Anyone able to identify this frame?

So my buddy contacted me about a mini bike his aunt had that was going to the dump and asked if I wanted it... I of course jumped on the opportunity and he delivered me this enigma. It looks to have had stickers on the engine at some point (I assume denoting make and model) but are mostly gone. I can't seem to locate any numbers or names on the frame itself either.:shrug: The belt pulley on the opposite side says "comet industries" on it. The numbers on the top of the engine correspond to Tecumseh HS50 but it did not help identify the frame.

Luckily the engine is not locked up or anything but it looks like it's missing some things here and there. Took it in to do a potential "mad Max" themed apocalyptic minitrail style rebuild. :)

Thanks for the help in advance!

I am sorry but this is kind of gibberish to me. I have a 1978 Puch and know a little about mopeds but nothing on minibikes. This was going to be my way to introduce myself to them. Any help or knowledge is appreciated!

Thank you! I would say that looks pretty spot on! Is there any way to truly identify it as a Heald Super Bronc? Numbers somewhere i am not looking? Is there supposed to be a badge plate or something of the type?

The Puch is my 2 stroke beauty :thumbsup:

Well if your seat is hinged I think some of them came with white numbers stamped on the seat hinge. It looks like your engine is a 1975 by the engine code so If it is the correct engine it would be a 1975, but I'm no genius on the Broncs. You can go to the photo gallery on this site and look at pics and brochures of the Super Broncs. I think its a VT-5 model because the engine is a 5hp, if it was a 8hp engine I think it would be a VT-8. Make sense ?

Here you go .


Rick Chatten, is the Super Bronc guru on here, hopefully he will chime in and tell you the exacts on your bike. Good luck to you and you have a pretty nice bike there to start out with.
