Help identify this pocketbike please

Can somebody here help me identify this pocketbike thanks? I'm quite new to them and have picked up this little grunter for a starter bike. I've had it started and it appears to run ok. I've had to do some minor adjustments though, tightening nuts and bolts etc, but otherwise it's a stock standard bike I'm told.

Also, what modifications would I need to do to the bike for it to be suitable for dirt track riding if that's possible? I have access to plenty of open space close to home to keep me out of trouble but they're mostly dirt tracks, not bitumen as I've been recommended to ride on. Is riding on dirt recommended at all for this bike?

Thanks in advance...

RD RACING is an unknown quantity at this point
to answer your question; is a road race bike suited to off tar to dirt ect ? what do you think ? does the bike have suspension ? does the bike have grip in the tyres such as nobbies? does the bike have enough clearance incase there is a slight bump in the ground ? so all i can say is again; what do you think.?

I wouldn't take it anywhere near dirt. Not what it was designed for.

Take that to a dirt track and you'll find a nice big crack in the frame.

I suspected it was suitable for bitumen only riding. Thanks for your replies.

Can anybody recommend a good offroad pocketbike suitable for an 8yo to ride and priced under the $300 mark? Our offroad area is quite flat, but it does get dusty at times.

Thats an oz-auction cag. If you want an off-road bike for your 8 year old at around $300 then I would highly recommend a foxico:

this one is $350.00 'buy it now' but if you wait a little while you might get one on auction much cheaper, I picked mine up for about $190 + $45 delivery and my mate got his for $165 + $45.
