My son bought 3 old mini bikes this is one. Yesterday he pulled this engine off a snowblower I picked out of the trash and put it on.

Nice! Congrats, and welcome to the passion.

My son and I have owned 2 of those bikes. They are plenty big enough for an adult and are one of the most comfortable bikes to ride. Their downfall is that they get kind of squirrely handling at speeds over about 25 MPH.

What is inside the head tube that wears out?

flanged bronze bushings inserted into the fork tube top and bottom.
