Im completely new to mini bikes but ive always wanted one and Finally got one sorta.... i got an old mini bike and i mean OLD mini bike and i have to restore it but i have no clue where to start. i got it from my girls moms boyfriend but from what i can tell its in good condition.

wow..... Thats a nice Bonanza you have there..It looks to be some kind of BC model :thumbsup: I would just fix up the Briggs 5 horse that is on it now.. They will usually always run again.. Plus most any lawn mower engine will be vertical crank, and won't work on a bike... You have plenty of a good start there.. :scooter:
