So I went over to Custom auto to check out these cool mini pocket bikes they had in stock, these things are so cool!! Apparently they can go up to 60miles per hour! :eek: Dam I want one!

Street legal? Not sure, but if guys can ride their bicycles on the streets, this thing would be pimping! haha

Anyway, one thing led to another and I ended up picking up a bunch of stuff for my RSX-S.

Carbon Fiber Type R Wing
Carbon Fiber Hood
Full OEM replica lip kit

I usually don't buy replica but I was impressed with the craftmanship of this fiberglass kit so I figured I save $1300 vs buying the geniune kit from Acura.

Everything should be on by next Friday and will post pics then. Now I'm looking at the Mugen Cup Kit for suspension and some Volk wheels. I have no idea what I have started:rofl:

The car is being driven by my girlfriend so I don't even know why I am modding it. The bug bit and things might just get progressively worse from here. :tongue:

60mph....that can't be. The 47cc without headlights are supposed to be much faster than the loaded 49cc's and the top speed of the 47 is only 43mph

And no, they aren't street legal.

Of course they aren't street legal, just drawing comparisons with cyclists;)

Anyway, 43mph is still impressive! I'll let Deetz know his info is off! haha

I saw that they only go 30km/h... I watched the vid where the guy cruises along side one of the guys on the mini bikes and he could only hit 30 km/h
