Thank You, all

I don't know why I keep double posting, I am very sorry. If I can figure out how to remove one of these photos, I will, or, if any moderator folks know how and want to, I would be grateful

Hello everyone, me again, with the 50 dollar Nova- I have looked in all the places I am supposed to, to find the engine number, and horsepower rating of what I believe to be the original engine...can anybody give me a guesstimate of what they think this might be?

cheap fenders, with cheaper yet rattle can chrome fenders in the background

That is my intention. However, I live right smack in the middle of the redwoods in Northern CA (take Highway 101 North until you see a sign that says 'welcome to Oregon", turn around, go 15 miles, and here I am) and 75 inches of rain a year is quite normal. We do get days of clear weather...

well, with new fork and front and rear wheel bearings, fenders, and a few stickers on the engine, I'm gonna call it done, NOT a restoration, more of a "clean it up and ride the heck out of it" job...just over 100 bux in it now.. ;-)

Found the chain size when I was bead blasting the sprocket...#35 Thank You, all...

aaahh, thank for for this !!! That will be printed out, laminated, and saved !!!!

desert rat, sent you a message..

Hi, all, I know this is most likely a dumb question, but I have searched, and haven't found the answer- Id the drive chain 420? I need a master link, and while I know they aren't expensive, I don't want to get a bunch of ther wrong ones..

Okay, question for the gurus (probably the first of many)- There is a chain idler that holds tension against the lower part of the chain...anybody ever seen this on a Nova before? Got to actually ride it for the first time today, a bit slow on the uptake but thats understandable, as I am 210+...

Hello all, you may have seen my "what is it" thread, on my7 Nova Minibike. It appears to be an older Briggs and Stratton engine, and I believe from the size of the tank and general engine appearance, that is a 5 horse model. My question is..without a dipstick, how do I know when I have put...

I'm sorry, I am trying to delete the extra one, and can't seem to...If anybody on here knows how to get rid of this double post, please, by all means, do. Sorry...:(

I have some videos of the scrub brake working, and the engine running and when revved the clutch engages, but they came to me on Messenger on Facebook, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to get them on here...

Thank You, everybody- It is indeed, a Nova, made by the Nova Company in Gardena, CA. I have heard of Taco's and Bonanza's and Ruttmans (oh my !! ;) ) but never a Nova. I'm gonna have fun getting this little beast back ion shape

Okay, just paid 50 bux for this, they say it runs, but needs work...Can anyone identify the frame or forks?

It's fun, it pulls like a freight train to about5-8 mph, and then falls flat on it's face...perfect for playing on the old logging roads here :thumbsup:
