Hello Folks,
I used to ride A LOT--decades ago--without a motor.
Now I'm trying to piece together a commute by regular bike, train, and motored bike. I don't have a motored bike, nor have I ever owned one, but I have ridden one.
So the plan is that the motored bike would get me across the 12-mile, level part of the commute.
How feasible is that distance? Yeah, I CAN do it, but what are the downsides?
Is there a thread that talks about the plusses and minuses of the different types of mounts?
I like the friction roller rear-mount type. Is that one of the better types?
Is the Honda GX35 a good engine? Can 200 lbs of man and bike really do about 30 MPH with a GX35? Can they be made more quiet?
Thank you for the help and the forum.
