- Joy Benedict reports from Watts on the culture and craze over illegal mini bikes, many built in home garages, a hobby that police say is particularly dangerous when large groups stage street takeovers, performing stunts and racing.
I'm far more afraid of the pill popping wine drinking soccer mom's driving huge SUV'S than a little minibikes with a loud muffler.
Haha lol, thank you
Leave them alone. They’re probably getting like 200 mpg. That’s 4 times better than a Prius. It doesn’t get much more eco friendly than that.
Closer to 90mph
It’s not dangerous you just got to know how to ride safely
Facts
Exactly. I ride my doodlebug mini bike on my streets all the time and never have any problems with the cops or public cause I ride safe. They know me and don't care when they see me riding
"troubling scene" "big problem" "scary", this is a safe hobby that brings people together
It’s not safe when you’re riding them on public streets.
Not on the streets. Big trucks may not see them.
@@mikefigures5075 it’s fun
@@saab-xq8lc they don't ride they would never understand how fun it is to ride something so small yet so fast
@@nelsonta00 bro theres 200 of them
Yea baby! Rather watch these guys then the Oscars…go boys!
Thankyou
I agree 100%. Fuck the Oscars
Glad the spirit is still evolving 😋 got my first one in 1974 👴I gave it to my Nephew...
Who gave it to his Nephew ✌️👍♥️
“Young people don’t go outside”
“Young people are dangerous when they are outside”
It's safer than racing cars !! We used to go to the street races on Wednesday nights after cruising Van nuys boulevard .
No problem with them having fun but don’t block the streets people got places to be!
Part of the fun for them is ganging up and causing problems for others with a "What are you going to do about it?" attitude.
They don’t give a shit about you or others when they are in a pack
@@theotheleo6830just childish. people already have so little control over their daily lives. grow up and you will realize that.
You got places for people to legally shoot up dope but you can't alligator and area for people to ride dirt bikes smh 🙄
Democrat policies summed up right there
It makes a lot of sense now because of the increasing price of gas I want one to work for door dash
Saaaaaame
Keep the kids busy building stuff and open them up a 1/8th mike track or concrete lot! Kids with nothing to do are kids that end up statistics. Give them the choice to do the right thing before bashing them and then and only then deal with any problems that come up.
put lights, blinkers, mirrors and horn on them and register them as mopeds. growing up in iowa in 90s they were street legal if had all that stuff. had to have orange triangle flag 5 feet off ground on back too and get a plate.
If you register it it, you are making a contract with the corporations. The fact that they are not registered makes them unlien able. It's so sad u guys love your peasntry. I honestly am starting to think that bill Gates is doing god's work by depopulating all of you.
Not any more. Liberal regulations have made it so anything on the roads has to have all DOT rated tires, brakes, lights, horn, and more. Big business spends billions to make it harder for anyone to compete even things you build at home. They want you to have to buy everything not make it.
Were accidents and stuff with them a massive problem back then? Actually curious.
@@HappyHappy-sq4ij back then they were not modified to go 100mph and the kids riding them were small town and country kids. They were not legal. Some cops let it slide. These people are not just sneaking down a few blocks to a friend's house they are on the highway doing stupid shit. The kid interviewed saying they are not doing anything illegal. Well yes you are. All of what the video shows is. I guess they should be calling the illegal rides BLM protests because liberals let you do anything then. Wear a dress and have a Trans rider protest. It is all good in California.
@@sycodad4483 if you have to buy it you can still make it your own/ personalize it to your taste
And things like this is why I think we should have places/parks for people to ride their mini motorcycle bikes or do some drag racing with cars. There's plenty of off-road places but not for street cars. How hard is it for someone to have that idea?
Its been discussed in the community for years, reality is that it cost too much to do.
And when doing it in parking lots is tried the cops not only shut it down but treat the boys far more like they're villains than if they do it in the public road where cops have to see a specific law get broken and can't just yell "trespassing" as they'll 99% of the time do when the boys get together in a parking lot or park
Omg such a scary scene lol bunch of grown men on mini bikes
So many people with all the answers yet never sat their ass on one! Lol Minibikes ftw 💪🏼💯 if u ain't a part of it u should be 😎
They missing out on all the fun 😂💯
Facts
With all the chaos in the world, minibike madness is a refreshing change...👍👍👍
They have always been illegal on the roads , this is not new ... I had one , and if I rode it it would be a quick ride around my neighborhood then I would put it away .. I never went on the main streets .. I see a lot of people riding these now every where without helmets 😕😕 Please if you ride wear a helmet ..
