What's a Remington?? And is that bike called a Bantam? Or is that just what Wayne called it?

some guy called it a bantam,like the old little car of the 30rs-early 1940s
the power plant is a remington tiny chainsaw,they start easy/run smooth
some guys would call it A TOM THUM,but the tom thum as far as i know
was never a complet bike, they were built with plans from poplar mech-scince
this one was over built,as far as materal gos,it got the best put on,so as to
last a liftime.:smile::smile:

So....it's a home-built MiniBike?

 

[Randy]

yes, just hand bent, no plans or bender, just folded over. it just has a sticker. The engine is the complete saw, less bar. Sprocket mounted to crank spins a j/s with the clutch. A little crud but fun-ctional.

How about some better pics.
