I would actually love a pocket bike. Seriously, those things look like so much fun, and they'd be great for getting across campus and stuff.

Practically any bike can be forced into a wheelie of handled right.
Pretty much all of them will do a standing burnout.  You can do it on a scooter if you hold the front brake and lean into the bar.
If you want to see the original stunters, watch the observed trials guys rear wheeling it over a 5 foot diameter log with 8HP.

I haven't had any trouble with the GS passing at highway speeds.  Click a gear and roll the throttle.

I have a 70cc Honda scooter. It's an auto-manual, so it has gears but no clutch. It tops out at 40 and has a menacing 4 HP or so at the wheel. I can ride wheelies on that and have the pictures (and bruises) to prove it. Trust me, there is plenty of power in the GS to ride under normal conditions.
