Re: Minibikes, Ya'll Have One Growing Up?
My list is over 20 bikes long, but the first mini bike was a Rupp TT500 Roadster with a 2 speed chain drive and the second one was a Rupp Roadster with a torque converter. After that was a string of SL70's, SL100, SL125, etc

Closest thing I had was a Schwinn 3 speed. Tried a motorcycle once and crashed. Never tried again.

Re: Minibikes, Ya'll Have One Growing Up?
My dad and I built my first mini bike.
He made the frame from electrical conduit.
It was light but weak.
I really had a great time with that thing.
I next bought a Honda 50 motorcycle.
Had a great time getting into trouble with that baby.

My minibike came from the Farm and Ranch store. It could not beat my brothers Rupp, That is till I found the governer arm on the carberator witch put about 800 more rpms on the engine.
I smoked that rupp till the chain broke and wrapped around my 3 fingers ..Yup still have the scares
