Pit bikes, what’s the popular option?

I like a small ATV. I use a Polaris Outlaw 110cc. It’s big enough for me and one more person, and has a rail to tow the tire cart.

Clutchless, EFI, easy.

 

"One more person" you say ...

BTW - that would not look good with white wheels.

 

Damnit Eddie. You are just asking someone to post “the” picture.

 

Actually, Imma sell the Broncho. Need to list it. Good reminder.

 

was the bad engrish intentional??

 

This thread has been begging for some small displacement bromance from the start. Im staying here in the treeline this time.

 

I had one of these in college. Mucho fun. Would make a good pit bike me thinks.

 

Zuma. End of discussion. It can hold a 12 pack on ice under the seat. [emoji106][emoji481]

Do not over look the fact the ZUMA 125 under seat cooler does have a drain hole built in.

Forward thinking on Yamahas part.

ZUMA

 

Zuma 125 with tail trunk. FI, electric start, trunk has enough space for warmers, etc...., and it's fast enough that I can leave the track on short jaunts if needed. Unfortunately it's trailer footprint is about the same size as a typical race bike. The downside is that there's kick start so don't leave it on.

 

I bought this thumper new for $1000. $25 upgraded carb, airbox delete, $50 open pipe and it purrs like a kitten.
Pulls my tipke cart with the tipke bicycle attachment and attaches to a hitch/pin that i made.

It's not the best for pit use but i also bought it as a trainer bike for a friend.

 

Nice Grom!

 

I assume that you bought it online - Got a link? If in person, got a source? Brand/model, etc, please.

 

2017 TaoTao Hellcat 125. I drove to a 'dealer' a few yrs ago in Indianapolis, but their website doesn't show it now.

Get yourself a 150cc "ZOMA" instead.

I think 'birdys' are all over the country and operate as little fly by night dealers.

I found this site for the bike i have.....https://www.superiorpowersports.com/125cc_Gas_Motorcycle_p/tt125mc-hellcat.htm

You put this chinabike next to a grom and it's crazy how almost all the parts are identical...Rearsets, muffler, bodywork, headlight, etc....I actually bought Honda axles to replace the chinabike axles. Just small little upgrades makes the bike better.

Hard to beat for a $1000. Replacement parts are plenty and cheap. Engines are only $200.. There's a chinabike forum full of resources too.

 

A real German would be drinking between clutch inputs

Grom has FI, not sure of any other significant difference between a $3500+ Grom and a $950 Knockoff Grom.

 

Scooter
I have an Elite 80
Carry gas cans and wheels easily
Can be tagged and insured
I have Antique tags on mine here in Virginia
That means no off road vehicle fee at VIR and since Summit Point has banned pit bikes of all kind outside the pits having a tag and insurance means it is a road legal vehicle that is not classified as a pit bike and I can ride outside the pits and even into town for a beer/food run

 

From the looks of it, I'd say Fit and Finish was not only a significant difference, it's night and day...totally different.
Cheap looks - it's what cheap products buys you...and I'm not talkin' 'bout the dash.

 

I do need to lose the graphics. I still have the protective film on the reflectors, turn signals, dash....I just recently took the protective film off my 7 yr old acer laptop screen.

I even have the 48 warning stickers on my '16 Tuono. OZ forged wheels, ohlins TTX, Ohlins factory forks....but stickers everywhere!!
