bike thing

i tried one of those bike things with pedals and external engine. they are rubbish. engine is silent and i couldnt even find the exhaust.
throttle responce is awful, top speed is pants, accelaration is lame and tyres are only any good at walking pace.

having said this brakes are mad you can do stoppies and all sorts. turning circle is about 3cm and its great for wheelies.
has anyone else tried one of thes "bi-cycle" things and what did you think??

Bought one years ago...loved it but then found out that it was better off gathering dust and cobwebs in the shed (So I now look like a salad dodger)
Best I get it out and start using it again for the sake of another cow fitting into my leathers

Last one I saw even had missing clocks, no engine tail light nothin left... just the skeleton.

its crazy aint it how thay can get away with it. i heard of a guy in the pub you dont have to pay tax!!! insurance!!! or evem do a test.

mine's a bit down on power, thinking of getting an aftermarket exhaust
