Both are sold!! Thank you OldMiniBikes!

OK, lets make a deal... $375.00 OBO. Delivery free within 30 miles or so..

Lol! Me too. Just to reiterate, it is 400$ for both. Priced to sell!!

I'm selling these two Sprites as the boys are too big for them. Would rather a package deal. I will drive about 30 minutes to meet. The red one has a foot brake and a 79CC engine and the PMR jackshaft. Home made seat. The blue one has a 212CC pred with a footbrake.

I feel that you should err on the side of a bigger motor. The 212 stage II and TAV would be great for flat land etc.. But once you go up hills, that is where the TQ will need to be available. No replacement for displacement. I might even look at the 420CC (13HP) from Harbor Freight. Those...

gets spark, and does kinda start on ether. It is kinda tough to hold that 3MM? screw and tighten down the nut. I willl check to see if the rods are bent.

It is a piece meal bike. Trail Blazer frame with Bonanza front forks. HF Predator Hemi engine and PMR engine plate. Clutch is a 41 chain OldMiniBikes clutch with a 54 tooth rear sprocket. Front and rear are both 6" wheels with 530/450/6 tires. Tire is about 16" tall. Homemade seat. Very torquey with...

Ran great! Put it away for like 3 weeks and it fired right up. Got it out of the garage, hit the throttle and died. Now no start. Tried two different plugs. Made sure main jet was not green with ethanol crude. Gets gas and if it "tries" to start i get a back fire or a backfire through the...

Nope, got rid of it./

AGREED!!! WTF was that cop thinking? I mean that should be the story!
