Vintage Rupp Mini Bike '69 - '70 Banchi Chain Guard | eBay

I'm looking for a few different guards, and I know this thread is probably a waste of time, but figured I'd ask anyway. long guard (chopper, Rascal, or Banchi) 69 Roadster guard 64-65 Continental guard (either with or without the vents) Any help would be appreciated!

I bought this bike for the engine that was on it. Now that I've got that, I really have no use for the rest of the bike. Wheels are correct and in great condition. The chrome shows promise and the turbines are in good shape. The rear brake works great. The frame is good and solid. I...

Finally got the first test run on my first build today. Took a few months but finally got it moving and it runs great. It still needs some little stuff done to it like paint, seat etc. Thank you everyone who helped me out In this forum, theres know way I couldve done it without you. Much...

I just finished my 1969 Rupp Banchi restoration. I just got the chain guard back from the chrome shop and installed it today. I have more money in that guard than most people have in their entire mini bike. I can see ever restoring another mini bike soon.

Here's a photo of a Rupp I picked up on eBay late last year for $114.00. The only parts missing were the pull starter and side cover, air filter housing, clutch guard, and brake cable and brake arm. I have it disassembled and almost ready for paint. I'll post more photos later.
