trail Blazer

[Fat Tire Trader]

Hello,
I just joined the site. On Sunday evening, I bought this trail Blazer. I think it is the Japanese version. I'd like to get some lights for it, maybe a front fender. I have been reading a lot of threads about them and looking at old ads. Does anyone know if the rack is original.
Thanks,
Chris

Yes you are correct on the Japanese version. I don’t think the rack is original also you could put a front fender on it but the never came with them originally.

Thanks, maybe I'll pass on fender then. Does anyone know how smoothly they should shift?

 

[Davis]

You don’t shift them on the fly.

Welcome to the minibike madness. Nice bike.

Basically we don't shift while bike is moving. It will grind you off the seat.
At a stop they slide Low Hi very nicely.

we have 2 Blazers 3hp smaller version
they are a wonderful ride to cruise the campsites or fly dirt roads...

Hi Richard, Do you have scans of the rest of the manual?
Does anyone have a good picture of the original head light? Was the light made in Japan?
Thanks,
Chris
