Late in the summer I ran across a Manco Big Cat and snagged it for a great price. It's a 6hp stretched out and beefed up mini-bike that will go just about anywhere, the rear sprocket is as big as a medium pizza! It has tons of torque, space for a full grown kid (like me) and my daughter took to it like a cop to a crotch rocket in a school zone. It needed some stuff and we figured why not have some fun with it too? I installed the old drag bars from the KZ650 I'm Cafe-ing and got a mini fairing from Legendary Motorcycles along with a 7" truck light from ebay and BAM instant fat Cafe! This thing is a total blast to ride, I don't know how fast it is but it's fast enough to put a grin on your face like when you were a kid again.
Here is my daughter with her Fat Cat in stock form:
And here is how it looks this morning after a bit of fun in the garage last night:
I suppose a Cafe seat would be a natural on it's flat frame but I think I'll wait until the existing one wears out..shouldn't be long..I can't keep people off the darn thing! VZ
You can't imagine how much fun this thing is. Everybody who rides it comes back with a poop eating grin and looks like they lost 30 years of stress. I found an 11hp engine that should fit but I just don't know if it really needs to be any faster than it is...awww hell who am I trying to kid?
Man those are SOOO much fun!! I used to have something like that back in the day before I got my first 3 wheeler. Those motors are bullet proof and cheap to replace if they blow up. Plenty of hop up parts for them too.
