score!

Well, I think I got a good deal on a Briggs 5hp IC engine today. I saw it on craigslist. The engine is on a Craftsman tiller that I bought for $75. Obviously a tiller does not get used very much, so I think it will be a good engine. It runs like a champ. It is a continuous speed engine, so I'll...

went for the complete intake system, and also came home with the 5hp engine that was rebuilt with piston, rings, rod and valve job! now i need to find some nice frames :detective::detective:

Gees, I'm on a roll, two scores, two Fridays in a row! :freakout: Bought this ol' '71 Honda CT70 from a pal at work for a measly $100. Some goodies are missing, everything is worn out of course, but great starting material to fix up. Now I must decide which will be first on the agenda...

NICE FIND FOR SOMEONE, TO BAD ITS NOT CLOSE TO ME Mini Bike

Some people make a Craigs List ad to sell a mini bike. Then won't answer the phone or emails for a week or so. And that's what happen this week to me! We just got back from Kingman with two more Baja's. I don't know what model these are. They both are just plain old used bikes. Bullhead

Just got some good rupp items today. A rupp roadster2 and a dealers manual. I found them posted on ebay and in the description he said also for sale localy. I sent him a message and made an offer disreguarding the fact that it was up for bidding on ebay. After a day of thinking about it he...

The neighbor guy had an old go cart over there the the steering, throttle and brake cables were all rusted stuck so I asked him for the clutch and stuff off of it.... SCORE!!! So how can I tell what model it is? Now I just need to figure out how I am going to install it and make it...

I picked up a elTigre project today and the seller kicked in some extras. The bike was dirty but polished up decent, the motor runs but needs a throttle installed and an air filter made or modified to fit (too close to the frame to bolt on the filter). The chrome was decent except the wheels...

I bought an edger last week at a local pawn shop with no intentions of using it to edge it has a nice little 3.5 briggs with a 5/8 shaft $70 and it runs great! While there I spotted a blower also with a 3.5 briggs, it is used for ventalation purposes and retails for $699! It was marked $219...

I think I just made my best purchase yet! Found a guy selling a Fox on CL so I called. Turns out he has a Desert Fox and a Rupp that's in his way as well. :ohmy: So I did what anyone here would do, I bought all 3 bikes. Here are a few pics of the Fox (thunderbolt I think). He said that the...

Found one locally for $20. Guy I bought it from said it needed rings. Compression was ~ 60 PSI. Adjusted the valves at the rockers, compression is now a cool 100 PSI. Good enough for me. All it needs is a recoil starter, and an exhaust. Now to decide what to bolt it to....... :biggrin:

My buddy and I just went and picked these up , really good deal.

Just picked up another batch of goodies. Sheesh, I kinda have the bug now. I guess I have to decide what to keep. The Rupps are a little bigger than the Arctic Cats and the Fox bikes I have. Will post pics in the morning.
