Why hello Motored Bikes forum members!
I checked out a Honda Ruckus 50cc the other day; it was a blast! It would do 40mph on a flat with me (6'4" 175 lbs) and about 25 uphill. I have never had so much fun on two wheels. (Not that I have much experience with 2 wheeled vehicles.)
I have a few extra bikes laying around, and i had always thought about doing the electric conversion, but with the gas mileage people seem to be getting I just dont see the point! I want something I can tour with if I feel adventurous enough.
I'm going to be trying to figure out what sort of kit I can piece together. I want something reasonably quiet. Road legal doesn't matter to me; none of the cops around here know how to verify the size of your engine!
Perhaps a 80cc+ 4 stroke? Who knows. If any of you have tips I am all ears.
