looks like you drag your elbows instead of your knees in the corners.

I just posted asking about these.

How much are they used? Are they pretty fun, reliable, and peppy?

my friend sold his used for about $600. it was in good condiotion and there are parts for them also. you can ugrade the cams, and all that neat stuff. i heard they were around $1000 for pretty new one. i guess oyu would have to know someone who had one to buy one. i dont know where you could find one, but they are fun. just not as fun as a real bike

$600 is definatly more affordable than $1M. Does anyone on here have one they want to sell? Or know of anyone. My tax return should be here soon... but it is the IRS, so.... This is just what I need, another fun filled money pit... hehe

Growing up, I would often see a kid with no legs riding one all over the place.He had the gears on the handle and he was into wheelies.....It looked really weird but for some reason everybody thought he deserved something like that to make him feel like he is important.....

Yeah, 1 speed. Maybe your thinking of something a little bigger, like a YSR50? And cams? 99.999% of pocketbikes are all 2-stroke. Only way to get suitable power outa the lil things I would buy one, but i know i would get tired of it.
