| Nice! I like ones like that which have a shorter look than some of them. Looks a lot sportier that way. Glad the new carb worked out well. It's annoying as heck when you have running issues. | |

| Thanks mr.mod! Yeah it had a horrible acceleration stumble with the old carb, and it was hard to start as well even after it was warmed up. Definitely very frustrating, but she's working great now! ![](https://i.servimg.com/u/f86/19/98/54/71/separa13.png) "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Sears LT11 Rat Rod Build *2019 Build-Off Winner!* Garden Tractor Collection: Allis B-110 x2, 710, 716, & 410 - Wheel Horse 655, 953 & 500 Special - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic, G10 & 1668 Diesel Swapped - Cub 106, 124 & 1000/149 Frankentractor - Ford 120, LGT 125 & 145 - White 1650 Yard Boss - Moto Mower 710-100 | |

| the lack of a kick stand and a decent brake is the real shortfall of these great bikes. I built one for with my son when he was 5 or 6 and he quickly realized he wanted both features. I just bought a weld on kickstand kit from GPS or BMI but I needed a left hand brake lever to simplify things for a kid and the kill switch tab prevented installation of a standard unit so I cut the perch off a CT70 bar and welded that on and added a band brake on the clutch. What an improvement and the scrub brake is still there so he can stop if the clutch brake fails (say the chain falls off). ![Manco Streaker Mini Bike - Page 3 Img_2011](https://i.servimg.com/u/f72/20/13/41/76/img_2011.jpg) ![Manco Streaker Mini Bike - Page 3 Img_2010](https://i.servimg.com/u/f72/20/13/41/76/img_2010.jpg) | |

| Hey that's a pretty sweet little bike you got there! Cool to see another Streaker on here, haha. That band brake on the clutch is very very cool! I don't think I've ever seen that before, is a commonly done thing?
Either way there's a good chance I'll end up copying that design on my own bike, haha. I was gonna do a disk setup on the rear wheel but a clutch band brake would be much easier to rig up! Like you did I'll probably leave the scrub brake in place, just for making light stops and what not. ![](https://i.servimg.com/u/f86/19/98/54/71/separa13.png) "This'll either wake you up or put you to sleep forever!"- Red Green "Whatever you do you should do right, even if it's something wrong." - Hank Hill - MTD Off-Road Build - Ford LT 110 Off-Road Build - Craftsman GT 6000 Off-Road Build - Sears LT11 Rat Rod Build *2019 Build-Off Winner!* Garden Tractor Collection: Allis B-110 x2, 710, 716, & 410 - Wheel Horse 655, 953 & 500 Special - Case 444 - Bolens Versamatic, G10 & 1668 Diesel Swapped - Cub 106, 124 & 1000/149 Frankentractor - Ford 120, LGT 125 & 145 - White 1650 Yard Boss - Moto Mower 710-100 | |

| yeah the band brake was an overpriced kit from some go-kart place but you could totally make your own. its basically a clutch scatter shield with a cable barrel nut installed. You will probably also have to whip something up for a brake perch. This was for my kid so I didn't mess around and did a proper welding job. I'm the only drunken midnight test pilot in this family. | |
