Default pics of my buggy
I just bought this buggy about 3 weeks ago, and just last week found out, thanks to this site I think it is a Tomberlin crossfire 150. It has no reverse, but does have the front disk brakes on the wheels and 1 disc brake on the rear axle. It didn"t run when I got it, but after a new carb. and battery it cranked right up and runs good. I would like to be able to install the reversing kit on it. Anyone having any info on how this is done I would greatly appreciate it. Also the cheapest way to go. Any pics you would need let me know. thanks zman

Good looking rig you got there. Now I can see the bigger differences between the crossfire and the yerfs, the cossfire for sure looks better built.

welcome to the zoo! good score, the crossfire's are considered to have one of the best front ends of the 150s. Pretty scarce find these days.

I just got the new air filter [new style] and new fan cover yesterday, and will be adding it when the weather permits. I can"t afford the fancy type rpms gauges, hour meter, but I bought one of the wrap around the spark plug types and will be installing it soon. I also bought a battery monitor meter which shows the battery voltage. I also bought a air horn set to go on this bad boy and just hooked them up temp. to check it out and I think they are loud, but I can"t tell anymore. LOL zman

My wife asked if I could put a trailer hitch on the back of my buggy. when I asked why, she said to pull her little yard, garden trailer around. that should speed up her yard work to at least 25 to 30 mph. LOL

I have seen this ploy time and time again, she will drive the buggy, and you get to dig up the weeds/pooper scoop/dispense mulch and such. Clever though, lol.
