The Tornado Midi Moto Bikes - 110cc & 125cc of Performance

Midi motos were then introduced as an alternative to pocket bikes & mini motos. They are very similar in style to mini motos though slightly bigger (the seat height is about a foot to two foot higher than a mini moto), however they are still much smaller in comparison to a full size motorbike of which they are attempting to emulate

These midi moto bikes started off with 47cc 2 stroke engines (capable of around 30-40 mph) but as time has passed and technology increased these bikes can have 4 stroke engines in 110cc-125cc range (around 50-60mph and some, with modifications, can do a whopping 70mph!).

2 models stocked by www.funbikes.co.uk, one of the UK’ leading online stockists of midi motos are the tornado midi moto in both 110cc and 125cc.

This Tornado 110cc is one of the fastest midi sized bikes we have sell.

The engine is a Honda design Loncin 110cc air-cooled, four-stroke, and has proven track record in terms of reliability. The 110cc in this small lightweight chassis equals amazing performance. With a 4-speed gearbox with manual clutch, it has an approximate top speed of 50 mph which can be performance tweaked using spares and upgrades available through us here at Fun Bikes.

The Tornado 110cc Midi Moto has many of the features you’d expect on a larger road bike such as front and rear suspension, front headlights, speedo and an electric start. It even has a digital display to show you what gear you’re in!

The brakes are hydraulic with vented discs. Highly polished meaty 3 spoke alloys; have been fitted with Bridgestone replica bt010 tread tyres for plenty of grip. In fact the rear tyre is extremely wide, (145/50-11), and its thick chunky chain and massive under-seat, twin exhaust system just adds to the visual appeal.

The 125cc Tornado midi moto is a step up from the 110cc version.

Also packing a 4 stroke single cylinder air cooled engine, but increased to 125cc, this bike can be pushed up to 70mph with performance modifications available from us.

Many of the other feature from the 110cc remain the same such as the hydraulic disk brakes, 4 speed manual gear box and clutch and same high performance tyres

The Tornado 125cc is the perfect choice for when you want more power and performance from your midi moto.

Fun Bikes stock performance parts for all our midi motos and when you buy from us you get the full bonus of our expertise and after care services.

The New KXD 50 Mini Dirt Bike & KXD 125R Dirt Bike

The KXD 50 is one of the latest mini dirt bikes from Funbikes. Available in a variety of colours these stylish mini dirt bikes are designed for kids 10 years and up, and hold a weight of about 13 stone safely (they can also be ridden by adults within the weight limits). This bike is great for stunts, wheelies, doughnuts etc.

There are 2 different models, one with smaller wheels the other with larger wheels but otherwise performance is the same for both styles. Each has a newly designed frame and big bore exhausts, adjustable rear shock absorbers, upside front forks, front and rear disc brakes and chrome handlebars.

Safety feature include a retractable throttle and rocker style kill switch.

The engine is identical to an air-cooled mini-moto, though the dirt bike has more low down pulling power with instant acceleration, and fantastic wheelie power. What’s more it has no gears, it's fully automatic - just rev n go.

The bikes dimensions are 56cm (height) and 112 cm (length.)

What’s more if you buy from funbikes then you get full after sales service and free technical backup, and of course we stock all the spares and repairs you may need for your KXD mini dirt bike, as well as a great range of performance parts.

If a mini dirt bike isn’t your thing then we have the KXD125R dirt bike. This full sized adult dirt bike is built on a heavily developed race winning chassis. The engineers have fitted a 125cc Lifan high performance engine, to give you power to match this dirt bikes cool looks!

Like its 50cc counterpart, the KXD 125R dirt bike comes in several colour schemes and each of these 4-stroke bikes can hit the 60 mph mark.

