The owner. Depends on the gearing obviously.

Mine's as slow as a wet week. 50kph if you're lucky but I really wanna get my hands on the big LC critter.

The world record for a true minimoto stands at 78mph I believe. That's sick.

130km/hr on a minimoto is pretty fucking quick. what sort of speeds nort to sixtay?

I've got no idea, I've never tried to measure it. As I say, the fastest I've personally been is about 80 kph on Haydens WC1, and that was fucken terrifying. They're SO unstable and with no suspension at all, you get bounced around a hell of alot. The problem with the real hypo ones, is they've got so little torque, the clutch doesn't engage 'till real high revs. If you're going through a slower turn, the bike is actually free wheeling, then you have to try and get back on the gas without the little fucker pitching ya over the highside.

Hillarity usually ensues.

I'm getting strangely turned on reading this thread... talk about bang for your bucks!! Don't suppose you can point me in the direction of a site/link that has some info on these little things? Also, the Hayden you're talking about is it the Hayden I'm thinking of down here or another one??

Wellington scene is doing really well. They race at the same meetings as the Karts which I believe is the 3rd Sunday of each month.

In fact, next month there's a heap of Auckland racers coming down for a meeting.
