Hey all,
I don't think I've posted for a year. I've dusted off the Manco Streaker I bought about a year ago and now my oldest kid is big enough to drive it. So I started scanning Craigslist for another minibike.
Well, an ad popped up for a Mini Baja for a steal, so I snagged it. This is the 5.5 HP version with the headlight and fake tank. The guy told me he had 10 responses to his ad in 5 hours.
Anyway, it needs some work, but the former owner bought the parts. The only thing he didn't have that the bike really needed was a new headlight assembly. I have all the wiring, but the one I have is just whipped.
So, I know that I can buy a new headlight assembly for $40, but I was thinking for that price, there might be something aftermarket that is stouter. So can anyone make a recommendation? Something, hopefully metal, that will bolt right one? I guess I could splice the wiring with the existing wiring. Any pix of this new "transplant"?
Thanks,
Steve
