Ever wonder just how fast you get your favorite Hot Wheels car to go? Or how speedy you are on your own bike? You don't need to be pulled over by a cop to find out. The Hot Wheels Radar Gun does the job for you, using all sorts of state-of-the-art technology. Just set the scale to 1/64th or real speed, and MPH or KPH, aim the gun at objects coming toward you or moving away, squeeze the trigger, and check out the digital readout. Simple as that! Now you can set new speed goals, and actually find out if you've attained them. The 1/64th scale speed reflects the fact that Hot Wheels cars are 1/64th the size of a real car. So if a Hot Wheels car goes 10 MPH, the calculation is 10 MPH X 64 = 640 MPH! Now we begin to understand why those wheels are so hot!

Some of the most favored vehicles are motorcycles, motor cross bikes, and dirt bikes. These type of bikes are widely used for recreational activities, radical sports riding, and various other outdoor motor sports. There are a wide selection of motocross bikes and motor cycles on today's market. Some of the most well known brands of motor cycles include Harley Davidson, Suzuki, and Yamaha. Kawasaki is another highly rated brand of motor cycle that is known for quality and style. While they have been producing top of the line motor cycles for many years, Kawasaki continues their time honored tradition of quality with their line of Motocross 125 motor cycles and bikes
Manufactured and released in 1974, the dual stroke KX motocross bike by Kawasaki has helped many riders to win motor cross championships sponsored by the AMA. Due to the release of an upgraded model called the KX450F, the dual stroke motocross 125 is not sold in America. The Kawasaki KX450F is ideal for open mini cycle and 100cc motor cross divisions. Compared to the Kawasaki KX, the new upgraded KX450F features larger wheels, and a longer level suspension.
The features of Kawasaki motocross bikes have greatly improved over the years. Made with a dual stroke, water cooled engine, these bikes can reach a speed of sixty three miles per hour, with the power of a 125 cc 2t engine. Other features include a one cylinder engine, digital ignition, six speed manual transmission, liquid cooling and standard sized Bridgestone tires. The height of the seat is nearly thirty four and a half inches, and the tank holds almost a gallon and a half of fuel.
A variety of improvements have been made on the wheels, engine, and the bikes overall construction. The KX motocross 125 can still be purchased in certain areas, but most bikers prefer the latest models with the most advanced features. According to those who evaluate motocross bikes, the KX 125 motocross bike by Kawasaki was given a rating of seven out of ten by the riders that were reviewed. This makes the 125 by Kawasaki a fairly good bike, it can not be characterized as the best, but quality manufacturing makes it a highly sought after motocross bike for extreme outdoor sports. The advanced features and advantages presented by Kawasaki's KX motocross 125 bike makes it a great choice for long time bike riders, as well as for those who may be buying their first motocross bike.

The Fixed Gear Bike Brake Issue
As some of you riders know, there's a big to do going on about riding fixed gears without brakes. And there are people on both sides of the fence with valid arguments. But when you boil down the arguments, strip away to faux reasoning and BS responses, you'll find that the debate is this:
STYLE vs. SAFETY
STYLE
Believe it or not, but in the fixed gear bike community, a brake is basically a biker no no. If you have a brake on your bike, you're basically saying:
"I have a fixed gear bike but don't know how to control it. So I need a brake because I'm lame and a poser."
This comment, in a way, holds true. The mere fact that common, everyday trendy kids are riding bikes made for racing (but NOT racing them in formal competition) is kind of ironic is, at its core, ironic. True, a fixed gear is more efficient from a physics standpoint; however, how efficient does your transportation need to be to ride 3 blocks down to the liquor store to pick up a handy case of PBR? That argument aside, adding a brake into the irony of riding a fixie just muddies the purity of riding and owning a fixed gear. That's because if you're going to go fixed, you better know how to ride fixed. This means knowing how to use the technology of a fixed bike to its full advantage. A brake is basically a training wheel - a crutch. When you have a fixed gear bike, the mere technology allows you to stop without one. A non-fixed bike doesn't have this luxury. It NEEDS a brake to stop in any manner. But we're not talking about non fixies.
So a brake, since it's basically a training wheel, is in no way fashionable. It's a sign of weakness - and who wants to look weak? There are safety advantages to having a brake on fixed gear bikes, but it's not a necessity to stop. However, combining a fixed gear bike with a brake does make it much easier to stop
SAFETY
The style of brakeless fixed gear bikes is one that should be simple to understand. But, the safety argument for HAVING A BRAKE is also a simple one to comprehend. Although you don't need a brake with a fixed gear to stop, a brake does make stopping that much easier. And since with fixies, you tend to go faster than with a heavy beach cruiser or multi-speed bike, additional braking assistance is a plus. As was mentioned previously, you don't need a brake to stop a fixed gear, but you do need to know how to use the fixie to stop properly. The one thing that is very difficult to do is stop quickly with a fixed gear. Typically if you're riding at a moderate speed and plan your stopping, you can stop easily without a brake. However, if you're hauling some butt and a car pulls out in front of you a few feet away (i.e. you have time to stop, but not that much time), having a brake can definitely help you from ending up rolling over a hood.
CONCLUSION
So as you can see, both arguments have their points. There are some innate style factors that come with not having a brake, and there are definitely some added safety features to having one. So what's the answer? Do we hand out fixed gear bike licenses and test riders before they are allowed to ride one around town? We all know that as more people find out about fixed gears, the more uninformed riders are flooding the streets, meaning they probably don't know how to properly ride one but they want to be stylish as possible - which means they won't have brakes and will probably plow into you, your car, or a wall as they rocket down a hill. So unless licensing becomes a reality (or some sort of fixed gear testing), the style vs. safety argument will rage on (and both sides will have valid points).

FIXED GEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've never bought a fixed gear bike from the e-bay site because either the description of the bike is so vague that I am unsure as to what I am buying. Some even seem to have 'suicide' hubs, or they are so overpriced that they are a joke.
O.k. so if they were selling a genuine Reg Harris Raleigh, that could be authenticated, then I might be interested.
When you can buy a hand built, made to order fixed gear bike direct from the manufacturer / designer for about £400, or a 26 inch wheeled flip flop fixed gear from Edinburgh Bike Co-op for less than £300, why bother with e-bay.
Another thing, how can a saddle be described as best suited for fixed gear? Yet another rip off?
