Look what I just bought

[Mick DMember]

It is a bit rough but with a bit of TLC my young fella will love it,that is if his mother will let him ride it. It runs ok,just need a bit of a tidy up.

[Nick GilbertMember]

you’re a nutter Mick!!

[drewMember]

That looks a bit sus to me Mick, there is no PDS:woohoo:

is it supposed to be the 70cc model? do you know.

i’ve been tempted to buy a kit myself, but always find something else to throw my $$$$ at.

i picked up a cheap 49cc pocket motor to convert to a brush cutter, but if that dose not work out i’ve thought of devising to hook two of them together and making a twin pocket bike. twin pipes and all:blink: :silly:

[Mick DMember]

It is a long story,but basically I had to buy it of the guy so he could afford to buy something of me(ie advertising in the paper)
It cost me $300. Connor will have some fun with it and it can go in my crazy bicycle collection. KInda cheap when you consider my first Penny Farthing cost me $1800.

Dunno how many CC it is, I am thinking 25cc?

[DavidMember]

we could bore a stroke it:)

[Mick DMember]

I am already looking for a suspension front end for it…LOL
Marzocci would be good.

[DeanMember]

CR125 motor or one of your many XR6:woohoo:

He saw you coming for $300 :laugh: That bike when new probably didn’t cost that

If he’s got another one I’ll give him a $1000 for it, cheap at twice the price :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

$300 you are kidding me!!!!! :ohmy:

Check the laws on riding it Mick on roads or foot paths :huh:

$300 fark me :ohmy:

Listen I have suspended front end with a disc brake setup, that Lochie would sell you for $40 bucks or so, but you paid $300 for that and told people :ohmy: I reckon the suspension and brake setup is worth a $1000 or so

Never leave a fool with his money for they are easily parted

Let me know about the front end

[Mick DMember]

I only bought it for the fun factor and it is something Connor can fool around with.There are blokes cutting around town on them all over the place and they ride straight past the cop shop all the time. So they must be legal.

Exemptions

Motor assisted pedal cycles with electric or petrol engines are exempt from registration, provided the maximum engine output power does not exceed 200 watts. Riders must follow the same road rules as for pedal cycles without motors, including wearing a helmet.
