Vehicle Detail
Up for auction is a vintage 40+ year old Bonanza Mini Bike, believe it is the BC 1000 from the late 60's early 70's era. We tore the bike down and built it back up to what you see now. Bike was media blasted and professionally painted with Diamont Bright Blue Pearl Base Coat Clear Coat Automotive Paint. The bike received a fresh vintage West Bend 580 two stroke kart engine. The engine has double the RPM range of your normal 4 stroke Briggs or Tecumseh type engines. As a result, the bike is not really meant for a child but instead for an adult or collector. The engine has new piston, rings as well as all new seals and gaskets. The engine also has a brand new West Bend crankshaft that is designed to take the larger .75" clutch. A nice performance West Bend reed box with new reeds, nice aluminum West Bend engine mount and West Bend exhaust. A very healthy ignition system and the carb just received a fresh kit. The carb is very easy to adjust, one screw for low speed and the other screw for high speed if you need to tinker with it for your altitude. Many other new parts went it to this classic mini bike: gas tank and petcock, aluminum throttle bracket, cable, grips, throttle, clutch & chains, jack shaft, shaft sprockets. As well as all new heavy duty wheel bearings, shaft bearings, tires, tubes, fork triple tree bushings. A nice new Bonanza professionally made seat and more. The bike also has the nice 6" vintage wheels of that era. As this is a two stroke it will require a gas and oil mix. Comes with nice Gem Velocity Stack (really nice if you show the bike) and a hard to find vintage West Bend Brown Air Filter.Bike starts easily, runs great and sounds awesome (see video below of bike). It is really cool to hear it pop off at idle, it may wake the neighbors but that was how they were designed back in the day. The bike only has test time on it. It takes off pretty quick and gains speed fast. The bike runs great and does not miss a beat. A really fun little ride for an adult. This is a really nice 40+ year old mini bike a beautiful example of the mini bikes of the late 60's early 70's era. Perfect for your office, man cave or taking to shows. Again a very nice rare vintage mini bike for the collector or enthusiast. We have the reserve set at a very reasonable amount for such a beautiful bike. Check out the feedbacks below regarding motorcycles we have sold on eBay over the years. The first feedback is from our most recent mini bike buyer. NOW FOR A FEW NOTES ABOUT SHIPPING, ETC. I can crate the bike if needed for shipping for an additional fee. Ebay has a terrific tool for shipping quotes and with it crated you will have that many more options to choose from in addition to the standard motorcycle shippers. We have had great luck with Allied Van Lines/Federal Companies Motorcycle transport; these folks are very courteous and professional. We have never had a problem with a bike shipped by them. The best part is they pick up the bike our location and deliver right to your door. Of course there are many other options available as well, including one we just ran across Quad Express. Of course you are always welcome to jump in to your truck and pick up the bike from us in Tucson!Winning bidder must contact us within 12 hours after close of auction with payment information and full payment must be received within 2 days of close of auction. We will send you an email right after the close of the auction with our contact information including our phone number. We prefer Bank Wire Transfer / deposit directly into our business account as it is the safest payment method for both buyer and seller. Again, you may want to check out all our feedback but especially feedbacks on our bikes so you will know you can bid with confidence. Good luck and happy bidding! As this is an old vintage bike this is an as is sale. eBay requires we select a specific option regarding a title. Of course there is no title with this bike as they never came with one, we can provide a bill of sale if requested. IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS: We welcome all international bidders and as a matter of fact have sold many of our bikes to bidders overseas.