Other features of this dirt bike include:


> 125cc High Performance 4-Stroke Engine
> All Up N-1-2-3-4 Gearbox
> Unique KXD Frame
> Big Bore BBR Thumper Exhaust
> Mikuni Carb
> Pro-Link Style Rear Suspension
> Upside Down Oil Filled Forks
> Twin Pot Brake Calipers
> Fold-back Clutch and Brake Levers
> Alloy Gear Lever
> Adjustable Rear Shock
> Extended Rear Swing Arm
> Engine Bash Plate
> High Strength Gold Chain
> 14 Inch Front Wheel / 12 Inch Rear Wheel
> 80 cm Seat height

Whats more we are currently selling these bikes at £100 off the price for the first 5 of each colour sold, but when they are gone they are gone and it’s back to full price I’m afraid.

Remember that like our mini dirt bikes these full size 125cc dirt bikes have the same after service and technical help that all Funbikes products have.

50cc Kids Off Road Buggies - Just What Santa Ordered?

Christmas is just around the corner, yep scary to think, but it’s only a few months away now! So what to get the kids? How about a buggy? No not a push chair!

Well Funbikes now stock a range of kids off road buggies, and they definitely don’t need mum to push you around in them!

The 50cc Micro RV buggy is intended for children under 12 and is fully CE approved (we do bigger buggies, but might be better to get the kids used to the smaller ones).These small kids off road buggies are typically meant for garden use, or small fields with adult supervision (and permission to use the land!). For added safety it has a remote control engine cut out and starter (for the parents), full roll cage and seat belts. Unlike many other kids off road buggies, this one is EC approved and has both rear wheels driven by the engine (single-wheel engine driven buggies are useless for off road).

Other key features are:

* Automatic transmission.
* Fully adjustable suspension.
* Remote control stop and re start.
* Adjustable sliding bucket seats.
* Adjustable throttle limiter.
* Adjustable throttle and brake pedals.
* Low noise engine ideal for home garden use.
* Dimensions: 1580mm (L) 950mm (W) 1160mm (H)

This off road buggy comes in black or silver trim, has 2 seats and looks cool. The 2 seats mean that though the kids might have to take turns driving, 2 can share the ride. Best of all you can be assured of quality and value when purchasing one from www.funbikes.co.uk.

Why? Well here are a few examples:

* Full assembly of this off road buggy by a qualified mechanic.

70cc Kids Quad Bikes from Funbikes

The Funbikes' 70cc quad bike is a much improved model not only makes your Quad bike experience effortless but much more stable and therefore safer!

The new chasis gives unrivalled stability and better handling, meaning it is less likely to overturn, which will be a comfort to parents. The new improved front suspension is fantastic, giving easier steering and a much more comfortable ride overall.

The improvements don’t stop there. The installation of rear disk brakes as opposed to the drum brake, gives more control whilst braking, along with a lever that is effortless, should you need a sudden stop. The rear parental safety tether allows for engine cut out which is good for use with younger children. This range of children's quad bikes now has fully automatic gears; as invariably younger children will not know how to change gear.

This new kids' quad looks great too. Be the meanest looking rider around with our new ‘beefy’ front bull bars and more aggressive looking plastics and larger rear mud guards.

The Funbike 70cc kids quad bike is fitted with a Honda Design OEM Engine with a high-grade alloy block. This is one of the most simple and reliable ‘bullet-proof’ engines ever made.

Though this ATV is aimed at a typical age range of between 4–11yrs old, amazingly this kids quad bike can carry most adults without it noticably affecting the performance; impressive considering just how fast this bike will go. For this reason the 70cc quad bike has been built with an integral Throttle Restrictor which will allow your child to go at a slower pace to begin with whilst they get used to the quad bike and its handling. This gives the parent time to assess their own child’s individual capabilities and have control.

The safety aspect doesn't stop there. The quad bike also includes front and rear lights and a brake light for use in conditions with low light. At funbikes we carry a full range of child and adult size crash helmets, body protectors and knee and elbow pads so you really can take care of your child as much as possible whilst they enjoy this fantastic bike!

So check out www.funbikes.co.uk today and see our range of kids quad bikes and safety accessories, as well as our range of mini-motos, pit bikes and much more.
