    Given that I can never make up my mind sometimes, I have two play vehicles:

    It’s hard to explain the fun factor man but I’m all smiles when I ride this. If it was the only motorcycle I had, yeah, it would kind of defeat the purpose, but my neighbor and I take them out on a little mountain route near our house and the twisties are just a blast.

    Also, runs on 1 qt of oil, couple gallons of gas and all the replacement parts are super cheap.

    It's basically just a blank slate to build into whatever kind of silly little grin machine you want. They're hilariously inexpensive to buy and run, and you can do whatever with them. Plus, we all know (except maybe these Harley guys) that it's loads of fun to ride a small bike fast

    There aren’t many chopped 4 door Mercs so they stand out but unless you lived in Hawaii you don’t know this particular car. It was built down here. A922F142-9A34-466E-802E-217D93BA08EE.jpgD400CE81-F2F7-4105-8646-5D12C3CFB353.jpg

    I see a lot of awesome fun toys. I'm not at that baller level yet.

    I do have this 2003 Toyota MR2 Spyder. Fun, small, lightweight car to drive. Handling and steering makes it a true joy. I have a performance built engine and turbo, among other things, to throw into it.

    Damn I’m 28. Maybe someday I’ll get a second play car. My Tacoma is my DD and fun car. All my extra money now goes into my new house with the wife.

    Love this thread though. Gives me something to look forward too once I have money again someday lol.

    mini bikes are damn near some of the funnest times you can have with your close on...
    for the price they cost, it boggles my mind why you don't see them as much here in the states.
    in other countries they are way more abundant

    But will yours do brake stands and wheelies?? My BW (gone to new home) with 70cc barrel, 17mm carb (up from 12.5), technigas chrome pipe and lots and lots and lots of clutch work, variators, belt and spring tuning. My buddy is a top shelf motorcycle mechanic and his has an Ohlins and custom modded forks and some motor work. He was pretty annoyed when mine walked away from his.

    If you want any advice on speed bits or tuning PM me. Doing the motor is easy. Matching the transmission / clutch to match is the real work.

    I set mine up for mid to high end. It will wheelie with with just variation setup and stock motor in the past. If I really try I will wheelie at 50mph but I’m not about that life.

    Still dialing it in. At first I couldn’t get it to turn at all. Literally it wouldn’t lean over and stay down. Last time I had it out it was much better and can now slide the rear predictably.
