Mini bike Engine – The Heart of the Machine

If riding a mini bike is your passion, you will surely know that even if there are a hundred components, it is the engine that is at the heart of it and keeps it going. Further, the power of the engine determines a whole lot of factors, from the size of the mini bike to whether it is an on-road or off-road machine.

Mini bikes are available in various configurations, from 49cc engines to powerful ones over 200 cc. If you consider in terms of HP, a 6.5 hp engine has a displacement of 196 cc. This is the category that is most common and popular in mini bikes.

Consider the specifications of a 6.5 hp engine with a Sport Tank that can be bought separately when building a mini bike from scratch. This 196cc Powersport Engine fits most kits and can be used as a replacement engine for most Go-karts and Minibikes. This 6.5 hp engine has a recoil start, and throttle cable hookup. Buy engines from retailers who have years of experience in the precision machining industry for torque converters and clutches, Go-Karts, Minibikes and other small vehicles.

Even though you might have a mini bike with a 6.5 hp engine with 196cc displacement, you can easily upgrade your big engine with a 212cc 6.5 Hp engine with a high-performance carburetor air filter intake kit. It's a quick and easy job to upgrade your engine's air filter. Larger displacement gas powersports engines need larger volumes of clean dust-free air into the carburetor in order to produce the horsepower that this big filter does. It does a great job in keeping the dust and crud out of your carburetor.
