Fwd: No Reserve: 1985 Suzuki JR50 Coin-Operated Children's Ride for sale on BaT Auctions - ending December 16 (Lot #223,712) | Bring a Trailer

[LARRY POAGUE]

Being old and worn out has forced me to give up a few things I really enjoyed.

One of my favorites was riding motorcycles. I could purchase this and ride it in the garage with a big fan blowing air over me.

With the garage door closed, it would be dark, and I could pretend I was on an older British bike with Lucas electronics that

Shorted out the head and tail lights. Just a thought ???

No Reserve: 1985 Suzuki JR50 Coin-Operated Children’s Ride

This children’s ride was built by Coin Co. of St Louis, Missouri, mounting a 1985 Suzuki JR50 dirt bike atop a blue base, with motion provided by a coin-activated electric motor. The bike is said to have been displayed at a museum and features black-and-yellow bodywork, handlebars with rubber grips, wire-spoke wheels with knobby rubber tires, footpegs, a black-finished engine case, and black number plates. This Suzuki JR50 children’s ride was purchased by the seller in 2023 and is now offered at no reserve in Apex, North Carolina, on a bill of sale.

Doesn’t look like a good candidate for a fly-n-ride purchase but at least it looks pretty clean!

You could do that Larry but the 5 year old in line behind you with a quarter in his hand might get pretty upset and go get his mom to come and give you a stern lecture about sharing.
