That's a speedway. Looks pretty complete and in decent shape for an easy restore. All you need is a brand spankin new seat which kbsball can make for you. I can get you brand new stickers when we determine which model it is. I say buy it! I would. I paid $75 for my speedway scorpion frame and it had no engine or wheels.

Or you could try flipping the back wheel so the chain is on the other side....Ogy

That speedway has a kind of Jackshaft on it, the motor goes that way, useing 2 chains, if you don't want to use the jackshaft then you turn the motor around, if it will work, ie chain clearence and all, good price as others have said, for sure if it was closer to me, I'd of gotten it already, pieced it together and put it up for sale, for more money!!!

[jimh]

You should have a jackshaft. The engine drives one the sprocket on the left end and asprocket on the right end drives the wheel. Think about it. If you turned the engine around, wouldn't you go backwards.

mike04,is it worth $100:doah:
if the tecumseh motor is the correct year and type,for example hs-35,hs-40 then i say go get it:thumbsup:
if that bike was sold in pieces on ebay$$$:doah:. i am not a big fan on people selling there minibike in peices just to make a extra buck or two:doah: that bike looks like it could still be restore real nice:thumbsup: the only hard part to find is the chain cover. you can still find them on ebay. make sure you ask him if he has any other parts(like the cover):thumbsup:
i really don't care to reply back on someone who just wants to restore something and then try to make a buck:doah: SO just keep it ok:smile: and don't sell your other bike. you just got the minibike bug. you need to just get about 5or6 more then you will be ok..............................who cares what you wife said's.......its you hobby. it's not like your going out to the bar and pissing it away
