Taco Mini Bike was the brainchild of John Steen, a top off-road racer and the inventor of Steen C, the first 100-percent synthetic motor oil.
Taco frijole mini bike kit crack#
This was done because the SERIES I was not strong enough and would bend and crack at the fork neck and at the top center bolting point of the frame. Steen’s company built countless thousands of its Tacquito, Burrito, and Frijole-model mini-bikes between ’63 and ’71, until more sophisticated Honda Z50 and Kawasaki Coyote mini-cycles put the mini. The SERIES II is classified as a welded together frame. X-PRO Raptor 200cc Super Size Mini Trail Bike with Automatic Transmission and Pull Start 19' Wide Fat Balanced Tires (Factory Package, Green) 4.5 out of 5 stars. The SERIES I was built under John Steen‘s owner ship of the company.Original designer of the SERIES I mini bikes is unknown at this time. My brother purchased the rolling kit with the scrub brush brake for 50.00, and I stepped up for the Frijole roller with the drum brake for 60.00. All except the first model which was a weld together kit. My brother and I purchased our first Taco Frijole mini bike kits from Delta Pit Stop in Van Nuys, Ca. The first ’s were made as a kit to be shipped out around the country. This was done for easy and cheaper shipping. The SERIES I is classified as a bolt together frame. From 1966 to 1972 mini bikes frames are made at Hi-Performance Metal Fabricators ( A subdivision of STEEN’S) and assembled at STEEN’S location #3 From 1963 to 1965 mini bikes are made at STEEN’S location #2. There's plenty of YouTube videos now of crews of mini riders on the bikeways (illegally, of course).There are 4 series of mini bikes frames manufactured in the ten years that STEEN’S was building mini bikes. Of course all of these dry rivers now have been converted to bikeways, but back then it was illegal to be in there at all, and the cops or the Lakewood police helicopter would chase you! It was an unforgiving proving ground and I threw many a rod and ended up pushing it home. Same thing with the go karts, single and twin Briggs and Techumseh. (Nothing worse than being 'Up The Creek' without a master link!)Īnd all the way up the San Gabriel River to Downey.
