Nice bike. Does the Clinton run?
Use the Clinton...Use the Clinton...
Trash the Briggs...Trash the Briggs...
Clinton 2 cycles was all anybody had on a mini bike or gokart when I was growing up.
The A-400 I own has been completely rebuilt.
I also have a model 500 (about 20 original hours on it) which looks identical to the A-400 and the A-490.

yea it runs,but could do with a cleaning haha.

im gonna run the briggs into the ground on it before i put the clitnon on it,if i even do.
i rode my other mini bike to its DEATH,rode it so much that the 5hp briggs developed a huge valve problem,and very low compression,etc etc haha

i like the mini bikes to start up n cruise to the friends house etc.
im also INFACTUATED with small engines haha.
