You also need a driver's licence to ride one, so you can't go giving them to five year olds. This also means that if you are caught breaking the law (riding at night, riding unregistered, etc), then you lose you driver's licence.

Want a better idea? Throw a 33cc chainsaw motor on to a push bike and pull 90km/h out of it without the need for registration, insurance, a proper helmet, etc.

Yes i did buy one, but mine is the slightly bigger one that has head light, tail light and indicators etc. They are illegal to ride on the road as supposedley they dont comply with australian design rules (this i argued as mine only need side mirrors to have the same features as my full size bike) and if you get caught cops can do you for driving an unregistered vehicle, which can mean loss of license for 6 months if they want to be pricks. They also cant be registered as they have no engine numbers. I had a lengthy discussion with a cop i know on the subject after he saw mine. Your not even allowed to ride them in bike lanes with helmets on which is bullshit. Still fun for when there not looking tho;)

I had a look at one at a local PC shop and it was BLOODY TINY. I would have no chance whatsoever of riding it.

Wicked little things though - tons of fun and top value at that price!!!

the one I had a look at was at "Inspect a Gadget" (or some name like that) on Poole Ave, Klemzig. It was the owners own bike (that is kept out the back), but he used to sell them. Not sure if it is the same as the ones Matt's getting. Some guy (maybe from JMS) had one he was riding at the Drift day - I think MattR knows him?
