Best swap meets for mini bikes?

[Tommy2]

I never seem to find out about these things until afterwards when I stumble upon a Youtube video showing an awesome mini bike swap meet where I would have bought a bunch of stuff lol.

I've already Google searched a bunch, and it seems hard to find automotive swap meets in general. I know swap meets aren't what they used to be due to the internet. I just prefer in person swap meets over Craigslist/Marketplace.

I would be willing to drive out of state with a truck/trailer and stay in a hotel a day, (make a trip of it) etc. for a decent sized swap meet.

It's getting late in the year, so, unless you are from the warmer climes, your chances this year are running out. That said, in my many years of messing with antique motorcycles, I always saw minis at the events. Here is a list of the upcoming events for the rest of the year. Events - The Antique Motorcycle Club of America

Check out the schedules for car shows too. Swap meets are not normally held on their own. They are a side show for something else.

You should add your location for best results

For me, I enjoy them all. I tend to get a better deal at motorcycle/car events rather than Minibike specific meets. I go to anything within a couple hours away, even if just a run through, as apposed to internet hunting. There is always something to learn or something I’ve never seen, before. And skip the hotel. The multi day ones usually let you camp on-site. Best way to meet like-minded folks and control costs. Seems there’s something almost every weekend around the NJ/PA/DE area. Good luck.

I know one of the biggest (if not the biggest) auto swap meets is in Hershey PA. Has anyone been to that one?

Englishtown NJ fall swap meet is the 22 23 24 of this month not as good usually as the spring one but still worth the trip if your in the neighborhood. It's a bit of everything car, bikes all kinds of gearhead stuff. I go to sell Jeep parts but wind up buying too. lol I've been to the Hershey PA meet it's huge , I have friends in Boilling springs pa so I go stay with them it's not far from there. There's a good one in York pa in January I believe, the Potamic ridres vintage meet lots of real cool old stuff too.
