This is definitely not your Grannies scooter. This is the largest gas pocket bike on the market today; it is one of the fastest too! You'll be amazed at the power that this scooter can produce. The beautifully laid fiberglass body resembles that of a real racing motorcycle. When you sit in the drivers seat, the kid in you just makes you want to hit the pavement and go! This bike has 49cc's, a beautifully polished stainless steel muffler, heavy duty chain drive, automatic transmission, brake lights, bug deflector, ventilated front and rear disc brakes, a centrifugal clutch, speedometer, leather seat and much, much more. Good things definitely come in small packages, especially with this bad boy!
What's a Pocketbike?
Pocketbikes (a.k.a. minimotos) are really not "minibikes" in the traditional sense - they are miniature GP Racing motorcycles. Machines accurate in detail, proportion, and craftsmanship to any world-class GP bike. Disc brakes front and rear, racing tires, fairings, beautiful lightweight aluminum alloy cast perimeter frame and swingarm - these things are works of motor-art...the kind of thing that would look right at home sitting in a corporate VP's office, among objects of art and high technology as a trophy.
Although they would also look fine on your mantle as an impressive centerpiece, the Pocketbikes shine best in competition. Depending on the model and HP, performance varies: The smaller industrial-motored models used by Junior class racers are capable of speeds of over 35 mph, the average 4.2 hp and 6.2 hp racing models achieve about 40-45 mph, and open class machines can clock over 50 mph!
Engine kits and other hot mods are available for bolting together open-class machines of over 12 hp, and with a little porting and massaging, the production of well beyond 12.5 hp is possible from the incredibly compact and efficient designs. We now even offer 40cc and 50cc open-class factory prepared racers, putting the power-to-weight ratio of this motorcycle racing form in a class by itself. |
