Title: My new ride
Post by: Nick on November 03, 2008, 10:28:36 AM
i picked this up this weeknd for a super low price. 20bucks!!! from the same buddy i'm picking the banshee up from. He is bringing that back after this weekend when he goes deer hunting.

I had to pick up an air cleaner/filter, throttle cable and i put a new muffler on it.
muffler was 2.99
air/cleaner 5.99
twist throttle/cable/grips-23.00- they are "cherry" brand 60's original grips,brand new. pretty sweet.  I don't know what size engine this is, but i'm looking for a 10hp maybe and then powdercoat the frame black, and re cover the seat.
I don't know what kind of mini bike it is either, by what i found on the internet it may be a RuPP or a Doodle bug, if anyone knows let me know.
The reason i think rupp is the brake set up is the same on some of theirs.

I had a mini bike once upon a time with a lawn mower engine, that thing was so heavy! But it was fun.
