Hello from IOWA
I am old retired guy and like working on cars. I saw a few motorized bikes around so thought it would be fun to make one or two. So far my son and I have built 1 for us and 1 for another person. Got another kit coming
First was on a Walmart Thrasher Fixie. Other than getting the mufler bent at a shop it was fairly easy and fun. The other was on a multi speed cruisert that took some McGivering to make engine and tank fit.
Picked up another bike at Walmart that was less than half off due to a few scratches. However i don't think we can use the silver and white Mongoose Detain. Wheel base short..perhaps too much so and low to the ground. Will try.
Favoring a Schwin multi-speed crusier at walmart now...if Detain doesnt work.

Later
Roger

Hate that Image Verifaction. Hard to tell the letters with my old eyes.
 
Hi Dubuque...

Nice toi hear from you. Waiting for the engin kit for my second build. They are addicting.

Howdy Iowa, We're practically neighbors as I'm a old guy in Dubuque.
