Any one else out there collect/ride mini bikes?
It's kinda been a hobby of mine for the last 14 years.
I don't get much free time anymore but when I do I love to tinker with them.
I have a sl70ko project bike I bought in pieces, so there is a lot I need to finish it.
Responded to an ad I seen for a runnng bike. When I got there it didn't look that good but she had another bike in pieces partially restored, so I bought that one instead, being that the running one would be a project anyway.
I'll do a little here and a little there. The body parts were already primered and ready for paint so I'll probably do ruby red for this bike... possibly a summer yellow, I already have a pristine museum quality all original Aquarius blue...thinking the red may compliment it well. I pick up a CT70 HKO in orange later today. Runs and is in good condition. May just use that one as a rider.
Lots of little projects to look forward to...
If anyone hasn't ever looked into riding or restoring minis for a hobby, I highly recommend it.
