Hey Guys
My name is Joe, I live in the Green Swamp area of Florida I usually work on old British motorcycles,

I've got a neighbors kid who likes to come over and get under my feet, hand me the wrong size wrench and ask me questions ,.. which is okay with me. So, I Know the kid will never ride one of the bikes I fix so I did a quick search on craigslist and found a guy selling a bunch of mini bike parts to put something together for the kid to ride,.. and work on while I have to do my thing.

I was told by the guy it was a '69 Cat and it was supposed to have a "springer" type front end there's a piece of electrical conduit where the springs should be ... Well, I guess this is where I start a build a build thread because I've got tons of questions..

Thanks guys IMG_mb1.jpg IMG_mb2.jpg

That's a nice looking build you have there, the closest thing to a mini cycle I put together was a little 1958 Triumph Tina scooter for the wifey.. she wrecked it and now she's scared of it
