@ BchCruiser

Your advise is misleading, considering my bike has clocked over 40,000 kilometers on the original frame, wheels and hub components.

I never said anything about hitting the pavement at 45. Any bicycle has the ability to hit 45 without an engine if it's gravity assisted, but the extra engine capacity of the 80cc is beneficial when travelling up hills or towing a loaded bicycle trailer.

How fast the bike travels on flat ground is proportional to how sensible the rider is and how much he or she values his or her life.

You can't legislate against stupidity. The government tries to do so at every opportunity (with a nanny state) and it fails miserably on a daily basis.

40,000km..I never said a bicycle couldn't get that..your engine wouldn't thats for sure..by to much torque..i mean everything related to you engine not your bicycle..the sprocket clutch chain tensioner the chain..bottom line if you like to tinker then get a chain drive..if you like to just to ride get a friction drive..less moving parts less maintenance..all you have to do is read through post on this forum about kits and its pretty obvious which ones are more reliable..theres way more chain drives with problems than friction..thats for sure..
My 26cc gets me up hills were i live..there not really steep..and i dont pull trailers around..i dont think alot of bikers do either..
