    Rupp mini go joe

    Does anyone have any pictures of a Rupp mini go with the correct engine and gas tank. I read in the book that it should have a Tecumseh 3.5 hp engine, however I have read somewhere that the early ones came with a Clinton engine. This would make some sense as I have a Rupp Herbie go kart that did...

    Newbie mini bike guy with questions

    Hello all, I'm contemplating buying a mini bike for restoration or buying a brand new kit as a winter project for me and my sons to work on together. Vintage bikes seem to bring more money than the readily available new kits that I'm finding. Are there any pros or cons to buying a new kit...

    First Mini Bike

    Never owned a mini bike before. Rode one a little as a kid. Rebuilt an old vertical shaft Briggs on my lawn mower, and got kind of hooked on small engines. Ended up getting some free pipe from work and an Briggs Intek from Craigslist from a broken power washer and slowly the dream is...

    This is just the way I found it, I have way too many projects ahead of this so I am selling it. I believe it to be a Heath GT 101 (Hilltopper)? It has a Tecumseh h50 engine that turns freely, however the guy before me put the air gun on the flywheel nut and broke the threaded end of the...

    Foremost Mini Bike Resurrection (Bird/JCPenny/Sears)

    I recently picked up this mini bike frame for 30 bucks at a local motorcycle swap meet. It has issues, mainly the front fork is bent beyond repair. The main frame is straight but the kickstand is bent up, missing the scrub brake, the front fender mount missing, the rear one broken, and there is...

    Jumping in. (back into Mini Bikes/scooters since I was 14.)

    Any hoo, I live between Rockford and Chicago Illinois. My first mini bike was a yellow Sears 4hp with 6" wheels and scrub brake. Later I picked up a rolling chassis with 4" wheels. Forward many decades, and I recently picked up a Bremer Mini scoot and recently a Doodle Bug.

    Marzocchi Mini Bike Forks For Sale!

    I have a set of Marzocchi mini bike forks for sale. These were sold to me as part of a Taco ST-100 by a disreputable member here, when they were not the proper forks for that frame. They would likely fit a mini cycle better, due to their overall length & length of the steering head tube...
