1984 mitygoose (survivor)
« on: April 29, 2010, 10:29 PM »

Picked this up recently after a nice tip-off from Joff  ;)

Not too many of these knocking round  8)

Haven't done anything to it really except for a quick clean and popped one of my padsets on it to tart it up for the piccies  :)

So prety much 99% all original - it's in nice condition - it's even got the original tyres and brake blocks ! ;D

I'll probably do a full resto on this at some point - maybe change the colour scheme and get some 16" tuffs - but for now my daughter is enjoying taking it for a spin since she says her pink minigoose is still a tad too big for her at the moment  ::)

Pics are sh!te cos it was raining  :crazy2:

Here ya go...........

You jammy fooker John - bring it to MK and I'll race my daughter's Lil' Ripper round the track with you bud :LolLolLolLol:

That is something else mate, but I'd have it off to Neil for a Pro-Class finish paint job and Del's for some "Diddi-Class" decals before you knew it :2funny: >:D

I fancy you drilling the rims like the BotM entry this month from The Styler bud......

Nice. Love it :daumenhoch:

Yeah it's a cool little thing. I like these and the first nickel ones because they where "true" mini versions of the full size frames - this is technically a mini cali - look at the geometry / welds/ dropouts / looptail / forks etc.  8) And the early mity was like a mini-minigoose same style dropouts etc. and same cool welds and mini ashtabulas !  :coolsmiley: But around 80-82 they did a weird mitygoose - it was kind of it's own design with leading axle forks think it was made by a 3rd party - not so cool  :buck2:

But this lil' fella is a keeper - and in good shape too  :)



 pit bike race at MK this year . Your not going ? ??????


Adult pit bike race at MK :shocked: now that i'd like to see  :LolLolLolLol:

Can't come this year bud - dates just don't work with my calendar this year  :'(

You'll have to look after your kid on yer own this year  :2funny: :LolLolLolLol:
