Hello, I am 17 years old, a senior in High School, and I'd like to build my first motorized bicycle.
I have 'some' experience with building bikes from when I was younger.
The bike I wanted to use for this build is the Fito Modena GT2 because of the features it includes.

The link just in case. ^
So, I wanted to put a four stroke engine on it and eventually put a shift kit on it so I could utilize the 7 speed goodness.
What kind of engine kit should I get?
What kind of shift kit would pair up with said engine?
What is some general knowledge I should know about this hobby?
I'd like to put lights and turn signals onto the build, how would electricity work?
Could I opt for a better, larger gas tank?
I'd just like for you guys to kind of walk me through this so I don't make a hasty decision or pick the wrong parts.
Anything helps, thank you.
