Re: Pocket Rocket
yeah...just wait til your piston rings shatter from a lot of full throttle abuse..my 
to make it little better is to just take all the plastics off,and the front brake it gave me trouble out of the box.and MAKE SURE YOUR PEGS AND HANDLE BARS ARE TIGHT! other wise they'll strip out within a couple weeks then you'll really have fun when you have nothing to put your feet on and your handle bars are moving all over the place...

Re: Pocket Rocket
I've had mine for a while and no complaints. Its an X2.Kind of beat it up. But a 12 0 clock bar on it. Do a little stuntin. Broke the throttle cable and the windsheild. But it makes a good pit bike at the drag races.

Re: Pocket Rocket
Piece of ****. Biggest waste of 400 bucks I ever spent! Hunk of **** just stopped workin one day. I sold it to my buddy for 30 bucks. Yeaaa... def wish I would have just gone the extra couple bikes and gotten my 50 then instead of blowin it on that thing. Sorry to hear you wasted your money like the rest of us. warn everyone you can. If you're not gettin it for a spoiled *** 4 year old... don't get it!

Re: Pocket Rocket
Got an X2..... Piece of chit!!!! Throttle cable broke, brakes suck, only goes 30-35mph, carb is a pain in the *** to adjust right.
This weekend we're takin the little 49cc motor out, cutin the frame, lowering the motor mount plate and puting a 5hp Briggs & Stratton in it with a centrifigual clutch. should run around 75mph. The motor os from my go cart and it ran close to 60mph.
But don't recomend anyone buy one unless you know that thier JUNK and will take lots of work to make them right.

Re: Pocket Rocket
Ppppppppffffffffffffffffff! Remember Fellas, What Pay for Is What You Get....$250-$400 On A Pocketbike....is Stupid. If You Want The Real Deal, And Dont Want The Price To De-value, Then Maybe Save An Extra 100, And Buy A Blata Or Polini. Real Euro Pocketbike. My Cheapest One Is About $1300....and My Highest One Runs For $2800 With Everything It Has On It! Yea, I Kinda Regret Spending That Much Money On Those Things, But They Dont Break Down, And Have Tons Of Aftermarket Parts For Them.
