First mini rebuild...

[Jaygets]

Hello all,
New to the forum and you folks here are full of GREAT info and really know your stuff...
I picked this old Cheeftah for $20 and started redoing it for my daughter.
Threw on a new coat of paint (her color choice) and some new shoes, new throttle set up.. just waiting for the rest of the parts to show up...
Have a 5hp briggs waiting in the basement (plenty of power for her)..
Just wanted to post a few pics and see what you all think..
A new seat is on the way (the foam you see was just for her to play on it)
Thanks agin for having a great site and the next mini I pick up is for me..LOL

Hey. Nice mini the blue paint looks great.:thumbsup:

 

[Honda70Kid]

I agree, that blue does look pretty nice. Nice Work!

I think it looks great. I also think its good to have the kids involved. I let my family vote and pick the color for the bike I am working on now.

darn spambots.....

...anyways that mini is strange looking! i wonder how it'll handle with straight up and down forks, i've never seen a mini like that!

 

[Jaygets]

Thanks everybody, I will post more pics as soon as it is done...
as far as the handling goes, we will find out... It does cruises down my hill just fine...lol I had to try it...

I like that little mini, I bet it will be fun to ride.

looks good but i would put some rake on the forks, i think they will get bent right away:hack::grind::wink:
