Title: Minimoto 50cc ?????
Post by: machine on July 10, 2005, 05:53:04 AM
Can someone explain to me what?s up with all the popularity with these 50cc mini bikes, and adult riders?
I guess it could be fun, just not my kind of fun.
I wish I had more power out of my 500, I can?t imagine a 50cc would have anything for me?
And the amount of money some of these guys are putting into them! GEEEEEEZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!

Well I guess there?s something for everyone out there.
Just seems strange?

I love driving a lil' 50. But, I'm not going to put more into the entire sport (of 50cc) than $500. People are into the $5k+ items. Not me either.

I am sick of all the magzine articles about 50cc($5000.00 toys) bikes. I think they should do more shoots outs with these bikes in stock trim with kid drviers not $5000.00 dollar toys.

In the 70's pit bikes were a thing the factory riders did,but just like today it got out of hand.It died off because of it,now its here again,but in todays world of "money is no object" I dont think it will die off.To each his own.
