My Mini Bike Gang (collection)

I think this may be the first time I have actually had all my bikes in one place. I just finished rebuilding my deck and I am re-arranging my back garage and decided while most of the bikes were out already to take a some pictures of my little collection of bikes that I have built over the years. Only a couple have gotten away, but went to good friends who have sworn that they will come back to me if they ever need a new home. I have some more projects not pictured 3- 74 Z50's, 1- 71 K2 hardtail that still need to be restored so I have some more to keep me going for a while. My wife said yesterday I think you may have a problem I said I agree I don't have enough Mini's. :D:yellow70::red70::monkey:

You for sure need a bigger deck. The Grom is living on the edge!
loopiemclooperson,
I had to go and count in my back shed, But I have 6 more Z50 bikes in various conditions. If I ever finish them all I am gonna have to double row them on the Deck. LOL
Very nice Carlo!
Which is your favorite...and your favorite to ride?
kirrbby,
Tricky questions. Favorite is really tough for me, but the first little Hardtail I ever built 4th from right will always hold a special place with me as I built it with help from one of my best friends who passed away. I spent a lot of time on that little bike searching for parts and building it from basically just a frame,. I still get that one out a lot as it is really fun to ride with the little 108cc engine. The little 1980 Z50R bike 5th from right is the first bike I ever built, I owned it as a teenager sold it and got it back years later It has a 140 with ported head cam and VM26 carb. It is a little rocket and I have been over 70mph on it. I will be doing some small upgrades to that one soon.

Favorite to ride would have to be the latest CT I built. The silver& black CT really is a good riding bike. I think the combo of tall bars, quality front forks and rear shocks make the bike refined and more adult friendly. It would be the bike I would take if I ever decided to go on a long ride. I do love all these little bikes as I have spent quite a bit of time on all of them.
