    New to OldMiniBikes, Barn Find VT-1012

    My 94 year old neighbor sold me his old hunting bike. He is the original owner and stopped riding it in the mid 90's due to hip replacement surgery. It was stored in an old metal shed for the last 20 years or so. I had no idea what it was until did some research on this forum. (Thank You OldMiniBikes!)...

    Where to find used Yanmar diesel clones?

    I have been looking around online for a Yanmar L-100 diesel engine clone, aka a Chinese "186F" or similar and I'm surprised at how hard they are to find. New ones aren't that plentiful, either, and I think real Yanmars may actually be easier to source. I can get clones new for $200/ea.....in...

    Picked this MTD frame up at the scrapyard yesterday on my way home from work. Pretty much the only good things on it are the shocks, seat pan and rear wheel/brake assembly.

    Where can I find a Harbor Freight coupon?

    After being on this forum for a few days now, I think I'm hooked. I hear you all talking about the Harbor Freight 6.5hp engines for $99. I see that they are actually closer to $170. I've heard a few of you mention a $99 coupon. Are these still out there and where can I find one? Thanks, Bob

    Craigslist find

    Wondering if some of you guys could help me determine the make/model of this bike. At the price, I'd be a fool not to pick it up. But I'd still like to know a little about it.
