Careful of those fenders the brackets are so thin they will crack the first day. I filled the area around the bracket with silicone rubber, dampens the vibration and makes the bracket last. Have fun, Dave
PS: If they wad up in the wheel, you get the picture.

Well I got it running. I jerry rigged alot of things just to get it together real fast for a test run before dark. It seems to be running ok. I only ran it for a few minutes. Tomorrow I will work out all the bugs.

It will look great. There are a couple of frame issues though. Bad welding, curve slightly off for easy mount.Tube is a little thin too. But, It can be done , and yes, it will look great.
Here\'s mine still under construction.

The engine is jet black, but in the photo it looks grey.

That looks awesome, I think the seat and the jet black engine set it off.

Did you paint that yourself or buy it directly like that from someone else??

I will be making my first motorized bicycle using the Moon Dog frame and a 80cc engine from Boysgofast on eBay.

I searched around a lot for the perfect frame. Something that just stood out. I considered cheap frames and expensive frame. But in the end, I just really dug the Moon Dog frame. It will look really neat when I'm zipping down the (side of the) road on my bright orange Kulana Moon Dog.

moon dog

i was looking for a bike for myself after i did one for my grandson. i was looking at walmart too & had trouble deciding on a schwinn or the orange moon dog, the moon dog won out because it was $40 less & had white walls.
i made a front motor mount so i wouldn't have to drill the frame.

ps will send picture if anyone needs it

I have actually gotten a lot of compliments about the Moon Dog since I got it.

Cheap bike or not, it really has a tendency to turn people's heads.
