Could always replace it with the quality Blata version I have for sale on here !!!
yes they are good fun, trust me that 40 mph when your only inches above the ground feels like double this when your on the bike !! just dont seem to find the time to fit using it as well as persuing all my other interests etc in with my full time job / wife / kid/ walking the dog etc !!!

I sold my Blata 4.2 just a couple of months ago and have to admit I kinda regret it - the thing was a BEAST!!

lots of go kart tracks have seen the gap in the market and have bike nights.

Not everyone uses them on the roads

Could you make one road legal though? Lights and a Q plate should do it

we have a mini moto track about 1/2 a mile away. Free unlimited use from 5.00 pm until 9.00 am. Doesn't stop the **** next door from letting his kids use the street as a race track though

I had a mini-harley for a couple of months. Rode it to work a couple of times cos the scoob was in for a gearbox. Felt a bit stupid but it was a 9 minute ride or a 30 min walk and I am amazingly lazy

Nearly killed a boy on a mini moto up my road. Zooming round the bend at night with no lights.

Did you have insurance, MOT, Tax, registration etc when driving to work ?

Had one, also had a collar bone where it was meant to be.
Sold it and now have a big powerkite and landboard tbh bit more fun but still a fair chance of injury

nope none of that business, you cant register something like that so insuring it is not possible.

Only popped up the road, over the hill down an alley and into the carpark. Saved me a walk when it was cold.

Novelty wore off after a few days, and the scooby was fixed Dont ever see em round here tho, get loads of crossers over the marshes so I think they prefer them.
