NSR will be a PITA... unless you get the new NSR100 4 stroke. i would take the Zuma, or get your hands on a xr/crf 50

[Doc]

Why would an NSR be a pain?

[xxdcmast]

I would choose one of those little 4hp mini bikes from dumb and dumber Im actually looking for one now.

Whatever is most dangerous, as it will likely provide the most laughs and memorable stories. I cant remember the last time I told a story about how SAFE something was.

With that said, I'd definitely get the scooter for its horrible handling, or the fiddy for stunting and possible ensuing injuries.

A bicycle cause you won't be able to annoy the people who actually sleep at the track!

Perfect! You and Gino can race around the pits!

[Awesome]

My favorite pitbike is my bicycle with a small headlight. Nice to warm up and stretch for the races too.

i prefer my suspensionless J.C. Whitney circa 1970 mini bike with 6.5 hp honda motor salvaged from a industrial power washer. it's like a paint shaker that power wheelies.

Get something with an auto clutch, cause carrying tires is a lot easier..

I recommend the XR/CRF 70. The fiddys are a little twitchy

g-man

[Doc]

Good points!!!

Automatic and a little bigger.

Are pocketbikes automatic?

Pocketbike: too small, loud, annoying, and not easy to ride overall in the pits.

Fiddy: *my choice* Easy to ride, auto, can race outside of Loudon, not super easy to carry big things on. quiet

TTR125: *choice 2 for me* Large, manual tranny, used to be fun to ride around dirtparking lots (before that was banned). not top choice

Bicycle: *choice 3 for me* quiet, easy, can do tricks when bored, not easy to carry stuff.

baby Quad: It's a quad, nuff said.

Goped: *My Dad's choice* small, quick, easy to scoot around, lil louder, impossible to carry stuff on

Nice Alex, Thanks.

I may be trading your Ascot for a 2004 Honda Ruckus.

id have to nominate petes goped for that. nothing like flintstone'ing the brakes. ahh i love that thing

A mountainbike is great to keep your legs loose and as mentioned above their quite.

....One thing you do need to think about is how are you getting you tires when you have new ones mounted?
Last year I had a 3 wheeler and welded a tire/rim mount on it and it worked great.
Otherwise your gonna need to use your car/truck to get tires mounted.
You can always get a pull a long cart for any small 4 wheeler.

SO NICE!!

[Doc]

So do we need to have a quiet time rule? No motors running after 10pm?

[Doc]

So how about a TTR 90?

I can get one cheap!

Would it make a good pitbike?

How about a minimotard racer? i know there were some classes it could run in the "Masters of the mini races"...

[a13x]

Sort of like Strawberry Shortcake and her Bake-Off with Crepes Suzette, you could have a Post-Off with Firefly.

[OreoGaborio]

I dunno what's funnier... that post, or just the fact that Doc just got dissed by someone who is capable of making a Strawberry Shortcake vs Crepes Suzette reference

[Doc]

AND he had pictures?

You call me a post whore?

[TheIglu]

I'd probably worry about racing, your track bike or getting a job before this
