I picked up this bike over the weekend at a yard sale for $100. I bike needed nothing over than a slight chain adjustment which I have not done yet. The engine although its missing the air filter assembly , runs great. The previous owner was a gentleman in late 60s and said the bike had been sitting in his basement untouched for over 20 years. He said prior to the yard sale he flushed out the fuel system, changed the oil and installed a new carb. He said that he bought it from a guy he worked with in the early 90s. The engine is a 5hp Briggs manufactured in March of 1990, but I highly doubt that the engine is the original. The bike is currently a pinkish-red, but you can tell it was originally white. I can't find any information regarding who manufactured the frame. Let me know if you have any information regarding the manufacture/ballpark figure of when it was built.
I bought this bike so my daughter and I can go on rides together. I also posted a pic of my current bike as well.
Thanks for your time!
