Especially as you can't see them coming up because they are at bumper height...you know what that means?

...bumper bait!!!

They should not be allowed on the road and definitely not main highways!

In regards to not seeing them I dont see what the problem is myself, they what sit a foot or so lower than your average scooter etc?, I would say a kid on a BMX is harder to see than a mini chooper but no one compains about them on the road?. Plus everyone takes more notice of them than your average biker because of look, style and sound(this is probably why you all hate them, haha), so probably safer in that respect if anything. They are also cheap to buy and very cheap to run and maintain. So in my opinion, if you are into bikes and dont have allot of money, they are a very good option. Last of all the only person they can harm really, is them self???

mini choppers are gay and dangerous.. if you're gonna buy some small little bike, rather get a pit-bike and get that road-registered.. at least with those, there is a coolness factor, you can pull wheelies, stoppies, and you are as visible as a scooter..

I don`t like them . P.S if any of you I Can`t Ride A Big Bike Persons are reading this don`t wave to me!

DANGEROUS.

A couple of idiots tuttle up and down my street, road, footpath, road. Wearing baseball helmets???? No protection whatsoever! When they DO become cage fodder, it'll be labelled as a Motorcycle accident and the public image of true motorcyclists will be tarnished.

HE WAS PROLLY LAUGHING AT YOU AND YOUR BIKE AND DIDNT WANT TO FILL UP CAUSE SOMEONE MIGHT THINK YOU GUYS WERE TOGETHER.
