Looking at buying a bike, Help please.

Ok so i decided i was gonna buy a bike because everyone else seems to be getting them, ive narrowed it down to 3.

Bike one (so far my favorite) http://www.buyscooteronline.com/110c...ke-801144.html
Bike Two (my next Favorite) http://www.buyscooteronline.com/110c...ke-801153.html
and Bike 3 (My third favorite) http://www.buyscooteronline.com/110c...ke-801145.html

I definatly want to go with a 110 cc because they are the fastest, 60-65 MPH topend. WOOT
Anyone know of any other fast Super Pockets that i might be overlooking.
Tom?

When you go to race Tom there is one huge bonus!!!! There is no reverse to worry about launching in. No further comment.

Re: Looking at buying a bike, Help please.

Im not buying it from Ebay, I found a local distributer that is selling the 110cc ones for like $560, Im thinking im just gonna buy the first one, because its the biggest one they have and being that im 6'2" it would help to just get a bigger one, They say it goes 60 mph with a 300 lb guy on it, this should be fun.

Re: Looking at buying a bike, Help please.

Here is my suggestion for you tom. It suits your style, also has no reverse, won't tip over and since you are used to an auto 2G, the speed will feel about right.

Re: Looking at buying a bike, Help please.

LOL thanks for the encouragement guys. LOL
Im getting 2 of the first one i posted, Ive been talking with the guys that race these and its gonna be a fun season. Grown up bikes are for grown ups, and as most of you know im about as grown up as a 4 year old. Also haveing a big bike in california is pretty much suicide because of the stupid drivers and the even stupider laws (Bikes are allowed to go in between cars on the highway, and able to pass in the same lane as a car.)
But the Super Pocket Bikes seem like a lot of fun and will be cool to get mods for it.
