70mph for $600?????

[veloman]

An ad on this site for minipocketrockets.com led me to their minature motorcycles. Some of them they claim to reach 70mph....sounds pretty good for a complete machine that only costs $600.

These are 110cc 4 stroke engines, pushing around 15hp peak.


Any have one of these bikes? I can't imagine the quality being very good. But for only $600, they'd be some cheap fast fun.

They are about 35in tall, so they aren't as small as the typical 'pocket' bikes.

Anyone have anything to say about them?

Money better spent on a casket.

Are you implying they are dangerous due to poor quality, or high speed capability?



I would like to hear from anyone who has experience with these.

since dont have your city posted, i would say check craigs if the place is big enough you will find those things are cheaper than that.

I'm implying that if you want to go 70mph on a two wheeled vehicle, don't do it on a pocket bike. They're extremely dangerous.
