Anywhere locally we can buy one these pocket rockets? I want one and I know in the states you can buy them at the autozone for 200 bucks for the cheap knockoffs.

Yeah, the real ones are like $2000. I haven't seen 'em over here, but that doesn't mean they're not available. I would ask Linda. I think she's been looking into getting one.

We have been looking at pocketminibikes.com When Nick gets back to the States we are going to ship one to him and have him send it over for us... That way he can break it up for the post office... You can also go on the German ebay and get one from here... Jerry might know where you can get one here... He will read this post tonight and give you some suggestions...

Kewl! Looks like I'll be buying one shortly. :D Thanks for the link! He must not advertise it on his website though that looks more like syclone's and everything else.

The autozone ones are 449, but still cheap knock offs.

We have choppers too, same price, just as cheap.

Trying to talk my wife into one for my son for X-mas...hopefully it will happen. Would rather get him a go cart but have had no luck finding one over here for less than 1000Euros. IF it was around 300-400Euros that would be the ticket.

Hm i dont think you will find a good one for 300-400euro.Sometimes there are some cheap Go karts at ebay germany.

Hm are you sure you want the Pocket Bike for your Son :wink:

I think that I'd be alittle to big for those small bikes. My son loves motorcycles, I would much prefer to see him on a go -cart but I would have to find a decent one first. Nice part about the go cart...I can take it out too!!!!!! :twisted: :burnout: If anybody see a decent one please let me know....I only have a few shopping months left till X-mas :lol:

Some of those pocket bikes will handle up to a 300 lb rider. For anyone that's been up to racewars, Darrel rides his all over the place up there. A grown man fits, and the chicks dig 'em.
