The only racing in Victoria is run by SWMMC, website link below

southwest minimoto home

Not sure on VPBA, there site has not worked for ages and last I heard they were closing down. Danny on here (pocketracingbikes) holds practice every other Wednesday at Dandy (le mans?)

the other place to ride is South Morang kart track, open most days from 10am $35 for the day.

as for race classes what sort of bike/budget were you thinking?

[adder99]

The above is all i can offer, sorry dont have a bike or know who can sell you a bike for $300. i dont sell bikes or parts.i have posted it here rather than reply to your pm just incase other new members to the site get the wrong idea from rovers post, (due to the few PMs i have got over the last few days and just to clear things up)


ozminimoto or pocketracingbikes are the places for bike sales in melbourne but they dont do much in the way of new china bikes

I think Danny from pocket racing bikes still had access to a couple of new old stock sq blata rep's .

Hi Ktm ..wasn't implying that you sold bikes and parts..more the fact that you would know where he could get a bike from in Victoria and more importantly where he could ride in VIC NEXT TIME I WILL SEND THEM ELSEWHERE.

Rover not getting at you so don't take it that way, just making it clear to people reading the post that I don't have any china bikes or parts for sale. I have received a few pm's from new members asking if I have cheep bikes for sale and just trying to stop it before it starts. the info I gave regarding places to ride is all I know, the only places to buy in Victoria I know of are Darren and Danny.

Perhaps it would be a idea to have a F.A.Q for people new to the sport including where to buy, where to ride ect ect, as the forum had gained a few new members in the last couple of weeks all asking the same questions. if there was a thread to direct them to it could clear the place up instead of having a bunch of the same topic threads

the main problem with this forum is the fact that you cant post any links up on where to buy parts if the company doesn't pay to advertise which i think is ridiculous,the forum owner should stpo thinking of his back pocket & actually try to be part of growing this fine sport
