    Rupp Kart with Harley-Davidson Snowmobile Engine

    I ended up buying a very unique summer project for only $240 today...I pretty sure it is a 60s - 70s Rupp go kart frame if I am not mistaken. Well the owner before me mounted a 70's 440CC Harley-Davidson snowmobile engine on it and rode it around for a while and ended up storing it in his garage...

    The best way to get tires off a rim?

    I will be putting inner tubes in my DB30 tires since air likes to leak out of them. I got my inner tubes in the mail today and I can't seem to get these tires off the rim. I used a pry bar and tried to break the bead, but it won't work and I am worried I will bend my rims more or puncture the...

    Picked up this DB30 last night

    Well, it has been about a year and a half since I last owned a mini bike. I got out of the mini bike scene because I was getting into the old Japanese enduros and found them to be more down my alley. I never thought I would ever own another mini bike again after I got into those...well I was...

    Fox Spoiler value?

    I have a 1970s Fox Spoiler that I'm thinking about selling or trading and was wonder how much it's worth. It's running and in good condition, with a minor problem with the chain slipping cause of a light sway in the rear axle. Bolt or nut needs to be tightened or replaced. All original too! Thanks!

    Well I'm still having problems with my Honda GC160 engine which was stored upside down on accident. Oil and gas the all over the engine, but it cleaned a good portion of it off and filled it up completely with oil and gas. Started and ran for 30 seconds while burning some oil and shut up when I...

    Honda 250R enduro junkyard find

    While wondering around a North Carolina junkyard, I saw this beautiful Honda 250R enduro in the motorcycle section. It has no title and I believe it's being sold just for parts, but I'm sure buying it as a whole is possible. Does anyone know what year the bike is by any chance? Not sure how much...

    Vintage Enduros

    Hey guys, I know this is not necessarily about "mini bikes", but it's still resembles them in a way. Sooner or later I'm looking into buying a vintage enduro bike of some type. I want a vintage bike for a few reasons: 1) They are very durable and they were practically made to be bulletproof. 2)...

    1969 Manco Delta One Chopper almost ready to ride!

    Well I got some good news today! I finally found a motor that will fit on my chopper (even though it's newer) and it runs great! The engine is from a Baja Warrior (196cc) and pushing 6.5 HP I believe. I put a Predator 212cc recoil start on it and started it up! I need to get the right air filter...

    Fox Spoiler Chain Problem!

    Well my chain of my Fox Spoiler slipped once again yesterday, but this time the chain is too tight for me to move it back on the jackshaft sprocket. I have found the master link on the chain, but I'm too afraid to try and get it off because I don't want to break anything. Is there a proper way...

    1969 Manco Delta One Chopper progress!

    Today my friend and I assembled my 1969 Manco Delta One chopper! Yeah I did put some scratches on the bike and maybe it's missing a simple washer somewhere, but it's solid and not gonna fall apart. For my first restoration, it's not a bad job for a 17 year old. All it needs is a motor and other...
