pocket bikes

Thursday, August 12, 2004 by i1t4yomindi | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hey all, I bought this pocket bike a week ago, and I must say these things rock. I spent like 3 weeks researching and found that even some chinese made ones are pretty good. This dude sells the best ones i know so far, because me and my friend bought from different sellers on ebay and the one he got broke in like 2 days lol. Can anyone share their experience with pocket bikes on ebay? I get a lot of feedback saying that they are crap, but then some say there are some good ones out there.

Yeah I'll share my experience with them....I'm about to call the cops on the folks across the road if they don't stop running the one they got up and down the road in the middle of the night. Damn things are noisy and not street legal >

now I remember why I came with the idea to spend less time here... There are 2 things I have on mind now:

1 - Man, I am in such a bad mood, gues I drunk too much last night.

2 - WTF IS THIS!! I mean, seriously, I dont want to be offensive to any people but common, this is a freaking skinning forum. Since when are pocket bikes SKINABLE?

I know there is a lot of stuff other then skinning related here as it is the general forum but dont you think you should find a pocketbike forum for this?

Scooter with a small 20 cc motor I believe.. And they can be folded up small.

Pocketbike motorcycles are true miniature GP racing motorcycles. Mainly Italian crafted machines (exept GEM wich comes from UK and the cheap Czech and Chinese imitations) that are 100% accurate in respect to their relationship to full scale GP motorcycles with racing compound tires. Unlike mopeds or scooters, they are not safe or legal for street use and the rider should wear full motorcycle racing protective gear.

I see them at the MotoGP in the pits.....they look like GP bikes that had one-too-many washes....some probably will be there again at PI this October....

Of course, some of the GP riders are both young AND tiny....and don't look quite so stupid on them....
