Well, Hello everyone.
I have been lurking for a few months now and am finally ready to come out of the closet.
I sold my motorcycles a couple of years ago and hate the gas mileage of my chevy astro (wish I still had one of my vw buses). But New England winters dictate that I need 4WD for my family of 5.
I recently bought a motor kit off of craigs list for $100 and a mountain bike for $40. So I am already doing well by the frugal standards.
This is my first build and I have a feeling it will not be my last. In the next couple of days I will build the bike and get it registered (I hope). The only problem is that it is a 66cc engine witch is illegal in NH for "moped" purposes.
I am hoping to peel off the sticker and say it is a 49cc. I could just use some help with some sort of printable manual or something from a 49cc engine to show them that my engine does meet code. I don't need to go fast with this bike, I only need to climb a big 2 mile hill to work every day.
That is it for now, glad to be here,
Thom
