http://www.pocketbikes.com

There are several manufacturers out there...ranging from about $1200-2800 on that site if I remember correctly.

Ummm pocketbikes rule, especially in full leathers. I guess you have not seen the video with the guys who ride on pocket bikes in Deal's gap.

um..... ysr50, nsr50, tzr50, tzm50, ksr-1, ksr-2, they are all basically a pocket bike, just alittle bigger.

my ksr-1 (2) will be on sale this comming may (ROAD LEGAL in B.C.).
12hp (80cc), brembo master cylinder, mikuni 29cm carb, 2 set of cylinders and pistons (one is bored out to the max, another could be bored alittle more, and the in/ex port is grinded. 2 set of chambers, one is racing, one is stock. 2 set of cowlings (one is green, one is black), and 2 set of frames, one is kawasaki green, one is black.

looking of a buyer.... someone who would keep it moving (THE ONLY KSR EVER IN NORTH AMERICA)

Can you carry a ysr50 on your shoulders???? I mean ysr50's are really fun and you can make them fast, but there's something about pocket bikes that attract a little more attention from enthusiasts. Especially knee dragging them in full leathers. Was Kris the one that veered off the road into the bushes?
