Keep them pictures coming ! From what i understand mini racing in the early 70s was really big down under. A guy in Australia even produced a PK mono shock aftermarket frame. I guess about 12 or so of them. Had a chance to buy one a few months back. I passed on it. I couldn't relate to it. I begged my father to order a REDLINE frame from the Minicycle mag in the 70s, never got it. I'm trying to locate one to buy. I can have them reproduced if i find one. I have only seen pictures of two of them. The one is on BBR web site, it was stolen from their shop a while back ! And the other that was turned into a flat-tracker, pic below. O well the search is on.......

Can I ask what he's trying to sell the PK for?



I know a guy that has a few of the Australian built PK replicas still brand new



he wants $2200 for them though.



I'm suppose to be trading some trick elsinore stuff for a authentic PK frame next week.
 
I would of allready bought one of those PK repop frames but man I just can't convince myself to spend $2300 on one.



Looks like I'm getting my hands on the real deal though now.

Just so you know the original frames were not made from chrome moly. I was told that buy the guy that had them reproduced. He did tell me the repop ones are made from it. All the tubing but one piece on the swing-arm is not. They could not find in the dimensions for it so the used regular steel. If i cant find a Redline frame soon i might splurge for one. If you look close it will need foot pegs and a brake pedal and a shock !
