The Real Life Guys are a group of German engineers and mechanics who have revolutionized the networks thanks to the numerous inventions that have come out of their garage. We have seen them make a miniature tank, an individual submarine capable of submerging up to three meters deep, and they have even devised a bathtub powered by a small jet engine.
Everything that comes out of the workshop of the boys and girls of The Real Life Guys They make it themselves by hand: they weld, cut, create pieces from scratch and do not hesitate to take advantage of anything they find in the storage room, and that is one of its greatest hallmarks.
His latest project continues in the line of his usual madness; On this occasion, they have taken a children’s bicycle for five-year-olds and converted it in a small two-stroke beast capable of reaching 200 km/h, and for this there is nothing better than facing it on an airport straight in front of a Ferrari 488 with more than 500 hp of power.
Its creator recovered an old two-cylinder 30 hp boat engine to give life to this particular pit-bike; Being a bicycle with almost toy brakes and a ridiculously sized chain, he had to remake the bicycle practically from scratch.
He installed the engine, put in bigger brakes, a fuel tank at the back, reused an old radiator to control the temperature and also had to reinforce the transmission to withstand the 30 hp of power of its new two-stroke engine.
After an initial contact on a highway, the father of this creature did not take long to realize the small mistakes he had made; first, a total lack of control in the front axle when exceeding 60 km/h. And to avoid shimmie, there is nothing better than installing a motorcycle steering damper.
He also noticed that the exhaust gases burned his leg, and for example you only have to look at the burn it leaves on his pants. The solution? Create his own exhaust from scratch, with metal sheets and a pipe that he installed as a silencer and that also gives the invention an even more badass image.
Now with your project finished, and after going through the power bank and discovering that It is capable of reaching 197 km/h, It was time to do a real test by fire in front of a Ferrari 488. And how did it go? Well, we don’t want to spoil the video too much, but we already told you that the problems arising from the shimmie were not solved with the steering damperand its pilot and creator ends up suffering a small accident from which he comes out somewhat sore, although nothing serious.
The Real Life Guys will not stop here, and they plan to continue improving their motorized children’s bike to make it more or less drivable and be able to beat the Ferrari on the track. Of course, as several YouTube users point out, it will be necessary to change the geometry of the bicycle and lengthen the distance between the axles if they want the bike to be able to withstand that power and speeds without ending up losing control.
