Pocket Bikes

herbinator45 · 06-25-2009, 10:48 AM

... I'm considering getting one... found a seller on ebay that sells them for pretty cheap. really nice ones under $100. other dudes selling them wholesalse like 4/$140 and shit, so maybe i could even start selling them.. hahaha

any advice/tips on purchasing one and what to look for would be much appreciated

been there done that.

go big or go home!

bottom line, if you don't upgrade the engine, it will break.

Pocket bikes are fun, but stupidly dangerous. Out of the 5 people who have ridden them with me only one(me) has not at least lost a couple inches of skin screwing around with them.

I'm aware of that, but those chinese pieces of shit are a waste of money.

The shipping oil that comes in the engine has metal shaving in it and shit, the quality of the bikes are just terrible and you'll be jury-rigging things right and left. If you're a decent mechanic and you have nothing better to do, go for it. Just make sure you read some website reviews first.

So, bottomline, it's not even worth it? What made you want one, anyways? It's not like there's a lot you can do with them.

i just saw them uber cheap and thought it'd be fun to fuck around with. have never been into real motorcycles, but the pocket bikes kind of appeal to me for some reason.. if they're mad dicey though, maybe i'll go with one of the pocket 4-wheelers, :P hahah
