Title: Pocket Bike FJ?
Post by: FJTillDeath on July 26, 2011, 10:23:57 AM
Anybody know if there are any pocket bike FJ replicas? Ive searched and cant find any :negative:

Otherwise does anybody own a pocket bike? I am considering buying one for the fun of it and would like to know if there is any worth to them..

Yea, Tim C has one. Looks normal sized to me but he calls it a pocket bike.

Haha normal sized indeed but where did you get it? and Im looking for the smaller ones that they do the minimoto gp races on like the 50cc 2 strokes. I know a person looks stupid racing on one but they can be quite fun and some can actually put out as much speed as a full sized 125cc bike(well the not so good ones). the pocket bike FJ looks about the size of a smallish 125cc bike..

Originally i found it on the XS1100 UK forum, as i've got 2 i'm a member, but search on YouTube.
I've searched the net and YT and not come across this FJ minimoto, maybe others will have more luck.
Are you sure it was an FJ?

I havent had any luck finding a pocket bike FJ I personally believe at this moment it would be easier to buy a cheap make and the make mini FJ moulds to fit to the cheap pocket bike... Otherwise since pocket bikes only weigh like 20 odd kgs (approx 44 pounds) anybody got a rough idea how much shipping would cost to south africa? there are some nice models out for like  :good2:$250 (just under 2000 rand)
