hey folks, i just recently joined OldMiniBikes, and am loving it! this is a great site to browse in my spare time or to get ideas and pointers!
well back to my project! i recently aquired a 70's Sensation Mike Bike. the previous owner had painted over the ugly green with a red paint, but didnt sand down the original coat so it was starting to flake. i also got an early 2000's 5hp Briggs and Stratton that i put on it! after sanding down the frame, putting some primer on, and then the silver top coat, i was in business! the 5hp reall goes! my neighbor has one of those baja warriors with the 6.5, and my Mike Bike whooped its butt in a street race!!! gotta love american made!!!!
i will try to post some pictures, still trying to figure out the site!! :wink:
