On the minipocketrockets website their is The X18-R Nitro Super Bike". It sais the "R" stands for race edition and seems to be the same as the X18 but revised and better. minipocketrockets is the only website that i've seen that has them so i'm a little curious if this is better than the X18 or just a cheaper made model with worse parts. The website is selling it for $599 plus $57.82 shipping and handling. Im wondering how this bike compares to the regular X18. Any opinions or thoughts? :cool:

I think that is just the websites way to make people buy more of there bikes i think it is BS like the R32 intercepter is the GS57 or X15 i think they actually make them worse by putting crappy parts on them then selling them for less saying they are "better" than the original bike but anyone correct me if i am wrong.

Getting random stuff makes you spend a lot of money but not get any performance out of it. The best thing is to figure out a plan on what you want done to the bike when you have done all that you want and then start working towards that goal. There are a lot of parts out there that are great but will work like crap unless you use them with parts that work well with it. For example: a 20mm carb is probably the best on a relatively stock bike but slightly modified bikes like to run a 22mm and big bore and big cam 110s like a 24mm and even a 26mm. So, it would be a bad idea to blow your money on a 20mm carb right now when you will replace it down the road when you do other work. Let us know what your bike will have on it when you are done and we will help steer you in the right order of getting parts to get to that level.

no there is no socket. what i did was i bought a trickle charger that has an adapter that hooks up to the battery. but even if you ride it fro lengths of time if the battery wasnt fully charged it will still kill it. dont know why but it wont charge fully by just runnin it. i ran mine for hours on end. but the electric start takes so much of the juice it doesnt help unless you fully charge it first. if you want i can take a pic of the adapter and post it so you see what i did.
