Vintage mini bike

[Khyren]

My boss gave me this thing about 2 years ago. It got me started on motorcycles all over again and I have been riding ever since. As of now, it just sits in my garage unloved with some serious power and backfiring issues. From the information that I have been able to gather, it's an early 70's Broncco with a Garelli engine. Has a clutch and 4 forward gears. If anyone knows where I can get parts for this thing, it would be greatly appreciated.

Bronco was made by benelli motorcycles. http://www.vintagecosmo.com/store/ is the only parts store for those. What is the engine size? I have a benelli mini and i had to mod it for a tecumpseh engine because parts are hard to find. there is a rebuild kit on ebay... As for the backfiring the engine probably needs to be timed and carb adjusted and just a good cleaning. good luck!

It also won't idle. You let off of it while it's running and if the rpm drops below X number, it dies. Thought it might have been the magneto.

points should be cleaned and adjusted. carb tuned and cleaned. a engine rebuild would get this thing rolling.
