ello, whilst im not racing or trackdaying im looking at getting the cheapest fix available that doesnt require alot of kit like a van etc so looking at getting a pitbike and whole load of friends are looking to follow once I get one.

I know a few peeps on here pitbike and not sure what to get, from what I can tell the SuperStomp 140cc seems to be the best pick without having to go over £800 can anyone give me ome general advise on this as still not sure if I should consider other brands etc?

where would I get 10inch rims from to put road tyres on etc?

When I've been looking I've just had a look at the spec of second hand ones and compare what you're getting with others.

Do still want to get a supermoto pitbike, but no cash at the moment and certainly no time to use it right now either Sad.

Lots of pitbikes out there to suit different needs. What type are you after? Where are you planning on riding? etc I dabbled for quite a few years.

Well hoping for a 12bhp bike that i can use for supermoto and dirt.
Obviously cheap as i can, lots of parts available, not sure where to get bits from and how much im likely to spend. Wouldnt mind a couple of races if its cheap would be a giggle but nothing serious and wouldnt bother me if i didnt.

Just hoping this will be good training tool to get me fit for a properbike but deffo want to get on a kart track to tear it with some elbow action

Stomp or DemonX are good. Do not, I repeat DO NOT ever buy something called Akuma Assassin. Made of wire & spit. Have a look on pitbikeclub.co.uk, loads of t055ers & chavs but there are some decent chaps on there that know what they're on about. I used to have a 125cc DemonX, was a hoot & could chuck it about. Parts break easily but don't cost the earth, which is a bonus.
