Motor Pocket Bikes

motor pocket bikeMini-motor bikes, or also known as motor pocket bikes, are a miniature copy of a motorcycle. This mini monsters were built for an individual that are young but eager to ride a big bike and for people that are not tall enough to handle a big bike.

The traditional mini-motor bikes use a four stroke engine that turns the rear wheel by a chain. Like some go carts, mini bikes were invented and built by an enthusiast from garage spare parts.

Motor pocket bikes only weigh around sixty-five pounds and are about four feet in height. They have a ten inch wheel in diameter. Each pocket bike has their own horsepower ranges from 2hp to 8hp but often it speeds from twenty-six up to sixty miles per hour. Mini motor bikes today have evolved into different specialized types and designs with the concept of mini motorcycle.

Here are some types of mini bikes from today:

1. Minimoto – inspired by sport bikes and it is ideally made for racing. These bikes have a usual size of less than 50cm in height and 1 meter in length, packs a 39cc to 50cc two-stroke engine and has a maximum speed of 70 kilometers per hour.

2. Pit bikes – were designed and made for moving around the pit areas of motor racing tracks and events, similar to small scooter.

3. Mini bike – a combination of minimoto and a pit bike but it has a wheel size of 10 inches in front and rear with supermoto slick tires fitted. This type of mini bikes were perfectly made for competitions and racing, equipped with high-tech catch tanks to avoid possible fluid spillages.

4. Mini chopper – mini bikes that look like chopper bikes, but just smaller.

5. Midi motos – these types of bike has the same style as mini-moto bikes but they are a little bigger. They still are small compared to the real big bikes that they replicate. The other different thing about the midi motos compared to mini motos is the height of the seat and they started midi motos with 47cc two-stroke engine that can run around forty-eight to sixty-four miles per hour.

6. Quad bikes – miniature replica of a four wheeled off-road motorcycles or all terrain bike.

Always be cautious when riding a motor pocket bike because even they’re small they can still do some serious damages. There are couples of cities that banned mini bikes in their area, for the miniature bikes are getting popular most children ride it with no proper safety. For children that are below eighteen years old be sure to ride a motor pocket bike with an adult supervision. Ride it with protective gears.

    Are these not bikes not dangerous as hell, tiny racing engines, on tiny frames, more power than you can imagine but with little consideration to safety. I don’t think I would even consider letting my son ride this powerful killer machine.
