I really didn't want to make a thread for this but I can't seem to find an answer seeing I have no clue what to search term to use. I see these in a lot of drift event pictures, they seem to be associated with car meets and drift events, those sort of things. Here's a picture, got it of the Risky Devil blog.

Ruckus.

Generically, "pit bike" would be your search term.

But a Ruckus is, IIRC, street legal.

Maybe a little bit. So bad that nala is the butt of jokes nowadays. I googled it already, not that much information on them though. It seems as if they are huge in Cali but not over here on the north east.Who is this Hash fellow, I would like to speak to him, SHOUT OUT FOR HASH!

Only the showy ones with the retard-mode, child-sized handlebars would be uncomfortable. The rest look fine. Seating position looks great...no knees-in-handlebars syndrome, no hunching over, no feet directly under your butt where you can't bend your ankle properly...They're small bikes but they're designed for full-size riders.

That said, I'll stick with my XR500, thanks.
