Mini Chopper outruns the Police

[Deano]

Well if you would like to show me how to chase a machine that can quite easily out run me in traffic as it can fit between traffic, between buildings and under trucks then your more than welcome to come to auckland central and instruct me when im out;

Get your boss to provide you with a full Police replica mini moto. (seen the latest Ghost Rider ?)

Or stop eating those doughnuts, get fit, get out of the car and chase him down on foot. (PT)

DEATH TO MINICHOPPERS

they need to crack down on the Fob's who sell them, knowingly that the will be used illegally on the road, and wont be registered

a majority of them are 110cc which breaks the 50cc/2kw moped law
they are tricky tho (as they come from the land of the counterfeit, China) and they have 49cc on the casting

[Coyote]

Hahaha, the cops will never let that down. Beaten by a retard on a minibike. Although, they might not have even been after him, he may have just been spooked.

That got me thinking. If a squad car is on its way to a crime in progress (for example) and it catches a person speeding on the radar, does the quota take priority?

well that was sorta my point

[gamgee]

who here knew you're not actually allowed to ride an sj50 on your car licence alone? - they are over 2kw

The Honda Dream 50R that I intend to buy (at some time) will be registered as a moped... damn sight cooler than a mini chopper (all that says to me is "oooh I watch too much bad TV and have no critical faculties")

the dream 50 makes a staggering 7PS.

I was just travelling along Great South Road,near Manurewa and saw a Mini chopper (toy) going like a bat out of hell along the footpath. A cop car was travelling the other way, did a u-turn light flashing the whole deal. I thought nothing of it. Went to the bank did my thing and expected to see the cop writing out a ticket on my way back. I was only in the bank for two minutes.

On my way back didn't see no cop car, went to the lotto shop and on the way out I saw the bike pulling out of a side street. The rider looking everywhere. I guess he did a runner. He wins this time.

The bike had no number plate. The rider was wearing jeans, singlet shirt and one of those german styled helmets.

Pretty ballsy but I guess it still gives bikers a bad name.

Yea and some little kiddy comes runiing out of his gate and gets clobbered. Go the coppers on this one.

I should clarify..When I mean ballsy, I was thinking more about the fact that he was doing a runner. I would never do that, so you can call me a pussy. I didn't really take into consideration anyone getting run down or run into by the idiot.
So maybe ballsy wasn't a good call.

on the topic of fifty's

the badest 50 of all time i reckon is the gas gas super motard 50, about 6 grand i think, mt eden had one a while back, 6 speed, bix expansion chamber and i think they may have even been full reed induction, not sure about if they had exhaust powervalve

[Drunken Monkey]

BAN them I say.... they are so damned dangerous.

Yeah, that's it. Ban them. Because the government isn't meddling in our lives enough at the moment. That's the answer for everything - if it's even remotely fun, contraband it. Prohibition rules! {/sarcasm}

[SARGE]

yes you are..2 kw power when they come out of the crate..they are restricted from Suzuki..legally, i have to sell them that way.. deristricted models run a bit faster and its not that hard to do

[Xtat1k]

they look like they could be a blast on the grass or something but not on the road, i frequently see those little things on the footpath, makes u wanna put a stick in the spokes lol.

You won't have a choice. The importer does the MR2A and that governs what it's first registered as. Sorry.

[tracyprier]

Yeah I've spotted him a few times myself... always followed by me shaking my head and muttering some totally derogatory comment.

And guys, can we PLEASE not refer to these things as bikes, that gives them some kind of legitimacy... they are toys...or something but not bikes.

Yeah, the German helmet... Seig Heil mate.... you cloth eared, slack-jawed, swivel-eyed inbred.
