    Selling FS: Mini Motos and Mini Choppers

    I'm thinking of importing some mini motos and mini choppers but need your opinion on whats hot, whats not and pricing etc.

    I wanna give the best deal possible so I've quickly put something together online which includes 4 models, 2 motos and 2 choppers, theres the full specs and proposed pricing.

    Please post back here any comments, if you might be interested and anything else you wanna say.

    Your prices look decent for on-line, i think you'll sell a few at those prices, but it does seem like every other fad that passes, a hell of a lot of people seem to be selling these.

    I already know 1 supplier that has the superbike style ones for £200 and a mate is supposed to be getting a supply for sub £200 this week, a further mate says his brother's(this one down south) local motor spares supplier also has them in from £200-300.

    Mini-motorbikes seem very cheap at the moment, the above mentioned mate also has a supply of PW80 size, 70cc 4 stroke bikes, which are a bargain at £700 a pop, in at the moment.

    just check out local ad papers and see if there is competition in the area.. I think they are decent price...

    bikes are hot sellers at the mo, still prefer quad bikes though..(which i can get hold of quite cheap..czar)

    czar and myself discussed this earlier. I agree with you guys. Lots and Lots of ppl seem to be selling these atm. My personal opinion is that they are not worth the hassle unless you can undercut the competition extensively.

    Personally... I wonder who the market is aimed at?

    Grown ups look like a twat riding them, and younger kids are a bit a risk being on a petol bike!!

    I know a few people who would buy one for their kid (especially at those prices) If only they were less risky.

    I love the chopper and I love the prices... but I have always wondered why thier ain't mini trikes or mini quads about to fit the gap in the market?

    If ya look at trikes or quads, you either have the choice of a crappy plastic battery thing, or a propper £700+ petrol thang.

    I know you don't make the things... but if you could find such a product at simular prices, I think you will be on more of a winner?

    ... and I for one would be bitting your hand off!

    Done some extensive research today and you're right the competition is hot and it isn't gonna be worth the hassle.

    Gonna close this thread and forgot I ever mentioned it.
