there's a local industrial estate, only part built, we go to a quiet corner down there, where we aren't disturbin anyone... Theres five of us, all racin round a custom circuit we made
got derestricted exhaust on mine, with straight thru fuel line, doin 40mph a foot off the floor is great

I'm 6'2", and it looks mad when I'm riding it, but yeah, they're ok once you get the hang of em... It does feel quick, acceleration varies depending on the sprocket you get on the bike, larger means more acceleration, smaller gives higher top speed IIRC

They're basically chainsaw engines in em, so you can go to a local lawnmower repair place for most parts, its what we do...
