This is a bike I've had for a while it's a 431 out of all of my minis this is probly my favorite to ride I have put a nos Briggs ic 5hp in it new belt rebuilt the clutch nos brake band new chains motor mount bushings new timken wheel bearings tubes original tires are in great shape new neck brass bushings nos rear fender (thanks Richard trotter) I know it's kinda sweaty looking but it's built as good as new underneath.

Nice bike!

Thanks guys and as far as top speed I'd say 25mph but the motor is 100% stock an governed but in the mountains that's plenty and it gets up to that speed quite fast also.

Nice! That's a bike that says "Ride Me!" Rather than one that says "Be careful, don't scratch the paint, Scuff the bars,or get mud on the tires"

Looks just like my 531

It is basically the same bike as a 531 the only differences I've seen between the two are the side screens on the 531 stop a few inches shorter on the bottom and some of the 530 and 531 models had the bigger wider forks with no plate for the tote gote decal and gearing differences and some had front brakes like this one also.

The differences are very hard to spot...

Well just looked at my 531, and it does not have a plate for a sticker on the front forks.
