Whatizat?

Hi folks. Any idea of what this is? Has a Pirelli tire, and some sort of Tecumseh 2-stroke engine. Is the Teke original to the bike?

might not hurt to rotate the picture so its upright. the bike looks like a bronco to me but there aren't many photos of the big wheeled models available so I couldn't tell you the model. I've seen 2 of the big wheeled broncos in person neither had an original engine.

That one was kind of a pain, at first I tried just flipping the picture but when I tried uploading it, it was still upside down. I had to crop and save it for it to come out right so here ya go!. I think that Tecumseh is a snow blower or lawnmower engine although they did make a mini bike specific engine that looked similar, the MB817.

Thanks for flipping the picture. I have to add, this minibike is tiny! The wheels are I believe only 8 inches in diameter, and the Grimeca drum brakes are teeny. The engine I think might be an AH47, it uses the standard Tecumseh magneto ignition that the 4-strokes used. There are no serial numbers on the engine, just an extremely faded balloon-style logo
