Pocket Bikes

The biggest engine for the pocket 2 stroke bikes seems to be the 50cc ones then you get the 4 stroke 74cc one which come with 4 speed gear box. Some of the choppers have a 107cc engine that can reach over 100 clicks.

Yeah thats what i thought, but its here in a flyer. i know the one i'm getting is air cooled and the 100clicks are water cooled. didn't know about the 4speed box though, i'll ask the guy if he can get them.

denham get one.. and somebody please photograph him flying off at 90km/hr as the bike disintigrates around him, and/or gives him a fatal electric shock  

Ahh.. man they don't make cheap fad crap in china like they used to!

There are places that replace the bearings and all fasteners to aus standard parts so they dont disintrigate

They dont all come out of china now, some come from europe and uk but cost more obiviously which i am looking at getting.

This one looks preety sweet

what price are you looking for beefy?

And can you post a condition so i know what it looks like?

Do you know much about these bikes?

As the new Terminator ones with the front headlights and tach/speedo have the new cvt tranny but weigh 40kg compared to the 20kg of the older model but have same 49cc engine but say they will still do 60km/h like the old model? Is this shit?

does anyone know of pocket bike clubs in victoria? my b/f would like to start racing his asap

[INASNT]

which model does he have? mods?

[beefy]

Im a n00b with these bikes.

I will post up some pics real soon. I have a Cruise this weekend that I am organising so very busy till monday.

[INASNT]

I should have this one by the end of tonight

With 13inch rims

Or this one with 15's

They are the biggest pocket bikes available at the moment but have cvt tranny so they are just as quick as the smaller ones but more stable and better built, as i dont see myself riding the ones with the 10inch wheel as my knees will scrape the ground.

Yeah, we got some in a container at work for fun... The little water-cooled one is definately a rocket, bloody noisy though - the clutch is set for 8500rpm, runs to around 13000rpm..... They definately achieve 90km/h though, even with 100kgs on it!

But yeah, I would make sure anything you get has had the bearings and fasteners changed for AU spec stuff. One bike shot a front bearing within 30 minutes. The rest are in various states of destruction though.

Personally I was going to get the mini trail bike, I'm 6'4", although I had a go on the little watercooled one I don't think I was very aerodynamic with knees around my ears!

[INASNT]

The watercooled one still only have the 10inch wheels, which is 2 damn small

[cooks44]

We're hoping to do an engine swap from the water-cooled to one of the bigger bikes... Should make it a little more fun!

[funkymonkey]

my old subaru sherpa had a 499cc carby engine, which was farkin awesome, I didn't have to register the car to drive it on the roads... and it seated 2 people comfortably. Shame it couldn't make it up a 30 degree incline without difficulty with the same 2 people in the car.

If I still had it I'd have given you guys a drag in it.

The 110cc 4 stroke engine from the new choppers might be a good swap also. Alot more torque than the 39cc watercooled

for those that dont know what a pocket bike looks like, the pic may get ur attention

I am picking up my 70cc today

[2rismo]

I spent all last night at Kembla Grange go kart track just south of Wollongong and had the time of my life.

I knew my old skateboarding knee pads would come in handy !!

[INASNT]
