Here are my one owners(Husband and Wife).(2) 1968 Rupp TT500 True survivors!!!! I found these bikes a few months ago, and I just squeezed in a little time here and there to give them a good cleaning in between the rest of my builds. Both bikes run strong and they ride like Cadillac's, both Rupps...

Just picked up these two go karts. Actually had to dig them out of a barn. The people said that I could have them for free but since they just lost part of their barn roof from high winds I offered them $ 50.00 which they gladly took. I don't know if they are home made or manufactured. Thought...

briggs RAPTOR for go kart,, karting jr dragster,quarter midgets?? He wants $400, not $40. :laugh:

Just finishing my 71 rupp bandit resto and the only thing I have left to do is fix the rear sprocket. 71 bandit used a different sprocket than any other rupp so there not easy to find, mine is bent just a little but Before I take a hammer to it is figured I'd ask around to see if anyone has...

Old Mini Bike

Bought this a few months ago.....Took it apart, cleaned and now it's a roller! Engine is next.

Have been working on this one for a while.Popped up on Craigs List GreenBay WI Came out of a private collection 1971 Retek Cheetah Serial # 234 All original untouched Had Don Weaver from OldMiniBikes picked it up today on the way to Reno NV

As always it took longer than expected...but I finally finished restoring my TX-3. I usually try to go with factory original colors...but I really fell in love with this copper red so I said what the heck! A few comments: The engine is an ASPERA with all NOS internals, but it's an HT40 from a...

I like the styling of the Baja Doodlebug but it seems to me that the performance from the Motovox MBX10 is better, is this true? I know nothing really of engine specs. :)

I contacted a guy who was selling a small cat roller on Craigslist this week. Told him I wanted to buy it. It still had the original brake caliper on it and looked to be in good condition. The following day I called him and said I'd have to pass on it because the engine mount holes were the...

A while back I bought a set of new Astro rims with a 60t sprocket, I had issue with it throwing the chain no matter what I tried and I was told by other OldMiniBikes members it likely isn't true on the face. Now I understand how to verify whether or not it is true with a dial indicator, but how could I...

True Honda GX390 UT2 coil. No ride time on it. Comes with resistor less MSD boot and terminal ready to plug and play. Not sure of interchange ability on other motors. $40 shipped

Well someone owed me money and gave me this moyor instead... well this briggs was on a chipper is it true it is only one speed... im starting to think it is i havent really worked on it yet someone told me it was on the forum and yes its the one with the v belt clutch

I am a new member but would like to get some advice on which manufacturer or model mini bikes make good restoration projects. Don't mind spending the money to do a proper restoration but I would like to choose a brand or models that are highly collectable.

I built two bikes last winter. One a Mustang Pony wannabe built on a Baja Warrior frame. This fall and winter I'm going the next step. This is a mustang pony wannabe that will be road legal. Built on a CSC frame with a 200cc Honda twin. Still much to do. Wiring will be a challenge. The only...

This story made my day. Oklahoma Mother, 18, Kills Intruder Breaking Into Her Home While on Phone With 911 - Yahoo! Scumbags like this intruder need to be removed from the gene pool and she took care of him. Later, Keith

Is it just me or does there seem to be an excessive amount of new members lately. I mean that's in no way a bad thing, but gee. A few more members and OldMiniBikes might fall through the Internet :laugh: Wonder if we'll ever be able to compete with facebook.

Ordered an exhaust valve for a briggs flat head 4hp. It was back ordered, so I waited a bit. Then it finally came in the mail. Got it, looks nice, but.....MADE IN Taiwan???? wow. the truth hurts, doesn't it?.