I will continue to pass that message along
The minibikes yes but helmets aren't required in CA. I encourage others to gear up and never go out without a helmet, but this is not China and nanny state should not enforce safety laws that's not affecting others safety. Waste of time and resources, go spend that energy on catching killers. Plus plenty times cops can just use it as an excuse to power trip, just like the "I smell weed" claims just to search you back when weed was illegal
I see them hanging out at Santa Monica all the time.They we’re respectful.
I witnessed a boy die on one of those pocket bikes. He was riding in a residential area near my old friends house and he was going at full speed and lost control and ran directly into a parked car. He died before getting to the hospital.
What does that have to do with this? That just means the parents didn't teach the child how to ride.
@@tslim250 That means they can be dangerous.
@@tslim250 minibikes are fun but not safe for the big streets that why theres alot of young riders dead,that includes my cousin who recently passed away in MiniBike accident out in SCLA
yeah just wait till the kids get their hands on the new electric 2k watt bikes. fkn instant torque and 45mph top speed in 2 seconds flat. and that's the tame ones. What parents and elders need to teach is safe riding! Helmet, pads, and skid resistant clothing amongst other riding gear.
@@theotheleo6830 Cars and everything in the world are dangerous. Just need to learn how to be careful.
I had a Sears minibike…back in the day. Rode it in a field. Unless you can outrun the cops..
Well fun to ride, but you guys shutting down the streets , don't block and effect traffic.
It's only a black Thang.. FACT!
@@JOHNSMITH-dc6lr 🤣🤣but it’s whites, black Asian, Mexican so what’s the problem BOY?
@@RoyalJZ naw.. We have eyes son.. Plus u only c this ghetto shit in ingelwood, compton, South Central, u no where cops never site anymore like double parked cars lol
@@JOHNSMITH-dc6lr wrong people from paramount, Downey, Lakewood, Anaheim, etc you not looking in the right place but you’ll see us in the nice neighborhood soon. I’ll make sure everyone have a loud exhaust don’t want to be to ghetto😊
@@RoyalJZ yea ALL ghetto cities, watch out for snipers
These riders: we want drivers to share the road.
Also then: “riding n the double yellow and against traffic, closing streets to race and do stunts.
Those bikes aren’t legal. They wanna share the road. They need headlights, tail lights, turn signals. Plates. Follow traffic laws and there, people will hate the road. The Engines are too small so they won’t need a M1 license.
Nah, weve had enough of being targetted. even when you do the police will do arrests and impound the bikes, even if you add all the "legal" extortion methods. These bikes are so small that the mirrors and lights don't do shit, its just a way to legally detain and steal peoples stuff.
Wrong actually you do need a license anything that's higher than 49cc considers you to have a license and considers a bike a motorcycle and even if you put lights on it reflectors on it you still wouldn't Pass the laws you think you're going to really be able to pull up to the DMV with that and register it nah u cant
Unlawful assembly. Recall Gascon.
Maybe the country should open more tracks so these racers can ride and race them legally
We have been trying for years
@@inthelifewithdaedae I definitely hear you ! We race at Irwindale ca on thurs nights and if the powers to be dont want street racing then this all falls on them . Just like you have off road vehicles spots for family events , there's plenty of spaces they can designate for these activities , i used to cruise Whittier blvd back in the 80s then they shut it all down , this is another reason shit gets all messed up, what harm is there is cruising your car ?
@@mandingo9471 yeah i hear that!!!!! but the prob with
thatt cuz is the po po will eventually fuck up that program, we use to do that mini bike racing back in the 80's on Broadway st in Anaheim at 12 midnight , infact i had a mini bike with a ACE HODAKA 100 ENGINE ON IT it was so fast that the frame couldn't handle the speed! Its all fun untill the police start writing tickets , this is why we stopped and then got into hot rods and started racing them at the track
Wasn’t there such a thing as “disturbing the peace”? Is that gone?
That’s all gone! Nobody has respect nowadays
@@swift9724 But wasn’t that a law?
