Vintage minibikes

Tom,

Here's one that's pretty good. I'll take a few pics of the clamp and post them here in just a little while.

Here's a link to a thread I started here on the HAMB to show off this little gem :http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=304396

EDIT: More pics of the clamp.

 

cool bikes here
gotta few too, taco-22 and others
looking for a frejoli or quarterhorse frame or ?

 

here's a pic of our toys for tots run:

 

My wife painted this on the front of our daughters mini bike.

 

That thing is cool as shit! I want one>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

Here's mine. Some hack went at it with a hot knife and birdshit welds. It's savable though.

 

And a brochure ad:

 

Here's one of mine. paid 50 bucks for the frame & fork and the rear wheel. Made he seat myself, rattlecan whitewall in the front.

 

im fixing this up right now. Its a cat hustler i took some rake out of it

 

My little brother got a Rupp from his grand-mother-in-law for free. He got it running for our Halloween party, dressed up like "Dumb and Dumber", and rode it 5 miles to our house! He even had the brief case, it was the best, I'll see if I can find some pics. By the way he's 6'8"!

 

C'mon Guys, Plan on bringing that mini to the Lonestar Round-up for some elbow rubbing dirt track racing... Complete with Trophy girls...

 

I picked up this artic cat mini bike this fall, the whole family has been having a blast driving it. The original motor has been replaced with a bit more power.

 

does this count?
anybody know who this guy is?















good girls go to heaven
bad girls go backstage

 

c'mon man...

That could ONLY be

ROY ORBISON.

 

INJUNTOM, this was a great idea for a thread. Cool thread to look at. I don't have an old mini bike but I have a newer one that's a blast. A Mini Bike Social Group was created if anybody are interested in joining.

 

give that man a beer

 

You mean that isn't a young Larry Bud??

 

My legs got too bad to roam the big local car swaps we have so I started building minibikes. I buy and sell a lot of them now, they're real popular around the midwest. I started with the black chopper and the red one. The blue one came and went, as did the green one. There are and have been others ...

 

No ,its cory feldman

 

"'MARLON""Im going to sit in the Land Rover and have another Sherry while Jim jumps out and throws a net over the momma Lion and captures the cubs

 

Great thread! This is bringing back a lot of memories. My brother got a metal flake blue Scat Cat for Christmas one year when we were little. That thing was a BLAST! Now I gotta build one. Damn you all for making me start another project I can't afford. haha.

 

this one really caught my eye ! belongs to a HAMBER !!!!!!! love it ... steve

Good going Buckle! The day I got mine, he wiped it out.
No Brakes + No Killswitch = Buckle

This might be pushing the limits of a minibike, looks street legal. ....headlight tester

 

Great thread... Where would we be without our mini bike experiences. I need to get another one.

 

Yup! I'm hooked again! I'll be scouring the swap meets around here in '09. My son's 13 & one of these would be a perfect father-son project.
