My neighbour Michael is into pseudo downhill.
... and in this neck of the bush the XC trails default to ... terminal velocity.

We have enough trouble in our trail advocacy efforts with rabid ideological greenies trying to keep mtbs locked out of the bush becasue they keep confusing us with motos, without them actually being motos.
Those who fight for your trail access WILL NOT thank you for this. It is a Bad Idea.
Note the caps => Bad Idea.
Keep it on the farm and off the trails... please. You've no doubt heard teh phrase "don't bet the farm"... well, if you ever hit someone with one of these unregistered motorbikes, you will have bet the farm, and lost. And probably have set back advocacy efforts several years once it gets into the tabloid papers.

In case you missed the point...
THIS DOES NOT HELP THOSE WHO WORK ON YOUR BEHALF TO IMPROVE TRAIL ACCESS.
Get a moto and ride moto trails if you're that desperate.

If you can't bring it, don't sing it.
Go weigh your drink bottle holders.

The sound of a mountain bike two stroke bark
The throttles were open and the clutch was dropped
No one could catch them, not even a cop.

I bet they would be fun once or twice, but having some tinny little 50cc motor ringing in my ear would drive me nuts...I finished 80cc motox cross when I was like 10!.

All I have ringing in my ear is the sound of self important Nancys, that think the way they have fun on two wheels is far superior to the next persons 2 wheeled adventure?toolonglegs wrote: having some tinny little 50cc motor ringing in my ear would drive me nuts
This sounds like somebody with limited bike skills!Pretty boring future. I bet they would be fun once or twice,
Maybe your time would be better spent checking that your chain ring bolts exactly match the colour of yor new titanium QR skewers.
