hey, im new here.

[iZach]

hi all im Zach and i wanna build a mini bike so i guess i'll start a thread in the mini bike section. but anyways, im 16 and im in NY. i contacted a seller on CL about a mini bike link: http://longisland.craigslist.org/mcy/4655962110.html

he wants $85 for it, not sure if this is a good deal on not, ive got a honda GC160 5hp, i think this engine is well suited for a mini bike. but then i need all the other little things like wheels, and tires, cables, clutch, chain, etc.

he is also selling a few complete bikes, im looking at the green one in this listing: http://longisland.craigslist.org/snw/4663432888.html

he is asking $325 not sure if running, is this a good deal? i'd probably throw my honda in it anyways.

Edit: and building a frame is always an option, probably not to much money for the steel to.

Welcome to the forum, Zach

Prices vary depending on location so, what may seem like a reasonable price to some, may seem overly expensive to others...

Having said that, the prices do seem a little steep; hang around for a few others to chime on with their opinions...

That guy always has stuff on CL. Usually with the high prices. Not sure where he gets the stuff. But if he wants 85 for that frame without any wheels then mine is gonna be a good deal for what i hope to ask

Cool, so what size engine does it have? Size wheels? And if you could pm me some more pics that would be cool.
Or do you have any other bikes for sale? I really like the taco style.
