How many cc’s?
Oct 30th, 2009 by Leo
Here’s a question for you: how many cc’s do YOU need to have fun on two wheels? And if you had to choose, would you rather have a liter bike in traffic or a racing scooter on the track?

OMG, that looks like so much fun! Well, except for the highside. You find great vids
By the look of whats going on there at the track, I would say I don’t need too many CCs at all.
The venue in which your using those CCs might change your reply, though. Even as I sit here thinking about my answer it keeps changing and I keep erasing it.
On the slab – a 125 for an hour and a half – probably not so fun. But out riding around on the backroads – heck yea, you could have a great time! I guess turns make all the difference in the fun-factor.
haha… Nice highside at 7:49. That doesn’t look too bad! He probably picked it up and got back out there!
If I had to choose bet. a liter bike in traffic and a scooter on the track – I’d jump on the scooter without question.
As for a daily rider in and out of the city, I think I need something upwards of 500cc to be happy. 125’s and 250’s are great fun – but I need a little more torque and top speed for every day.
