How much do you sell those parts for? How much for a minibike frame?

.....The frames you see in the rear of my yard are mostly missing the front forks because people always seem to hit something to stop instead of just applying the brakes.
....I sell those frame parts for either $10 or $20 depending on what brand they are. Nova's/Stellar/Chris Cycle/Fox/and Rupp go cheap because here in California there's no interest in them.
....I tried the "Ship me a frame" thing, it wasn't fun, so now I just sell local.

You can see more of my stuff on my Photobucket album at:

What are your methods of gathering parts?

What is in your personnel stash that is not for sale?

If you have some of your own finished karts and mini bikes can you post some pics?

What is the hottest mini bike in Cali? Can you name a few holy grails?

Do you do any of the Italian pedal type Mopeds?

Simply amazing.

Also you may consider Greyhound Shipping. Just take the frame to the bus depot and drop off. It is cheap and no packing and they just toss under a buss.

......Pick up at my house would get you the cheap $20 or less price, because I don't have to do anything but open my gate and take the money.

......If I was to consider shipping a frame that price would more than double and might possibly triple. Add in my cost of gas to drive across town and then the shipping cost and I think the cost would pretty much end up about a hundred or so.
That's why I have them for local pick up.

......Mostly local Car and Cycle Swapmeets.

>What is in your personnel stash that is not for sale?
.....I have no personal stash, I'm 59, everything goes.

>If you have some of your own finished karts and mini bikes can you post some pics?
.....I can't post pictures due to the site saying my files are too big,
but my own Yellow Lil' Indian minibike is on my YouTube videos.

>What is the hottest mini bike in Cali? Can you name a few holy grails?
......I'm not into Fancy or Fast. That doesn't impress me. A smile from a rider riding beside me is hot.

>Do you do any of the Italian pedal type Mopeds?
......No, Never have.

>Also you may consider Greyhound Shipping. Just take the frame to the bus depot and drop off. It is cheap and no packing and they just toss under a buss.
......I would never ship without using a cardboard box and packing. I've seen what people do to awkward items.
