    Usng a Harbor Freight Trailer to tow a minibike

    Hey all, I just inherited (literally) a small Harbor Freight Trailer. It currently has a wood deck measuring 49" x 40". I want to use it to haul a couple minibikes. Needs to be a cheap conversion. Have any of you done this? How do you mount your bikes on such a small platform? Steve

    Monthly Club meeting in North Florida

    Yeah baby! QA50

    Thanks for the feedback guys. From what I've learned, these things came out before the Z50's....the z50's were an improvement, though I did see a sales brochure that showed both bikes on it, so there must have been some overlap. EDIT: Nope...did some research...the QA started in 1970 and...

    Looking for carb and fenders for a Honda QA50

    Hey all, I just picked up a Honda QA50 project bike. I'm looking for a carb for it. Also looking for fenders...ideally white, since it is a 1973 model. Alternately, if you could point me to someone who sells either, I would really appreciate it. Steve
