    Drill Bit Sharpening

    I have been hand sharpening drill bits on my belt sander for years and years. I have been pretty good at it for a long time but that is just it. I am only pretty good... It is a hit or miss deal sometimes. Sometimes I can sharpen one and it will cut like a hot knife through butter. Most of the...

    In...Just a bit: Off-topic

    Hey fellas, glad to be a member. I've got a few mini bikes; Cushman Trailster, Doodlebug, Sprite Fox, Montgomery Wards, Cagllari, and I'd like to know more about the older ones. I've been messing around with small engines, tractors, cars, pickups, and basically anything with moving parts for...

    Just got bit by the Minibike Bug..

    I'm new here, name is Bumblebee2, AKA John... I just got bit by the Minibike bug..so I have 23 motorcycles, why not make the 24th a minibike. This is what I have, an eBay find. It was local, and it's look caught my eye. Any idea what it was before it was modified? Runs and rides great.

    Something flew out the breather

    So i got the Craftsman Tecumseh I picked up a couple of weeks ago running and got the idle adjustment just so. I was lightly reving it to get a good sense of the main adjustment and its ability to load up without stalling or stuttering and i swear i saw a small object fly out the breather and a...

    Interesting yard sale day

    I'm pretty new in my area, and don't know anyone except a couple immediate neighbors. Today there was a yard sale at the other end of my street (it's pretty long, semi-rural). Someone's old chopper-style roller was visible from the road, but she looked real tired, I wasn't excited. I started...

    Wheel identification

    Any idea what these are? Thanks for your expertise! The spoke design is slightly different on this one. It's a bit flatter spoke than the red wheel.

    Honda gx160 misfiring under full load

    Hey guys its been a while for me here on OldMiniBikes. Anyways, took the bike out today for a bit. Was running fine and then it just started sputtering/misfiring under full load. It didnt stall and I rode it about a quarter mile back home on maybe 1/3 throttle. I looked at the plug and it was a bit...

    1973 Honda ST90 - doesn't seem to shift at higher RPM

    I've only ridden one of these things for perhaps 10 minutes total, so bear with me if I ask some dumb questions. Got one of these 3 speed 'semi-automatic' ST90's the other day. 3 down, neutral up. It doesn't seem to want to shift gears unless the RPM's are down a bit. I'm cruising along...

    Swapped a 212 for a 97....performance help, please?

    My son is 13. I am over 50. I have been riding for a long time. we swapped 212 onto his DB30 over the winter. It put me on my backside very quickly. Last weekend, he swapped the 97 back onto it. I know what you guys think about this engine. He loves the way it runs and it is fast enough for our...

    Man do i feel stupid and lucky at the same time ( graphic picture )

    My heads just not in the game. Taking so much strain at work that i lapse in concentration. We needed to scrape some bark of timber and my bright idea was a die geinder with a router blade. Was working great till it bit into the wood and then decided my hand looked tasty. Man bad things...

    New guy in PA

    Hey guys, new member here. Can't say exactly how it happened, but some time in the last few weeks I got bit pretty hard by the mini bike bug! Some friends had them "back in the day", and I always enjoyed riding whenever they'd let me, but my parents would never let me have my own! Don't have...
