Ive been looking at the new pocket bikes lately, kinda interested in buying on, since my buddy has one and we wanna hit up the tracks a race a bit. Im looking or a 2 stroke 47-50cc pocket bike. Anyone know where i can get one for a decent price, or anyone have one to sell, please let me know. They are fun bikes, and rip too. Just something for entertainment for the next few weeks :P

Heres a pic of the one i was looking at before.

I Just bought one off Ebay a few weeks ago. Its pretty sweet.

Its an X7 (x8). 49cc, 2 speed CVT tranny, electric start, turn signals, brake lgts, headlights, full flaring and full guage package. $400 bucks got it to my door. For the price im super happy about it.

one of my buddies just got one of those 110cc "super" pocket bikes..theres a couple of them on ebay, which is where he got his. it hauls arse for being so little. i rode it down the street and the speedo said 58.. i still had some throttle to go but i ran out of road and i didnt feel like gunning it right away to get it up to speed, being the first time i had ever rode one

i want to get one of them 47cc cags, for $180 bucks i think it would be a fun little thing to screw around with

or maybe one of these... http://www.xpbikes.com/More_pocket_bikes.php

hey yall i got one for sale.it needs some things though>>>plastic is cracked,,,,,needs new clutch springs,,,,,and new throttle grip were the cable hooks into.....i had it all tooken apart and painted the frame black and the plastic black.now the crome really sticks out.before i took it apart i could get it to 55mph but ran out of road,now for some reason the speedometer doesnt work.it say r6 on the side,2 stroke,auto cvt,49cc.the back shock broke on mine so i took the spring out and welded it back together,so now its really low and looks sweet.i also made a custom pipe out of the stock one,and took the crap out of the pipe,the pipe and back wheel r about 1/4" apart but the wont touch.oh and that pipe its way LOUDER than my friends stock raptor.my one friend told me to put it queiter so he could here when to shift his quad.any way sorry for the long post.

i have pictures but i dont have them loaded on the computer.i could if someone wants to see them.
