Reaperbikes has been here from the start, est 2003.
Timeline
-Late 2003
First ever sample 110cc Reapers imported for testing
Outcome, for back then they were ok, a few teething problems but nothing major. Parts included a XR50 plastics, 110cc engine.
- Middle 2004,
Reaper 110cc went into production along with the Reaper 125cc
Outcome, the Reaper 125cc had allot of the same parts as the Thumpstar pro, including alloy frame and forks, this model was not what we expected and had problems, including forks, engine and brake failure. This model was quickly withdrawn. Other brands sold similar models in bulk, it soon gave Pit Bikes/Mini Motos a bad reputation worldwide.
- Late 2005
First sample Reaper NF-6 was imported for testing
Outcome, this bike was leaps and bounds ahead of the older style Pit Bikes/Mini Motos and came just in time, as faith was quickly being lost in Pit Bikes/Mini Motos. Being designed in the USA by riders and parts constructed in China, Japan and Taiwan it soon put into production and this model is still available today but with many different options available. Including, Marzocchi, Fastace and DNM suspension, 125cc, 140cc and 150cc engines.
- Late 2006
First sample NF-7 was imported for testing
Outcome, the NF-7 is a very trick looking bike, with a custom built mono 6061 billet alloy swingarm and 4130 cromoly cradle frame(footpeg mounts bolted to frame not engine) it is a awesome bike. It did have a minor problem with the Lifan 140 engine, this problem was quickly rectified and the engine brand was changed. Reapers now only use the YXR engine, also known as the GPX engine, one of the fastest most reliable engines available for Pit Bikes/Mini Motos.
- Early 2008
First sample NF-R was imported for testing
Outcome, this bike came equipped with Marzocchi Shiver forks, KLX style plastics and the YXR160 engine with inner rotor kit so it’s setup for Pit Bike/Mini Moto racing, so far has been an awesome bike and suits the experienced rider. There is also the NF-R motard version coming out with motard tires, full lighting kit and rubber footpeg/axel guards.
- Late 2008
The new TTR and CRF70 models are currently being imported for testing
They use similar brands to the other models but with a few additions and more in proportion to the 14/12 wheel setup, these models will raise the bar for Pit Bikes/Mini Motos once again and we believe the CRF70 model will become one of the most popular styles available.

One of the very first Reapers being put through the tests.
