This is my 3rd attempt at saying hello. (of course I didn't use any links or what I thought were controversial words). Anyways, after 30 years since owning a bicycle, I recently ordered a new mountain bike (had lots of great reviews) at what I thought was a great price. Also, ordered a bunch of accessories that have now cost more than the actual bicycle.
Then, I came across videos of the belt driven engine mount kit and resisted at first. However, after finding myself getting more interested I decided to just do it- life's too short. So, I ordered the kit with their heavy rear wheel and separately a 2-stroke engine. I had trouble deciding between the quieter 4-stroke engine.
After searching for info on how to make the 2-stroke quieter, I found this website. It looks like there's lots of helpful information here and I'm happy to have found this site.
I should have everything and put together in another week or so. I did find muffler silencer products for my 2-stroke and will likely need to go that route.
So far I'm really having fun with all of this.
(3rd times a charm posting this, I omitted the brand/model name of the engine I ordered and manufacturer name of the engine belt drive kit)
