Hello, I am Gampy and I am new to this great forum. I have never owned a mini bike before. I always like to keep a project or two going. I think this might be one and also just might end in something that some of my grandchildren will enjoy. I live on a tree farm in central Mississippi and have a pretty nice farm shop that draws me to it like a magnet (nice to me anyway).
To avoid him getting another penalty from the city I was helping a friend remove junk that has accumulated in his yard. This junk included 6 riding lawn mowers which I hauled off. This bike was located partially under one of those mowers. I got it also. It was covered with mud, weeds and vines. The pictures were taken after two attacks by the pressure washer. It doesn’t have any tag, plate, lettering or any identifying marks anywhere on it. The engine is locked-up the chains and clutch are rust welded, the tires are flat etc. But it does look so much better after my vine removal and cleanup. I have spent several hours looking through pictures on this forum and couldn’t find any with this double chain configuration. The double chain is only to make the engine work on a frame that is narrower than the engine. The jack-shaft offers no mechanical or speed advantage as both sprockets have the same number of teeth. I would like to know what brand it is or to identify it. I thought that some of you pros might know.
I have really enjoyed my time on the forum. A fun place to poke around with lots of cool pictures.
Anybody know anything about it? Thanks in advance
