I am not impressed with all of the young men that I see riding around, doing tricks on these little kids motorcycles. Yeah you can argue that they are hopped up and are hardly for kids but then LOOK AT HOW TINY they are! Don't tell me you haven't been hurt on one of these toys that were engineering with KIDS in mind!!
I know a few people that have broken bones on these things purely becuase they failed to get their feet on the pegs or their body in the proper position for landings from aerial meneuvers. And the sad part is that its often broken JOINTS! That means that these injuries will haunt them for the rest of their lives in most cases. And it's not manly to claim that you broke your back or your knee on a FIFTY in your buddies backyard. Not at all.
It's just boring to me. BUT that's just my opinion. I have nothing against people that enjoy what they do.
