The second one looks great. Just needs some bars and a motor, and maybe some springs.

allmakesmx · 12-06-2006, 04:10 PM

Got them all for $150
I am going to put the motor from the Panda (72cc big bore) in the red '79
for now. Just looking to increase the number of useable bikes in the fleet!!!!

good deal, let me know if you need any parts. I have several minis like that.

reynolds_brad · 12-06-2006, 04:29 PM

the panda is the best one out of the lot. I love my panda its a blast to ride around on.

reynolds_brad · 12-06-2006, 04:44 PM

hey if you need some new rearshocks for those bad boys i have a set off of a 98 z50j (monkeybike).

hit me up via private message if your interested.

The Panda has seen better days; a pro motocross guy owned it and I witnessed huge air performed with it before the frame bent and forks kinked.
I thought these (Pandas) were the cheap knockoffs everyone talks about?
Its junk anyhow, but I will transplant the motor & accessories onto the '79 and maybe have enough left over (extra parts came with the Panda) to get the '73 running. Maybe....

Looks like it's all worth more than $150. You got a good deal. Get as much as you can running. Then, let the modding begin!

davez · 12-06-2006, 09:06 PM

OH oh Brad, hope ya don't bend the frame on your Torque-Monsta !
