Planet Minis

fatcaaat · 04-10-2009, 09:42 PM

Just picked this up for $260. Runs like new. Needs lights, harness, seat, tires, and a few odds and ends. The good news...I have everything but the lights. Bad news...I just bought another bike I didn't need. I can't stop.

Oh well. This is going to be a rider to use. Nice swap meet bike I suppose. I hate the white, so when replacing the tires, I guess I can spray the wheels silver.

Looks like a good candiate for a 49cc stamped cylinder and tb stroker with 4-speed tranny. Now that would be fantastic.

Great deal.

ducatilover · 04-10-2009, 10:08 PM

Ha ha! I like the title. You can never have too many minis though.

gstegman · 04-10-2009, 10:20 PM

Congrats and it seems to me they spawn.

RySem · 04-10-2009, 11:11 PM

Where was that listed?? I swear I saw it somewhere recently. That seat is unmistakable!

You're a sick man, fatz. Still, a bigger shed is cheaper than therapy

fatcaaat · 04-11-2009, 08:38 AM

I'm going to keep this bike simple and just do some basic upgrades to make it ridable at 50mph. New tires, rear shocks, change the fork oil, and put on the missing pieces. After that, I can decide on the motor I need.

Where did you find this CL? sweet deal I need to build a street legal mini

s_10onbagz · 04-11-2009, 09:16 AM

What type of tires will you be running? keeping the stock 10" rims?

I have a brand new set of 120/90-10's sitting here. More than likely those will make it onto this bike.

Nice find! They're like rabbits. They just breed in the garage.

So when I first started dating my now wife, I had my yellow CT70 and it was configured with the huge apehanger bars and the atc125m motor. She was perfectly fine with me having the bike because she actually liked to ride it around until she took a spill on it. After that, I built another one and she said that 2 was enough. And I said what's the big deal if I have 3 or not. Its the garage space she said, and how frustrated I get. I said I can fit all four of my 4 CT70s in the garage without isse. She wasn't convinced. But the 5th one fit right in there. Sure there isn't any room for her gardening tools and I have to move all the stuff out to get the lawnmower out, but hey, I really do ride all 6 ct70's. And I still, somehow, manage to stuff a CB750, Pitster Motard, ST90 Motard build and a xl70 racer build in there as well.

Sick bike for sure. I just found out my neighbor has a ct 70 in his garage! Its a cool bike for sure.

fatcaaat · 06-22-2009, 04:29 PM

This bike is surprisingly smooth and powerful. I am not trying to beat on it while I break it in, but 50mph in 4th gear is not a problem at all.
