Some :censure::censure::censure: stole Jason's mini bike right out of the back of my truck last night. It was strapped down with 4 tie down straps and I had the truck backed into the driveway right up close to the house. I didn't hear anything and with it being just outside of my bedroom window...

Anyone own one of these Smithy mill & drill combo machines/ I'm thinking about getting one after Christmas. I'd like some ffedback on these machines so I can decide what to do. Thanks :grind::hack::weld::confused1:

Hey guys, I haven't had the time to research this yet. Has anyone seen or heard of a cheaper version of the Briggs V-twin in any HP configuration? Just wondering. One day I'd like to build me a mini chopper trike (street legal) to cruise to work & back on. Would be sweet with a new Baker...

Hey Drew, You forgot to put a catagory in for Sears mini's. That is all, BarnDawg out......

Since there is really nowhere to mount a band brake on a 2hp Briggs I decided to do a jackshaft disc brake. I got a little creative on this one. Since I like to re-use or recycle, this was just the thing to do. I used a guide wheel from a snowblower and modified it by welding a 5/8 shaft collar...

Here's a good thing to use old golf balls for. I used to work at a factory right next to a golf course a few years ago and I would bring home several dozen stray golf balls a month. Just drill a pilot hole about an inch deep and hammer a file into the ball until it's nice & tight and viola a...

Here's what I'm starting with. I know the frame is a Rupp either C-350 or TT500 with the wrong forks and handlebars from a Fox or something. I painted it about a year ago and it's been on the waiting projects shelf. His birthday is the last day of the month, so while he's at his mom's for his...

Just want to get an idea who's coming this weekend.. Please speak up if you're coming. I'm supplying hot dogs for Saturday lunch before the ride. Would like to know if I have enough dogs or not. Jim

Finished the Roadster and rode it in the back yard. Can't wait till the trail ride to really see what it's got. With the 5hp Briggs it seems like it'll climb anything, maybe even a tree. lol Come to the trail ride at St. Joe state park on the 23rd and 24th. It'll be a blast. I'll have OldMiniBikes...

Maybe it would be nice to have a place for people to post a list of what they have in thier collections. Like, HERE! I'll start. I started my collection with a vintage 1964 Rupp Grand Prix race kart, from there I went through a few old race karts, but have kept my GP (it's the same year I was...

Almost finished with my '70 Roadster. I rode it today..WOW! it's gonna be a heck of a trail ride next month... can't wait!! Still have to repaint the tank and wait till I can afford to get a new seat cover and decals. I'll have pics up as soon as I repaint the tank or you can see it at the trail...
