are also a relatively inexpensive to purchase and run,
and because of their compact size (approximately 20"
x 36") are easy to carry around (no transit van required).
The performance of
these little bikes does vary. The Minimotos for kiddies
and novices have little 37cc engines which can knock
out a tame 4 bhp, while the more serious experienced
racers opt for tuned 50cc engines outputing 12.5 bhp
which will enable the minimoto to top 75 mph, cripes!
Compared to other
forms of motorsport it is very easy to get involved
in minimoto racing. Many of the larger bike shows
and motorcycle events have events set up on temporary
tracks or in car parks where minimotos can be hired.
If you find that experience thrilling and would like
