I don't understand the appeal of pocket bikes.
They're as small as the bicycles clowns ride in the circus under the big top.
They have 6" wheels, no suspension, the engines are no bigger than a weed whacker and ware out twice as fast, close to impossible to get parts, can only be ridden on smooth pavement, cannot be ridden in the dirt or on grass, are not street legal, hazardous to your health (ever fall off one of those things doing 35mph?).
So someone please tell me, what is so fascinating about pocket bikes?
You can have more fun on a Stellar mini bike with a Briggs & Stratton engine.
Get a dirt bike, don't buy a toy.

Pocket bike or pit bike?
A proper, genuine dirt bike has been the best prezzie I've ever got.
Definately a dirt bike, but if you want to ride it on the roads, you might want to consider an enduro-type bike like the DR650, BMW X-Challenge (if you're one of those people with money to burn) or perhaps a WR450 or CRF450X or a 530EXC-F, 630EXC-F. Any of these are top bikes. Maintenece will need to be kept up to them though.
Note: There has recently been released and ADR-Registerable Pit-bike

Pocketbikes are more for smooth pavements, if you have lots of grassy and dirt areas, go with the dirt bike.

funds for some element that runs? Now your getting me to thinking of establishing a Drag bypass Cart. not extra GI Joe shops or clearance merchandise. there is Bent motorcycle in Lynnwood while you're in Washington state they get motorcycles on and stale and characteristic them used on the industry many of the year/ word they're all salvage motorcycles and consignment motorcycles on the industry. $500.00 to purchase a motorcycle. in case you have some credit which would be basically the element. Honda has a million% intrust for 36 months and value low as $60.00 a month. My 2nd 2008 Xr650L became $211.ninety one a month for 36 months and have been given 40 seven MPG and required No operator insurance. Time is money and to spend 40 hours a week basically searching for a motorcycle for $500.00 you're unlikely to love what you hit upon. Or it truly is stolen?

Pocket bikes are too small - the balance is harder and not as comfortable as a dirt bike.

I know a friend who just got a dirt bike for his birthday, and he says its the best gift hes ever gotten. Plus they are better offroad i believe.

Pocket bikes are basically really small dirt bikes. They are the same pocket bikes are just smaller. Dirt bikes are bigger and much more fun. :D
