I'm going to give you some great advice. Get a 3 or 3.5 horse motor and no bigger for kids. Those bikes like to flip backwards with large engines. They are not good for kids, great little bikes for someone with experience tho.

Thank you sir I appreciate the help.

Thank you Marcus. Due to my frames serial number 39201 I believe it is a 70/71

Wondering if the front and rear brake calipers from a 7000 series bike are the same and if they would be the same as a rear caliper on the same year model 500. I don't have them in front of me to compare(don't have any)but figured they used the same parts on both bikes. Looking at buying a front...

Before anyone can really give you a good answer we would need a little info first. There are older bikes, newer Chinese bikes and as Strigoi said customs. What state are you in and are you planning on riding mostly off road or on pavement. Do you have a budget in mind? It can get expensive...

Maybe cup you hand over the intake port and choke off the air. I'm no engine guy so anything much more technical then that I'll leave to you.

Hard to tell from your picture but looks like a bicycle bearing to me. I've not changed any in a mini like that. Most likely when I need to do my coleman I will just replace with a bronze bushing even if I have to make it myself.

Pictures please, most of my bikes have bushings. I haven't needed to change the ones in my coleman.

Yes you can if you find the correct parts which could be harder than finding a finished engine. There are a lot of differences in the Era of engine you find, different flywheels, shrouds,ect. and I'm definitely not the one to ask about that. You should just get a basic HS40/HS50 and enjoy your...

Can't say about the kickstand since I don't have any MTD'S if you do buy a charging engine be aware of who you buy from, there are so great members on here and scammers show up about daily.
