My New Death Trap!!

Must resist buying powered skateboard!!!

Argh!

What fuel do they take, is it just normal petrol or do you have to mix it with anything?
 
Man that looks cool as a cool thing! Can just see myself using that to get across glasow!
I like this bit::
"capable of tailspins, doughnuts, slalom*"

How noisy are they? My mini moto is fairly noisy, my neighbours probably hate me.

Yes the council in our area is getting really hot on these. They sent letters round saying they are illegal (to use without private land) and won't be tollerated.
 
Just looked at the pics on fleabay and finally i understand how you are supposed to fit on it.
I think Good luck is in order as you will need it. I am glad i am to old to be talked into trying something like that.
The 4 wheel jobby looks top and i would try that for a laugh in a big open field but that 2 wheel foot through the wheels thing just looks weird to my old eyes. How do you get going.

Definately the legality of these must be suspect. Can't use it on pavements, cant use it on roads?

Well I've been out on it a couple of times now, and I think I've got the hang of it.

Starting off is the hardest thing. It takes a bit of practice. You can actually lean it on the ground, put your feet in, then twist it up and then move off.

I've made some modifications to it now. Some big scratches were being made on the bits sticking out in the middle, so I've added some alu checkplate to it to protect it.
 
Ok. Someone took some camphone pics of me on it this morning in the company carpark.

Hey Bug.
The pics look great but i have a question.
I have size 14 feet would they fit in the gap between the wheel do you think and whats the maximun load it can take weight wise.

Note.
Yes i have huge feet but they stop me falling forwards when i get aroused. ;)
