How many lawsuits did they have to settle

I had the mini bike on the left in blue. It was a piece of shite.

Bonanza mini bikes were the ones the cool kids were riding. Even some of the big kids too.

In the early 70’s my dad got us the red mini bike priced here at $119.95.
My sisters and I rode that thing into the ground for years.
What memories!

Sears Catalog Page 800 usually was gone in the Camp’s outhouse by early Summer.
The only sections that missed the dingleberry reaper were the ladies lingerie & bathing suits.

Looks like they are cheaper today accounting for inflation.
Still can get essentially the same thing.

Look at those football players. How did they know these would be the preferred mode of transportation for the football players going around campus?

Those Tecumseh engines could be finiky!
Briggs were much easier crank up.

My neighbor just restored the one on the left. It’s a damn fun little machine. It was his dads in the 60s and he found it in storage.

We had 13 cousins on one side and 7 on the other, there were no less than five of these mini bikes at every family function.
No clutch, you gave the gas and they would spit/sputter for a minute then take off
Great times

Man,I wanted the go cart so bad.
We made go carts out of scrap wood and small wheels we could find.Rode them down the hills in the neighborhood.It's a wonder we survived.

I flipped one of those old two seater go karts at a friends camp when we were kids. Scrapped us up pretty good

Who didn’t have a go-kart growing up?

I'd be a hell of a rioter on one of those mini bikes.

I had one of these as a hand-me-down back in the 80's before I got a Honda CR60. It was rough as hell and the steering tube angle was real steep so it was easy to do an accidental endo when you hit a big bump. I busted my arse on that thing many of times.

I think I've ridden almost every one of those type vehicles. Fun as can be!
