Mini Motard-OFFICIAL THREAD

[Brayden#87]

Yer i have a Genuine Thumpstar Motard with 10" wheels are these allowed?

 

[mad man]

hmm i'm not sure but i think the 14"/12" will be best if you want the bigger looking style. Not sure if they will fit, but i think they are most likely to. Hmm you'll have to ask someone else about where to get them

 

[Fenton]

Yeh Im not too sure a 14 will fit well on the front, maybe 12/12?

 

[horde]

hey muzzard, building a motard at the moment, 120 lifan, Atomik frame, 12" front + rear, and special herbs 'n spices to the motor....

hope to be out there soon!

what are the engine classes out at south morang? I was planning to run 125 open seniors.. Assuming thats the most popular class....? Or is there an "open" class that everybody runs ?? Need to know so I know what size piston to get??

Do you have to wear full leathers to ride on the gocart track?

 

[Toerag racer]

No leathers needed mason1 its pretty laided back. But if you can get hold of a set its a good idea, i went down the other nite and was glad i had them. One dude went down in jeans and a dririder jacket and was fine so your call just rock up and have a crack its good for a giggle.

 

[Muzzard]

Contact the boys at Melbourne Mini Moto Club Inc (MMMCI) to get you sorted with classes and racing.
They have a really good bunch of blokes at the helm and are actively having regular racing for many classes.
Looking at another bike build for myself shortly too and would most likely build my own frame and source from EBay for the donor bike.

 

[Toerag racer]

hey muzzard you should try get over to the echuca go kart track tue night a few of us from bendigo are heading up. I'll be the 6 foot 6 freak riding a blue agb29. (thats right 6'6, it might look f...ed up but i'm having fun!)

Is it possible to run 17's

Alot of people in the states are running 17's on their motard-converted CR80's and other small bikes, with great success.

Does anybody know if its possible to fit 17's on some of the quality bikes we get here, and has anybody done it?

Thanks alot.

 

[eichkay]

You talking about wheel size ? , why run a 17" just buy a big bike IMO.
