is that a super pocketbike or a regular one? i'm picking up 3 super ones to do cf fairings for my partner shop located 2 hours from my place.

supposedly the super pocketbikes can support 300lbs, which is just up my alley.

Over here everyone rides around those really tiny minibikes. They look like theyre for 5 year olds. It took me a minute to even realize that was a minibike. Compared to what everyone rides out here that thing is huge. How much was that? Around here the really tiny ones are like $200.

I bought it from a local place that also sells most of them on Ebay...

http://www.globalpremier.com

It is the one with the CVT transmission-- so it was only $425. I also had to pay tax on it because I live in the same state I bought it in.

Its pretty big-- and says it holds up to 250lbs so unless you a giant fat person you will fit on this bike.

This one is the largest pocket bike available-- I got the big one for the comfort reason.. on the small ones-- they are really not too comfortable. This one feels rather natural. I still gotta get used to riding it though!

It has headlights (bright as hell :D

Insurance laws (in the US) vary state from state. For example, in washington state, liability is required on a cars and trucks. However, on government vehicles, motorcycles, and farm equipment does is not required to have liability insurance. collision is not required for any vehicle. Im not sure how much power a canadian province has, so this could be a fedral or local law where you live.

the new ninja x1 super pocketbike have VIN numbers on them now. here in california, you need insurance for certain models since they have fully functional taillights, headlights, and turnsignals. plus they're doing a LOT of stuff to have them banned here in cali.
