Not sure if she's in any of the photos but the litle honda repsol with a cream mudguard and no engine.... Yeah, that's my one! Must've caught something nasty like syphilis off Andrew's dirty old honda when it was conceived.

The motor costs nearly twice as much as the whole bike to replace :P
The pull start housing + other stuff might be useful

[motorbyclist]

yeah, it's a ripoff, but handy nonetheless. if you need a new motor just contact a seller of the things


btw, i found the number of the guy i bought mine off, for those interested

Half the sellers i've found charge more for a pullstart than they do for a new clutch and pullstart combo....

[EJK]

have a tui

Oh thank you Dushi aka Mr. "I've-got-cash-to-burn"

I might get one if I have some spare cash after getting the FXR on the road...

Me and Ehab can throw $20 each for pocket rocket fleet.

Anyone want to sponsor us $200 more to purchase Minimotard?
(Or two more person $100 each, $50 and $150 etc)

You get to keep pocket rocket to your garage, but let us ride it when there's pocket rocket race

why the minimotards? you shouldn't trust those chassis offroad, can't ride them offroad, can't really trust a chinese 4 stroke/gearbox (lots of moving precision parts), and is it really fair and/or a good idea racing those with the pocket rockets?

and they cost a lot more

No not those, it's the one Dushy got. It's 2stroke and same size as pocketrockets. It only cost $30 more than pocketrockets.

Dushy's one is actually slower than pocketrockets
Probly because of Carb setting it only goes when it hits its very topend

It's got pegs in different position and I find it easier to ride than pocketrockets hehee

so he's the idiot who bought one!

if it's that same motor it's going to suffer from the heavier chassis (i was thinking it was a more expensive 4 stroke one)


and YOU find it easier? i'm a good foot taller than you and still manage to fit on a pocket rocket!

imo sticking to eligible racing classes is always a good idea when buying a racing bike

oi squigs:
can we apply for a subsidised trip to mt wellington for a trackday?

[motorbyclist]

omg!

General Description of a MiniMoto
Miniature road race motorcycle, no higher than an adults knee.
Originally from Japan, then perfected by the Italians, now mass produced by the Chinese.
The name MiniMoto or Pocket Bike has been used for some years now in Europe and the UK, world champion Valentino Rossi started motorcycle racing on such a machine, today many youngsters have emerged from this sport as top level racers with a promising future ahead of them.

to the track!

Hmm but it's got same engine and I don't think it's got huge weight difference... It was something to do with engine power deliverly.
Coz in straight of Epsom carpark I can catch up with Jafa's insanely fast pocketrocket(but need to pull plug out to start everytime after engine stop oh and it doesn't have fairing so it's gotta be in another class hehe) when power kicks in

I find it easier to ride because of slightly less vibration thanks to it's wee-suspension XD

Pocketrockets Mt.Wellington race to the sky??

do you know the weight difference? it's probably less than the rider weight difference now i think about it

could be a pretty big variability in the engines just due to shit/no/standard chinese quality control

sooooo keen to start modifying/tuning my one. wanna squeeze as much power as i can while still keeping the stock parts


and the plug issue - either carby needs tuning, you've mixed too much oil, you're flooding it in between starts, or it just doesn't like you. mine doesn't like me either, even now i've got the mix right at the carby, still tweaking the oil
