well, here is my latest project, making this thing run good and go fast(for a minibike)...my friedn gave me this and it ran like crap...i cleaned the carb and put some fresh gas in it, spent an hour! adjusting the carb and it runs awesome now....my next step is shaving the head a little and kreeming and bead balsting the tank, i need anew seat cover too and clean the crusty oil crap off the motor and frame....its cool thoguh and there is one like it(in mint shape) on ebay going for 800$....i need a new belt and chain, probly get that monday or teusday....i love this little S.O.B.!

I love those rupps. My brother has 2 of them, same model as yours. Aren't they called super sports or something? good luck on your resto.
