Thanks for your help with this

Please let me know if you have experienced a noisy (although new) centrifugal clutch. We have a new clutch on a Predator 212 engine which we have on a Fox Campus bike. The minibike is geared low (same as original) and runs well, except that the clutch randomly makes a loud noise and tries to...

My family has had this minibike since 1968 and I am finally starting restoration over this winter. I seem to have all the parts except kickstand, rubber gaiters for the forks, and a cover plate that goes on the swing arm. The original engine is not running (broken connecting rod) so that...

Some of you wanted to see pictures of our Fox Campus bike, so here they are. We were cleaning out the barn and decided to keep the mini bike out of sentimental value, but after finding this website we are interested in restoring it. My parents bought it for us kids new in 1968, and it has...

Thanks i will look into the condition of the motor this weekend. I kid you not it is a heat index of about 115 here, so i will be moving slowly. The "real" temperature is an even 100. Regarding the donor motor, how would that work? Could you sell it to me? Maybe the new motor looks so much...

Hello I am a new member, and I need some general advice please. We have a non-operating Fox Campus bike which we have had since 1968, when I was 10 years old. We ran it for years (I have three brothers and we lived on a farm). No one can remember exactly when, but the engine lost...

Ogy - thanks for that welcome. I see we are on the same wave-length about the Campus bike. Back in the day, my cousins had Rupp’s and they were good, but it’s just that I had the Fox Campus bike first and liked it the best. BTW do you want to see original manuals, etc., or do you already have...

buckeye: "This all depends on how anal you areabout making it all original. If you look through the photos on here they will spark your memoryy of what it looked like in its glory days. If the kid shows some interest let him help with some of the work. You will get a lot of different opinions...

Putt-Putt: "So my advice would be to get a used "running" engine with a shaft size for the clutch you plan to use and minibike throttle cable "hook-up" capability; get a new correct size chain with "master link" and then bolt it on, hook it up and snap it on then you're "OFF & RUNNING" having...

KustomKartKid - thanks for sending out the bat signal to Ogy !

toomanytoys - thanks for the welcome. i agree about my nephew - he can pilot a mini bike at age 8 if it is OK with his folks. And if I know my brother it will be OK. Plus its good to have a project to work on with my brother and his kid (my kids are grown).

Bonanza Bryan - thanks for the welcome. I am getting the pictures together asap.

My (extended) family has a non-operating Fox Campus bike, which we kids got on Christmas Day in 1968, when I was 10 years old. We ran it for years (I have three brothers and we lived on a farm). It has never left the property all those years. It does not run but I am just starting a project...

mmisterbungl - thanks for the welcome to the forum. And thanks for the links to the pictures.
