Gary, I agree. The Rupp decal isn't correct but, in my mind...      
:confusion-shrug:
those crossed winners flags seem like the perfect way to commemorate the :wh: Indy 500 Special.  :auto-checkeredflag::auto-checkeredflag::auto-driving::auto-checkeredflag::auto-checkeredflag:

I thought I recognized those decals. I had a Rupp minibike once, had a Tecky engine on it too!

Friend of mine had a Fox mini bike with the 5 horse Tin Indian.  Another friend had a Kawi 75CC bike and picked on that Tecky and challenged him to a drag race. They took off with the Kawi drawing an early lead, but the 1st guy reached down and grabbed the governor lever and it was all over. Kawi never had a chance! :lol:

That little Fox ran for quite a while. I think the bike wore out and then he just out grew it! :)

All I had was a 10 speed bike. They rode those mini bikes everywhere. I was a lot taller than them but needless to say they were a lot heavier! 252301634avatar.thumb.gif.45dd7ffc047e45

Mike they where a nice machine But they had a lot of competition. Every one made a sled in those days. Even Sears and tractor companies.

What color are the Tecky's on the Rupps? The Fox had a silver one.

I can only imagine Craig if you and Mike and I lived in the same neighborhood. LOL LOL :auto-dirtbike::auto-biker::auto-dirtbike:

If I remember correctly Mike, my RUPP Tecky was white and 4hp

Don't know what make this is but I gave $10 for it at our local T&E show a few years ago, been resting in the barn since then. All of a sudden I'm feeling the urge to put an engine on it.       :)       :auto-dirtbike:
