Hey guys,
Thanks for the fast response, Bike budy the last pic you posted is exactly the same torque converter cover, same gas tank . Mine also has front and rear disk brakes. the bike also has a jack shaft I will post pictures as I start on the bike. I will be putting a 5hp B&S electric start motor in it. I have two other bikes but they look like a standard , I will post them later. I will make a new fiberglass tank to replace the Swiss cheese one, lol
Thanks again, This is a great site and very informative with friendly members.

Here are the other bikes and the motors I plan to use in them. The one with the Harbor Freight 6.5hp ohv motor ( blue tank and motor ) has an unmolested frame so I want to keep it as period or stock as possible. The one with the B&S 16hp Vangaurd V-Twin has the frame back bone cut and missing about 2" of tubing. I plan on MOLESTING the H"ll out of!!!!! Chop, stretch, loud and proud!!. Picks to come. Btw what tubing type and wall thickness do most mini bike frames use?
I have been looking around the site at others bikes and projects and this looks like a lot of fun, I rode mini bikes as a child and they were very popular. I go to local race tracks and everybody is using everything but mini bikes as pit bikes and I think they would be great and get a lot of attention, look forward to making some new friends. Thanks Tim
