Default Hi everybody

I'm thinking about getting my first pocket bike and was wondering which one would be a good first bike?

hey welcome!
well it really depends on what you what to do with the bike.
are you looking to race it or just ride on a parking lot ?
if u want to race, i would go with a water cooled bike,
but if u just want to mess around on it, go with an air cooled,
maybe something like the cag, or a euro air cooled bike.
water cooled bikes i don't really no much about, but for first bike, i would go with the china c1/c2 bikes.

Did you just recommened a Euro to a new guy?? And Personnally doesn't matter if he wants to race or screw around start with a cag. I just got a liquid recently and I can't control it I've been riding for now around a year and a bit. Trust me New guy go with a Cag they are cheap and a lot of fun to learn on, once you get better go to liquid if you want. Do not start off with liquid or a Euro.

I'd personally go with an air cooled. They are plenty fast for driving down the road or in a wide open industrial park!
