the freewheel adapter will cost you another $75+ on top of that $30.
Try on top of $44.24 (think shipping). I'm thinking about going from a cruiser to a multi speed bike (4th build 2 engines) so I can mount a jackshaft kit. I'm reading thread after thread about how good they are, not only for a choice of gears but to cut the RPM's on the engine down thus a prolonged life...hopefully. Although there might be a problem there. As, I ride it at the moment, I'm riding just above the power band (the point that the engine smooths out), and well you will understand reading my requirements
Looking at the 3 kits that SBP has, I eliminated the top model (actual product is the same as the mid priced except for tools), as I don't need any tools.
In a quandary as to which one to get of the remaining two. Here is my requirements.... I have a 80cc standard clutch engine. I weigh 210#, I don't ride the bike as constant transportation (it's a toy). I live in Birmingham, AL and hills won't be a factor as my present set-up does quite well all things considering. I don't horse around ie dog the c*ap out of it. And MOST of all I'm
not looking for speed (this is where my concern as to the power band is) as my present set-up hoofs along FASTER then I really want to go on a bicycle. I've had enough mishaps in the past 62 years, I don't need to add another one, besides it's taking longer then it used to heal this well used and abused body
.
Would the $159.00 (bottom line) kit serve my purpose or should I really upgrade. Would like to hear from those that have/has the bottom of the line kit and hear as to how they are holding up for you. I want something that will be good for sometime even tho the engines are and c*ap out....I don't have a problem replacing a engine every now and then.
Why I ever got into these motored bikes is beyond me....but they are sure fun.
