Since there isent going to be many more track days till the end of the year I thought I might get myself a pocket bike and have some fun on the weekends with one since my friend and a couple of his friends from work have some and they go hooning on the weekends.

I have been doing a bit of reading and there seem to be a few different models around all around 49cc but weigh different and have different top speeds, Tank capacity and a few other little differences, altho they all come from similiar places in China.

These places sells some

http://www.pocketracer.com.au/webcontent8.htm (This one sells modified ones that are preety sick)

Even MattR in SAU was selling some to SA guys for only around $440 which seems a little cheap.

Who has one and know a bit about em?

Do they need to be registered etc?

If you are after one I suggest looking at this site.

I know Adam and he is a good bloke plus he told me he has a container of Water Cooled Bikes that do 90km/hr. Prank and I are associated with them.

If you are after a cheaper one .. mine is for sale as I want to get a Water Cooled one.

It has been ridden 6 times and dropped once by a friend going 5 km/hr (Can't expect too much, he is an STI Driver)

I have a few spares (chain, sprocket, spark plug)

Was riding really well until I took off the rear wheel off and the brakes fell apart :)

But I'll get it back together soon.

Send me a PM if you're intersted.

for $250??? From where? it must be the mini of the mini range for that price

there's 3 size's, the price goes up with the size of course. these one are worth around $800aus(i believe its the smallest size). some guy from my work is importing one bulk load and worked out a deal. take's 6 wks to get here, in plain red, green or blue (jap style with decals and i think tool kit) the chopper just comes in black and silver. i am told they are capable of 70km's per hour.

Also he has sent me upgrade kit's. High comp 54cc motors, air filters, carbon exhusts, key starts etc...... theres a s**t load of upgrades.......

you think i'll need a trailer on the back of my liner for this thing :rant:

They arent worth the , unless you have spare cash, and are after a good laugh. They broke in a few days. Fun none the less, waste of good money though. :rant:

How do they break exactly? There are already clubs that race at go cart tracks so there has to be some realibility to them.

The biggest engine for the pocket 2 stroke bikes seems to be the 50cc ones then you get the 4 stroke 74cc one which come with 4 speed gear box. Some of the choppers have a 107cc engine that can reach over 100 clicks.

One had a dodgy motor - need I say any more.

The other, little brackets ect broke that held on the plastics. Seat broke, dodgy wiring job on kill switch, which lead to awesome shocks through the fingers. – Just small things really. The other bike was just a pig.

I guess you get what you pay for,

a friend of mine repairs them for a supplier who sells the bikes at about 500 each. all i can say is they are cheap and nasty machines that break down way too often to even bother with.

if you do get one make sure it has a long waranty and the place wont go under in 2 weeks so you can acually claim on it.

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
