Speedway Scorpion

[gumpit]

Is there anything desirable about this? It is in my town and I can swoop in and buy it at the end. Unless someone here is bidding on it and doesn't want me to. Also if someone buys it and needs me to pick it up and store it safely at my house I could do that also. Early 1970?s Vintage Speedway Scorpion Minibike RARE | eBay

Very nice of you to offer. :thumbsup:

I have a couple and really like them. I may take you up on your offer if the price does not go much higher.

The clutch cover and lightning coil HS40 are very desirable. The only thing really missing is the seat cover and foam.

Gumpit let me know if you are going to bid on it at the current price it is a deal. seat cover available on ebay is a good quality repop. If you are not going to bid on it I will. \

Go for it. Like I said. I can store it here until someone can come and pick it up. No matter where in the town it is I can be there in about 5 minutes...lol

Is the little flap on the back (of the ebay seat) correct for the Speedway?
I have an old OEM seat (in bad shape) that doesn't have the flap.
Not sure if they had different versions of them or not depending on the frame style.

Thanks

Don't know as mine had no cover so I did not know what the original was but it was same frame back as above it did not have the turn up some of them have. I just tucked it under the foam block I made and snapped on the snaps and it looks great.

The NOS one I got from ATKRIDER didn't have that flap on it. It went on my Scarab.

72' and I repainted it blue as close as they could match it at the automotive store. ATKRIDER has the paint codes for Speedway. I lost the paint code due to deleting emails in bunches. :doah:
