Nice looking little bike! It'd be great for campground hopping or trail riding for kids. At 6'3" and 270+lbs, it might be a tad small for me. I've got a little Honda XL100 and I suspect I look like a circus bear on a tricycle when I ride it.

It's minus 41 here with the wind chill - tough market for outdoor equipment, even snow mobiles.

Start puttin' your way around the campground in the spring with a for sale sign on it and I expect it'd be sold pretty quick.

Hang in there.

iam 6ft 1 255 ish most likely alot more....and rde it easily with my son in front of me until he was 9/10(because he was afraid of it back then).
its not hole shot bike but on pavement ith the 2 of us. I could hit 45+ km/hr easy. On grass prob half that speed.
Im sure one day at a drag strip it would sell quick. Its has a NOS plastic energy drink bottle attacked to it so thats good for atleast a 1/2 km per hour hour down hill with wind pushing. I will keep it if Zack doesnt get his mula for it. It lasted 33 years...another 33 should be easy as pie.
thanks for the bumps.

 The problem is that everyone wants something for nothing,and what they have is worth Gold,so my attitude is,you don't get it,which reminds me of why the guy that's had a car in a field forever rotting,maybe that's his way of saying"I'll just let it rot then"I understand these thoughts.If you can't afford to pay the price for it....you just don't get it!!!!!Or another way of saying GFUS!!Keep your kids bike,unfortuneately he may have to find another income sourse,everyone likes to think that because you're selling something,you must be desperate,your little man needs to dig in...let this experience motivate him.....WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH.......THE TOUGH GET GOING!!!!!!

Not to poo poo the car thing but have you checked into insurance for Zach? It usually starts at about $400/month. That mini bike money might be better put to use in an education fund for post secondary school. Cars are money pits for young folks. My son knows a car is out of the question for a few years yet.

as mentioned in my 1st post about wanting a 60-80 GM RWD. if he buys now and fixes her up...He has time to save for insurance. I bank on $3500-$5000 a year for insurance. As I also mentioned earlier whether you are 16,18,21 and its your 1st car and 1st insurance...the hit is just as equal despite 16 or 21. Better now to take the bullet before college/trade school. Atleast by college his rates should be bearable and he can focus on school not working to pay insurance. The first 2-5 years will all be about insurance anyway with a part time job. I have an agent working with me in getting him best rate. He will be a secondary driver until he gets his full G licence. Then he can insure his own car, his own name. I did it at 15 with my frist car. Paid eveything my own, car insurance, motors....Insurance was $1200 a year for me. I made $3.25/hr. I managed fine. Now min wage is around $8hr for students and whatever he makes cash. He doesnt smoke, drink, drugs. Cars on brain 24/7. He will be just fine.
he has $15,000 savings bond adding intrest from age 6. When he is 18/19 He will use that towards his education or save it for first time home ownership. He was MAULED by a dog and we sued. Won the case and money been collecting intrest ever since. He is NOT allowed to touch that money for anything but school or a house. He knows this.

i am sure Zack would give all the money back if he never got bit, I know I would have. 2 years of night terrors, fear of dogs and trauma didnt even come close to 15k. Zack is considering plumber/electrician. But gona major in automotive. A good apprenticeship will help him. Free rent as long as he is here. Like I said. Ill help him as much as I can.

My ins co insured my S10 (22 yrs old) however I had to email photos and a copy of the safety certificate.
