Hi Everyone, I finally finished my BC1300 restoration. Thanks for all the help including Machester1, Marcus, Bill, K.C., and others. Now, was does a sixty-five year old do with a mini bike :rolleyes:. Regards, Bill

Hello all. I’m really close to finishing my BC1300 restoration. Thanks to all the members here who support me. My question/problem is that when I rotate the rear wheel the chain that goes from the jack shaft to the rear sprocket gets tight then loose as I rotate the wheel. It’s not the jack...

Hello all: I'm looking for an original Bonaza gas tank as shown in the picture below. I can use the long style or the short style, but I need an original. I'd like "excellent" condition, but would consider one I can repair and re-chrome which unfortuantely is a long process. Thanks so much...

Hello all. I searched for a long time for rear shocks for my BC1300 restoration. The ones I found were only good enough for paterns so I made some for my restoration and some extra pairs to sell. I had to make quite a bit of tooling to do this properly so making a small batch made sense...

Hi all: I'm confused. I have the three proper pieces. I tossed the old seat wood as it was in very bad shape. I remember verifying that the screw holes matched before tossing out the original the old one. My recollection is that the mount goes as shown in the pics. It goes togther nicely that...

...got the BC1300 frame painted today. Color matched to an original. Used a blend of Chevrolet Nassau Blue and Chevrolet International Blue plus a touch of green tint. The original Bonanza paint was blue with a hint of turquoise. I have a pint remaining which is enough for 3 coats if you spray...

An example of why the restoration costs are so high. Recent eBay sale (not me on either end) Sold. $455 + shipping. I have all the parts now for my BC1300 build and just finished painting the frame color matched to the original Bonanza blue. $300 alone for the paint (epoxy primer, base blend...

This is the sprocket that came on my early '68 BC1300. I have no idea how it got that way, but I needed an original 60 tooth sprocket for the early Go Power wheels. Unable to find an original sprocket in good shape I decided to restore this one.

Since I'm asking a lot of questions on the forum I had better step-up my posting as well :) Like almost every pair of Bonanza shocks I've seen, the shocks in my bike were abused over the years. Like someone said, "the kid will do anything to get the mini bike running again." I checked the...

Hello all. I'm looking for the proper jackshaft sprocket sizes for my BC1300 Restoration. I have the correct H35 and it presently has a 13 tooth clutch. The rear wheel has the original 60 tooth sprocket. I need the number of teeth for the engine side and the wheel side. Thanks, Bill

I've never met Dave, but discovered his story while trying to source some Bonanza parts. Those parts aren't important now - what's important is to get the word out that Dave and his family could use some help - thoughts, prayer and financial support. If you know of Dave, then you know he's a...

Hello all. do you have any tips or techniques to remove and re-install the front and back springs. The detached one popped-off when I struggled to get the lower fork out of the upper fork. Any help is much appreciated. Regards, Bill