Has there ever really been peace ?
Or are you living the alternate life you weren't supposed to have?
That dancing baby on the computer screen has grown into a adult and changed your life..is there any real peace?
The influence of the unlimited knowledge actually cause this rift in the actual peace of all mankind.
Ever since the world took a bite into the apple they obtained the knowledge of the tree of life.
Metaphoric symbolism and occult sorcery is disturbing the peace too..how come no one says anything about that?
I bet you had no idea in the USA in 2018, 560 innocent people lost their lives due to 212,500 vehicle fires. All those fires highly disturbed the peace. But somehow these corporate car companies never had to deal with MSM narrative backlash🤯Killed over 1.5 people a day for a year straight but not a peep from the MSM. It's almost like they don't really care about saving a life, but rather patrolling the individual🧐
@@AuRowe 🙏🏻
Me and the boys *not givin a shit*
All the youth need to take it to the city and make it known that these mini bikes are the way of life for the harsh environments we live in. Make the roads and laws change but respectfully let the council know.
They should be legal regardless we pay for our roads
“Takeovers” look like the least amount of fun you could have with a vehicle.
I remember some dude in a mini bike somewhat near my place got ran over by a F-150 because he was way below visibility.
Safety isn’t the only concern. Life. A life worth living means freedom to take risks.
First good comment I seen.
Bit of a difference between risks and breaking the law. Just saying.
@@AZ-ne9kf so you would swear by affidavit that penal codes are law?
No need to stop traffic. There must be a parking lot somewhere that they can use. Shoot---Dodger Stadium has that huge empty parking lot most days, they should open that up for these kinds of things.
nope, that would be "private property" and they will get escorted out of there as well. Face it, there is nowhere in the cities for people to go to enjoy themselves for free because the city doesn't want you to be happy or have free places to operate.
I live in bixby knolls and I used to have my mini bike straight piped, now I got a muffler on it so it’s quite. I also got lights on my bike and follow the law best I can, never got in trouble. Bike on!!!!!
Mini bikes are not the issue here. The issue is the illegal and dangerous street take-overs!
HUGE FAN....LOVE THESE GUYS ....WAY T6O GO BRO'S.....KEEP IT UP ILOVEIT
Thankyou I appreciate the support‼️
💯💯💯
Its not the bikes, its those "people" that are riding them.
And that they make noise. Leftists love the helmetless kids in SAMO and Malibu hauling at 70mph on e scooters. SaVinG tHe pLaNEt they claim. MSM is the real pandemic
Video shows perfect example of why people complain. Riders on other side of yellow line. Driving down wrong side of street.
Exactly ! Lmao and then he said “we try to ride as safe as possible “ lies! they don’t even wear helmets and they block both if not all lanes of traffic!!🤣🤣
Are they running out of real news to talk about ? 😂😂😂😂😂
iwas feeling thatgreen laser on that drifer
These MiniBike kept me out of trouble, i been to those races out in Compton all they wanna do is ride and race minibikes the safe way
So you can ride a Surron, Talaria or Super 76 on the street, no plates lighs or insurance but gas mini bikes are outlawed. This is crazy.
Where can I buy one?
Amazon, Tractor supply, Big R, Walmart website etc
If they want to share the road with vehicles. Anyone driving these "Mini Bikes" need to follow the law. Most of the people riding these things don't have helmets and lights. It's scary, hearing them and not knowing where there coming from. They need to be held to the same standards as motorcycles. Helmets, Lights, Registrations, Turn Signals. Most people riding these don't have Driver Licenses. They should not be allowed on the street. Just my 2 cents
Bruh most of your own citizens dont follow the law. Or that 12 year old shot and killed in a drive by a few hours ago legal?
@@aoife984 pre-crime. How can anyone really sue each other when the dollar is a IOU receipt? Why do people think they know it all? Why isn't anyone monitoring bill Gates and his fake meat production line? Why does it seem like men are neutered like all the dogs walking around? Why does everyone want to be safe? Where's is the reward to the risk in safety?
Bruh forget all that, mini bikes explode. It's illegal wtf
@@ka7126 and in 2018 alone there were 212,500 REPORTED vehicle fires resulting in 560 deaths. Wake up to the delusion. Plus helmets aren't even required in CA.
