Hello all,
Been readding and watching videos on youtube about mini bikes for about a year and finally took the plunge. 80 dollars later I own a pretty beat up Dirt Bug.
Still deciding a lot on the build, I'm not sure what direction to take. Definitely want to go with a Predator 212. I'm not sure if I want to go with a truck bed liner paint job (like a rat/survival motorcycle), or something nicer like a metallic orange. The metal is in good shape with only surface rust as far as I can tell.ha
As far as riding, I want to go with an all around set up until I figure out what I use it for... Sorry I'm so vauge! Lots of reading to do.ha
Anywho, little bit about myself, had a motorcycle for a daily driver for 4 years-96 Suzuki bandit 600. Grew up working on cars, so I have moderate mechanical abilities, but no experience welding. Anywho, looking forward to learning more about this rad hobby. I'm planning on disassembling this weekend, and reading a lot in the next few weeks. Let me know if you have any suggestions or anything you would redo on your own builds! I will be using the search bar I promise!
