Found a tag under the frame,,this one was made by "Nix engineering" in Nebraska. Can't find info. :doah: 6" Asuza rear wheels and like new tires , the front 5" wheels look old school. The thing has a HUGE 6"? band brake and I don't know where you'd find that size but the brake is in good cond.
The Briggs has old gas in it that has varnished.
The weird thing is the foot controls are are the end of each side of the frame but the steering is to the left. The fiberglass seat is too tight for my ass. :doah: I'll have to move the steering to make it comfy.
The guy wasn't into mini's and karts but said he had a mini so I took quicky look and told him he had a Bonanza that was kinda rare. He's going to train his little kids on it. :doah: Looked to have had a 3.5 tec on it but didn't have the stock wheels and fenders, the color was blue and looked like original paint . Took me awhile to figure the spring forks but I believe it's this one.

maybe frame was set up for left hand turn track only?is the seat to the left too?
my buddy pick up a old vintage go kart last summer and it had real roller bearings in the hubs you could take apart and grease. they where mounted on some real strong steel wheels:thumbsup: never seen anything like it before

As for greased wheels, I think I have 5 or so bikes with them and I switch them over to sealed bearings because it's such a mess! The only two I'll leave is the Troopers, it's funny because those will drip grease out the sides after riding awhile.
Azusa kart wheel
That's a front wheel for early karts.....used tapered roller bearings....Bug and
Gokart used them in the 60s and probably a lot other manufacturers. Come
to think of it, all the early azusa wheels were that setup so probably were on
the early mini bikes also until they switched over to sealed roller bearings.
I also have one mag wheel set up for real grease type bearings. i wonder if it came off a go kart?
