Pocket Bike

My brother-in-law bought one of these miniature motorcycles off of the internet for about $250 (including S&H). He said the ones he saw in stores were about $400. They look almost too small to ride, but I fit comfortably on it and they have pedals for your feet. They weigh less than 50 lbs. They are easy to maneuver and you only have to worry about the gas, the brakes, and to tilt when doing turns. The top speed is supposed to be 40 mph. I didn't wear any safety gear, but it would be a smart idea. We just rode it around the neighborhood and then went to a church parking lot. There are also some bikes that are a few inches taller, that you can shift and they go up to 70 mph. Minibikes are banned in some states and many cities, including New York City and the entire state of California.
