Hey guys!
So after a few weeks of looking at mopeds and scooters (the way to go to get around key west) after doing my daily 6 mile across the island commute on bike (one way), I got sick of thinking of spending $600 on something that hardly pushes 30 mph. I love my bike (even named her baby blue), and got this crazy idea of getting a motor and putting it on baby blue. Hence, here I am, ready to get crazy, and start representing motorized bikes among all the scooter madness here in Key West.
first, here's the bike I've got right now. Huffy Women's Deluxe 1 speed cruiser. 26" frame, and 26" by 2.35 stock tires.
I'm thinking adding the GT5 Pro Racer 2 stroke kit. Found here. Along with a backup brake system, just because of the cruiser brakes, and the amount of traffic I'll be with here. Also a nice DOT rated motorcycle helmet, of course.
Anywho, you'll see me around. Any and all advice welcome.
