Now you can buy a Kikker 5150

Wed, 14 May 2008 18:29:03 +0000

I was at the University Mall and found a new store called Rockabilly INC. And what was in the window but a Kikker 5150. I talked to the owner, Dave Roach, about it. He sells them and lot of them. I have tried various approaches to connect people interested in the 5150 with someone that sells the kit. Now I have one.

Shoot me an email and I will get you in touch with David.

My father in law, Craig, told me about a small kit motorcycle that runs a little 4 stroke. I think I finally found it. Thanks to an ad in the back of Popular Mechanics magazine, here it is ( I think):

The HARDKNOCK is a bobber in a traditional "old school" style featuring a springer front suspension, forward controls, jockey shift, electric start, solo seat, hydraulic disk brake, chrome plated TIG
welded 4130 chrome-moly frame, and either a 49cc or 110cc 4-speed 4-stroke engine. It is significanty larger than our popular pocket bikes, sporting a 15" rear wheel and an 18" front. There is no plastic on the HARDKNOCK. It is comprised of numerous polished billet aluminum components and chrome plated alloy steel. It can be ordered in black primer or in one of our custom paint schemes. Price starts at $1499.
