Thump said:That thing actually runs. I talked to the owner of it, no BS. He tells me it is a 100cc motor in an 80cc chassis with a 125cc expansion chamber. This guy is about 5' 3" and 275 lbs. and hairy like a gorilla. I kid you not. He tells me that is was "frozeupsolid" but his buddy took the spark plug out and poured blue mearl (whatever the hell that it) into it and let it sit for a few days. Unfortunately it still would not kick over so they decide to "dragstartit" behind a pick-up just to break the motor loose. He says it was the damnedist thing, it skidded for a little bit then burrrrrr, the motor started churning and spitting blue mearl everywhere. "They throwed the spark plug in it and it fired right up".
He says it is "not powereful enough to buck him but it has some serious power". Even asked if I wanted to ride it, to which I declined.
This was the first ever 3-stroke motorcycle BTW. Serious forward thinking.
2-Strokes 4-ever said:My first bike,a Taco minibike....and I was "the nuts." In the late 60's, early 70's, I was the talk of the town. Suspension front AND REAR, 5 horse Briggs w/ governor removed, high performance cast-iron plumbing straight pipe, a WORKING drum brake AND throttle cable, and, HOLD ONTO YOUR CHAIR .......a JACKSHAFT! I later moved the rear shocks forward at the swingarm. Until today, I felt "full factory".......now I'm crushed.