I don't care when you see grown ass people on tiny f****** bikes, life is good.
To slow for the road 💀😭
Lol
and this is not new , we grew up doing this since the 90s.
If it keeps you out of trouble, you still have to obey the rules, remember it's a privilege not a right.
Driving is a privilege but traveling is a right
@@h_3_x_ moa and the Bolsheviks would be proud of that lady. She loves her privileges and the shiny chains it comes with..
@@h_3_x_ traveling on a public road in a vehicle is a privilege. That sovereign bullshit is stupid
@@vinceruland9236 let me ask u something, are u against the freedom to travel?
@@h_3_x_ absolutely not. However, there are rules for traveling on publicly funded and state funded roads. Those rules need to be followed. It's really quite simple
theres nothing wrong with liking, building, and riding bikes.
the problem begins when you gather in the middle of the street and block traffic trying to look cool cause nobody at home pays attention to you.
Private road don’t be mad
They’re not insured
Nor do some of them probably even have driver licenses.
So gold and silver is money. The dollar was a silver certificate. But in 1933 the dollar became a federal reserve note which is like a mortgage note. When you get the dollars now it's a negative ledger it can buy you things but it doesn't hold real value. Especially with them printing so much of it. So insurance is a scam. They are giving you debt notes not real money. It's really sad the public is not aware of finance. It's really easy to p1mp y'all.
@@bayareaprepper yeah, it may be wise to diversify in things other than just dollars. But insurance isn’t in itself a scam. People don’t run around today going to the store paying with silver or gold. People use dollars for absolutely everything. Insurance mainly car insurance because it is applicable here covers a portion of the cost if you end up getting in a crash and provides a sense of assurance that the possible victim is provided with sufficient funds for damages. Insurance company’s also deal with a lot of the legal end of things. Insurance company’s are basically betting on people to give them money and not get into crashes and have to pay money due to that. And anyways the dollar not being backed by gold and silver anymore although unfortunate. Doesn’t give any argument to insurance being a scam let alone vehicle insurance being required by law. The reality of things is that people don’t use gold and silver on a regular basis and use dollars instead for their everyday life.
@@AZ-ne9kf because it was stolen and you were ensl8ved. Lol . A citizen is a sl8ve. You are the cattle on collateral for the federal reserve notes the fake politicians and police department get paid off of. You are the victim that loves their victimhood. What are you going to do about it?
City government should make a compromise. Its things like this that can keep kids out of real trouble
On the upside, the interest in minibikes reduces congestion, mini ebikes are not emitting exhaust fumes etc....
These home made contraptions need to evolve into a real industry.
Manufacturing = Essential
Entrepreneurship = Essential
How do you figure they don't emitt exhaust fumes? They burn fuel don't they?
@@elbolillo2703 200 MPG+... Prius gets like 45-50. It's essentially just a gas generator that powers them
One of the biggest draws to this, is the fact you can build these at home. That part of it is difficult for outsiders to understand.
Somebody who starts a mini bike track could make some big bucks.
@@mandingo9471 u IOU I llulut
BUT ALL THE KIDS OF EUROPEAN DECENT ON ELECTRIC BIKES SPEEDING ON THE BEACH, BY THE BEACH AND WHEREVER WITH IMPUNITY. UMM HMMM. GUESS BECAUSE THEY ARE ELECTRIC BIKES ITS OKAY. HAHA😎🎭✌
Exactly, or the 560 people that died in vehicle fires in the USA in 2018 alone. They just want to remove whatever they don't like with nanny state big govt powers by convincing the citizens it's "for safety" just like Germans in WW2. Remember during Covid MSM never went over the fact kids literally never died from it unless obese. But they never encourage us to be more fearful if we're obsess because apparently that's insensitive even though Covid literally killed way more obese people than skinny people. It was this one angled lens of "bow down to the altar of el jabbo or no concerts and restaurants for you". These lawmakers and the people pushing their narrative are evil to the core
I want one!
To slow for the streets she says and dude says we get ‘em up to 100mph how does that make sense wtf
these guys drive by my apartment every night and the noise is maddening. really wish they'd use an electric motor instead. those lawn mower motors are way too loud and make it hard to sleep sometimes.
how much
“Scary scene”🤣🤣🤣
If they're on the road as motor vehicles, they need to be DMV registered.
looks like fun to me
You can't see them at night, one rode right in front of my car from bike lane and I came within inches of hitting him and I was doing 40mph...
