stunting

matty06 · Dec 28, 2006

hey guys,

this may sound like a stupid idea but would a 50cc pocket bike be good for stunting??

e.g. like this one http://www.wesellit.ca/images/auctions3/pb2main3.jpg

Some guys mess around on them , and stunt them... but not as a serious stunt bike.

i guess you could have a go, but you really need more hp and more braking power (especially up the front) to get serious. It'd be a good challenge

Ebay sellers will lie there ass off to sell there goods. Those are meer estimates provided by the chinese, the chinese make em as quick as they can, they dont ride them.

If you tried to do any jumps on a pocket bike the frame would snap on the first bike hit.

dude they are so **** and parts wear out easy, they don't have enuff power unless you get a watercooled or mod your cag air cooled! so **** and the cluches wear out when you ride them on grass, the backs snap off like the fairings. The throttles get stuck the exhaust rusts the pull starts stuff up, i got a $50 alloy one and it was good. I sold mine for $85 it was worth ****, you can win them on ebay for under $200.. so cheap to make

matty06 they are the most uncomfortable thing you will ever ride. i`ve ridden one once and would refuse to ever get on one again. they may look good but as a bike they are *****

Now if your paying $100, how much did it cost to make in the first place... how much real metal is in there, nevermind it probly doesn't have any bearings its probly just bushes to save on production costs.

Yeh i dont think they would be much chop. Abit too small to get a good go at things id imagine. If you wanna stunt get into it on your pitbike, Stunt101 is the guy to talk to as far as i can tell. Hell help ya get started if ya ask nicely im sure.
