[5-7HEAVEN]

First you need this engine: http://www.davesmotors.com/s.nl/c.885035/n.1/it.A/id.968/.f


Then this kit: http://www.gopednation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=281927&highlight=G62

Its displacement makes it illegal in AZ.
A happy time is an unknown and unknowable item.
This is marked and stamped.with its size.

Yes, and I run 86cc.

Mine is more noticeable because 43 is up front and the other 43 is on the rear tire.

FWIW, this article came from a goped forum. All gopeds are illegal and much more noticeable on the street.

It's only Illegal if they can catch you!

Gopeds are legal in many states, including mine-California.
Gopeds are my main hobby, and that 62 cc kit is fantastic.

They can be made as quiet as any motorized bicycle.

Sorry captured, I didn't know. It's not legal in my state.

Can you register them and ride on public roads?

I ride on the highway in rush hour traffic. I'm going 38.6mph in a 35mph zone and cars just pass me by.

I couldn't imagine riding the highway on a goped.

Anyway, a couple years ago I considered using this G62 engine. Sadly, not pullstart, flywheel and sheetmetal was available then.

I believe the price has dropped by $50 since then.

Yeah, I saw that they outlawed them in 2003.
In Ca and most states, you do not have to register them,
and they are not allowed on roads over a 25mph limit.

They are so much fun, but no highways for sure.
I just take back roads and they are perfect for it.
I even pull a trailer sometimes.....

The G62 had a conversion kit for a long time by Trevor Simpson.
You used the flywheel and fancover/pullstarter from a Zenoah G43l.

You want to know an incredible motor that would work great with a MB?
Look up the Radne Raket 120cc. Swedish motor.
Very light weight, pull start, 15hp.
I have a scooter with it, and it is super incredible.

I have one on this Danny Boy scooter of mine.
It's very quiet and very very fast.

Will it fit on rack-mount friction drive?

What size is the shaft and clutch?

Maybe a Honda x50 clutch setup would work?