Damn mini bikes the worst thing to be on the streets 😂😂😂
Seems to me the city needs a bike park
😆 🤣 😂 this shit ain't no culture shit in LA u tripping
@@Th3boxer wow i bet it’s a privilege being from the hood.🤣🤣
@@Th3boxer being from the hood is not something to be proud of it . Be proud when you get out from the hood .
He said, "These bikes kept me out of trouble."
Yet, he's illegally riding them in the streets, causing trouble.
he grew up in compton. There's much worse stuff you could get caught up in.
@@garrison2574 where does that stop? Oh, your robbin stores,, yea, there's worse stuff you could get caught up in.
Sideshow at Newcombs Ranch. I get it this is a hobby that keeps the kids out of gangs but they need to follow the law and do this in a safe manner off road or at a private track and sign waivers knowing they are putting themselves in danger, also need to take safety precautions like wearing a helmet and maybe elbow pads as well and not go 100 mph.
These activities do not keep people out of gangs. There have been MULTIPLE gang related shootings at takeovers in Compton, South LA, Paramount, South Gate and other cities. They are dangerous and illegal.
@@ropeysubstance1719 we a not apart of the car takeover!
@@RoyalJZ You're even worse than the street takeover crowd. Minibikes are illegal and dangerous. Everyone who drives them don't even follow street laws.
im from da midwest, so i literally just found out about this 50 seconds ago on tiktok 😭 didn't ono this was a thing
Bruh tell me how tf is a mini bike scary
too slow for the road? they just said they go 100 mph.
Taking over streets is staying out of trouble? Yea right dude.
Paradox
Welp better then people robbing you 😘
You sound bothered lol
@@mandingo9471 do you proof? Or just talking to talk
They're barely illegal (over 150 cc in CA with blinkers headlights horn can get registration to ride on the freeway). I bet you had no idea in the USA in 2018, 560 innocent people lost their lives due to 212,500 vehicle fires. Guess what, those fires mostly blocked the roads and cause trouble(and killed 560 Americans in just 2018 alone).. But somehow these corporate car companies never had to deal with MSM narrative backlash🤯almost like they don't really care about saving a life, but rather patrolling the individual🧐
I remember last year and this year already two accidents with young kids.
That's the parents fault and has nothing to do with grown adults enjoying themselves
And in 2018 in the US alone there were 560 deaths from 212,500 on record vehicle fires. "Anything to save a life" is a corporatist big govt lie to empower the corrupt lawyers running the show. Nothing to do with actually saving lives, but giving the state MORE POWER....
@@tslim250 exactly, these propagandists just want to blame the govt for not being big enough but when you throw the stat that 560 people died in the USA in 2018 from 212,500 vehicle fires, they just act like "well, things happen". They are evil big state worshippers that are being trained by MSM fear mongering to send anyone who disagrees with the MSMs narrative to a camp as an undesirable
To slow for the streets???? No way
Oh no, what a nightmare 🤡
Omg the ambiance of the fire trucks cops helicopter are too loud for the mini bikes.
Leave them alone.....
Too slow for the streets? That guy can make them go 100 mph.. I mean how fast do they need to go? My car doesn’t even go 100 mph and I do just fine in LA.
"Dangerous and troubling new trend!" "Angelinos are concerned and troubled!"
And how DID these "troubled" Angelinos and their families vote during the mayoral, gubernatorial, and presidential elections? Whom did they elect as their representatives in congress and senate? And whom did they elect as their DA? And how's that voting record working out for them now? Are they better off now? Or are they worse off now? Meanwhile, enjoy the fruits of your own voting record. I know I am!!!

I'd rather hear from kids in LA than hear about the violence that the media portrays. They cut all these mfs short on their interviews and they deserved to get their word out. Minibikes are an alternative to drugs, gang violence, group violence, depression and falling into the same old habits we all call our vices. These bikes bring out the most creative and inspired people in cities just like this, and YALL HAVENT GIVEN THEM A PLACE TO RIDE SO WHAT REALLY IS THE PROBLEM
