be a bit slow on this one, but were did you buy/get the caliper watch? I have just rebuild my machine shop, and it would fit just perfect here as well as in your shop 😃👍
It seems that your time has come.
Nice build. I noticed you don't have any suspension to soften the bumps. Do you think it will be able to go very fast over the terrain without a rough ride...?
@MrCaprinut

Most of the fat tire mini bikes have no suspension at all. The balloon tires acts as dampers. Mike Festiva featured mini bikes of such sort that he raced in the woods without problems.
Hello, I have been watching your videos for years, very educational! I'm curious about the next project. By the way, do you have the link to the caliper clock? is a nice gift for my father! Greetings Tom from the Netherlands

Cheers! This bike is inspired by the fuel ration minibikes that were popular in USA at some point in time. These also had no suspension except the tires.👍
you might have done it already but the low oil shut off sensor .. I unhook them on my go karts .. in a turn the oil will go to one side of a engine and the sensor will shut off the engine .
