Hi it has been a while since I have been to this site.
And am considering starting a business manufacturing old style trail scooters,
Most everybody I know around here is very tired of the Chinese junk that has inundated our shores
And I would like some opinions about if there would be a...
I ordered the emulsion tube and the two jets from OldMiniBikes. One jet is a 36 and the other is a 37...question is: how to identify each one...or tell them apart ? Thanks
I have a 593-00 Manco Thunderbird. I paid 40$ for it from a friend, and my dad thinks it's not worth anything but scrap metal. It has a 5hp Briggs OHV motor, and it just needed a chain and carb clean, it runs but it won't idle just shuts off. Bought a chain for 16 bucks on eBay.
Is putting...
Guy in my neighborhood was selling this pocket bike frame for $30. Couldnt resist. Pretty sturdy little thing. Was electric. I need to look for a seat so hoping someone knows what the heck it is. Mounts look pretty specific.
Also, I am now in the market for a 2 cycle. Something small...
Needed a break from life today so I took a ride to the flea market. I wasn't there 5 minutes and found a mini bike:laugh: I know its a Manco but I don't know squat about them. Has a brand new predator engine. Runs pretty good.:laugh: Not that I needed another mini bike but for 200.00 I...
Well As many of you know I've been having some problems getting my Thunderbird build off bike running. While at the flea Market today I ran across a guy that had a Tec 3.5HP that he got to use on a go kart but never got around to it. So I figured maybe I could use this engine for parts or maybe...
Is there a market for repop cat wheel stars my buddy machinist dose not want to go through all the effort to make the dye just to make a couple so just wondering if there would be a interest if they started to get made
thanks joe
I know they are about impossible to find.. And pretty expensive.. If a guy could buy one with a homemade frame and nice Tri Sport fiberglass body for 4 or 500 bucks, is it worth it?
...I saw this really neat motorized bicycle. The rider told me he'd just cut an old Honda Spree scooter in half and used the business end to make the trailer, complete w/kickstand, and made a cover for it. I think he used some parts from a regular single-wheel bike trailer to build the hitch...
I have a 6.5hp Power Sport motor that I would like to put a pipe and air cleaner on it. I was wondering if there is a after market carb I can put on this thing to help tune it a little. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated..
Also, where can I get a pipe and air cleaner for it? It...
I am kinda freakin here! There are five CL ads for Tote Gotes in my area. Even ones that have been rebuilt. The highest asking price is $325!
What is going on? Last year when I started looking for a old Tote Gote. The cheapest one was a rusty frame for $250. And rebuilt ones around $750.
I...
I was given a new 2004 CHICOM 20" ballon tire'd 5.5 HP Pep Boys mini-bike. This is one of the FAT BOY type bikes.
The engine will not run unless the choke is partially left on. Since the choke is held in position by friction on the plastic air cleaned slot, it vibrates to full open or fully on...
I started off just slopping a bike together for my four year old who couldn't touch the ground on the old Wren I have. My other son is seven and complains about how bumpy the yard is, we live in the country so it's all off-road riding. And I came up with this but I wasn't quit happy with it. I...
Just wondering where I can get an aftermarket air intake and exhaust for my predator 212cc honda clone.
I want to get rid of the stock stuff so I can go ahead and rejet the thing to make a little bit more power. Not looking to go crazy and not removing the governor any time soon just trying...
Well, my family and I decided to go set up at a flea market and get rid of some unwanted items. I had no intentions of really bringing anything home but we all know how that goes when we're out and about with all kinds of goodies at your fingertips.
As my girlfriend and I were walking along...
