Trutest minibike New Zealand.

Hello.

Here is a pic of the minibike I recently purchased. Its runs a 3 Hp Briggs and Stratton engine which appears to be the original unit and the frame is also original 70's. The seat is off a Yamaha of some description. Ive just started to rebuild the engine and so far its looking good. Next im going to strip the frame and sort out some of the dodgy looking welds.

I don't think I've seen a front suspension setup before. (Somewhere a small block is missing a valve spring) Is it clunky at all? It looks like the top yoke would slam into the head after a bump.

Lots of people used that suspension. Cat, Lil Indian, ARCO, Cheefta, Heathkits, and probably a few more.

Hello. The rear wheel is 6 inch and the front 5 inch. Its not originally like that but it doesnt look to bad. Heres a pic of the frame minus engine.
