Re: Mini bike

You did a nice job. Love the color and the seat. What engine did you put in there?

Re: Mini bike

It's a 6.5 go Dupor "clone". It's a copy of a Honda GX200. I have done a few mods and it runs really good.

Re: Mini bike

hey maybe you know the answer, I have the preditor which also claims to be a honda gx200 clone, and claims to be a 6.5. but I actually have a honda gx200 which looks the same but its only a 5.5hp

Re: Mini bike

To the best of my knowledge the Honda gx160 was 5.5 hp. Pretty much the same motor but less displacement. I'll ask my buddy next time I talk to him to verify this info.
