I'm brand new to the idea of gas motors on bikes, but have over a thousand miles logged on an electic I built. Now I need a project for all my spare parts, and I want a dirt bike, so I have a few questions.
*Who sells them? Best company? Best reputation? cheapest price? Best brand?
*4 stroke VS 2 stroke. Does it matter?
*Is there a list of manufactures someplace?
*Or a comparison chart?
*Is there anything I should be looking for or trying to avoid when searching for a motor?
*Should I hold out for "pull start" or is pedal start good enough?
And a few more specific questions, I've seen the Spookytooth website, and they list 2 motors there of 2 diffrent sizes, but the same price.
*Should I consider them?
*Is this typical of what a kit is, and a price for them?
*What is the power output of these motors? Horsepower? or Watts?
*And finaly, are there any common mistakes n00bs make that I should avoid?
