Pocket Bikes - who knows about them?

[cheddo7]

Hey guys,
After seeing these things being imported heaps lately, I've decided I want to get hold of one for racing on go-kart tracks, but I know f#@k all about them!
I'm an ex 125 and 250gp racer, smallish size (5"7 74kg's , used to be 60kg's when racing the 125-retirement and beer did the rest).
Basically if you know what brands to steer clear of, and which ones are the best - and also which has the best figures (kw/kg's).
I've got a link to a good little video here too if anyone would like a look.
Cheers,
Cheddo.

Mate, you're the type of rider a team manager loves - 'protect the bike!'
What kind of size are you anyway, and are they awkwardly small?
I'm looking at the new Banshee SHO 50cc water cooled sucker on ebay right now - 10hp ATW on DynoDynamics trailer mounted dyno!!! Haahaha, want one.

I rode one for the first time at a mates place last week. The one i had is fucking tiny, a lot of fun though. Chain keeps stuffing up so we put it away. 7 foot-thats a huge bitch!

i rode one in the uk a couple of weeks ago.
Mate over there brought a container full in and he was paying about $160 AU a bike and selling them with a nice margin.

take awhile to get used to, i kept on elbowing my knees.
