hiya guys went down to thw ace cafe this morning lots of people there was looking out for a few of you bikes but could’nt see any left about 1230 … then took my boy over the car park with radio control cars and thats when i spotted my next hobby mini moto they look good fun .there was a bloke at work nocking them out for £200. wish i had brought one now just cool for me and the kids … only doing it for the kids
They are fun, but beware; cheap ones go bang often and getting spares can be difficult! Also, the law doesn’t cater for them, they’re completely illegal on the pavements and roads, with a lot of trouble happening lately with people having them confiscated when using them on public highways.
good point jay didnt think of the spares . i am a bit like homer just see it and want one
" people having them confiscated when using them on public highways"
Surely just getting your pocket bike confiscated is a soft option compared to the hatfull of points and fines you would get if Traffic really threw the whole book at you…any serial recidivists on here care to calculate total max points available for getting caught on a public pavement without registration, helmet, insurance, mot, road legal anything ? Just getting no insurance is iirc 6 points AND the nice insurance companies then load your policy +40% for a few years, meaning the cost of the initial fine is ultimately doubled or tripled.
Kinda depressing isn’t it, doh. Where’s the fun!
