The mud will come. Just don't like the idea of tearing up the back yard more
than I have to. I do plan a trip to some trails real soon. This cold has still got me good.

bike looks exactly like the two I have been riding with the past two days. little things got some zip too. took em out on the nice flat pasture and paced em with my buddy's pickup. clocked them at 52mph and my 200cc at 62mph. lot faster than I thought they would go.

yurkia - yeah these little bike will definitely scoot.
My guess as to how fast this one will go would be around 40-45mph? That's with my 175lbs aboard. I was quite suprised when I got the kids 125's as I was kinda scared letting them ride them at first. I was afraid they would grab a handful of throttle and run into something. I am really pleased to have gotten this one sorted out for under $400. I think I have just as much, if not more fun on this thing than I do the GY. I want to find another one cheap so I can get out with my son. Sure wish I had kept the 125's instead of trading them for a car. Live and learn...

That would be cool of you. Although, I don't think I would want to fight to
be able to ride with ya... laughs.

Well being unemployed and fighting to keep food on the table.
I decided to sell the pit bike. I hated to do so, but pretty much didn't have a choice. So after all the time and money I put into this thing it is sad to say it is gone. The new owner seemed real happy to buy it. I think it may have been his first bike? I know he will have a ton of fun riding it as did I...

Understand completely Kato. I think my next project will be
an old school mini bike. I have a 4 horse Tecumseh that will fit nicely into an old frame. I may even buy some tubing and fabricate my own. Time will tell...

Since I already have the 125cc lifan and a real nice DR250 rolling chassis I may have to get creative with those.
I think it will work. Allen

I think I can build some motor mounts and get it mounted up in the frame.
Gear it down so that I can put put on the trails with the kiddies. Allen
