When I was a kid we used to see those and another made by Honda as well. I want to say late 60's, they were pretty quick if I remember right...

I had one myself as a kid, great for the desert and running around, but we had to use ours for work when we irrigated citrus, olive and pistachio groves by pulling the hoses and sprinkler sets around.

Hi guys, new to the forums, first post, but been lurking for ages ::)

Anyways, I'm here in Ireland. I've a big interest in electric quads so I thought I'd dip in here and have a look. When I saw this topic, I said I'd contribute.

There's a Scottish company that makes a great 2-wheel little tractor. its called an Ecorider http://www.ecorider.com . There's also the US-made Rokon http://www.Rokon.com. Both of which are sh1t-tough. That monkey bike is a BARGAIN! at $90 but just letting you guys know that there's some serious 2-wheel atv hardware out there! ps having imported Chinese electric quads, and failed miserably because of sh1t product, let me wholeheartedly recommend the original USA-made Gorilla by Rick Doran which I shoulda gone with,http://www.doranev.com and also the GEO atv http://www.geoquad.it from Italy but also from EVU Fargo Stateside. Expensive, but they're the real deal.

A really impressive looking one was the "Buffalo Minibike". It had a 10 hp motor and big meats.

Heathkit had the "Boonie Bike"

There were many, many mini's manufactured in the past.

That Suzuki is sweet!

Yep! I still have a Phillips head scar on my leg from the Honda CT-70 I had as a kid. Top speed for it was 45 mph with two kids on it.

A kid next door had a Suzuki like the one above, but it was blue, maybe it was 50 or 70cc.

Ever see a Rokon Trailbreaker? It's a two wheel drive bike.

Yes, the Rokon trailbraker is nice. Two wheel drive, no problem with 60 degree slopes, you can fill the wheels with extra gass or water. Its about $6000 and there many options.
