Got some pictures from Rick. He got her pulled apart. The threads on the crank are not good. Rick is going to see what his shop guy can do. Lets hope his guy can help, that crank is not easy to come by. Here are the pictures.

Just talked to minibikepaul what a great guy. He invited me down to fun day. I did not know we had a mini bike get together on this side of the states. Anyway I am going to minibikepaul.com and get my decals.

I just talked to the sandblaster guy. I'm dropping off the mini tomorrow, he said 45 to 75 dollars. I am guessing $75.00 we all know the right part or work always cost more.
I am stopping by the powder coater on my way to the sandblaster to pick a color. I don't know what color yet the wife is going to meet me at the powder coaters to pick the color. She does like a couple of the greens you guys showed us.

Hi Loren I thought you might be watching. Hey everyone I just dropped off the mini at the sandblaster. They said it would be ready Monday $50.00. Before I dropped the mini off at the sandblasters we stopped by the powder coaters. They want $100.00, I'm good with that. $150.00 blasted and powder coated seems like a heck of a deal to me what do you think? Keri asked me to let her pick out her color without input from me. So the mini is going to be a darker green in a textured crinkled type finish. I'm not sure about ether the green or the finish. When we left the powder coater Keri seemed very happy with her choice. How does that go when Keri's happy we are all happy. LOL The new NOS kill light switch showed up today. Here is a picture.

Your powder guy doesn't do all of it in his shop??
Most pc guys do all the prep as part of the powder deal.:shrug:

Should look great when finished. :thumbsup:

Hey buckeye the first place I went to wanted $250.00 to do both. I checked around and saved $100.00 and they are about 2 blocks apart. :smile:
