I put one on one of those Chinese pocket bikes for my son many years ago and painted it in Minion colors as he was real into them at the time. It was to be my entry in the build contest circa 2015. Didnt finish it in time for the contest but i still have it. It was the only engine i had that would fit that lil SOB. Its friggin FAST. Dangerously so. Haha.

I had considered trying to put it on a bike but the pull start or motor itself was stuck. Someone I knew wanted to restore it so I sold the mower to him. Haven't heard whether he has it running yet. Sometimes things are just worth saving and 70's and 80's tillers and snow blowers are cheap here in Ohio.

Oh man the tires on that thing! I would have paid some bucks for those! I REALLY need one of those Firestone power treads in 6" size to complete an "in my own mind" masterpiece!!!!
