Hello my name is Levi98, I'm from Tucson, Arizona. I have a Skyhawk 2-cycle 66cc engine. I am wondering if anyone can give me some advice for the care and maintenance of the engine. Thank you

Would I be able to pedal long distance still?

Yes.

But the weight of the engine and kit plus the friction of the engine drive line will discourage you. I doubt if anyone rides their MB the way they ride their pedal bicycle.

I live on a 6 mile dirt road, and was wondering if my Skyhawk 2-cycle would be able to take it.

I just had my first ride on the bike, runs great and sounds awesome. I tried the kill switch or in my case the button, and it was a bust. Any one now why?

Did u crimp the wires? Might be a loose connection...Otherwise, it is not a big deal. A working kill switch will probably screw up later and give u trouble
