Now, it isn't really custom...more of a gender bender. it was a Schwinn girls bike and now its an almost usable awesome motorized bike! Like I said, it was a standard girls bike, I cut out the top bar, used a piece of the top bar and stretched the bottom bar 7" (Approximately) and then made a nice curve top bar with a piece of scrap pipe (Beating it against the ground) and then making the motor mounts!
The motor I'm using is a 3 Hp Briggs and Stratton engine I got a few months ago. It was seized, but I was able to bring it back from the dead and it works better than ever!
The drive is going to be a belt-clutch off of the engine going to a torque converter on a jackshaft, then from a sprocket on the jackshaft to a second sprocket mounted on the wheel (Like in the kits). For the wheels I am getting a set with the heavy duty spokes.
Girls bike before...
This is how far it is now. About a month or so into the project.
Take care everyone
