Just got one for my son. I’m 6’ 2” 200lbs and it’s quick and easy to ride for me. He is 9 and took off on it with no problems.

They are pretty fun to mess around on. Typically top out at 18-20mph stock. Should be able to pick one up on FB marketplace for a few hundred off retail. It’ll definitely make you really appreciate the suspension on your 4-wheeler!

Bought my dad one for Father's day a few years ago since his dad never let him have one. They are fun, push a 200 pounder easy and they want to be upright, they are pretty hard to wipe out on if you have ever ridden a bicycle before.

That's me. These bikes were very popular in the late 1960's and early 1970's and I always wanted one. The big department stores like Sears and Montgomery Ward sold them and I used to look at them in their catalogs.

Where, and if, did you find one in stock? Tractor Supply had some in late November, but sold out everywhere now. They're advertising a $100 off sale on the CT100, but if I have it shipped, they want $90 freight. I guess I'll just play the waiting game until they restock.....

There are none at the TS in Denham Springs. I went Sunday looking for one and they were out of stock.

Yep, also out at Gonzales, Plaquemine, and everywhere else. I bought my kid one of those Razor electric bikes, and it's just not cutting it. I figured the gasser would teach him some mechanical skills. Looking on Youtube, they hot rod those things to go 40+ mph!!

Very fun. Just got the one in the picture and was too much for my son so I got him the smaller one. He loves it and I ride the bigger one. Going to bring them the tower trax in fluker to ride soon.

Oh man that brings back the memories from 1975
Did some crazy azz stuff on one of those and have the scars to prove it.

Minibikes always make me think of this pic, which is probably still taped to the mirror of my hometown barber shop.
