Go-Ped

Go-peds have got to be the best thing ever made by man kind! ...that is until you get bored of it and realise that you could have spent your money on something better. Just a word of warning to people who are prepared to purchase a go-ped. I bought a second hand liqumatic go-ped a couple of years ago, it was great fun and they are so easy to ride once you have gotten used to the feel of it. When you buy a go ped you might think of it as a mode of transport e.g. a way to get to friends houses or go to the shop. But once you have had it for a while you will start to realise its more hassle than its worth getting it out, checking it, fueling it up, starting it, warming ...  Read the complete review

i bought myself a big foot go-ped about 3 or 4 weeks ago now i got it and it was hard to get going but then i took it to a toyshop in the next town who is a northwest champion or something like that at racing go-ped sports. so i payed £120 to get a new carb and some other parts on top of buying my go-ped second hand but in good condition at £300. so i am telling you if you want a go-ped put the gear lever on the bars forward then on the engine put the switch to "close" and pull the starter about 3-5 times and it sould start it so switch it to "open" wait about 10 seonds and pull the excelarator all the way on it should cut on or rev the ...  Read the complete review

Go-Peds are well worth whatever you pay for them, and only buy goped. Other scooter makers usually use the centrufugal clutch for their drivetrain = poor acceleration, Go-Ped use a simple spindle system which will being you from 0-20mph in 4.9seconds...what a buzz these things are, and as for the bigfoot, just build some ramps and launch off! It is safe to do only on the bigfoot because the engine is hinged and there is no danger of crankshaft breakage.

Loads of "hop up" preformance parts available and ...  Read the complete review
