Bayarea, Here are a couple of pics of the kickstand area you were asking about. Hope they help. Looks fairly similar from what I can see. Quite an undertaking but will be worth it. Gotta love that whitewall!!!!!!!! Need any other pics from a straight bar just let me know.

Hi guys, Great thread. Bay area, is that the chicken coop Powell? My clutch assy. appears to me to be just like the 117-5 bike. Minus the chrome of course. I have no belt so would be very interested to have the number off the belt in the picture. About those early 3 then 2 digit...

Oh man, I could have really used that spark arrestor. Didn't even see the auction.

I am going to all old mini's and am getting rid of this type of stuff. Have a DB with harbor freight engine. Has after market exhaust header. Its threaded and you can unscrew the muffler with your hand.:wink: Go kart air filter. Has one of those bicycle type gas tanks. It has a pretty good...

Randy I thought they might be alike since they both have the straight bars and are early models. When you get to your shop, get the serial number off the top of the bar and we will compare them to see if they are close to the same. Dave
