First off Welcome to OldMiniBikes


Man thats a nice looking ride that would be cool to restore and ride:thumbsup: . Can I get more pictures of it as I would like to clone it for my personal use . You dont see many cool old bikes like that around here in the states .


People should see it for the beauty it is no matter what section it is in Thanks for posting

I am not much of a authority on mini bikes. But that is the first one of these I have seen. There have been a couple of bikes on here that nobody can find any info on. I think this one might be another. I would check around over there, might find a hot rod board to post it or an old bicycle board. Lot of those guys are into mini bikes.

Hi All i will put more photos on as soon as im able to take some
thank,s for all your input so far .all i can add is it was not a one off as the parts used
are so good and would have cost a lot of money back in the day

Minibikes were a Cottage Industry and many come off looking homemade, many were hand built and some better than others. I see some solid engineering there and the engine mount lends itself to an odd mill powering it. I think it is what you beleive it to be diamond lee, I cannot wait till you hear back from the club. I like the unusual and anything art deco in styling qualifies as that. I plan to build a series of square tube bikes like the old HoundDog and HotDog minibikes once I'm through my projects. I may stop to build a prototype now that I found a stick of 1" square tubing out back, it's 20ft. long so it will do. Some squared swoopy pontoon fenders on my 1st one would be sweet. I love this bike of yours and commented on it in the freak bike thread, yeah it's in there.:laugh:
