1) For pocket bikes in Australia, they range between $ 400.00 and $ 1200.00
2) 49cc and 100cc refers to the cubic capacity of the motor. This means that 100 cubic centimeters is the capacity of the engines cylinder.
3) The nearest, cheapest bike shop to you.
4) I wouldn’t bother with a pocket bike, you will be very limited to where you can ride. You would be better of with a mini bike. At least then you could ride off road.
5) No, they are not street legal.
6) No you cannot legally ride on the footpath.

I can answer a few of those for you.
2- cc’s refers to the displacement of the engine. The more cc’s, the bigger the engine. cc’s is specifically cubic centimeters. So if you have a 49cc bike, that means that every revolution of the crankshaft, it displaces 49 cubic centimeters of air.
4- The best kind really depends on your preferences. If you want an off road kind of fun bike, go for a dirt bike with knobbier tires and a bigger engine. If you’re just looking for something fun to play around with, go with whatever is cheapest.
5/6- No, these are not street legal. They don’t have the necessary safety equipment, and you would need a motorcycle license to drive it even if it were street legal. If you live somewhere kind of off the beaten path, you could probably ride back roads to school, but these bikes are not anywhere close to being street legal.

Answer by Firecracker .
I can only answer the last two for you.
I’m not interested in them enough to know the other stuff.
#5: They are not street legal. Mini bikes never were, and most pocket bikes don’t come close.
#6: No you couldn’t ride it to school. You can’t ride on the side walk, and if it’s not street legal you can’t ride it on the street.

They are toys so a couple of hundred new. CC is engine size Toys-R-Us walmart. Pep boys ebay they all have them. There is no best kind they are all toys. Not street legal anywhere read the adds very carefully they do not say they are legal for the street beyond the shadow of a doubt. You can not ride it on the sidewalk anywhere in the USA. And if you could ride on street you will have to be old enough to get a drivers license and insurance
