Do any of you use a pit bike?

Since I'm one of the event organizers/setup/tear down guys, I can blow through a 16g tank of diesel in a day just driving around the track, working corners, cones, etc.

I'm looking for #1: comments #2: suggestions.

#1: Are things like pit bikes 'acceptable' around race events? Please realize that I'm very sheltered at my local track and I'm sure we to tons of non 'PC' things. There are about 20 hard core guys that always race and we are all very comfortable with each other, so small things not directly related to safety tend to slide.

#2: I'm looking for a ~50cc pit bike/moped. Has to be small as I'm limited on space in my trailer.

I'm trying to max out at $1k, $5-700 is my preferred price range. Obviously I'm looking for something used. Street legal doesn't matter.. I don't want to have to pay for Title/Registration/Insurance if I can absolutely avoid it. Track only vehicle.

Does anyone have a small bike like this forsale... maybe to bring to nashville?

Thanks.

Thanks Mark...

I'd love a golf cart / 4 wheeler, but, I just don't have the room. A scooter/dirt bike is already going to take up more room than I think I'd like.

I know to stay away from the Chinese scooter crap.. but, wow! that stuff is *everywhere*.

I think that I've read that 50cc and smaller don't need to be 'registered' in Texas.. they are a powered bicycle or something. That gets me away from insurance as well.

I did look at the Zuma... in fact, there is one for sale in Dallas.

If I do buy new... do dealers charge TT+L for something like that? Tax, sure.. but, Title + license/registration? Any idea?

Thanks for the input.
