Pocketbike Mini-Moto Racing (VIDEO #2)
This is the second version of my very popular pocket bike racing story. This feature aired on a syndicated TV show called “Daytime.” I figured after the “Overdrive” version of the story was so popular I would post this version too. The event was held by SEPRA (southeastern pocketbike racing association) and it was at Primus Racing facility in Palmetto, Florida. By the way….I’m not an expert in mini-motos or pocketbikes, I don’t know where you can get them, and I don’t know how much they cost, I only shot and edited the story. Thanks. -Ben

The 50cc pocket bike is actually designed to look like a mini motorcycle. They are usually made of steel or aluminum and are sleek and small. These bikes do not have much speed but are a lot of fun in riding over the hills.
Pocket bikes are very popular nowadays as they give you the same kind of sensation as when you ride a motorcycle but only they are little slower. You should buy a pocket bike according to your size and weight. Different varieties are available with a host of dealers and you should be able to find a bike, which suits your style.
The different types of Pocket bikes
Pocket bikes may be run either on gas or electricity. Pocket bikes that are run on gasoline will be cost effective as they use up very little gas and also will be faster than on the ones run on electricity.
The bikes that run on battery are cheaper than the gas powered ones but they are just as exciting to ride on. Moreover, they are better for children as they do not pickup high levels of speed.
Pocket bikes may be purchased in the department stores or motorcycle shops. But before buying, decide what you are going to use it for. With this in mind gather more information from the dealers. This helps you in choosing the safest and the ideal pocket bike for yourself to have fun with.
