Mini pocket bikes are targeted at those who are too small or too young to hold the handles of a normal motorbike. A mini bike is the most stylish of the other lots of pocket bikes, and it is an advancement to the concept of pocket bikes. Mini pocket bikes are not only appropriate and fast, but they are a realistic way to begin motorcycle racing and riding. These bikes are more popular for off-road riding.

Mini pocket bikes weigh around sixty-five pounds, with a height of about four feet. The diameter of wheels is about ten inches. The mini pocket bike can be driven at speeds of twenty-six to sixty miles per hour, depending on the engine horsepower of the bike, which ranges from 2hp to 8hp.

These bikes have a fully adjustable rear swing-arm suspension, which provides the exact amount of dampening and street feel to suit each individual rider’s tastes. This racing suspension setup is, in fact, the first in this class of racing sport motorbikes. The mini pocket bike has become a craze among the new generation. The passion of the new generation is to get a mini bike and then fully modify it into a super pocket bike. There are many additions available to increase the power of the mini motor bike.

The additions available to increase the power of the mini motor bike are custom saddles, headlights, chrome for everything, and engine kits.

Mini pocket bikes have banned in some cities, with the bikes becoming more popular and faster; and other cities have imposed strict safety rules for riding these mini motor bikes. For instance, a rider of these bikes should be at least sixteen years old and riders are prohibited from riding after sunset. Children under eighteen should operate the bikes only under the supervision of an adult. Wearing of a helmet and other protective gears like elbow pads, knee pad and cloves, are a must for safety reasons.
