Anyone thinking of Buying a pocket bike??
« on: October 15, 2004, 09:26:19 PM »
I found this one on FleabaY..I emailed a person who bought one from Him and He said it wasn't a scam,shipped it fast and it was of pretty good quality!!

I'am getting one for My son..(He's only 2 and already has some skillz!!)Iam going to ad training wheels,govern the throttle down Big time,and add a teather kill with a cord so I can shut it off at any time..


He told Me $220 shipped to My door!!Maybe cheaper if Buying a few?There the Cheapest I've seen with shocks front and back??even has some nice aluminum frame covers..Hmmm Got to give Him the Bling early!!

He has them in alot of colors too,Iam getting Blue/black..

Jsut to let You know!!

I have one of the cheap Chinese pocketbikes.  They're fun, I GPS'd mine at ~30mph with me on it (5'9"/190-195lbs).  I bought mine used off of Pocketbikeplanet.com.




They're fun to ride, but wear your gear.  I looped mine doing wheelies  :mrgreen:

hehe, thanks.  I'm trying to make it as fast as my Hayabusa  :mrgreen:  Only making 550rwhp right now, but it's light.  With my stock wheels on, it's about 3100lbs.

The pocketbikes are fun to cruise around and you can even mod them.  From what I read on pocketbikeplanet.com, none of these bikes are 47-49cc.  Most of them are 39cc.  Most of them run around 30mph stock, with mods you can get them up to 40mph, but not much more than that for the cheap bikes.

If you pony up to the real Italian race bikes (Blata, Polini, etc), you get real suspension and top quality bikes that are made for racing... with prices of $2500-4500   :shock:

Yeah I rode a few of those real fast ones,felt like it had 2 speeds? I almost had to let it go after a wheelie gone bad!!I was running with it in the air saying please.. I don't want to pay for this little sucker!! He had like $2k into it!!

But the Cheapo $200 one will work for Me!!

I wonder How You could tell if its really 49cc or not??

I also have a VETTE a old C4,Been sitting in MY garage for a decade!!!

PS.I would love a NEW one!! Wayne..They hiring were You work!!LOL!!

Here's how it is...
220 shipped for those, or 200 flat for the ones here...

I have not seen the ones here yet, ALL I have heard is 30mph... which could be wrong, and everything, but if everyone is saying that is average, it's probably true.  I'll pay the extra 20 for an exotic!

there ya go. cheap, light, underpowered, and take it to your room so it dont get lifted. all ya had to do was be patient young jedi

Besides being true, and hilarious, I just got done watching Star Wars! No joke!

AMAZING ^^^^^^^
BUT that is a bidding item, not a 'buy it now'... about the same price now, but trust me, when the bidding ends, it will not be.
Looks cool though.

I'll have to call and find out how the ones here fare against the original one on these forums, becuase the one I can get HERE NOW is less money, AND no one can pull any bullshit on me...

EDIT not too sure about what I just said about the buy it now... because I'm seeing that the original link has been SOLD...? What happened?
